Receivers balled Sunday!

That had to be the best YAC performance in years.

I was really happy to see XL have success and make an impact. I’ve been one of his biggest haters, but at the same time there’s very few players I want to see succeed more than XL. He’s a good dude who’s been through a lot. I hope he can keep building off this game.

It's much biggest criticism of him and glad to see improvement Sunday.  I wish good Bryce would show up earlier in the season 

Yeah it really shouldn't have taken until week 11 and for the saints game to be so awful for him to have a really good game. I guess it's possible that Dave was calling plays for him to not fug up weeks 3-10 after how bad the turnovers were in weeks 1-2 then after the saints game the coaches realized we cannot consistently win that way. I think the shitty numbers are on both Dave and Bryce. Dave seems to be like Ron where he has to learn the same lesson several times before he implements change but at least he does eventually learn. I do hope going forward we game plan for an opponent more vs saying this is what we do. The niners pass rush has been non existent so maybe another big day for Bryce on Monday but that kind of game plan will get him absolutely murdered against the rams. You have to play into your opponents weakness vs trying to will the game based on your strengths. That's what good coaches do imo

448 yards for Bryce! That’s Dan Marino numbers.

Tremble turned a 5 yard pass into a 54 yard reception putting them into FG position for the win

Cooker only had 5 passes his way but caught every single one averaging 13 yards/catch and he caught the 2 point conversion.

Tremble did nothing more than Beast Mode on that play.  I loved his fight for every yard.

Most of Coker's receptions were critical in each drive.  I'm glad to see he's getting more targets.

That's normally what happens when any QB puts up big numbers 

Hard no there Crocodile Dundee!  We all know the true leader, Alpha Chad, macho-macho man QBs never get YAC.  They throw the ball so well that the WR has to stop and take a knee and pray to Angry Jesus the beauty of that pass while the whole stadium gives a quiet golf clap in awe.

In case no one could figure it out, I'm kidding.  I'm not an alpha chad, lol

Legette took a 5 yard pass in the flat and turned it into a 20 yard reception. More importantly, he ran a go route and unlike the previous week where he made a half hearted, feeble attempt at catching it, he extended out and grab it for a 37 yard TD reception this time.

 

And as a Bryce fan and apologist, I see you describe XL's effort on the endzone throw vs. NO as half hearted/feeble. That is why people give overzealous Bryce fans so much shite. It was a miss by him and his downfield accuracy has been awful. It was a big effort for XL to get a hand on the ball with a DB draped all over him. Because you are a Bryce apologist, you see it as a feeble and half hearted attempt. XL is an easy target. Maybe a better throw would've helped him haul in the catch with the DB riding him into the endzone. Sunday's pass was a catchable ball no more no less and he caught it. What were your thoughts when he was running wide open in the end zone a few possessions later and Bryce threw it short? Should he have given a better effort to stop on a dime and jump back towards the coverage he beat? These WRs have been getting open, but the scheming was better Sunday and Bryce played better Sunday. Its as simple as that. No need to dump on WRs when their play is directly tied to the QB you are praising. Every reception shouldn't involve some herculean effort.
