No rotation. Fox gave the biggest liability on defense his job back......despite Martin being the clear cut best man for the job.

Reason 34: Why Fox doesn't know what he is doing.

If Jake is 80% this week he will get his job back also and he and Godfrey will both make sure we get STOMPED next week.......and NE is beatable if we played a good game.

You should change your handle to WPS. Worse Possible Scenario.

With the new rules that went into effect TODAY. Martin was not allowed to go back into the game if he showed ANY signs of concussion. No matter what he said. If he did in fact suffer a concusion then you will be right about Godfrey next week because Martin will be forced to sit out another week, regardless.

it is called reality....and some people like to pretend Fox's decisions are right.

Godfrey got the job back. Martin was a backup and special teams player today. That is why Godfrey got ever snap prior to that hit.

I'm pretty sure he got hurt there and must of gotten hurt again or Martin would have been in on at least a few plays..

Or Fox gave Godfrey the job back.....and that is why Martin was playing only special teams. If Martin was hurt and couldn't play S.......then he couldn't play ST.

also, if Fox wasn't going to give Godfrey the job back...there would be not be this "let's alternate our horrible S and new and promising S who played great" talk once Godfrey got healthy.

Looked to me like Godfrey had a pretty good day. An interception, the break-up vs. Winslow in the end zone, great coverage position on Beason's 2nd pick... maybe the bench time did him some good.

Also, Martin got hurt on the kickoff following the opening drive of the game - Carolina's D hadn't even taken the field for their first series yet.

well, the guys are the Observer are reporting Godfrey did get the starting job back. Proof again, Fox starts his guys over talent unless injury forces his hand.

Jake will be back unless he goes to IR. Also, I firmly believe Jarrett or Moore could be make the offense more productive if they got Moose's # of targets.

I think Martin is better also..but Godfrey played really well today. So can't really bash Fox on this. Maybe the time on the sidelines did make a difference.

On the Bryant deep passes Godfrey was out of position and there were quite a few times where he failed to make an adjustment within his zone. He lacks the ability to consistently read the offense in a manner a safety has to, he is much more suited for a CB spot than FS...

      Bryce's Achilles Heel Is Not What You Think It Is

      By LinvilleGorge · Posted

      If we divide the league up into quarters you need to be able to make 8 worse starting QBs for him not to be bottom tier. Who are they?

      Bryce's Achilles Heel Is Not What You Think It Is

      By LinvilleGorge · Posted

      It just doesn't add up to what we're watching. It feels like you're trying to convince yourself that Bryce can just make a few adjustments and pan out. You say he turns the ball over because he's over aggressive and I just don't see that. A lot of his turnovers are just bad throws oftentimes because the balls sails in him. The fumble issues? I mean, you have the smallest QB in the NFL getting hit by extremely large powerful kej who knows based on film study that this guy is prone to coughing up the ball. If you're being hit by a much larger, much more powerful man intent on removing the ball from your possession you're gonna lose that battle a decent amount of the time. I think some of it is due to bad footwork but some of it is also that when there's traffic in front of him he has to try to get the ball up and over that pressure due to his lack of height. His release point it just several inches lower than most NFL QBs, no way around it. You saying it's more difficult than simply looking at outcomes while completely leaning on situational stats to try to convince people their eyes are lying to them and Bryce's arm isn't a significantly limiting factor in his game. Some people are hyperbolic about his lack of arm strength but honestly he has one of the weakest arms in the league. That's just reality if you objectively watch him play versus other NFL QBs. If he had time in a clean pocket and can step up into and through his throw he can make most throws but that's the problem, for him to make the tougher throws everything has to go perfect. If there's pressure pushing him off his spot or pressure in front of him where he can't step up or has to try to loft the pass over the scrum it's probably ending in a poor result. The problem is that's a commonplace scenario in the NFL. It wasn't at Alabama. Trust your own QB analytical system. Bryce being very the bottom of the league matches up perfectly with the eye test of just watching him olay

      If he wanted to be as irrelevant as possible in his final year he's achieving it.
