The wildest thing about Bryce to me is that he really was the near consensus #1 QB available that year and I went back and watched a LOT of gameplay and came back saying "HOW?!" I'm watching receivers getting wide ass open and Bryce floating wounded ducks down the field and I'm like what is everyone seeing in this QB that I'm missing because I'm not seeing anything here that will translate to the NFL.

I never saw it either.  I’m convinced he just had some masterful marketing and PR.  Because I remember them talking about if he could’ve came out after his sophomore season - the first he became the starter, he would’ve been the #1 overall pick.  And again, that was still Saban- coached teams where they had a mismatch in their favor at every fuging position, especially the line - which allowed him to run around for an hour and a half until a guy running a 4.3 finally breaks his route off, makes an easy, wide open catch and runs into the end zone.  Bryce was always hype.  I don’t know who his “team” is, but those MFs are excellent at their job.  I certainly hope he is paying them well, because they deserve it.

Then you go watch CJ Stroud slice through an HISTORICALLY good Georgia defense and it should have been an obvious pick. Even if you ranked them 1a and 1b, you go with the bigger QB with the NFL size. That pick will always baffle me. Tepper no doubt in my mind drove that Bryce pick

It wasn't just size for me. Everyone got hung up on the size but I just didn't see anything physically that translated. I didn't see good NFL scrambling speed and I thought the arm talent concern was almost as glaring as the size concern.

It's hilarious fans are hanging their hat on bryce having 3 good games in two years at the end of a lost season. What about the other 33 1/4 games?

Those fans just don't want to admit that we made one of the worst trades in NFL history and picked the wrong QB. The same reason ownership just can't let go of their decision.

We need to put an end to the knock down drag out fights over this. We hope Bryce figures it out quickly but it's his third season. And it isn't just Bryce's job that's on the line here. His play affects the rest of the roster and other players careers. And it makes it even worse that our org made zero effort to put any level of competition in the QB room. We have to start being a serious franchise. It's time for new life in the QB room beginning with the upcoming draft. From there let them compete.

early but who in the upcoming class are you watching for? I know all eyez are on Arch but ive heard mixed things

    • With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.
    • Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.
    • Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
