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 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.
    • 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.
