Yup I am that lonely 1 who voted for the Jazz. Jazz in 6, you just wait and see, D-Will will go off. If it isn't rigged like it was last year when they met in the playoffs, Utah should and will win this series.

Ill wait.. And won't see. If you think the Jazz can win in staples you are crazy. D-Will better go off, but he needs to for the Jazz to have a chance. Lakes in five.

Just look at it this way, if the Jazz can somehow win won at Staples, they will win the series, this series will go atleast 6, because I don't think the Lakers can win at the Energy Solution Arena and their green seats. D-Will will go off, there is no arguing that, but if Boozer can get his act together they have a chance.

Do I really think this is going to happen? No, not really, but to quote the little kid from Angels in the Outfield, "Hey, it could happen..."

So the same Jazz team that has lost 7 out of 9 down stretch by an average of 13 pts. per game and has a 15-26 road record on the season is going to go into the Staples Center where the Lakers are 36-5 on the season and win. I hate the Lakers, but there's no way.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By TLGPanthersFan · Posted

      I have said if you out even an average QB into the offense we are averaging 25+ points a game. But that will never happen with Bryce under center.

      The defense is 28 out of 32 in salary cap allocation for 2025. We have a ton of resources tied up in the offense including the highest paid OL in the league multiple 1st round WR's and multiple recent draft picks across the offense at TE and RB and we have two 1000 yard backs. Bryce and company couldn't get past Tyler Shough and his crew in 2 games. That's all there is to it. You can spin it and put the entire onus on the defense to your heart's desire it doesn't change the fact that this is an OFFENSIVE team now. If you want to argue that we should revert back to a defensive identity as we have been in the past which has brought us success then I will agree with you on that. But as it stands the onus is on the offense because that is where we have invested through the nose. Dave Canales and Bryce Young need to do a hell of a lot better than they have against the rebuilding Saints who without us should only have 2 wins this season.

      Bryce is not trending up. He is the same QB he has always been. Bottom of the league in most categories.  If Canales thinks he can build a contender with Bryce then he is a bigger idiot then I thought.  Offense next year will have the same issues and be just as inconsistent as it was this year.  We have seen Bryce’a ceiling and it is 175 yards a game and that is not a QB you keep around as your starter. That is barely a backup.
