Greg Hardy Needs to be the Full-Time Starter

naw, I love watching Brown dance his way to no mans land every play.

Yeah, nothing like watching his world famous spin move ending with the OT easily grabbing him and stopping him mid-spin, leaving him backpedaling with his back towards the OT and QB. Should be coached more to all youths coming up in the game!

I like the roatation. It seems Hardy was mentioned alot and yes he is good, But most teams use a rotation on the line and our's seemed to work pretty well yesterday.

I like the rotation but I agree with Diddy I think he needs to be the stater in the ROTATION. That would be much more effective he's a beast but yes we do have to rotate to keep them all fresh

I don't know...

He does have impact but are you really certain he is more consistent than Brayton who is getting double teamed a lot?

He is definitely having more impact than Brown thus far though.

Yeah I honestly think Brown will be released or not re-signed when his contract is up here and will end up being a OLB in a 3-4. He's looking pretty useless here as of now.

I appreciate Brayton's effort and his ability against the run. And despite his appearance of being fairly slow and awkward, he has seemed to keep contain fairly well. All that being said, Hardy has made several awesome plays on the edge in run support and is a far superior pass rusher than Brayton, so I would like to think he'd be quite an upgrade overall. Even if he's not starting, I don't understand why he's not seeing much more playing time.

Why? Starting only means you are definitely in for one play. I agree with the previous poster, I like the rotation as it now stands. If you noticed, we were getting consistent pressure on the QB in the second half. Even if we didn't get many sacks, we were getting in their faces. Best we have looked all year in that regard I think.

    • His footwork has been discussed many times over related to not just within the pocket but the quality of his drop backs and how while his receivers have been an issue his own footwork has created issues with his receivers. It is a mutual give and take dynamic after all. As far as his deep passing goes I will happily admit I saw some very impressive long throws from Bryce later in the season and I said so at the time and I'm still saying so now. That doesn't mean that there still aren't issues and beyond some instances of him flat out missing receivers deep that he knows he needs to get corrected I think there are still some throws to the sideline that defenses are going to test Bryce on early and often and until he can prove he can beat defenses on those throws consistently they will play him the same way. As far as talk of Bryce being top ten and the metrics that define that different people are going to have different answers and I've said before after the conclusion of the 2024 season that I'm going to try to put yardage aside in some cases and just focus on what Bryce is doing both between the 20's moving the ball and how our redzone scoring percentage is looking. The biggest thing I'm looking for this season is scoring points. Not just field goals. Touchdowns. If the offense is moving consistently and reaching the end zone more often than not and not squandering drives and settling for field goals then I am going to be content for the time being. I do not expect miracles this season. I expect development competiveness and both sides of the ball particularly the offensive given the investments we've made trending upward. And no blowout losses. I don't think that's an unreasonable ask do you agree? 🫡
    • It's also worth noting that Cam himself said that he felt safer when running vs. sitting in the pocket because he could see the contact coming and could better prepare for it. A QB running the ball doesn't have to be a sledgehammer. He just has to be effective.
    • That Falcons game is about as good as it gets. Especially on the road. I know the Falcons defense was bad but he was cooking with Coker, an undrafted rookie get the bulk of the receptions. If your QB has 5 TDs and 0 turnovers he is playing like a top QB, yardage be damned. The big question for me is how consistently can be play the whole season?  I don’t expect a game like that every week, but I also don’t want to see any performances like the pre benching or that Cowboys game (which was bad post benching). Bryce’s best shot at being the guy is becoming a mini-Burrow who is about as consistent as you can get at the QB position.  The good news is this QB class should be a fun one. So hopefully Bryce becomes the guy, if not it’s a nice class to let DC pick his QB and they should come into a great situation with a good OL, RB, young talented WRs etc…
