I sense this season like the past couple is gonna be focused on getting better and establishing an identity. Saying that:

looked good - Dillion Johnson, Trevon Wallace, Jordan Matthews, JT sanders, Coker (potential there) 

need to be cut: all the backup DL, Plummer, ISM.

Dillon Johnson showed a combination of speed, power and explosiveness we haven't seen at the RB spot since Stew. 

Never went down on first contact, decisive in his cuts and turned several 2 yard losses into 3-5 yard games. 

More importantly, he wanted to be out there. Looked like he actually gave a poo and wasn't just going through the motions during garbage time of the 4th quarter.

I would not think twice at putting him on the 53 especially if Brooks starts the season on IR.

I did not watch last night's game but from the sound of it I am frightened we will have another season where it's not even watchable play in person or on TV and that sure is disappointing. Still though I'm going to hope (yet be a realist) that when the starters come out, it will look like a complete different team. I think we are in for another rough season but not judging any players or coaches just yet till I see the regular season.

I can’t remember a game as boring and uninteresting as the one tonight. Oh yeah, last week’s game. 
 

I’m honestly worried about how detached I am from this franchise, what the fug.  On a bigger scale, it’s impacting my excitement for NFL football overall. First time I’ve been like this going back to day one, 1995. 

I want to tell you, I’m looking for what you said that deserves someone shitting your post. 

I think maybe you committed a Bryce Young thought crime.

It's so funny how most of the people claiming they didn't watch it or only watched a small part are commenting the most about how they feel about the game.   I thought it was fairly positive.  Much better than the first game.  No big offensive explosion but what do you expect with Plummer who looked bad in college and some oline players who signed to the team in the past couple days.

      We have seen Bryce get outplayed by all manner of QBs, from UDFAs to second round picks.  If we actually scouted any QBs it would not be a difficult task to upgrade from Bryce, you guys act like he is even decent. He is one of the worst starters league wide stop making excuses.

      if  ANYONE actually goes & looks at the FACTS on rookie Qb's after 2 full seasons as a starter in the NFL & they are still well below average do they rarely ever actually become top tier Qb's & instead most likely either do not recieve a second contract & or become life long backups...just saying

      So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre.
