Canales on fixing Bryce's footwork

True Bryce Young highlights there. 

You can focus on the OL or a drop or what you perceive to be no separation, but what hits me first is the lackadaisical totally no urgency drop back posture. It’s freaking horrible. 

I am gonna need Frank to speak before any sense can be made of it. What I saw was a totally beaten man who wasn’t trying to win football games.

I think what beat him was the task of fixing that horrible draft pick. He wanted to bench him. That is what Seattle was. 

Just seems like arguing with whichever fresh Bryce stan that is inspired to do battle on his behalf, using the same arguments that have rebutted, I have been down that road. I appreciate you guys trying to explain it to people who won’t have any of it and won’t even look at what you are saying.

There is so much denial being thrown around, all of this Bryce “YES HE IS TOO!!!!! indignation, but it doesn’t change what is and what is not.

Far as Canales, he has to do his due diligence. As a coach. As the leader of the team. It is the right thing to do it is the safe thing for his job in any season. And I hope at some point the idea of competition and the best player for the job, work their way back into the culture over there. It is gone from the building regarding the QB position. Sadly.

But for now he has 2.7 and two big ass guards. And a QB with a noodle and the worst footwork I have ever seen. And he has to make an offense out of it. 

1st thing is get the throwing motion defined. He knows better than to try and reprogram that footwork. Too big a job, and would fail. Never been done on that level. I mean, have you looked at it?

It will be done by demanding results along a timeline. On this spot at this time. Ball out by this time. How he gets there really won’t matter. If he can’t do it, maybe Canales gets a chance to work with a player who is capable. And we aren’t held hostage by this ... whatever he is. 

 

 

I still; want to know the same things I did before the picked him: how will he do when he doesn’t get a runway to launch his deep ball? Show me he can do that. If you cannot, you are Super Limited. Period.

Tepper and Fitterer needed Bryce to be the pick and they need him to start week 1.   That's the world Frank Reich found himself in.   And he looked mentally broken once that was set in stone.

I get where he's coming from and it sure sounds nice, but refreshing on the mechanics is different than having to tear down such ingrained habits. I bet that Bryce is always working on it and maybe we see a positive change this season.

Here we go with the "hot takes" again. True - Bryce doesn't have an elite arm, but he DOES have a good arm. More than adequate for the NFL.   

Why does Dalton have to come in for hail marys?  Can you name any other nfl starting qb that gets taken out for hail marys?

Because we gave up a poo load to get him and our crack front office said he was the most pro ready qb since luck or some such and to add insult to injury Stroud has absolutely flawless mechanics

We know that. That's history now. Why hang onto it? It does absolutely no good to dwell on that poo. The question is, what do we do to make it better aside from replacing Young? Because that ain't happening for a while.

He's got work to do. It doesn't matter anymore that he shouldn't, he just does... again, hat like every other QB. Dies he have more to work on? It doesn't matter anymore. It doesn't do any good to be thinking about what could have been done differently or better.

I get that but was responding to you saying what qb doesn't have to work form?

So much evidence that has zero to do with the OL and WRs and play calling and a dozen other excuses. 

You don’t even need to see him play, if you just go by what they did, you are illuminated. 

People don’t resort to these measures when there are no issues.

Yeah, the dumpster fire was literally because of everyone and everything except for Bryce Young. Keep believing that.

I don't think that anyone has tried to argue that Bryce was the only problem but your head had to be deep in the sand to not see that he was a big part of the problem. 

Think most of us know by now Bryce aint it ...and we're all holding on for something miraculous and to prove we've all been wrong.  Regardless, we'll see this year but not expecting anything good really...Just another year to hopefully prove Morgan is a legit GM.

To me the hopping is the biggest hindrance.   You cannot waste time in the pocket by bouncing around trying to see the play and then correctly get your feet set and follow through on the throw.

Dipper fugged himself and us again by being the smartest man in the room...

    • I hate seeing this. I'm not sure he was ever going to make it in the NFL without the injury but that injury knocked FSU out of the college football playoffs and cost him and them and opportunity on the biggest stage in college sports. The injuries are the worst part of this game.
    • I don't know what Texas A&M was doing with their edge rushers. They had two freaks in Scourton and Shemar Stewart and yet instead of turning them loose they asked them to play 20 lbs overweight and just set the edge. That's full-on coaching malpractice at any level. Much was made about Shemar Stewart's lack of sack production, but while he wasn't my favorite prospect this year a lot of that was clearly what they were asking him to do. The good news with Scourton is that, unlike Stewart, did manage to be a huge factor as a pass rusher despite this and despite playing 20 lbs overweight. If he can stay around 260-265 it should help him re-gain some of that explosiveness from his Purdue days.
    • I did, but again we're aware of the practice in college of inflating height/weight as well as what is considered normal and his freshman weight tells a lot. There was a recent Raw Room episode where at one point they were discussing putting on their "big boy weight" when they go to the pros. It's common for guys to have to slap on 20lbs over the summer, but King Dunlap mentioned having to put on 30 and how much of a toll that took on his body. That makes the idea of putting on 50 at the college level even harder to believe. I've got experience with cutting weight and that type of drop sounds just awful... and that's even if doing it healthy and not just turning yourself into a piece of human jerky. Having to add 50? Noooooo thank yoooou. I can understand wanting to take Scourton at face value, but we didn't take Bryce at face value either (and for good reason!). Give the recently posted videos a shot. I watched the one you linked even though I've already seen it, so why not extend the same courtesy? I think you'll find yourself getting more excited about his Purdue tape than you will being irritated by what you believe are false narratives being pushed. 😄
