I don't agree with the incredibly unrealistic expectations some fans might have. The defense ended up being without more than half of its starters that they were looking at leading into the offseason (Derrick Brown, Shy Tuttle, DJ Wonnum, Shaq Thompson, Josey Jewell, Jordan Fuller, Dane Jackson). To make up for it, Evero is leaning heavily on the bend but don't break philosophy.

That side of the ball could definitely use more talent. The way they've performed with the secondary and pass rush in flux the way it has has been impressive to me. They've been starting games with solid energy but you can tell they're worn down even with the offense starting to hum. Depth is being tested early... but hopefully that means getting all of these guys back from injury will help with the talent level.

Can’t remember the last time Evero dialed up a blitz that had me thinking woah that was awesome. He’s allergic to creative blitzing.  When you lack talent, sometimes you have to orchestrate pressure through creative scheming but he’s not capable of that. 

This I agree with.  An aggressive creative DC can scheme up pressure from time to time the same way a good OC can scheme receivers open.  I think Evero is a pretty decent DC, I just personally prefer a more aggressive style.

The last thing we need to be doing is blowing up the defensive side of the ball and starting from scratch there again next year, just when things are being worked out on offense. Evero deserves an off-season where the focus is on that side of the ball, and not shopping in the bargain bin for cast-offs.

He absolutely will not be here next season - by his own choice.

      I get it's subjective and I said "PFF rated him as" one of the top deep ball passers during that time, which is an accurate statement.  They are still a group of professionals that look at film and data in order to make their judgements/ratings.  These people whose data has been incorporated into a lot of teams' staffs view Bryce's deep throws as some of the best in the league during that stretch.  That tells me that he can probably throw a deep pass vs the Huddle's version of he is small and didn't do it his rookie year so he must not be able to.  That and literally seeing him do it just makes me feel he is more than capable of doing so.   Do you think PFF is skewing their opinion to prop up a QB in a bottom tier franchise?  It's just another group's opinion and I feel is pretty respected around the league currently.  It's not the gospel truth or anything.

      I still remember how happy I was that gettlegut was not the GM once he picked Jones, that was a firing pick and well..... If not for the raiders drafting Clelin Ferrell, it was the biggest draft day mistake in the last 20 some years.

      He had 251 passing yards. 3 passing touchdowns and 2 rushing touchdowns. All in all a very impressive game. Problem is I do not envision his rushing ability translating like that over the course of the upcoming season. Yeah it will be something to account for from time to time but one it's not sustainable and two you don't want to put his durability to the ultimate test against a motivated defender willing to take a penalty and a fine. And plus with our backfield. Two 1k yard rushers. That's what they're here for. Then we have a much improved WR room. That means Bryce has to elevate those passing numbers substantially. The fact of the matter is regardless of circumstances it did take him 23 games to surpass Kyle Allen's single season passing yardage from 13 games in 2020. And that is not a high bar by any means. Whatever QB tier Bryce ends up in from here amongst his peers this upcoming season when it's all said and done it will be with his arm.
