you can clown him for the deep ball to Tmac he actually got off.  Tmac had the defender beat over the top.  Tmac had to hit the breaks and come to a complete stop and wait on it to come down.  Then it becomes a 50/50 ball we thankfully got PI on. 

you can't clown him for the one he didn't get off....you just can't assume he would have made a good throw if he got it off

You're not talking about this play where Bryce got clotheslined while trying to throw it, are you? Great adjustment by TMac to one hand it even with DPI. Not quite sure how folks can use this play to dog on TMac or Bryce, but go off?

He was the 8th player taken in the draft and the first true WR taken off the board. 

I saw what he did in the pre-season (camp doesn't count or we'd thing Bryce was great) and it was nothing really. Pretty much what we got from everyone. 

Right now, he's meh. He can certainly prove me wrong.

Kelvin Benjamin was lighting it up once upon a time. So did Keary Colbert. Meh until proven otherwise.

No matter how strong his Bro vibe is, his game has been uninspiring so far. Light it up man, that's what we picked you to do. One handed no-catches and no YAC isn't going to impress anyone.

 

Guy is on pace for a rookie season of 85 catches for 1,156 yards after Bryce looked like complete utter garbage and he "lost" a 30+ yard catch in which he drew a PI but maybe still made the catch (plus another 15 yarder negated due to a meaningless penalty, add just that 15 yarder and he's on pace for 102 rec and 1,400+ yards).

But sure, he's meh and uninspiring, okay.

Canales confirmed that TMac ran the wrong route and was supposed to set the pick for XL on the 4th & 1 call.

Also said that Bryce's throw was a miscommunication as he thought XL was going to go to the back pylon rather than the front.

Said TMac played fast, looked comfortable 1-on-1 outside, moved him around a little bit, was on the same page as Bryce timing wise, ran a beautiful route on the potential TD that got broken up. Gave the team a chance to have explosives down the field while also being a consistent target.

Game one is a bit early for the "on pace" thing. 

Jacksonville would be "on pace" for 3400 yards of rushing this season...

"on pace" after one game is kinda silly. Derrick Henry is on pace for over 3000 yards rushing and 17 fumbles. 

doesn't really matter though. Defenses are going to take Tet away and make Renfrow and XL beat them. He'll get tons of garbage time crossing routes for ten yards though. Hopefully he avoids the Bryce young hospital balls.

This is bullshit to cover for Bryce. Miscommunication or not, anyone under 15 feet tall wasn't catching that ball at the back pylon.

Once XL gets out there he was likely supposed to climb since JT0 would've ended up at the front pylon at the end of his route. Makes sense with the way things were drawn up.

Doesn't mean the throw was any better, but it can be both a bad throw as well as a miscommunication. It just might not have been egregious as some of the more frustrated folks might have felt.

Do we really need 7 pages of love for a receiver who had 5 catches for 68 yards?  We're there flashes and positives?  Definitely.   Were there mistakes and things he messed up on,  yep.  The known strengths were on display as were the known question marks.   I will be interested to see how he looks matched up against a good physical corner.  In the end it was a positive debut that showed flashes though.

That ball landed in the third row of the stands. If trying to paint that as a communication and a "missed throw" is the best defense there is no defense. XL would've literally had to have been over 10' tall with a kangaroo's vertical to attempt to make a play on that. And even then, go back and watch. The ball still wasn't at the back pylon. It went through the side of the endzone. Even the manufactured excuse doesn't line up.

I mean, when it's Bryce throwing the ball managing 5 catches for 68 yards is pretty impressive.
