Anybody else think we are putting to much on Bryce's plate?

Sanders was in a great position for a RB last year with an awesome OL and QB who can run to draw the linebackers.    We will be a good test to see how good he truly is.

I would feel a whole lot better if we kept Foreman as well but he wanted   RB#1.     I would feel better knowing there is another RB there before we put Chuba-oops I dropped the ball again-Hubbard on the field.

Foreman frankly earned a ticket back to be the early down RB IMO.  But that's the NFL.  Who you know is going to matter a as roleplaying vet.  New staff was going to be bad news for dudes like him.

This is a padded practice which most simulates real life game action and As I said before.. it was never a question of too much for Bryce but actually not ENOUGH WEAPONS for Bryce I'm afraid he's being set up to fail by these inadequate weapons

Oh sure. And hey, it's not like it's too early to make this kind of judgment or anything 😕

If only our mediocre-at-best coaching staff would take your sage advice.

Chubba actually showed a lot of improvement from year 1 to last year on dropped passes. He was not bad last year.

I don’t think it’s about what is on his plate as much as people have too high of expectations of him his rookie season. Too many people are expecting him to have a 5000 yard 40+ TD rookie season and it’s not going to happen. You’re seeing that with some of these mixed results in training camp and people panicking over interceptions. I’ve already seen people on Twitter labeling him as a bust.

Bump! Trash O line and underwhelming WR options is just what I was referring too! So I ask again.. are we asking Bryce for too much? He's need more help. And did anybody get Rivera vibes when Frank said in the press conference that he wasn't being hit late?!? PROTECT THE STARTING QB EVEN IF YOU DON'T THINK ITS LATE YOU SAY ITS LATE AND BEG FOR THE PENALTY AFTERWARDS!!

Did Bryce look overwhelmed to you today? He didn’t to me. It’s game one of the preseason. He’s a bright kid. He can handle all this.

    • Like many of the old heads, I’ve been here for a long time.  I got a lot of respect for everyone on this board for your dedication to this team.  We’ve all been through it during the tougher years. At this point in life, I’m not one to judge anyone’s level of dedication, or their reasons why anymore.  Time, and a lot of bad football, will do that.  For me, it’s simple.  We share a common bond.  For that, I love and appreciate all of you crazy SOB’s. For me, last season was at a minimum, entertaining.  BY lead a young team to multiple come from behind 4th qtr wins.  That showed me heart, and that he has the clutch gene.  That’s the wildcard intangible.  For me, that was fun to watch even  if it was mindbogglingly frustrating at times.  Over the past two seasons, we have progressively built a better team around him.  On paper, the defense should be better this season.  That’ll help.  Let’s see what he can do as the other guys continue to develop too.  Besides, his contract is cheap for a few more years, and we just made some smart cap decisions during the draft. Let’s see how it shakes out. 
    • Hiring Shula & his Cam save us playbook.
    • I would very much liked to have seen Jake Delhomme's career if Tommy Jone no hurt Jake.  I just know that roster and the leadership were destined to hit paydirt but Jake was never the same after the elbow injury, and unfortunately he was the sole reason they didn't make it back to the big one.  I think that 08 team was the best in the league, and Jake masked his inability well all season til the Arizona game put it all on display.  I'll go back to the season prior even and say the 07 team was primed to be a competitor.  Jake was off to a fantastic start that year (for a Panthers QB).  They may have been a championship caliber club for a few seasons after 08 too.
