couple quick thoughts on what he said(reading in between the lines)

-Sounds like if Norman can translate his good showings in practice to preseason games, the #2 corner is his.

-Went out of his way to praise Godfrey but wouldn't name a starter at FS, looks like Nakumara may have a slight edge of over Martin.

Godfrey must be the worlds greatest practice player in the history of sports. I mean there must be something we are missing here.....

the guy has potential and does show some good things during games. methinks alot of the poor plays we attribute to him causing is actually him doing what he was told but then being put in a poor position due to someone else screwing up.

its tough to tell with safeties because we don't have the coaches tape nor the play calls available to us so us and the media generally just evaluates safeties on big hits and interceptions.

Godfrey has a great skill set. He has been a below average S over the course of his career to date. <insert Hurney deal with it gif>

He gets no heat. So yeah, WE must be missing something....he must ball out in practice and crumple against competition or consistantly has nudes of the coaching staff or something.

easier to just throw out a "he just sucks".

Watch Godfrey have a Chris Gamble like season and shut up all the doubters again.

or we can just watch Godfrey do what he has done all 4 previous years.....struggle w/ coverage assignments and open field ball carriers.

it is what it is.

Or, maybe Norman can be that guy and give us two solid CBs. That would allow Godfrey to actually play his own position. Instead of cheating to help, he can stay home.

It will be what it is.

      XL is a Lost Cause

      By strato · Posted

      I have been looking for a dropped pass list and all that comes up is QBs. And team stats. When I do receivers I get the passing stats for a handful that threw passes this year.    I wanted to be accurate but anyhow I was looking because thought I remembered reading where T Mac had more drops than XL this year.  One of you many smarter than me people here,I would appreciate it if you know how to pull that up, please do. Thank you.    And yeah I know that isn’t all there is to it I just thought it was interesting.  Of course what the hell is a drop lol.

      I agree with this and I think it's worth mentioning too that Bryce is not consistent on his placement and especially velocity and that in large part is driven by his footwork. We all know XL doesn't have the best hands and I don't know that he can overcome that. Cam always had the heater that just hit your hands and sank into your grip, where Bryce has some that are harder thrown, some soft. Bryce stepping into a pass looks so much different than that hop throw thing he does. I think XL really needs to hit the jugs machine and start learning how to catch all these different touch passes. TMac and Coker don't have these issues. If XL doesn't get some work in he's going to be out of the league in the next couple of years.

      I think most people like XL from a personal standpoint. I don't think he's stupid either. Although if we are being realistic he is lacking in football IQ at this point in time and it cannot be disputed that he has not taken working on his craft seriously at all times given the body of work on the field. It speaks for itself. I myself have defended him at times given the circumstances of our QB room. But he is now in his third year and 25 years old. We are not in a position as a franchise to go around babying anyone especially first round draft picks. He needs to take his position and his football career seriously or he is going to end up selling used cars somewhere. I hope he realizes this and takes an extended break from social media because that mess certainly isn't going to increase his net worth if he ends up out of the league. And these hanger on types will disappear quick too once that money dries up and it surely will eventually. We'll see how he responds.
