Maybe, in the future, we don't shout how important a player is...

Yes, because the rest of the league had no idea who Burns was, and how important he is to our defense. 

 

Some of the poo Y'all talk yourselves into has zero logic.

I’d have no issue with this if we didn’t turn down two firsts for him.

It doesn’t matter if he wants more than we feel comfortable giving him, once that was known we had no negotiating power and we have no option but re-signing him.

Just get it done, if we passed up 2 firsts and then can’t/don’t re-sign him then people need to be fired immediately.

This is why I don’t trust this team. Some of us are old enough to remember how poorly they handled Julius Peppers and I swear to God I’m done with this team if he holds out or we only get a compensatory 3rd for him.

Can't help but think of Peppers.

We were in a fugged up situation in which I think the decision we made hurt the team.

Not sure what we should have done, but what we did hurt us.

We should have traded him for a shitload of picks.

He said he did not want to play here and egotistical business man JR thought he could convince him and at least buy him like a dumbass. So he was tagged.

The first half+ of games he played the year he was tagged he literally walked through plays. Until I think it was Thomas Davis who called him out big time.

Magically after that he became his usually monster player. Then after the season he just left. Zero compensation.

It was comical. This is how an egotistical owner, especially a hands on one, ruins a team. Tepper os even worse than JR, and I never thought I’d say that.

    • seems like he wasn't quite himself when he came back from landing on his head. like his confidence wasn't 100%. hoping it is, though.  we've got a lot of potential here. i really like our TE room right now. RB corps is stacked. WR doesn't look too shabby either. and we are going to see some good things from BY too. 
    • It's been mentioned in this thread, yet many are glossing over it... This WR group has a ton of potential. TMAC, XL and Coker, and maybe even Horn as the speed guy will get a ton of snaps in this offense. The reality is that they are all really unproven. Hopefully they're ascending, but we don't know if XL and Coker are maxed out based on last season. TMAC and Horn are ROOKIES. So the only "proven vets" are Thielen, Moore and Renfrow. Not exactly top of the league. Biggest issue being a lack of speed to take the top off of defenses. Say what you want about Tedd Ginn but he was probably the most important receiver on the team in 2015.
    • That would basically make him a top 10 quarterback based on last year's stats if you break down each QB metric, complied and ranked them. I get the premise of the question--why should we get rid of Bryce after the season if the team still sucks, but it's not Bryce's fault?  Fair enough. If Bryce balls out and for whatever reason we still can't get over the hump, he shouldn't catch all the grief for it.  However, I will caveat that while stats can add layers of paint to a canvass, they do not always paint the whole picture.  So while those hypothetical stats are pretty darn good, if we are inept in the red zone settling for FGs or he's coughing up the ball on sacks or completing layup passes that doesn't get us first downs, then statistically he can have a really good season, but it could leave us on the short end of the scoreboard some games.
