You do have a minimal understanding of physics, correct?

Buddy I aced Physics I and II just to TAKE my entrance exam for my program. I'm not going to be impressed by you trying to F=MV me. 

Besides I know all about getting stuck under 300 pounds of human. Tell your mom I said hi.

Looks like the guys got his leg up his ass.  Gonna have to amputate.

that's actually a tibfib. and yeah we amputated eventually. Surgeon "stabilized" it first so the patient could understand what happened before they went in and did the final revision.

i have seen a proximal femur fracture retracted into the pelvic girdle. tractor accident, which are low key the worst things you've ever seen. nerve damage, pissing blood, no rectal tone, just awful. Straight to surgery.

This is spot on, with the first 5 years of a QBs contract being so pivotal, as it should, unless you have Pat Mahomes or the reincarnation of Tom Brady, stats shows once the qb gets paid, the teams Super Bowl chances shrink significantly 

what we did to get Bryce was idiotic to say the least, not because of the player(not a Bryce endorsement) but because there’s a long history of proof, making big swings at qb, are usually big misses 

find the identify, build around that, and go from there. Unfortunately we don’t have one, and neither the defense nor offense side of the ball are more than good at best

Both were hard to watch. No doubt. I just know that when watching Clausen I was actively screaming at the TV for his inept play. Bryce, I more felt bad for? Different feelings of frustration.

I laughed at that because I get it.  I didn’t want Bryce. At all.

But when he stepped on the field vs Atlanta game one 2023, he was even worse than I thought he would be. I was kind of in shock.  It hit me pretty hard, what our situation was, that day.  
 

And looking at what we did to get him vs Clausen, I was just sick.  We gave up so much. Set the team back years.

@kungfoodudeare you still wanting to talk to me about force related injuries? This was a patient of mine about two hours after what caused it.

can you tell me what you’re even looking at here?

Yet for your proof of concept for how Bryce could never play in the old NFL you showed a clip of 6-2, 195 Ike Taylor(a DB) hitting 6-0, 190 Pat White?

So it's not physics you don't understand, it's actual size(and possibly football positions?

    • I see Bryce's development this way: He improved when his supporting cast improved.  TMac and Dowdle saved his arse last year, but in fairness, most good QBs have good WRs and good RBs--and good OLs.   The 2025 OL underperformed, actually. They were above average, but they should have been elite if you consider the salary cap.   As soon as we signed Lewis and Hunt, I started thinking, "That's not sustainable.  With Ickey about to get paid a LT salary, Moton and Hunt grabbling $50m per season combined, and Lewis around $17m--that would be nearly $100m and the Center just walked.  Yikes.  What does that mean?  Rico walks, Mays walks, and we do not have a top 5 WR on a second contract.  We do not have an elite TE, and only 1 is on a modest second contract. And now Bryce will demand $50m for his incremental rise to mediocrity?   So when we sign Bryce, we will get weaker at other positions.  Hunt, Moton, maybe Ickey and Lewis, will all be casualties--that is the right move regardless (not sure yet about Ickey, but he was not elite) Bryce is one lucky, entitled camper.  No competition since being drafted, and he lost his job for a while to the aging clipboard holder.  Now we are bringing in UDFAs and busts to compete with him.  
    • Probably not.  If we are taking a QB, it would be a prospect to replace Bryce and not a flyer type player.  I can't say for sure, but I doubt he would have cracked the top 3-4 QBs even if he were to play this coming season.  
    • The Giants, Cardinals  and Dolphins should have moved on, but they didn't and ended up cutting their QB early into a monster second contract and had to eat a TON of dead cap money.
