Did We Improve From Last Week Or Not?

Some players did better. Gross stepped it up, and that was an improvement. But I was never really worried about that to begin with.

Unfortunately, some of his contemporaries inherited his problem with some stupid penalties.

Was it 3 false starts in a row on a 4th down punt attempt?

The defense showed once again that they have the ability to create pressure. Nick Hayden's sack was a pleasent surprise. Everette Brown was lights out. Beason was all over the field and playing out of his skull--but we wouldn't expect less.

I look at Preseason as individual tryouts Pugh's and Defensive Moore showed me something. Think both should make the team. WR's none impressed think Zod nailed it and we will be getting a veteran before the regular season with what we have now we wont get far. We also need a backup Center. Fix these problems and we will be fine. Running game is great and we also havent seen Moore and Clausen with Smitty this year. Defense is set.

we've been playing against some blitz happy 3-4 teams and it's shown. Adding in that we don't really prepare too much for these teams it's making passing the ball pretty hard.

The Titans should be a lot better hopefully. The O-line will be mano-a-mano instead of having to worry about scheme.

The D is really impressive right now. The Jets aren't a powerhouse but 9 points is 9 points.

Pugh looked awesome.

Forgot about the center issue.

That's what I think could really change the face of this offense. I was optimistic about Moore after seeing how he was able to involve Smith in the offense last year.

You've pretty much got the rest right, also.

Yeah, that's my thinking. We will see with Titans if we have an offense or not, unless the Titans defense has risen to the level of the last two teams. If they have I guess we will have to go into the season blind on how good/bad we really are.

The offense struggles I think because we develop no chemistry. Receivers get shuttled in and out which gives the guys no "go to guy". I can't believe I am saying it but honestly if Jarrett had played more I think he would have done fine and we would have moved the ball. He looked very good tonight. LaFell and Moore didn't really. After that first catch by Moore, he didn't do much else.

From my view in the stands he still ran routes gingerly and didn't get all that much seperation. Once again his hands are outstanding.

Right now he's our most reliable receiver because of his hands. It's crazy. IF you can get the ball to him he will catch it.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By Mr. Scot · Posted

      They're examples of denying reality. Here are some others: ,- Bryce is the worst QB in the NFL right now (no he isn't) - Bryce is the worst QB in NFL history (no he's not; that's stupid) - Well then Bryce is at least the the worst QB in the league over the last three years (nope, he's actually improved a lot since year one, which was a turbulent year anyway) - That's not true, he hasn't Improved one but since his rookie year (oh come on) 🙄 - Well, even if he did, we can't win with him (obviously we can) - Yeah but not unless everyone else is damn near perfect (think the game film from our wins this year would back that up?) - Even so, we won those games in spite of him (officially the stupidest argument available) And no, those are made up. You can find those quotes and other equally moronic statements in various threads around the board. I know some folks always need to characterize whatever they're against as the worst thing in existence. It's hyperbole, and it's hypersilly. Likewise, you've got some who are so absolutely emotional about it that even if you think Bryce isn't good enough (which I do) they'll still call you a stan if you don't agree to label him the lousiest passer in existence 🙄 It's just dumb, and it's not realistic. But on the flipside, here are some statements which are; - Bryce is indeed capable of both playing in, and winning, an NFL game. Not on a consistent level though, and consistency is huge. - He is also capable of completing mid-range and even some deep passes; hell, he threw a beauty this past Sunday  - Yes, he has improved over his rookie season and over last year. Arguing against that is disingenuous. - Believe it or not, other players are the roster do make mistakes in games also.  - And lastly, while I know it hurts some people's narrative and arguments, Bryce does indeed deserve credit for the winning games he's played in this season. ... Every single one of those statements is true. And since i acknowledge all that, I must be in favor of keeping him in place then Except I'm not 😕 ... Don't know of anyone who doesn't think he'll get the fifth year option. Not ready to guarantee anything beyond that, though. So bottom line: Yeah, Bryce is fully expected to be our quarterback through next year. If there were a logical, realistic path to acquire a more capable starter and transition Bryce to a backup I'd be elated, but that's a pipe dream. This where we're at  I don't **** it, you don't like it, others don't either. But here We are so let's make the best of it that we can.

      Let's be real. Signing Matt Kalil who was at the time inconsistent at best was always an extremely risky move and largely initiated by the fact he was related to one of our most prominent players Ryan Kalil. Memories get fuzzy the longer time passes I guess. Go watch some old Panthers games with Ted Ginn nearly losing us games. Then watch Cam Newton keep going back to him again and again and again. Then read all the Xavier Legette criticism while making excuses for Bryce being swept by rookie 2nd round pick Tyler Shough. Throwing TMac under the bus is just further proof how deranged the Bryce Young defense force has become. Bryce Young can barely compete in this gutter iteration of the NFC South. Let's see him take this WR core to the playoffs in an NFC South with Drew Brees and Matt Ryan
