Man what games are you watching ? The only thing he's doing better than last year is catching the ball . He's not getting any yards . Over the past 5 games he's only averaged 10 yards if that . And don't give me that ish about no blocking because there's always gonna be one or two guys breathing down your neck when you catch the ball . It's up to the punt returners to make those one or two guys miss to pick up yards or call fair catch . He's a QB not a return man simple and plain .

only one punt on sunday and there were three guys in his face and not one blocker on screen. i dont care if it was devin hester catching, he was going nowhere. blocking has to get better.

who do you suppose we should replace him with? keloha? he aint doing much better on kicks. i went to camp this year and armanti was far and away our best punt returner.

Kid has worked hard no doubt.

Seeing his ability to not poo his pants when a punt is in the air is quiet the improvement.

That said, he doesn't have the quickness to make the first guy miss.

Nor has he worked himself onto the field.

Why does he not catch kickoffs as well ?

Time for him to walk sadly.

LOL at people blaming the blockers for all of Armanti's lacking, and using what he did IN CAMP as a means to say he has skills as a PR.

everyone used the excuse last year of what he did IN PRESEASON as a means to say he couldnt play.

everyone wants to see results now because of what was given up for him but that isnt how a project works. especially one that fox had qb'ing the practice squad his rookie year. he's improved, be happy

I don't know what to think about AE anymore. If he saw more action as WR and made a few plays, that would be nice. But he can't get himself onto the field.

In order for the coaches to give him play time, he needs to make a play. He hasn't been able to do that yet. Punt returns are the perfect way to get noticed, to have the coaches believe that he is something special, and to give reason for putting him in the offense. He hasn't done that, and if by the end of the season you don't see a big return, I think he is going to be sent packing.

Also, he must not be doing well in practice either, otherwise I would figure he would be lined up in the offense for a couple plays at least, ones that he has done well in. Apparently, he is not excelling anywhere.

I hope the best for him, but his opportunity is fading away. :(

I'm not happy with crap, sorry. Some of you may be happy he can return it 5-10 yds, but give me a break. Fox didn't play him all that much and Rivera doesn't either. That tells you something. But go on, say by next year he'll be even better and in two years he'll be the next Steve Smith. I'll be there in two years to tell you you're a fool.

Was it really the Colts? I'm seriously curious as to who that 'mystery' team was

it was the Colts. Hurney or someone within the organization said they were positive he would be gone soon after that pick. Posters around here have said the Colts were that team.

      Hey You, You Don't Know Quarterbacking

      By strato · Posted

      Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.

      No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.

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

      Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
