Don't know if I can watch more.

Every commercial break, my service talks about a San Fran documentary pulling Montana for Steve Young and a QB controversy, then Micah P, and then maybe season opener with Rams.. and then some other boring generic European soccer clips. And repeat if the break is longer... 

Gah..  I prefer the US commercials. I want them. Bad. 😂

I'd prefer anything over the neverending cycle of pharma ads showing people having the time of their lives with happy music playing while a laundry list of atrocious side effects is read by the narrator.

Yeah, it has nothing to do with losing year after year and having a 3rd year #1 overall pick QB who we swung a massive franchise crippling trade to get and we're still basically just hoping he's not a bust. Yeah, you're right. It's all my fault. LOL

If you need a place that's all sunshine and rainbows while the world burns around you, I think they made a Discord for that.

Sounds like a lot of cope. Why don’t you just create another thread for everybody who doesn’t like your shtick? There’s certainly nothing in between disagreeing with super smart edumacated football savant linville gorge and “all sunshine and rainbows”. As we all know, the only educated opinions are yours, and you certainly bear no blame for bringing down the discourse by immediately launching into character attacks instead of just talking like a normal human. Reddit mod level.

Didn’t he say the plan was just to run them only in the first 2 and sit the last? 

I might have that wrong.  Hope I do or he junks the old plan.

But the it’s just going to be a repeat of last preseason.  Where his starters only see success vs backup units going in 

That’s what most of the league has been doing since going to 3 games.

So, is Bryce going to struggle to start and then pick it up, and we have the conversation we had all offseason again? 
 

This hasn’t been a good preseason for the starters. Right now, I’m ready to move on. 


I think the entire O is going to struggle.

The oline appears to have taken a step back. Zero run game over these two games.

But yeah, could end the season with ‘hope’ vs certainty.

I tried to provide you guys with what you wanted and you still didn't like it. But again, that's all my fault. LOL

Why would we want to have a developmental QB with potential on the depth chart? Bryce is fragile and Tepper committed this franchise to Bryce.

IMO we should have had Bryce competing with other young QBs since day one. Warned about Bryce before the draft. Dalton & Plummer does nothing to hedge against a bust in Bryce.

 

I've been saying this all year and even as recent as a month ago and people poo'd my common sense posts about Dalton and the QB room.

Again, this is why I have been droning on that we should’ve taken Milton or Sanders over the last two years, because I am 99.9% sure Bryce’s run to end the season was fool’s gold.  We have a much bigger sample size of what to expect from him before that stretch.

You are putting a lot of opinion on a very very small sample size.... especially since the actual starting 5 haven't played yet...  guarantee Lewis goes week 1.

      Rookie season being key to uour argument. I didn't at all mislead about the talent Cam had to work with. Kalil was a great center. Olsen was a great TE. Our WRs were probably the worst in the league. Cam still won MVP, we went 15-1, and we went to the SB. Your attempt to bring up Cam to defend Bryce is desperate and clownish. Bryce has more talent to work with and has done WAY less.

      Not exactly sure that is an honest assesment of the talent he had to work with that year. Olsen had over 1100 yards that season making the PB, Stewart had close to 1100 total yards also going to the PB. He had Kalil at C who went to the PB, Trai Turner at RG who also went to the PB, and Michael Oher at LT who played well enough that the Panthers offered him a new contract the following year. I wouldn't call that a trash OL. He also played with a defense that was stacked with talent as well.   "The thing we are doing better this time around is actually surrounding our #1 overall draft pick QB with talent vs. asking him to completely carry the offense. I just hope that effort is leading us to realize that the guy isn't even good enough to get carried." Please.... Did you not read the list of names Newton had to work with his rookie season. I guess you missed it so I will post it again for you... Steve Smith (PB), Greg Olsen (PB), Brandon LaFell, Ted Ginn JR, Deangelo Williams (PB), Jonathan Stewart (PB), Jordan Grossn (PB), Ryan Kalil (PB) on the offensive side and then he had Luke Kuechly (PB), Jon Beason (PB), Thomas Davis (PB), Star Lotulelei, Kawann Short ( PB ),Charles Johnson, Greg Hardy (PB ), Mike Mitchell, Josh Norman (PB)  For comparison, here is who Young had his first year.  Chuba Hubbard, DJ Chark, Jonathan Mingo, Adam Thielen, Hayden Hurst, Ikem Ekwonu, Chandler Zavala, Bradley Bozeman, Nash Jensen and Taylor Morton. Not a single PB player on the list and most of them aren't even playing any longer. Additionally, his HC was fired during the season and the defense was as bad as the offense.  You might not like the comparison but saying Newton had to completely carry the offense isn't exactly fair to the 4 pro bowlers on offense who played with him that year.
