The impressive throw you wanted from Bryce..but didn't get

Yeah Moton nearly gets pushed into his lap and if he steps up right at the moment he needs to throw that pass with anticipation he’d be smelling the DEs coffee breath and giving up a free arm swipe so y’all could complain about another fumble. “Clean pocket” my ass. Pause right at 22 seconds, that’s when he wants to step up and throw the ball. Look where his feet are and where Moton’s are. They are parallel within inches of each other and up to that point Moton had done nothing but give ground to the edge and now he’s moving him laterally right where Bryce wants to step up. Young escapes and sets his feet again but by the time his feet are set Thielen is just lazily drifting in the back of the end zone and 2 Vikings DBs are in position to make a play if he throws it there.

6-7 seconds is where Thielen was initially open. Either he couldn’t see it, didn’t trust his arm strength or was just shook. That’s NFL clean pocket and open receiver

I keep saying it, i honestly dont know what folks are seeing. Maybe they like bryce that much where they cant fault him, but right here the ball should be out, this is what separates mediocre qbs and elite qbs. You have vision and the pocket is clean at this moment, the receiver has a opening in coverage and you need a score....i mean it doesn't get much better than that in the nfl. Anything that happens after this moment is on the qb improvising because the window has closed. You gotta take the shot, what else is there?

    • Like many of the old heads, I’ve been here for a long time.  I got a lot of respect for everyone on this board for your dedication to this team.  We’ve all been through it during the tougher years. At this point in life, I’m not one to judge anyone’s level of dedication, or their reasons why anymore.  Time, and a lot of bad football, will do that.  For me, it’s simple.  We share a common bond.  For that, I love and appreciate all of you crazy SOB’s. For me, last season was at a minimum, entertaining.  BY lead a young team to multiple come from behind 4th qtr wins.  That showed me heart, and that he has the clutch gene.  That’s the wildcard intangible.  For me, that was fun to watch even  if it was mindbogglingly frustrating at times.  Over the past two seasons, we have progressively built a better team around him.  On paper, the defense should be better this season.  That’ll help.  Let’s see what he can do as the other guys continue to develop too.  Besides, his contract is cheap for a few more years, and we just made some smart cap decisions during the draft. Let’s see how it shakes out.

    • I would very much liked to have seen Jake Delhomme's career if Tommy Jone no hurt Jake.  I just know that roster and the leadership were destined to hit paydirt but Jake was never the same after the elbow injury, and unfortunately he was the sole reason they didn't make it back to the big one.  I think that 08 team was the best in the league, and Jake masked his inability well all season til the Arizona game put it all on display.  I'll go back to the season prior even and say the 07 team was primed to be a competitor.  Jake was off to a fantastic start that year (for a Panthers QB).  They may have been a championship caliber club for a few seasons after 08 too.
