The pass to 88 was late--88 seems to explode out of the break and then slows.  The ball needed to be thrown sooner or more outside (He could have dragged feet--there is no reason in an uncovered rep to be late).  Someone tell me that I am seeing things or nit picking.

Yeah, I seen the Free agents list but was stating that if a better option pops during cuts, that'd be high on the pecking order.  

 

Center is tricky because you should be spending all camp on cadence and chemistry, hard to just drop a center in for the qb and the rest of the O-line. They are basically the front line that everyone else reacts to

I agree we need that filled early!! If a talented one comes tho, scoop him up  regardless! Rather it's Bryce or another qb, can never have enough oline(center) talent.

Looks like it's a bit late but if you watch when he throws it he does throw it as he hits his break but seems to Aim it towards the pylon maybe that was the drill? Hard telling.

I may have BC focus on C for now.  Easier to bring in a few Guards (after cuts, maybe) than a C.  Personally, I think BC could be a solid C if given the reps.  I should add that the snap placements should be a bit erratic at first for a career G to move to C--not ready to give up on Corbett on Aug 4.

Honestly whoever can call out the protections and stop all these free runs to the QB. The amount of times it happened last year and the amount it's already happening in TC they have to know that it's a problem and something has to change, or whatever their plan is needs to start working ASAP or I doubt Bryce survives the season whether we want him to or not.

I am under the impression that (one again) we have last year's guards playing. If we could get both Gs who have been successful, we can see what we have.  There is no reason your LG should be a weakness, but we seem to have a history of sucking there.  I am getting concerned that we are not going to protect Bryce and Bryce is not going to be good.  My focus is on 2025 anyway, but there are a lot of questions I want to see answered this season.  Icky, WR, QB (I think we probably know that answer), LB, CB,and C.

    • Yeah, Dave doesn't seem like a "muh scheme" type of coach where he wants plays drawn up for his QB to robotically go through a preprogrammed process. He seems like more the type of coach that just wants his scheme to produce opportunities for a QB to be a playmaker. It's a scheme you'd love to play in as a QB and it's the type of scheme that should work really well for the "point guard mentality" QB they tried to sell us on Bryce being and the type of QB he was at Alabama but at the NFL level all of those physical shortcomings that seemed plainly evident to many of us on the college field are showing up in a big way. Even with his bad decisions I honestly think a lot of it is that he's struggling to see the field. I don't mean that figuratively in that he's misreading the defense or missing open receivers, I mean that literally in that I think he's struggling to see the field over the lines of 6'4"+ huge men in front of him. Reich used to talk about creating throwing lanes for Bryce to see through and holy poo... if you need throwing lanes now you've massively shrunk your opportunities. Now you're trying to play QB through a picket fence. If you watched him play at Bama, you saw him routinely drop back 10-15 yards behind the LOS to gain depth so that he could see over the scrum. You just can't do that routinely in the NFL. NFL pass rushers are just too good. Your OTs can't create that deep of a pocket.
    • This could be a breakout game for Kyle Pitts. I'm hoping for a miracle just so we have something to talk about besides the team sucking poo.
    • I don't remember a 2018 tear down. I remember the failed 2019 failed build up of the 3-4 switch which is still stuck in the 'working on the foundation' stage. I thought 2020 was closer to that but really it was just an idiot behind the wheel doing what idiots do. Poor drafting and free agents is the main problem IMO. This team hits so little on talent it's actually amazing they don't stumble over more just by accident.   I still don't think there is anything to tear down. Just a ton of easy to dump people that should happen. It's a bottom of the roster churn that reaches 2/3s the way up this roster.
