Summary....

What was it like getting the phone call from Carolina.

BSP: Great. I flew down last week, traveled to Tampa and have been studying 14 hrs a day.

How was it finding out the news you were starting?

BSP: I was not surprised when I found out (?????)

What has your mindset been like the last few months.

BSP: I have been preparing all summer training with high school kids hoping for a call. I had already started thinking about life after football.

What are your strongest QB skills?

BSP: I dont like to hold it, make quick decisions and get it into playmakers hands.

What have you been seeing watching Ravens D film?

BSP: They are good (laughs) and fast.

How was it playing behind Big Ben, Warner & McNair?

BSP: It was good, taught me play action and speed.

What is it like going from team to team?

BSP: Arizona & Pitt are the same. Panthers playbook is run heavy.

How much did playing at Boston College help your pro career.

BSP:Good, they run a pro style offense.

Have you found good food here?

BSP: I have not had time, been at the facility studying.

What was your thoughts on Carolina before coming here?

BSP: They play a physical game run the ball and use play action. The record does not indict the talent on this team.

What is the atmosphere in the locker room?

BSP: From what I have seen everyone is still playing hard.

What is your response to people who don't want you to play?

BSP: I understand but I hope it is nothing personal towards me. It is not a sign of this team giving up. My goal is to win this weekend.

Thoughts on Pike, Clausen & AE?

BSP: They are young, inexperienced but have talent. It was tough for Pike not to get the start this week but we get along well. I am not sure if AE is a QB or WR (WTF?????)

    • Here's the thing. You compared him to Jake. Jake was signed to the practice squad out of college. Bryce was the number 1 overall. Their expectations are wildly different and so are their contracts. You can talk all you want about what a player is and where they are now and all this other mumbo jumbo, but Jake never had a 5th year option and we weren't talking about the possibility of a top 5 QB contract extension at the end of his 3rd year. What he was expected to be matters because we invested heavily at a cost of future capital, including a 2nd round pick this year, for him to be that guy. The cost to add Bryce took value from the team. To be worth it, he has to add that value back.  Actually, I don't prefer yards, TDs, or only INTs. All those stats by themselves are misleading which is why I said you have to use a lot of different stats. ADOT - Average depth of target.  Completion %. Pretty obvious until you factor in ADOT. 0-5 has a lot higher C% than 10-15%. Hang time. If a pass is in the air for 4.6 seconds vs 3.1 on a 40 yards throw, that gives a DB a lot of time to correct. Is it a loft or is it a laser.  EPA - Expected points added. A way of measuring QB efficiency on every play.  CPOE - ranking pass completions based on several factors, not just the throw.  There's obviously more, but those are the more common.  Typical stats don't show everything. You need to look all over. Looking at a stat line is lazy. That's why I said, you need to analyze everything. Once you start looking at the numbers you start looking at the player. That's why you follow numbers. They lead you places. You look at what happening when the numbers show you patterns. That's where you start finding the problems that yards, TDs and Ints won't show you.     
    • It's not relevant who wins or loses. It's about actually attempting to get better at the position.
    • Thank you. I don't understand how the Bryce stans don't see this. I've never seen a player get more hyped for doing so little. Honestly it's driving me a little insane.
