My man didn’t you watch Jack Plummer tonight?!  if Bryce plays and gets hurt Plummer is our starting QB

And if Bryce is healthy he is the starting quarterback. That's almost as scary.

I'm mostly kidding. Mostly.

Good:

-Leota, Jamison, TJ Smith, and Matthews. Cook wasn’t bad either.

-Defense was very sound and disciplined. 
 

- Offensive concepts were vague because of preseason but better than Franks. The execution just wasn’t there. 
 

Bad

-Everyone on the OL except sometimes Christensen.

-The WRs dropping balls, falling down, just awful.

-Penalties on offense.
 

I don’t know if Plummer was that bad or if all the drops and running for his life amplified it. Had a few of those drops been caught it may have offered better perception.

We need to bring in a QB who can push and has the capability of replacing Bryce, not back him up. He needs a fire lit under him. 

He was way too comfortable not playing tonight, but that's just been his demeanor since he been here.

Don’t suggest things that make sense, this franchise only does things to make the team worse.

My bad on that post. Had high hopes that maybe something positive could happen for this team. Obviously not.

There is nothing to apologize for,  you lose nothing hoping to see something from a guy that wasnt even drafted. If he didn't show out playing with 2nd and third stringers then the undrafted status was justified.

It's preseason. I can't believe people even pay to go.

A second year guy who did nothing last year and needs all the reps he can get in a new offense with new pieces around him. Most other legit starting qbs in the league are playing this week....just pre season tho.

Defense looked solid as expected with Evero. 
 

Matthews looked solid at TE. Everyone else on offense was trash and god help us if the starter gets injured and they have to play. 

Sanders, the rookie TE, looked good blocking on a couple of plays- sealed the edge on a run. If our TEs and RBs can help in pass pro it’ll make a big difference later.

    • Baker was traded before he played his 5th year.  RGIII was cut before playing his 5th year. So it is rare but it happens. 
    • Time to hit 4000 yards and 30 TDs (including rushing). I don't care about INTs anymore. That's a big part of the problem. He plays uber conservative until the game is on the line. Playing not to lose, instead of playing to win. Time to let it friggin rip from the get. The team can win with a pick or 2 if he has 3-4 TDs. Stop playing scared.  But to be fair, his WRs have not been great. You all can bash about 1st round picks and O-line cap all you want.  Chuba as your #1 RB his entire career.  Adam Thielen as your best WR for 2 of 3 seasons is ridiculous. Then a rookie as your best in the 3rd season. Legette is not a 1st round talent. Probably closer to a 4th if you compare him to Brazzel this year. Coker has been a walking injury report. Nothing else to really speak of at WR or TE. Jimmy Horn has potential, but he is not an NFL starter yet. Oline has been better as run blockers than pass blockers. Ickey has always been so-so as a pass blocking LT. Center has been a revolving door for 3 years. Damien Lewis has been as marketed. Hunt is a great run blocker but an ok pass blocker - when healthy. Moton has been solid at RT. Biggest problem with the oline has been depth. When someone went down, their replacement became a glaring weakness. Overall a good but not great unit the last 2 years. 2023 was a ish show. Nothing else to say.  Not one game breaker, take it to the house offensive weapon since DJ Moore. Hopefully we get a little of that from Brazzell.  Either way, in his 4th season, it doesn't matter. You have to be able to overcome whatever comes your way. First 3 seasons with a young supporting cast is defendable. Can't use that anymore though. 3rd year in the offense. 3rd year with the same HC.   
    • Highest amount of OL salary cap in the league too. The Chiefs are behind us at 2 but we are ahead of them by a cool $23 million. https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/position/offensive-line/_/year/2026/table/active/sort/cap_total
