Chuba to IR

I’m ok with it just be competitive 

Honestly, I am not sure that is likely to happen minus Chuba. I suspect the coaching staff will compensate by going hardcore passing(60+%) over these last two contests and that is really not our identity as a team yet. IMO.

I hope we at least see them battle like they did against Dallas versus some of the early season stompings. 

I also hope we don't kill all Bryce's momentum in these last two games.

I won't lie, very nervous about these last two games now.

It's not all on Bryce in that regard. When our coaching staff goes heavy passing attack, across Dalton and Bryce, it is rarely a recipe for success. We just don't have the personnel for it. 

Our pass catchers lack elite talent and our OL is solid in pass blocking but dominant in run blocking. Without a credible run threat, the whole offense is substantially less capable.

We just have to hope Boone and Blackshear can hit these holes that OL is making enough to keep the offensive playcallers from utterly abandoning the run or starting to get too gimmicky with the playcalling to compensate.

I just saw him being listed as questionable as of Friday. I(and I guess a lot of people) must have missed that. Damn.

Yeah he has been listed as questionable since Tuesday or Wednesday if I remember correctly. This game will get ugly by the 2nd quarter if we have no run game at all.

I guess he must have gotten banged up against Arizona. Or these just could be nagging injuries that they finally said "fug it" to.

I certainly hope so. We're going to find out. This to me is the biggest test of the season for Bryce. He doesn't even need to win. But we need to look competent and at least vaguely formidable. He's a first overall pick.

He came up limping at one point during the game but I cannot remember the exact play. He seemed to have shook it off and finished the game. I guess it caught up with him or as you say it's probably just shutting him down to avoid making it worse.

    • since I agree with him I will jump in and say we don’t use the TE enough to value one as a 1st. One of these threads just today people are posting pointing out that Bryce can’t see the middle of the field which is where a lot of TE eat. He likes to throw picks there too, I wonder why (can’t see). It just doesn’t help us that much.  And personally, just my opinion, Bryce has had enough top level investment dedicated to the pass game. Get a speedy WR later? I am fine with it and think that is all we really need anyway. Another 1st round pick? Hell no if I get to say. Which I don’t but no one else does either    As far as a TE, a pass catching RB would be of more use than a TE I think. We visited with one I think maybe Sr Bowl, that was a WR in school u til just this year when they switched him to RB full time. A guy like that could be put to a lot of use on these little 5 yard passes Bryce is so fond of throwing,  It is just past time to put some real talent into the defense for once and I want our top picks to focus there, personally. I would say unless we have a situation like last year where the difference in pure value is stark, I am pissed if we pass on a quality defensive player for another pass catcher.
