 I am pretty sure Thomas Brown was the one calling the plays  in that Green Bay game last year & Reich had already been fired at that point in time

he was.  I'm just saying even Bryce's one good game.....wasn't really a good game.  It was just a good 4th quarter where TB was up double digits and the Carolina drives where the drives were aided by big penalties.

Made some good throws though. I’ll give him that. But that was against a 7-8 team playing in his stadium. That fired their DC after the season (maybe because of that? lol jk I don’t know)

It is going to come down to what many people are focusing on, his arm and accuracy at 30 yards, at 40 yards. I honestly do not think he knows where it is going to come down. 

The reason I say that because his longer distance throws are so off target, so frequently, that I can’t assume he meant to put it in that great spot where the WR had an easy catch for a chunk play. That’s just where it ended up.

Which is why we got Legette, I think. Almost Gettleman-esque the way they addressed Youngs wildness. 

Gettleman: QB missing high, easy: get taller receivers. I mean, you are really smart Dave! That is so much more effective than working with the QB to adjust his mechanics to get the balls from sailing. 

Canales and Morgan: well. The response to the QB being wild on downfield throws, easy: just get a jump ball specialist that can run fast. Don’t have to be accurate semi deep. I will be less harsh towards this logic because I really don’t think the QB can improve any of that and I believe they did the best they could.

    • Ha-ha, I bet that went through everyone's mind.  Admittedly I don't read all the comments in a thread before I make a post. Great minds think alike!
    • Cam was hitting his stride as a QB in 2017/2018.     This is why I think stats like completion percentage are overrated. As long as a QB is clutch and makes the throws to win the game the rest doesn’t really matter. What good is a check down stat padder if they’re a choker.  Until Norv Turner (and briefly Chud) got here we put Cam in high pressure throwing situations all the time. We also ran the ball on first down more than most teams in the NFL in the Ron era. Coupled with shitty WRs, all that is expressed in his stats. I also assume Cam took the ball in his hands on many occasions rather than trust Funchess to catch the ball.    It was also never Cams job to play the game like someone else. His presence on the field dictated the game in a way that is rarely seen.  He showed he could play the dink and dunk game just before TJ Watt. That didn’t suddenly make him better than his earlier seasons. He just got put in a legit under center  passing game again for first time since his rookie year with Chud.    Ron took the quickest path to success and abused the RPO because his ass was about to get fired.    Cam never got the credit for being the cerebral player that he was. I just think when you are legitimately a human Superman, sometimes the best play is having the ball in your hands. He was a better passer than Delhomme was. 
    • I don't think Canales has any problem benching Bryce or moving on if Bryce doesn't come out playing like the end of last year.  It's year 3 no more excuses for Bryce
