I thought we were talking about mechanics not "stuff" in general.  My bad.    

Sorry, my point was just that all QBs have things to work on and bad habits they pick up along the way  that  they were, for one reason or another, never quite coached on.

In college, you might have had coaches with an NFL background, but you're in college and there's a limit to how much you can work with coaches. Coaches won't work on development like they do in the pros. They just don't have the time for it.

I'm not sure any TE has ever gotten more bang for the buck for his bank account as Ian Thomas has. He's the type of guy who should've been bouncing around the league trying to latch onto a roster as the 3rd TE and yet we've made him a wealthy man. Good for him but holy poo we're a dumb organization.

We need a Mod to start a go fund me for the huddle so we can all chip in to hire a private investigator so we can get to the bottom of the how does Ian Thomas continue to be on this team mystery.

It was reported by some of the beat reporters he wanted David Carr. Not a small amount either...

Plus it was proven recently that frank, Thomas brown, and campy were not on the same page/thinking. It's a big mess when your OL doesn't know how far the QB is off the ball during the week. Brown wanted to try different plays and frank wanted to stick to their Frankenstein playbook made during the off-season. 

It wouldn't surprise me if fittererererer told frank after a few weeks "guess what, we are trading for the #1 pick" before Frank agreed with it. FItterererer had David tepper putting massive amount of pressure to find a "franchise" QB and after failing to land Watson, stafford and the darnold fumble.......the only remaining way was to trade into the top 1-3. That maybe the biggest fail of them all.....

Mentioned something similar. Seems the all-star cast didn't agree on much and it lead to infighting and coaches going behind each others backs. Total dysfunction on the offensive side.

He HAS to stop hopping around. Jumping on his toes. Idunno if he was just scared and overwhelmed or its because of his height. But after taking a close look at the All-22 ...his footwork is insanely bad at times. 

Canales has his hands full. 

I just don't think you go from Heisman winner to inaccurate mid to long Jag. He can't be a bad as some point him out to be.  His rhythm is off with the routes. And he needs to stop staring down his receivers...(**apparently some of Reich's plays only had 1 option to throw to***) I do think he's fixable, but to trade away a proven NFL #1 WR, the '25 first pick of the draft, etc... you'd think we were getting a much more nfl ready prospect. 

All that said, I'm praying he turns out salvageable and Canales, a better line, and quicker receivers will unlock something I saw a couple of times last season. 

Also makes me think, we're also getting a TE, RB, and WR between final cuts and the draft. They're going to give Bryce every possible avenue to win. That also takes away any excuse. If he looks the same or worse we move on. 

And they said he beat Dalton in camp? 

Ima give him the benefit of the doubt. That Green Bay game showed me he does have something to work with despite his size. Now I gotta go back to the Alabama footage. Iirc, looks like 2 totally different players.

    • Wow that’s actually really cool chatgpt can do that Although, as we know Arizona sat in soft zone the entire second half. So there was a lot of dinking and dunking, but that’s the right thing to do in that situation.  Week 1 pass chart doesn’t look bad. He pushes the ball downfield more than several other quarterbacks I’ve watched. For some reason the huddle thinks other quarterbacks are constantly throwing 60 yard bombs. That is absolutely not the case. Some quarterbacks aren’t taking any deep shots at all.
    • We keep referring to it as Over drafting him like he was really a first round draft pick. We traded up at the end of the first to get him in a deal with Buffalo so that we could grab him and get an extra year on his contract if needed. At the time that sounded like "If he really soars, we can get that fifth year extension automatically". It really probably meant, "We might need five years to really get him up to starting WR speed."  He was basically a second rounder with a potentially meaningless pick as well to pay for those rights. Still, I think that with him we are on the Kelvin Benjamin bubble right now... will he ever be more than just an athlete? Can he really learn to fight and compete for that ball? Can he learn professional routes? Can he handle the fame and more money than he's ever seen in his life? Can he handle all of the pressure a fanbase puts on him? Tough shoes to fill. Not sure I'd want to be in them. I hope he gets it all together soon. A lot, most draftees, can't. Good luck and God bless to the young man. He's got a lot of work to do in a very unforgiving workplace.
    • This is the #1 reason I defend Bryce. Everyone around him is learning on the job, including him. But hey in 3 years we could have a talented offense that grew up together.
