important perspective to have. as easy as the schedule is, it could take 2-3 games for it to start clicking for the young and new ones.

Bryce Young has pretty much been the definition of a slower starter going into every season.  I frankly don't like the fact the "easy" games are upfront. 

plus, the flip side is the Jags are talking about us just like we are them.  And I think they have more proven explosive offensive players.  I think at best, it's a coin flip opener.  Jags probably will be favored by Vegas.

oh i'm sure the jags will be favored, but it's mainly just based on optics. nothing substantive at this point. i mean how could it be anything but that? 

it is funny to hear jags fans talk about this game being a gimme for them. do they need to be reminded that the second half of the season last year the only games they won were against the titans. while they picked up hunter in the draft...i mean is that one guy going to be THE difference between winning and losing this year? 

who else did they pick up? dynami brown? ok...nice pick up, but again...is it enough to drastically turn things around? also, trevor lawrence. when was the last impressive game he had? 

and with a new coach? i just don't see any reason for much optimism.

the Jaguars are basically the Panthers. Bad D.  Inconsistent O.  But I think they are a more threatening O.

Rookie season? He had zero MFL experience and bad coaching

Season 2? He took the off-season off to hang w/ family and friends and play video games and not think football. Plus, getting used to a New coach 

But Dave knew what he was doing. Sat Bryce down, worked on fundamentals (footwork, timing), designed plays that worked with Bryces style and abilities. Was a different Bryce coming off the bench. Everybody saw the improvements

This past off-season? Bryce was working with TMac before the draft even happened. More football-focused. Head is in the game it seems

I dont think Bryce will be as slow as starter this coming season as qe saw in yr 1 and 2.

both had a common theme though (loudly discussed here going into both seasons), unusually light work going into both seasons given what he was.....

again, Mahomes, Allen, etc were getting more preseason reps than Young. 

I hope Canales plays him a lot in this preseason.   3 good NFL games vs the rest of his resume shouldn't put him in the light work tier he has been going into prior seasons with

You guys are expecting/hyping too much for this team as usual. All it take is 1 or 2 key injuries and this team could finish with a worse record than last year. But the offseason is where dreams are made and I certainly do not want to burst your bubble before the season even starts.

That sounds a lot like our story though. We picked up a 1st round WR and a lot of hopes and prayers.

We need some miracles for this D to be significantly better.

To be fair, your definition of "good NFL game" varies from QB to QB.

    • Micron just announced it is leaving the consumer market and Crucial as of February 26 will be no more. While Samsung and SK Hynix are guaranteeing most of its supply to business contracts for AI companies, leaving a tiny supply for its consumer markets. Combined with Micron those three companies make up 96% of the world's Dram supply with almost none of it going to consumers.  It's so bad that Samsung Mobile is having issues getting supply from Samsung DX which is causing internal issues and will lead to a shortage of phones and higher prices in February.  AMD announced a 10% price hike across its product line going forward as of today.   GPU's will go up here shortly, ram has already doubled this year and it will keep going up. Storage has seen a smaller increase but a bigger one is coming for it as the next generation of AI cards are being built that require a ton of HBM on the boards.  Rumors that both AMD and Nvidia will eliminate lower tier GPU's for the next generation if not sooner.  So the end isn't in site and it will totally affect next generation consoles, the PC building and prebuilt markets and everything in-between including cellphones.  Pretty much seeing the end of the main stream gaming industry end before your eyes right now.    Storage pricing doubling to tripling over the next year to two.  Consoles starting at 699.99/799.99 and up for what you would've spent 400 on just a few years ago.   An entry level PC build starting in the 3k range considering the new reality for ram, storage and GPU costs.  The cost to entry will be too high for most consumers after this shift is finished in 2028 and that's if a consumer market even exists by then. 
    • You know who else had a high completion %? Teddy 2 Gloves. He could check down with the best of them.  I'm one of those people that watches and analyzes a lot, my brain does it by default, and it's something that I fully expect our scouts and FO to do religiously. Football is a sport I enjoy, and I actually watch footwork more than most. It drives my wife nuts, especially with our local hockey team. I can tell within a few games usually if a goalie is going to make it or not just by watching their feet. That's why I said stats give you a direction. They help show you where to look. They're a tool. As long as you realize that they're a tool to be used, not relied upon for absolute certainty. I trust my eyes too. And I trust what I'm seeing. 3 years in, and Bryce's footwork and mechanics look almost identical to his rookie season and Alabama. Every time I see that jump pass I want to scream. Or when he squares up to the line of scrimmage to throw a pass instead of stepping into it to drive a throw. He does seem to have some sort of clutch gene, but he also has a WTF gene that rears its ugly head too.
