Well, our actual best WR is also part of why he was wide open, as they had him doubled with bracketed coverage instead of one of them keeping an eye on Rico running right past them all into the open space.

And he caught it when it got there.

Not sure it's hate as much as nerves.

There is a large portion of the fan base (myself included) that is 100% convinced he'll never be a legitimately good starting QB in this league.

While sure, I'd love it if he just flipped a switch and becomes one, as it's the quickest way for us to get back to relevance.  We're nervous when he puts up the one decent game because it might trick the team into thinking he can still become something and it gives him an extra year that he shouldn't get.

It's not rooting against him, it's fear that he's going to do what he did last year, just enough to get another season that he shouldn't be getting.

I don't think it is shocking that when his supporting cast plays well, he plays better.  We have more problems than just Bryce.

We seem pretty relevant right now.  Enjoy it.

It is in all our best interests for him to be the guy.

    • I think the first 3 picks will be defensive players this time. At least that's how the draft is falling this year. I would not be shocked at all if our 1st pick is the number one safety in the draft. It appears he will be right there for the taking. 
    • Man oh man. That 8-9 record without a playoff berth puts at 13 if I recall, ahead of both Atlanta and TB with their 8-9 records, due to our weaker SOS.   We might have been in range to deal for that guy. I hope he doesn’t last to 8. And I hope some AFC team picks him. 
    • Cool. I am not wanting to debate or argue it. It is mostly my preferences. But a couple of things:  I just don’t think he sees the middle of the field well. But besides that I would rather spend a 1st round pick at different offensive positions if we went offense, otherwise we have neglected defense something fierce the last few years. Last 1st rounder was Horn. That’s like 5 years ago now.   Investments… gee the last 4 drafts we have used a 2, a 2, a low 1st and a top ten pick on WR. Bryce has been here three years, three of those picks were specifically for him.  And assets, I don’t think you are counting the haul we gave for the QB position. That counts and it was huge.   Add that up and add the Burns cap space we freed up when we traded him. We bought two guards and used the savings on them. Not on the defense.  I mean, that is a lot of investment in the offense when you put all that in a sack and weigh it.    peace. Appreciate your post.
