Did Godfrey start today?

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...

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
