It's disappointing that he at least didn't have the awareness to lie. Even if what he says is true surely he has to understand it comes across terribly. He's been performing terribly so at least say that missing a couple weeks with a sore hammy has given me the chance to really dive into the playbook again and get more comfortable with my understanding of the overall offensive scheme. Anything sounds better than basically saying these last couple weeks have been an utter waste.

The question was disrespectful and probably caught him off guard

How was it disrespectful and how was he caught off guard? He's a struggling young player who has missed a couple of weeks due to injury or "injury". Other than "how is the hamstring feeling?" what else are they supposed to ask him? If he didn't expect to be asked that sort of question then that's a failure of our PR team and probably his agent as well. They absolutely should've given him a heads up that it's almost certainly coming.

I was already out on him after last year.  You can't be a #1 WR without good hands, and if you are entering the NFL with bad hands, ain't much is gonna change that.

But this speaks VOLUMES about where he is mentally.  We would be smart to go ahead and move on in the offseason.

The people talking about how good XL will look in some other offense or with some other QB, just remember this is the same horseshit we have heard for Mingo, TMJ, Funchess, Colbert, etc, etc, etc.

 

Just realize you are gonna seem just as foolish as all these other times when this guy is a resounding bust.

Ok, I’m beginning to not like this jackass. How about some stock answer about taking the time off to study defensive formations and ask questions and study film? Oh and how much you missed playing the game alongside your brothers. Maybe he really is just stupid.

I kind of get the feeling all this publicity he got this offseason has made him feel like hes fine with or without football.

Joe Burrow was playing bad before he got hurt, you think anyone's going to ask him if he learned anything while he was injured? It's disrespectful because he wasn't benched for performance reasons, but the question is insinuating that he was.  It's kinda obvious

Stop. You're comparing a proven high level pro to a second year player who had a subpar rookie season and was practically nonexistent this year before going out. You're massively reaching to create a narrative here. It was a fair question given the situation.

Still my point is valid, he wasn't benched he was hurt.  He had very little play in the preseason, which is on him and Canales, he was sluggish and bad his first game and played faster the second game but every throw to him was ass.  Let's see him with a somewhat competent QB who can at least deliver the ball on time.  Every catch with this team has to be a circus catch because Bryce's accuracy is poo.

      XL is a Lost Cause

      By SmokinwithWilly · Posted

      I agree with this and I think it's worth mentioning too that Bryce is not consistent on his placement and especially velocity and that in large part is driven by his footwork. We all know XL doesn't have the best hands and I don't know that he can overcome that. Cam always had the heater that just hit your hands and sank into your grip, where Bryce has some that are harder thrown, some soft. Bryce stepping into a pass looks so much different than that hop throw thing he does. I think XL really needs to hit the jugs machine and start learning how to catch all these different touch passes. TMac and Coker don't have these issues. If XL doesn't get some work in he's going to be out of the league in the next couple of years.

      I think most people like XL from a personal standpoint. I don't think he's stupid either. Although if we are being realistic he is lacking in football IQ at this point in time and it cannot be disputed that he has not taken working on his craft seriously at all times given the body of work on the field. It speaks for itself. I myself have defended him at times given the circumstances of our QB room. But he is now in his third year and 25 years old. We are not in a position as a franchise to go around babying anyone especially first round draft picks. He needs to take his position and his football career seriously or he is going to end up selling used cars somewhere. I hope he realizes this and takes an extended break from social media because that mess certainly isn't going to increase his net worth if he ends up out of the league. And these hanger on types will disappear quick too once that money dries up and it surely will eventually. We'll see how he responds.
