its funny how fast people are forgetting how bad Bryce looked so i'm happy with the team even with the drops

I haven't forgotten that. It's why I sometimes can't believe what I'm seeing now. 

What the hell happened? 😳

I’m having fun watching deep into the 4th quarter with legit opportunities to win.  Feels like ‘02.

My minimum requirement is *make me want to at least watch the entire game*

They weren’t doing that for a long time.

Today was at least watchable and fun.  We shoulda won, the future looks reasonable now.

Does he though? Why not have the 'it' factory earlier in the games?

I haven't watched the past several games for various reasons so am just playing devil's advocate. From seeing posts this week it sounded ike the team had zero chance and the defense seemed to do enough to win. Better than getting murdered  though.

He has done everything he needed to do. He can't catch the ball,  but that's not his job.

He has been putting the ball exactly where it needed to be. INT today was a fluke.

He has been let down by teammates... especially on crucial drives. He's proving to be as clutch AF. Same with Theilen. Chuba has been, but then there was that costly fumble last week.

Game plan and play calls have been good, but Bryce is making poo happen or playing well enough to make poo happen but we've got too many guys that choke at key moments.

Not Bryce, though...he's got his head where it needs to be. He's the QB we need in clutch moments.

We should have and could have beaten the chiefs, bucs, and eagles. We should be on a 5 game streak winning streak.

I feel like that's coming, though. Next year we tear it up.

At least we’re not the Giants

 

look at the south....Saints trending down.  Falcons trending down.  Bucs basically floating dead in the water with a chance to improve with Baker....but I'd rather have Bryce.

Our GM ain't perfect but he's better than his predecessors.  I believe we had a good draft.  And while we have hung with the Chiefs and Eagles, we have a great position in the draft.  Plus 2 4ths and 3 5ths.  

The future is bright.  Improved progress and we can compete for the division title next year.

    • What I'm saying is that he wouldn't be on my board to be drafted. He'd be on the "if these guys go undrafted, give them a call" board.
    • Like I said before, I don't get the "only as a UDFA" sentiment, you have to keep following your board. Now if Pavia falls to what amounts to the supplementary UDFA section of the board, that's great, but if he's sitting at the top when you're picking day three (yes, I can't see him being drafted before day three), then you pull the trigger. Rounds 5-7 don't generally provide keepers anyway, you can use them for players that you want to take a closer look at that you may be able to develop.  Pavia may not translate to the pros. Nobody would bet anything of value on it. But, he was highly productive in college due to his play extension abilities, "body torque" mechanics on short and intermediate throws, and good accuracy on said throws. And, he has that dawg in him to be sure.  All that being said, Drew Allar will probably be able to be had on day three, and if it comes down to it--due to nothing but my prejudice against short, weak-armed QBs--I'd pick Allar.
    • Yeah, receivers contracts are crazy, and it's probably not going to change. You almost have to take your swings--keep some picks at WR churning between rounds one through three in order to keep your costs down and give you options at contract time. Creating that value surplus appears to be more important at WR and all the premium positions than getting a non-premium position player who generally are just easier to replace as it pertains to value. The holy grail is to hit on a premium position late, but due to the gradually declining hit rate on days one and two that drops off a cliff day three, you basically have to get lucky.
