I mean damn you had @Mr Mojo Risin on here just yesterday saying preseason didnt

matter

 

spoiler alert:  It does.  A lot

It matters more for teams with new coaches and schemes like us, less for teams with established offenses and QBs like the Chiefs or Bengals.

I was one of the "Wait and see" people as far as the preseason went, and was willing to give the team to the midpoint as long as there was improvement, but the offense looked just as poo in week 10 as it did in preseason week 1.

If missing TMo + DLew hurts this bad, then we might not have the depth we were hoping for at OL going into the season.

It was one thing to keep hearing about Clowney eating everybody's lunch, but now we're hearing that Chaisson and Johnson are getting after it. As much as I want to get excited for the pass rushers doing better than expected, I'm not ready to go through another season with the OL being as bad as it was last year.

I am pretty sure that Yosh Nijman has been out and he was supposed to be our swing tackle depth.

Having said that, said that, OL Depth was always going to be an issue just based on how completely terrible they were last season.

OL depth has been mismanaged for almost a decade now.

Either practice is uneventful today or it's starting to look a lot like last year. Hopefully the former.

The content creators could also be trying for some low-hanging outrage engagement. There's a lot more little quips than reporting on the action today.

The pressure/time is a point some if us have been looking at for deep passes. Is it bad OL that prevents deep opportunities (yes you need a little time to throw these), a confidence issue for Bryce, a play calling issue, or a lack of deep threat WRs issue? Maybe it was a combination of all the above. Regardless the past couple of practices there have been deep shots so hopefully DC is trying to address this.

Where has BC been practicing today?  Is he solely focusing on center?  I would imagine he would be a fallback option at guard since he was a solid starter there.  Or is he going to be the swing lineman?

We need to cut Zalava, Mays, and the other trash OL once cut downs begin.  I'd rather have back-ups that have had decent game experience and results than not up to par 2nd/3rd year players

      Panthers Sign QB Will Grier

      By SmokinwithWilly · Posted

      I'm really not stressing about upgrading from Bryce. I'm frustrated with our inability (or refusal) to recognize overall bad QB performance and failure to seriously address the issue. QB is the most impactful position on the field, and we're not only settling for what we've been given to this point, but we've rewarded it with a fully guaranteed 5th year extension for a player that's never played 2 NFL franchise QB quality games back to back in 3 seasons. I can't understand how that's ok from a coach's or GM's viewpoint. Successful franchises don't do things like this. It just doesn't make sense.  We do not have a top half of the league QB right now. Since we don't have that player, we should be looking for him. Pickett isn't it. Grier isn't it. Bryce hasn't proven he is yet. Until you have that sure fire franchise QB, you keep looking. You're not consistently making the playoffs, a deep run, or a SB appearance without one.  What's the worst that could happen? We end up with 2 potential number 1 QBs? How horrible.

      Easy to understand Pickett, if this is anywhere close to on point. Canales wants to get as close to Bryce as he can- get the pace and timing in the throws as close a he can to Bryce. So the other players don’t have to adjust so much, to a new guy.       If Cam was the 1, he would look for a rocket arm.  But Bryce is the 1. Look for limited in the same way.  Low velocity, plenty of air under it, feels just like home when Picket comes in. And you have the guys on the second team not having such a radical adjustment (if they have to play) like with Dalton to Bryce.    Enter Grier. I guess we will collect those types.

      Best part is if we draft him, we can also use him as our fourth and one QB sneaker
