Did Bryce play in week 3?

So, 1 week is a trend?

I dont know what the stats were for 1st down against Seattle, but I know the run game sucked and we barely used Chuba or Viska out of the backfield, which also makes a difference.  And yet, the offense looked the best it has in a full month of football.

I'm pretty sure if we take Seattle out of the equation, the stats aren't much better.

Your post says "I guess it's what you do when you dont trust your super processor."
 

Which you are eluding to the fact we are running on 1st downs specifically bc of Bryce.. but we did the same thing with Dalton.

Eyes don't lie. We run Sanders up our trash guard's ass every fuggin 1st down. It's infuriating. The same godamn play too. Not motion, no stretch play, no trap blocks, just your basic HB dive right up the fuggin gut. Colts fans laughing their asses off.

The offense looked better with a former 10 year starter and strong veteran? You don’t say! 
 

Your little graphic from Instagram is also an inclination on just how bad the play calling is incapacitating Bryce’s ability to play the position as well as you would like him to. He is constantly put in 3rd and long due to Franks insistence on establishing the running game. Our WRs can’t create separation either due to their own inability or poor situational play calling and design. The “star LT” can’t block a blitzing 34 year old safety on the most pivotal play of the game and the unit itself has been pretty dysfunctional in giving Bryce any type of time to manipulate the pocket which is what he is good at. 
 

The team is doing Bryce no favors. Poor talent and perhaps the most incompetent display of play-calling currently in the NFL is going a long way to perpetuate this false narrative of Bryce. Stop expecting him to be Cam.

    • I believe I just read somewhere that the Rams don't do Top 30 Visits. I mean, it makes sense from the standpoint of trying to keep information close to the vest.
    • I'm not sure 19 is too high for Rodriguez anymore.  He looks to be moving up boards, but it could be smokescreens.  
    • I see XL this way---great athlete.  Good person.  When we drafted him, we knew he was raw.  One year of WR in college (starting) and in HS, he was a QB, I believe. We knew we would need patience with him.  I think year 3 will be make or break.  He is older, and I think that people with his athletic ability have always been better than those with less---but those with less can become more successful.  Why is that?  in my view, it is mental. XL can learn the mechanics and nuances of playing WR if he becomes focused on it and works at it.  I had the opportunity to talk to Armanti Edwards one day after OTAs (great guy) and he discussed how overwhelming it was.  He seemed shocked.  At that time, I knew that Fox hated the pick (I heard him mock Armanti to another coach when he saw Edwards drop a punt from a jugs machine--then I saw Armanti look back at Fox as if to suggest that he was feeling the pressure to please the coach. We forget that these are kids in their early 20s.  At the time, Fox was a lame duck.  Remember when he had Clausen as the #3 QB and was forced to move him up the ladder?  I liked Fox, but I think the climate and culture was influenced by the politics.  Currently, I see another Wr from SC who is struggling, but he is ina  very nurturing, positive culture. Let's see what happens with XL.  I am frustrated too---but XL was a second round talent who was raw and we traded up to get him.  He had 500 yards as a rookie--lets call 2025 a sophomore slump and see if we can't get at least 50 yards per game out of him.  If not, cut bait.
