Anyone else shamelessly 'pro tank'? (Lay on the floor for Sheduer)


Recommended Posts

Call me an optimist but I always go into a season thinking we have a chance to at least make some noise. So much parody in the nfl and you can’t see player development until a few games into the season. 

whether Bryce succeeds or not, all the reports that have come out confirm that he was not put in an ideal situation to succeed last year. On top of that our drafting may have been the worst in the league over the last few years. 

Let’s see what a revamped OL looks like with some new weapons before deciding to write off this season. If we start 1-4 then my mindset will go directly towards ranking the rest of the season

Best thing we can hope for, even if I don’t think it’s likely, is Bryce shows strong improvement. The team protects him and begins to grow but we still go 3-14 and land the #1 pick with a couple QB hungry teams at #2 and #3. Sanders or another QB blows up and we get a kings ransom for #1. 
 

That being said I think Bryce implodes, we win 5 games with the help of Dalton and land squarely in purgatory at #4 pick while the team sucks.

as of today? No, I wouldn't want anything to do with Sanders. 

could that change? Sure.  But he would have to continue to grow and change. 

Right now, I don't think Sanders is a good leader.  Think he is a me-centric spoiled kid.  I think he is risk adverse to make his stat sheet look as good as it can.....and whatever his OL is, I think his present day style of play makes his OLs look worse.  So if they are garbage, he will make it super garbage. 

I'd much rather Bryce shut me up this year.  While Bryce isn't my textbook QB....he is an easier human to root for.

You're in luck.Sanders highest projection is pick 4.

    • 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.
