I’m not sure if Cincinnati rookies Andy Dalton and A.J. Green are going to be the NFL’s next great quarterback and receiver or if Carolina cornerback Chris Gamble is totally washed up.

GambleI’m leaning toward the latter after watching Gamble get beat badly twice by Green in Carolina's 24-13 loss in Thursday night’s exhibition game. It got so bad that Cincinnati broadcaster Anthony Munoz joked that Gamble was seen being escorted to the locker room to have aloe applied to his burns.

Awful. But then again i thought the insult was earned. Gamble was a embarassment to every vet corner in the NFL last night. He picked a awful season when we have no number 2 corner to say"hey coach i might be washed up".

I got to watch it yesterday with the Cincy broadcasters. Definitely heard that statement. Another one that he made was that he was loving seeing majority of Panther players on the ground after each play (said this while we were on D). Insinuating that the Bengals Oline was manhandling not only the DL but LB as well.

has gamble really ever been all that great though? He looked good at Ohio State but has never turned into that player i hoped he would be when drafted. You could more than likelyt replace him with an average corner and not notice any drop off in production except having much less to pay in salary.

His first 2 or 3 years in the the league he was. After that, not so much.

would there be a way that some team could be stupid enough to trade for this dud? i mean if he is gonna get toasted every damn play for 3 years straight anyhow why not put in somebody you only have to pay a minimum too? Heck, im pretty sure my grandma could cover better than this guy these days.

there wasn't much I could say to back up Gamble.. dude shouldn't have been torched on both of those plays.

Gamble looked like a fool when Green caught that pass out of bounds.. no way that should have happened, help over the top or not..

the TD score was just as bad.. dude was right there to make a play, but got burnt instead...

      Where do you fall on the Bryce Young spectrum?

      By strato · Posted

      I agree that he plays scared and far too often. I go to game 3 2024 Andy vs LV.   The exact play, I don’t remember but what I do clearly remember is Andy stood tall in the face of pressure and stepped into a throw knowing he was gonna get hit.  Made the throw, took the hit, made the play - pretty sure it was downfield.    When Bryce came back in in garbage time it wasn’t long before I saw him do that. And I knew he had seen Andy and understood that if he wanted it, that is how he was going to have to play.   But it didn’t last. This season he was back to bailing out saw it in preseason and knew it was the old Bryce. Playing not to get hit.    Sometimes you have to pay the price or you don’t make the play.  I get him being skittish. Could I do it? I was pretty much his size in high school. I bet I would try but getting killed a couple of times would probably have me acting just like him.    But if he doesn’t sack up, pay attention to his mechanics, and remain diligent about that, he won’t make it.

      Not like Mayfield and Darnold which is the point CRA was making

      Bryce's Achilles Heel Is Not What You Think It Is

      100% He will have to develop more arch on his throws to get it further downfield. Right now he is comfortable throwing no more than 20 yards.
