I think they need to cap the damn time they spend in their caves watching film. Too much overthinking leads to no thinking at all.

100% agreed. I'm good with players doing it, because they need to. Coaches on the other hand can get into their heads too easy. KISS needs to be plastered on every, damn, wall in coaches offices. Keep It Simple Stupid.

No one will say no to Mike Evans for a 2025 1st rounder and if you do you’re dumb.

We aren't one player away from a super bowl. They gave up all their picks to get their ring. We've almost given up all of ours already. No way we should give up a first for Mike evans

Clearly our receiving core leaves a great deal to be desired. And Thomas Brown needs to be running this offense. But we still can't be turning the ball over like we did. You either believe Young will put in the work to correct it or you didn't like him all along and will use this as an opportunity to pat yourself on the back.

Two turnovers in a rookie QB's debut with no WR separation isn't what I'd call disappointing. It's what I expected. He's gonna make some bad reads. He's a rookie on a bad team.

He needs his WRs to get open, or get schemed open, so he gets a chance to overcome those bad reads.

I thought our play calling was better with Brown on the headset in the preseason games.

This shows me that frank shouldn't be calling plays. All the receivers running to the same area of the field... Great design

Honestly...

Reich got figured out early. Had a good drive in the 2nd, but that was it. Maybe they can be prepared to let Brown take over if he's not figuring out how to get guys open. Young had plenty of time. He was scanning the field, but couldn't find anyone to throw the ball to. That's playcalling. Playcalling and below-average route runners that can't get separation without the scheme doing it for them.

I think we'll see a few more open guys next week, because NO will blitz more. Then we can get mad at the OL for not protecting Bryce and half the board can get mad at Bryce for missing a WR after throwing a pass while falling down

I hope chark is back next week and playing one of the 8 games he'll play this year

Our deep threat was out today, but Mingo should've had a 99 yard TD with a better throw and TMJ should've had a deep catch with a better route ran.

As far as TMJ goes, IMO that’s just a WR being lazy not wanting to waste energy on a decoy route….and then it just happened to go that way.  He didn’t think it was coming IMO.  Think everyone was surprised. 
 

Chark IMO can’t be considered anything. He isn’t reliable enough.  Just a bonus. He can do the job when healthy though

      We have seen Bryce get outplayed by all manner of QBs, from UDFAs to second round picks.  If we actually scouted any QBs it would not be a difficult task to upgrade from Bryce, you guys act like he is even decent. He is one of the worst starters league wide stop making excuses.

      if  ANYONE actually goes & looks at the FACTS on rookie Qb's after 2 full seasons as a starter in the NFL & they are still well below average do they rarely ever actually become top tier Qb's & instead most likely either do not recieve a second contract & or become life long backups...just saying

      So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre.
