Early in the show, they were talking about Cam newton and his talents. What he did during the bye week. (Went to the FSU vs BC game) How he thought that AE had talent at WR, it just took time to get the WR spot down. The return game was mentioned, he blamed it being bad on a number of factors..

-Otah hates being hurt and is not a wimp. It was Hurneys choice to put him on IR

-Will not think about resigning Smitty or anyone else to the of season

-TD is one of the best players he has been around in his 24 years. He is working his butt off to get better but he is not sure how he will be and if he ever fully recover.

-Will not discuss if he will restructure TDs contract if he can return.

-WR in draft? This is later then you asked me about the draft than last year (laughs). Glad we made it till November until you asked this year. I will look at draft prospects in of season.

-I like to pay my core players. I don't like spending alot in FA. Ron Edwards was a good sign, he is helping young players.

-Asked about D Wills big money. It was a good sign. He is a great player, we are still defining what this team is. Will has difference making ability.

-Is keeping Stew going to cost to much? We want to keep our impact players but we have time to decide.

-caller: I have always questioned you but I love you now that you signed Cam. Olsen was a great sign. I loved AE in App but cut him.

Hurney: Olsen and Shockey where signed to help develop a young QB. They felt good about their o-nline and WR. Olsen did not fit in Chicago's system.

-Caller: How is Brandon Hogan?

Hurney: We will make the decision by 4pm today. He needs more confidence. He is almost 100% healthy. Looks good in practice.

-Will you trade Jimmy?

Jimmy is great and trade deadline is over. He is improving every day but our starter spot is secured by Cam.

    • Here's the thing. You compared him to Jake. Jake was signed to the practice squad out of college. Bryce was the number 1 overall. Their expectations are wildly different and so are their contracts. You can talk all you want about what a player is and where they are now and all this other mumbo jumbo, but Jake never had a 5th year option and we weren't talking about the possibility of a top 5 QB contract extension at the end of his 3rd year. What he was expected to be matters because we invested heavily at a cost of future capital, including a 2nd round pick this year, for him to be that guy. The cost to add Bryce took value from the team. To be worth it, he has to add that value back.  Actually, I don't prefer yards, TDs, or only INTs. All those stats by themselves are misleading which is why I said you have to use a lot of different stats. ADOT - Average depth of target.  Completion %. Pretty obvious until you factor in ADOT. 0-5 has a lot higher C% than 10-15%. Hang time. If a pass is in the air for 4.6 seconds vs 3.1 on a 40 yards throw, that gives a DB a lot of time to correct. Is it a loft or is it a laser.  EPA - Expected points added. A way of measuring QB efficiency on every play.  CPOE - ranking pass completions based on several factors, not just the throw.  There's obviously more, but those are the more common.  Typical stats don't show everything. You need to look all over. Looking at a stat line is lazy. That's why I said, you need to analyze everything. Once you start looking at the numbers you start looking at the player. That's why you follow numbers. They lead you places. You look at what happening when the numbers show you patterns. That's where you start finding the problems that yards, TDs and Ints won't show you.     
    • It's not relevant who wins or loses. It's about actually attempting to get better at the position.
    • Thank you. I don't understand how the Bryce stans don't see this. I've never seen a player get more hyped for doing so little. Honestly it's driving me a little insane.
