I know most people here are sold on BY after those few decent games he had.

 

I am not

This year he has weapons, he has an oline, he has a good play caller, so this really is make or break year imo

Well good news is if it all falls apart this year we have options next draft.

Yup, after the first couple of weeks I thought we had ruined him. Clearly zero trust in his OL and receivers and a lot of bad habits developed. Classic case of a guy that shouldn’t have started year one, not because he lacked the talent, but because the team around him was so clearly terrible and it hurt his development. I still don’t know who to blame for that debacle, I think Reich is a better coach than that even if he’s no Vince Lombardi, and nothing really got better once he was fired. Thomas Brown looks like he might have been a pretty major culprit, he didn’t appear to do Caleb Williams any favors either and that was with a far superior supporting cast. Feeling a lot more optimistic and I think this could be a fun season.

Agreed I think confidence is a big part of a players ability. Confindence in scheme, teammates and even himself.

So I am cautiously optimistic but still MUCH MUCH more to prove to be the long term answer.

Reich tried to bench him and was over ridden.  He came out of training camp knowing he was in a world of hurt.  His mechanics and footwork put him behind the 8 ball from the jump.  Even in the video posted he is still doing his jump throw.  Thats not going to consistently work in the nfl, hes got to clean that up.  We all are pulling for him but going into year 3 the excuses are in the rear view mirror.   With everything they have invested in bryce its time to win.

The jump pass doesn't bother me. Cam had an MVP season with people complaining about his footwork and back foot throws. The biggest thing to me that got Bryce over the hump was confidence. He went from never throwing beyond 5-10 yards to leading the league in big time throws after his benching. Once the confidence is there and Bryce is being the Bryce from Alabama, everything else is gravy.

Making sure he carries the confidence into next season is paramount. If he shows up scared we are fuged. We need to be giving him constant bjs all offseason to make sure he keeps a pep in his step.

      Sorsby to the supplemental draft

      He doesn't seem good enough to justify the risk

      In that case its in his best interest to fully recover.  We are in a much better situation to judge his condition. It would be more risky for another team to throw money at him.  Taking a reasonable deal from us seems the most likely outcome if he is on track to return.

      Run Threat Rate -- is this good?

      By Khyber53 · Posted

      Looks like we're fifth in running plays/play action plays when in the lead and about 10th in the league when we fall behind.  The biggest thing I take from this is not that we drop off like that, because every team does, but that we drop off so much. A lot of the best teams don't  drop off much, depending on the game situation, preferring to stick to their game plan through out. Some of those are very good teams. Baltimore barely deviates from their run/action heavy plan. At the other end, KC also barely deviates, but they have one of the least run oriented attacks in the league by these stats. On the other side, there are teams that make even bigger shifts (based on last year's performance) and they are teams that for various reasons found themselves in desperation attempts. Dallas, Atlanta, the Browns, Bucs and Bengals were all literally throwing out their game plans and trying to either lean on their top end QB or were just frantically trying to create something downfield. Considering the years of us completely abandoning the run (oh those Matt Rhule days), maybe we are starting to stabilize. Don't even get me started on the Reich days...
