The average homeowner is going to get a much better job done a lot quicker with a lot less headaches and might even save money when all is said and done by hiring a pro to do any type of significant project. It's just the truth.

Yep. Did a large renovation of an old biker bar that was being turned into an vacation rental for someone. We did all the demo and structural repair, interior framing, plumbing and electrical, deck builds and siding but he wanted to do the interior finishes (T&G, doors, painting, etc) and trim himself. It's been like 6 months and he's still there working every day that I drive past and if he had just hired us to finish the job completely it would have been finished within a month of additional time.

Also, it looks like pure poo, I swung in to say hello and saw that he had all pre-hung split jamb doors and obviously had no clue how to make extension jambs amongst a myriad of other awful things, I just kind of walked about shaking my head.

      Okay gentlemen, REAL talk...

      By SmokinwithWilly · Posted

      Here's the thing. You compared him to Jake. Jake was signed to the practice squad out of college. Bryce was the number 1 overall. Their expectations are wildly different and so are their contracts. You can talk all you want about what a player is and where they are now and all this other mumbo jumbo, but Jake never had a 5th year option and we weren't talking about the possibility of a top 5 QB contract extension at the end of his 3rd year. What he was expected to be matters because we invested heavily at a cost of future capital, including a 2nd round pick this year, for him to be that guy. The cost to add Bryce took value from the team. To be worth it, he has to add that value back.  Actually, I don't prefer yards, TDs, or only INTs. All those stats by themselves are misleading which is why I said you have to use a lot of different stats. ADOT - Average depth of target.  Completion %. Pretty obvious until you factor in ADOT. 0-5 has a lot higher C% than 10-15%. Hang time. If a pass is in the air for 4.6 seconds vs 3.1 on a 40 yards throw, that gives a DB a lot of time to correct. Is it a loft or is it a laser.  EPA - Expected points added. A way of measuring QB efficiency on every play.  CPOE - ranking pass completions based on several factors, not just the throw.  There's obviously more, but those are the more common.  Typical stats don't show everything. You need to look all over. Looking at a stat line is lazy. That's why I said, you need to analyze everything. Once you start looking at the numbers you start looking at the player. That's why you follow numbers. They lead you places. You look at what happening when the numbers show you patterns. That's where you start finding the problems that yards, TDs and Ints won't show you.

      ESPN guys talk Bryce fifth year option

      It's not relevant who wins or loses. It's about actually attempting to get better at the position.

      Bryce might be the most frustrating player we've ever had.

      Thank you. I don't understand how the Bryce stans don't see this. I've never seen a player get more hyped for doing so little. Honestly it's driving me a little insane.
