Yeah he probably has better chemistry with Dalton with the whole 2nd team snaps thing. Also Raiders have zero tape on Dalton in the preseason but they know he wasn't afraid to chuck it up to AJ Green in Cincy or Olave in NO. You know their secondary is bummed, coaching staff had to spend their Tuesday day off writing a whole new defensive game plan lol. 

Yes they thought this was gonna be a cake walk fresh off their last game. Raider fan podcasters are worried. Don't like bryce was benched.

Here is my new saying:

Better comes from good, worse comes from bad. You want good. 

That's it. 

They will feed off of some good. I hope.

The Raiders have zero film on Dalton and Canales/Idzik, Idzik said that Dalton has a huge vocabulary, play and concept wise, to draw from. (that's not a quote) It sounds like that is a literal 109 item buffet compared to a hot dog with mustard, analogy wise. 

I think look for what the WRs are good at (got a big clue above in that video) If Dalton can truly execute even at a C+ NFL level there will be much more for everyone to work with. 

I haven't felt any positive anticipation running up to Sunday since the 1st game of 2023. And wouldn't even call that positive, it was the unveiling of what the Bryce Young era would be, how it was going to look. Damned if it wasn't exactly how it was gonna look.

Really looking forward to viewing an NFL looking offense from our side.

I love it. My hope back in 2020 when it was apparent that Cam wasn't in the equation was that they'd bring in Jameis and let him wing it all over the place. 

 

He is not a bad player all the time. And the overlooked upside of guys put under different coaches is they will have seen a lot. So they will get to the point they can get up to speed in a short-ish time with a variety of situations. I'm saying he is probably one of those guys.

 That speech where he was eating his fingers or whatever the hell that was? That's my image when I think of him, can't help it. I wish he hadn't have dome that.

When you get your opportunities XL, don't drop the ball. 1st round pick WR is expected to be an immediate threat. Especially, when they trade up to get you.

You should be better than Chark and KB in their first years with the Panthers. You need to be better than Colbert in his first year. Definitely need to be better than Gettis and LaFell in their first years.

Clausen, LaFell and Gettis in 2010 looked better with Jeff Davidson calling the plays than Young, XL and Mingo with more experience and a better play caller.

2010 trio cost a 2nd, 3rd and 6th round pick. 2024 trio cost 4x 1st round picks and 2x 2nd round picks

Due to Young and Mingo, XL has to pay off bigger in his first season than any 1st or 2nd round WR the Panthers ever drafted to make up for this highly draft leveraged franchise.

I mean I know he the 2 fumbles in the first game, but we really don’t how good or bad mingo is considering he had Bryce throwing to him last year.

    • I could be waaaaaaay off about Kon. I do fault myself into, to borrow a NFL phrase heavily "RAS" nerd on players, too much. There are PLENTY of athletic freak shows that are playing overseas(or Amazon delivery) cause they never figured out NBA ball. I can easily miss seeing the talent. Plus did he only have 2 dunks on the season??(is that for real??) I didn't watch over a few hours of duke, but not one point did I think "That Kon guy is a top 4 pick in the upcoming draft". IMO I still foresee Ball bringing the ball up, doing his weak isolation game and never even looking for Kon. That's his best trait according to everyone, shooting right? I do not see ball, bridges, miller or even williams making the extra pass to Kon for him to shoot a 3.  Then defense-wise, Im not ready to type the amount of questions I foresee in his ability for guarding NBA SGs or bench SFs for that matter. Not that NBA players care to defend, but still..... I just feel he's a bad fit for the current hornets, trades are taking place tho... Liam to me is a decent comp for Kon and he fell some, but was a 29 overall pick. Still around 13-21 was the good solid range for Liam and I thought the same for Kon. This is just a classic case of I need to see it. It add to this, Kon is like garlic. Ball is like sugar and Miller is like flour. Mix it together and chef Lee is not going to get me to eat that dish..... Honestly I don't know why Im this vocal about Kon. In past years I would be patience and not post and see what the kid has. The other side, insert classic white boy terms here- _____, ______, _______< etc >. Hornets do desperately need them. His crafty back door cuts, his willingness to stay a extra 2 hours to refine lees plays, keep playing with bruised limbs. I heard from many reports he's mentally tough and hornets by all gods need that. God they are such pussys.  I hope Im wrong and if so, I will give Kon his just props.
