The Real Reason Bryce Being the Pick Scares Me - He'll be the Marvin Lewis of QB's

The issues is bias. Previously it was the stolen QB, perceived predominantly running black QB that had the good ol boys standing up and say not on my team. Now it’s size. This fan base sure loves to find any reason to not like someone who is not ideal to the status quo. To be worried about his size when your entire coaching staff and front office isn’t leads one to believe theirs a little more emotionally immature reasoning behind it. On an inferior site and Reddit things are no where near this sloppy and that’s a shame because this a more controlled environment. Like I have said numerous times no matter who the QB is (outside of Levis) why is it so hard to be welcoming and hopefully to give them another layer of foundation rather than continually lambasting them because you perceive yourself as a better talking head than the ones complained about. 

with the size thing...it's understandable. with the race thing...it wasn't. there's a huge difference. 

the data may not be there to back up the assumptions, but there is a reason for the assumption that a smaller QB might be affected more by shots from a bigger player. concerns can and need to be alleviated. there is a concern that he might not be able to see as much of the field and that he might have to stay playing out of the shotgun. not a big deal, but a legit concern. the size thing is an issue for the team, but it's one they, i suppose, feel they can work around and that he's worth the extra steps/adaptation needed.

the poo with cam was the stereotypes that black QB = running QB and that they wouldn't be able to pass very well and there were also implications that black QB = less intelligent. there were other stereotypes that existed that were just as toxic and unfounded.

basically...it's a much different scenario.

There was no threat. You called me a coward I asked you to stop being disrespectful. And alluded to you not having the same heart if we ever crossed paths. Please try to say I said different. Unless the mods already want to ban thanks for trying to so that you can feel safe to be disrespectful and protected on here.

You are a hero in your own mind. Idk why you’re pming, and idc if you get banned for it or don’t. The race baiting when we’re debating between 2-3 black QBs is really what you should be getting banned for. You’re a walking contradiction to the extent I can only conclude you are completely trolling.

The scenarios are similar, adversity because of a physical trait. Cam overcame the adversity and BY will too. To say they aren’t bringing out the same like minded people to oppose because of a clear bias to their preference is disingenuous to people who are in the shoes of the people being ridiculed and trying to be the best version of themselves. 

Actually it's playing the race card, and playing it poorly.

Edit: Aaaannd he's gone.

Come on bro - like I actually do understand the schtick you're going for here but equating (very understandable) concerns about size to actual racism is a bridge too far.  By this logic we're discriminating against children because we don't let them ride rides they're too short for.  Or people who are too heavy for tandem skydiving harnesses because of a 'physical trait'.  It's a silly equivalency.

There are some people who think Young is too small for this particular ride for one reason or another.  I'm sorry this offends you but it's not a discriminatory position nor is it so off the wall that it's worth mocking.

~Damnit...missed him.

OK, Jesus christ people, how, under any circumstances, does threatening someone with violence over a message board on the internet seem like a viable course of action in your life?

What choices in your life lead you down this road, multiple times at that?

BriceYung is gone, it's absolutely ridiculous that I even have to step in and say "Hey, don't threaten other people on the internet", but here I am. 

Anyway, don't threaten other people on the internet. 

If we met in real life, I would give you the angriest look 😡

Seriously though, how do you let football discussion lead to something like that?

Yeesh 🙄

Lol dude said “alluded”…that’s not indirect at all. 
 

@BriceYung9 you “alluded” to racism earlier in this thread, but your threat was not “alluded”.

 

Switch those around and things will be easier for everyone.

At Christmas I went to a work party and met a guy who was all in on Steve Wilks as the perma-coach. We had a discussion and I disagreed. I explained my perspective on why we should move on, he shared his on why Wilks should stay. The conversation was civil. At no point did ask the man to step outside simply because our opinions differed because I'm not a petulant child.

I will say this for what it is worth I don’t know if he got a perma ban or not and I tried to pm it to him but I can’t find our pms anymore but maybe he is still reading this. The inclusion of calling him coward was wrong on my end. I felt it was cowardly of him to constantly be pooing my posts and not even quoting and disagreeing, but I should have just said “You got something to say, say it.” and left it at that.

Bryce can keep a play alive but, ultimately, I think you want the guy that consistently provides elite ball placement by hitting receivers in stride or dropping the ball in places where only the receiver has a shot at the ball.  CJ Stroud is that guy.  I personally will be SHOCKED if you do NOT take Stroud.

 

On another note, a Yahoo guy has Young, Richardson, and Levis going 1,2, & 3.  Lol.  That guy is on acid.  

Prepare to be SHOCKED

    • okay I found this and it sounds like my hopes for the first surgery being not such a great job seems like it could be actual reality.  I only hoped because that would give a better chance for recovery and ia a possible scenario so I just thought it could be possible. Had no real evidence of it. But I’ll be damned.    This is a detailed report of Brooks’ surgery and the condition of his knee after the failed repair.     https://x.com/jmthrivept/status/2055743129408704806?s= Sparked by some very good questions by @CoachspeakIndex, here’s some info on Jonathon Brooks: 1. Speculation that the first graft/ACLR by Dr. Cooper didn’t “take” or at least was too lax, leading to failure and re-tear. Brooks dealt with issues cutting, progressing in his rehab into the early stages of 2024 and then re-tore it late 2024, requiring a second ACLR in January 2025 (essentially revision). Notably, CAR prolonged Brooks’ rehab process through Sept-Oct due to issues progressing into the next stages of rehab. 2. Second surgery performed by Dr. Neal ElAttrache, who has extensive experience with revisions. He did a double bundle technique, harvesting graft from Brooks’ left patellar tendon and a strip of his right IT Band (his right patellar tendon had been utilized for the prior graft in 2023. The double bundle technique significantly increases rotational stability of the knee, leading to a stronger and more secure graft/reconstruction. Also to note, Brooks’ surgery wasn’t significantly delayed, meaning that the tunnels from his prior ACLR were in good shape and they didn’t need to perform bone grafts to fill in (would have delayed 2nd surgery by 5-6 months). Essentially, reading the tea leaves tells me that everything else except for the graft itself was still in good quality within his knee. Good sign for future.  3. Typically, you see a performance increase anywhere from 16-20 months post-revision. Brooks will be ~21 months out from his second surgery by the time Week 1 hits. His knee should be more stable and stronger this time around, with adequate time for healing and return to all movement patterns. I’m not viewing this situation as a typical “Player __ had TWO ACL tears, he’s cooked” situation. Rather, I’m viewing it as the first procedure failed, but the second procedure is significantly stronger and should allow him to return to form this time around. I don’t know why it posted as a link but there it is.  
    • Jackie, any more reps tomorrow, or is that it for this session?  thanks for the work
    • How can you say they aren’t trying to win now with all the moves made in free agency? Or is trading first round picks the only way to be win now? I’d be fine never trading another first round pick again, win now be damned.
