Teams that rested starters Week 2:

Panthers, Seahawks, Saints, Packers, Rams, Broncos, Lions, Colts, Raiders, 49ers, Vikings, Buccs, Titans, Cowboys, Chargers, Eagles, Browns, Bengals, Ravens, Cardinals, Jets = 21 teams

Teams that didn't rest starters Week 2:

Bears, Patriots, Texans, Bills (for one series), Commanders, Chiefs, Dolphins, Steelers, Jaguars, Giants, Falcons = 11 teams

"Most other teams" = 1/3 of the league?  This is what happens when you just mindlessly parrot the talking points you read on the Huddle.

McVay didn't play his starters in the 2nd pre-season game. What does that make him?

McVay hasn't played his starters at all this preseason nor does he ever play his starters in any preseason...including last year when they won the Super Bowl.  Even when they traded for a new quarterback in the offseason who presumably needed the extra reps to gel with his new receiving corps in a real game situation.  Sound familiar??

Sounds real familiar. I pretty sure it wasn't a big deal when McVay did it.

I'm not here bashing Rhule on everything he's ever done or crying because he isn't fired.

 

I wanted a chance to see our starters vs another team's starters.  I'm not getting that.  It's frustrating.    

 

 

I've got some great news for you. In two and a half weeks, you'll get an entire 60 minutes worth for almost 17 consecutive weeks!

I don't think he's a NFL HC, BUT with the NFL experience he gained he'd be a great coach for Michigan.

It would actually be a good swap. Harbaugh for Rhule. Harbaugh belongs back in the NFL. 

He may be a discipline freak but he's also a former long time NFL QB.

Don't you dare wish that on my Wolverines. Send him to Ohio State.

I am critical of Rhule. I don't think he has done everything right. Just because I am not critical of Rhule like you and others are doesn't mean I am not critical of him.

And why do you care if I poo posts lol? If I think someone's post is shitty then I am going to poo it lol

If that's the case I haven't seen it. But if you made it through nine seasons of relentless personal barbs directed at Ron Rivera it's interesting you can't handle two seasons of criticism for Rhule who has yet to identify "his" quarterback capable of leading this team to success.

Remember the absolute rage last year for us "babying" and "bubblewrapping" Sam?

I hope you don't slink away again to a new account if we struggle. You might as well take the good with the bad SBBlue.

Aww.  You have to share, what did SBBlue do to you?  Did he embarrass you?

You're like obsessed with him.  We're you two an item or something?

    • I'm not a Bryce hater and I would 100% move on.  Especially looking at how the upcoming qb draft looks on paper.  Hopefully he continues to improve but if in 3 seasons you're still chasing average season numbers then he's not going to be the guy.  You've just got to keep taking swings until you hit.  Average qbs without any elite physical traits cant get it done anymore.  So this year Hopefully he continues to develop and is above average statistically.
    • Meltdowns???? He was pulled by Canales because he wasn't executing the game plan after 2 games into the season so he could watch Dalton execute the offense and show Bryce the windows available in the NFL, how to push the ball down the field and how to step up and move around when blitzed. When Young came back 5 games later he clearly watched and improved. Enough he was named the future starter. He doesn't have a history of  meltdowns nor is there any reason to assume he will have one. From what I have read he is mentally strong and emotional stable. He may have bad games down the road, everyone does. But this is all a learning experience for him and so far he seems to be making progress. I can understand being hesitant on anything Panthers, but Young has surprisingly been able to gain his confidence after a disastrous start. You aren't alone in being cautious but I think he is the future. I thought he was too small and too short to succeed in the NFL. Honestly I was pleasantly surprised last year and am optimistic about the offense for the first time since Wilks and Dalton were decent.
    • The Rams wanted to trade up for Williams who they ended up within the end. They even told him that when they called him to let him know he is the pick. The other teams are only an assumption. Like the Cowboys, who took a guard. The truth is the team wanted to trade down first and foremost but couldn't get an offer the were happy with. They took McMillan because they felt he was bpa at 8 plain and simple.
