I have a very good memory.  I remember when the Jets WR coach had this to say about Sam….couldn’t find the actual video a media guy recorded though, must have been deleted.  In the vid, he really emphasized the naughty word, lol,


 

I've been pleasantly surprised by his accuracy so far - even on some of the splash plays he made for the Jets he was sometimes a little behind the WR.

That throw to Erikson on Thursday night tho...

I think he has had more pin point passes than "bad" throws and it isn't even close.

I want to see Fitterer and Co. figure out how to fix our O-Line this year without giving up our 1st or 3rd this year. 

If that happens I think we can remain in the playoff conversation the rest of the season.

We're not fixing our line this year, that much is obvious.  That was never part of the plan.  We drafted a couple guys who we hope will contribute there by the end of the year.  I expect us to invest in the OL in the coming offseason.

But we ain't fixing it this year.  And that's fine.  This is what a true rebuild looks like.  Three wins and everyone thinks we're a contender.  We're not.  We might make the playoffs this year if the stars align, but we aren't a contender . . . yet.

Next year our salary cap hell officially ends.  We have picks in every round but the second.  Next year I do expect us to produce a playoff team.  Whatever happens this year is icing.

No fixing this year.

 

but I see us working heavy on online on FA and draft next year.

our draft should be OL and a couple spots on D

      That's not totally the case. It is hard to discuss future without a crystal ball, you look at the past the to assess and project, and there is a lot of on field negative from year one. Some people say throw it out. You can’t dismiss things that were on him and not the OL or Reich or Chark or Mingo etc., if you want the real story.  Only Young can tell where that goes and everybody just has to wait for real football. That footwork is not just people picking on him, it is probably a huge barrier to his potential success. All the passing comes from a base and if it off the throws are hard to trust.  OTA optimism is fools gold tbh. We have seen the skins and shirts all stars enough times to know what that is. We will need real football at real football game speed which we won’t get even in preseason.  That said I expect him to somehow make his way to somewhere in QB tiers or rankings to maybe low 20s. Gotta win 6 at least for that.  My opinion is if they can make a playoff run with a 4th tier QB then fine but I’d just as soon go over to the side of those who for years held out for a QB capable of talking to and winning a SB. I am not thinking he is that guy so far but taking this year to find out is necessary.

      Good lawd, look at the amount of rotation required for a mere 40-yard pass. No wonder he needs a runway for any throw beyond 50 yards.  Can you think of any NFL quarterback today who has a weaker arm than Bryce? For reference, with a similar amount of hip rotation, Stroud slung the ball 69 yards. https://x.com/VatorSports/status/1728845724434186374

      I think the issue is there isn't any more of these posters still active on this site.  Everyone I see posting now either doesn't like Bryce or wants to see him in a better situation to make a better assessment.  I think everyone agrees he has work to do in order to show us he can become the QB we need him to.  Who knows if he will or if he can, but there are definitely other conversations to be had without being stuck on repeat and every thread turning into the same one.  It sounds like you need to find the Bryce Fan Boys from before the draft and just vent/hash it all out with them somewhere.
