Time for the speculation, the theories and the guessing to be set aside.

Now, we see some real football.

No, every question won't be answered today, but at least we'll have some real results to judge by.

I'm ready.

We'll have our starting point.  Whether good or bad.  I think we'll start with a lot of positives.

IMO, the only question that will be answered today is if we will start the season with a win.  Any other more significant questions won't be answered for a while.  

I want to see a more composed Sam Darnold that plays within the system Brady brought with him.

That and a step up in the defence from last year - they have more tools to work with this.

There are going to be people who will think they know all there is to know based on today's game.

These people...are not very smart.

Football seasons are marathons where numerous things happen, things go right, things go wrong, and it hardly ever looks the same by season's end.

You can hope that most people exercise their wisdom and patience, but you can also pretty much guarantee that a lot of people won't.

So do I, but if it happens (a big if), it might take a while to show some results.  I think the defense (assuming it stays healthy) could look much better in Nov than it does early in the season.

      An honest look at Bryce Young

      By NAS · Posted

      I find it funny those who continue to hate on Bryce based on his rookie year when he had zero weapons or offensive line have a problem with those of us projecting his career from the 8-9 games where he played like a top 10 QB and made more big time throws during that period than any other QB.  The stats may bot have been there in terms of yards or TD passes but that’s coming as the roster improves. For those who think physical traits can overcome roster deficiencies we all witnessed how Mahomes looked under pressure that Bryce faced for most of his rookie year, we saw what happened with Stroud in similar circumstances.  None of us were creating posts proclaiming Bryce as the next Brady but we can’t just sit idly while thread after thread is created continuing with the  anti Bryce tropes  instead of supporting him and just letting him continue to develop.

      To me Bryce's ceiling is his backup, Andy Dalton, in his prime.  Sure, he may get us some winning seasons and may even get us to the playoffs on occasion, but with an early exit.  To me he doesn't have what it takes to be elite and it takes an elite QB to consistently get deep into the playoffs.  He's not Jackson, he's not Mahomes and he's not even Allen.  In an organization like Philly, he possibly could have what it takes to make a deep run, but let's face it...Philly is well oiled machine and and we are a GMC Grimlin.

      If he was he would still be in the league.... Cam never learned to play QB without relying on his athletism and rocket arm.
