I will say, we don't have any world beaters but a very complimentary TE room.  

I've been of the impression Ian Thomas severely skewed how people thought of guys that have been respectable in their time here.    

For context- 3 of Tremble's first 4 touches in the NFL were TDs.  The 1 remaining of 4 was a chunk play.  10 TDs in 4 years as our TE2 is not bad, especially considering the coaching and personnel over that time.  And he's made impact plays when called upon.  I have never got the hate on him outside of sharing a room with Ian.  He never elevated to his high round 3 pick, but he's been good enough for how we've used him.

JT looked solid at the end of last year but he's really just a receiving type.  But he showed up in that final ATL win.  I don't know what to think of him yet but he's an alright option to have even if he doesn't turn out to be a top receiving TE.  

Mitch can play all 3 TE spots though.  He's of the LaPorta and Kraft mold which I love. 

Sanders more like a Musgrave, Tremble more like a B Strange.  We'll see but I'm hopeful.  Evans is the type that could free up a roster spot long term and add some disguise-ability to our offense if he can become our TE1.

Yesterday he had all of one reception for 21 yards against a downy soft Dallas defense missing most of its good players. 

He turned upfield and immediately fell down. 

But sure he’s “doing good things.”

He played 58% of our snaps.  I suggest you check it back out.  The catch was fine, but it's what he's doing in the run game that's helping out in 12 personnel.  Him and Tremble did work.

Dallas’ linebackers are worse than the panthers. 

I didn’t realize he thrived at blocking children.

Give me good blockers that catch everything. JT Sanders is a step back in blocking and hands from what we’ve saw from Evans so far. JT is a plus athlete, so is XL. But not being a fundamentally sound football player would limit your role on my team.

    • You're right. And he's been on the upswing, something that's been a long time coming. And over the last few years, we woulda been better with a Trent Dilfer out there considering everything.  But right now, we got a W following a W the week before. It has been a while since we've been there. And we're at .500. I know that's only a C grade right now, but man, after so many F grades in a row... it's kinda refreshing to be here. Is Bryce a long term answer here? He's still got a long way to go. Could he do it? Those three touchdown passes he made were bang on, high performance throws. And they finally game planned him pushing the ball down field. It was against a weak Dallas defense, but at least they were running a game based on attacking weaknesses of the defense rather than covering the weaknesses of our own team. Maybe both Canales and Young are maturing before our eyes.
    • No, he got beat at home by Michigan this year.  The other five wins are against Big Ten and Non-Power bottom feeders.  He's 0-7 vs ranked teams, and each year Nebraska has started strong and then faded in conference play.  Nebraska is 1-7 in two Novembers under Rhule.  This year their November slate is USC, @UCLA, @Penn State and Iowa.  Very possible they lose all of those games.  His tenure at Nebraska is looking very Baylor-esque.  And somehow he's still a front runner for the Penn State job.  Which would be ironic since they just ran a very Matt Rhule like (as far as can't beat any good teams) James Franklin out of town. 
    • GWDs vs... HOU: 15 - 13, no turnovers ATL: 9 - 7, no turnovers NO: 23 - 22, 1 interception NYG: 20 - 17, no turnovers ARI: 36 - 30, no turnovers @ATL: 44 - 38, no turnovers MIA: 27 - 24, 1 interception + 1 fumble DAL: 30 - 27, 1 interception (that was clearly TMac's fault) Which one of those games was Bryce clearly the reason that the team was behind aside from Miami?
