From top to bottom, it’s not set up for him to be successful.   

a person like Bryce could be scarred, just like any other QB could, if thrown to the wolves too early

Cam also gives his side on the great preseason debate about his cast vs Bryce’s.   Not even close.

So he thinks sitting a rookie QB ala Mahommes/Smith in KC is a good idea

Talks about rookies playing that were in a good position to play as rookies.  Gives Russell Wilson as an example.  Setup for early success.  Situation was good. 

it’s the whole good position, bad position narrative.  You can ruin hurt guys by putting them in bad spots.  We are presently not a great situation for Bryce to be successful and grow.   It’s about what they put around him.  What they ask of him as a QB.

I remember Reich in one of his pressers over minicamp or possibly during training camp literally bragging about how much he was putting on Bryce's plate and it kind of took me by surprise. 

It doesn't appear that he was exaggerating that statement.

Yeah, Cam doesn't elaborate on this part but KC was already a playoff caliber team when they got Mahomes and still sat him. I think Wilson did legit win his qb competition in Seattle where after like 2 training camp practices Reich said Bryce was the guy

crazy to think cam only lasted in the league for 9 years.... great times but man it went by too quick! I still think he could play a taysom hill roll if he wanted.

I'd rather not see him play ever again, if he has to imitate Taysom Hill to get on the field.

      Monday practice tweets

      I know it's only been training camp and one preseason game, but I think T-Mac has already shown his floor to be exactly what I said about him in the pre-draft process. That his floor if he never improves his game, is as one of the best #2 WRs in the NFL, if not even still a low end #1 (i.e. a 25th-ish best WR in the league). I think it's safe to say he's already established himself as our #1, and there are only a small handful of teams in the league where I don't think he'd be their starting #2 WR in Week 1. Bengals (Higgins), Dolphins (Waddle), Eagles (Smith), Bucs (Godwin if healthy), Rams (Adams) are really the only teams where I think he'd be the #3 as a rookie in Week 1.  A few others like the Lions (Williams), Bears (Odunze), Seahawks (Kupp), Commanders (Deebo), where he'd be the 2b to start the season, just because they're vets and/or already have a year or two of experience with their team/QB. And even having said that, I think by year 2, he's better than every one of those players (And no, I'm not saying he's already going to be better than a prime version of Adams, just whatever he'll be at 33 next year), and same goes for Kupp, but that's more because it seems like his body might be quitting on him in a way that hasn't happened to Adams (yet).

      Well to be fair, Horn not practicing right now to let his stitches heal up from a car accident isn't something that should be concerning.  Sure, you don't want him missing practice leading into the season, but it's one that once healed, won't have lingering affects or fear of re-injuring it, it was just bad luck.

      Austin named starting center

      By UnluckyforSome · Posted

      Quality backups are absolutely important. This franchise has been plagued with depth problems. That said, there is a little bit of dismay that Mays can't beat out a 1-legged man, and all the talk going into the off-season was how BC would certainly be gone since he had position versatility.  In the end, it doesn't matter too awfully much, as I would be shocked to no end if Corbett makes it through the season. We know what we have in reserve, and that should surely be better than trying to sign random fat guys mid season to try and take over.
