Say what you all want. That guy was grinning from ear to ear on the sideline before the game winning drive. I fuging love that poo.

When we have the ball at the end of the game I feel very confident, and that’s a great feeling to have.

However, when he’s missing throws left and right it makes me physically nauseous.  

Buddy, you are 5’10 180 with a below average arm what do you mean you’re inaccurate too? 

He grins when he turns the ball over, when he misses recievers and when other teams score.  I dont think grinning means anything with him

The accuracy issues are startling. The one thing about a true game manager is accuracy and modest productivity. He has neither of those. 

He is neither reliably productive nor remotely accurate.

One of the only moments in his entire career where he actually impressed me was when he had the shimmer in his eye and grin on his face before that final drive on Sunday.  When I saw the look on his face I knew we were going to go right down the field and win.  You could see in his eyes he knew he had the game won. 

 

I think a lot of that had to do with him knowing Rico was feeling good and the Packers defense was gassed, and not necessarily confidence in his own abilities, but I digress...

I thought Flutie was the closest comp but iirc had a much better arm. 
There really is no good comp that I could dream up. 

Correct, there isn’t one. We went all in on the outlier of all outliers and lost. I swear if they extend him and devote huge cap space to this mediocrity I will lose my mind.

Yeah, I don't watch college ball, so predraft with some people making Brees comparisons, I just assumed with his size he probably had pinpoint accuracy. Boy Howdy, "startling" is a great word to describe watching his rookie season.

I don’t watch college ball either, for the most part. All I needed was his pro day. I saw the issues right away, and was shocked that the pro evaluators allowed the insanity. 
 

edit. Not trying to brag about seeing it, it was so obvious. Several people around here said the same thing. And we are just casual fans, so what do we know?

Jeff Garcia

OBVIOUSLY Garcia >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Bryce.  But I thought coming out of Alabama, that was the best comp for Bryce.  I can't really speak on Doug Flutie because I haven't seen much of him.

I don’t remember Garcia being that small. I don’t remember a ton except that like they couldn’t get rid of him he kept being the QB and was okay. Won some games. 
Just looked, he is the same size as Brees 6’1” 205 smack in the middle between Bryce and prototype QB size.

 

Flutie 5’10” 180. Near perfect match body wise. Without looking at YouTube just fuzzy memory, I feel like he had an NFL arm.  And was a good scrambler for the era.
Looked at some video. Yeah he had an arm.Fun guy to watch play and had been in the CFL. His path was the opposite of Bryce nobody gave him anything. Which made him easy to root for. 

If Bryce could be Flutie we would be okay. I don’t think he is. 

Edit: Flutie threw a nice ball. Hit guys in stride. Accurate good anticipation. I wish Bryce was Flutie.

    • LOL! We have ourselves a funny one over here.  
    • That’s why I love Jake and always will.  He was so fuging gritty and definitely was a gunslinger.  Like a not-quite-poor-man’s Brett Favre.  Like an economy version lol.  He was damn good.  Yeah, he’d throw a pick here or there, but more often than not, I trusted Jake.  He’d make some throws that really made you think, “damn, he’s even better than I thought.”  I loved that he loved to gamble, but more importantly, he gave his guys a fuging chance to make a play.  When people have been criticizing Tet for drops, it pisses me off, because they say it like these are some gimmes that he’s dropping.  but, at about 6’5”, if your whole body is moving one way and you have to stop or slow down to come back to a ball thrown behind you, or low, that poo is not easy.  Bryce isn’t really giving him a chance, and I can see why he’s dropping them.  Versus if you look at this highlight reel of Moose: at about halfway through is when Jake stepped in.  The passes he was throwing are CRAZY.  There’s multiple passes in there where he is throwing across his body while running the opposite way - and he still had the strength to get it on target.  Then there’s the throws where he lasers it in a spot only the receiver could get it - seam routes, out routes, over the top. The longer you watch, the more obvious it is that so many of these (what should be basic) throws are completely absent from our offense with Bryce.  There was a play today where he started to scramble, kept looking, looking, looking, then just threw it into the ground near the receiver.  Let them make a fuging play.  His best pass of the day?  The long one to Tet?  If you re-watch it. About 10-15 yards further downfield, XL smoked his man on a post route.  You get maybe 3 chances at that a game usually, and when you don’t even attempt it when it’s there?  That poo is so demoralizing.  I can’t wait for Bryce’s time here to be fuging over.  If they cut him tomorrow I would feel free.  I would feel like I just won the fuging powerball.  If they signed Heineke, Perkins, White, PJ Walker, or Hooker to start the rest of the year, I would be fuging ecstatic like we just trotted Cam out for the first time.  That how fuging life-sucking Bryce is as the QB.
    • Aren't they about the same size too? Why TF are teams all of sudden drafting these small ass QBs that have an EXTREMELY low hit rate at an already extremely low hit rate position?
