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.

    • And once again I showed you it’s been pretty even. We spent 2nd and 3rd rounders this past draft on edge rushers. No one’s going to sit here and do the math on a draft value chart etc. the only reason I even entertained this was because you said we’ve spent nothing on defense when that simply isn’t true. It also didn’t help we traded our ONLY WR worth a damn to trade up for Bryce soo… And this is kind of the issue with the anti Bryce crowd. This crowd tends to blame him for the trade up. I was team Stroud. Had the panthers not taken Young the only other QB they were going to take was Richardson. So your issue should be with Tepper, Morgan, Fitterer not Bryce.  Bryce is who he is and it was pretty obvious who he was during the draft process. Bryce is slowly developing into that guy most thought he’d be. Give him a WR like Jamo and this offense as a whole would improve greatly.  Anyone thinking he was the next Pat Mahomes or Josh Allen is clearly slow. Bryce was always going to need pieces around him much like EVERY other QB Burrow has Chase and Higgins and they’ve done nothing. After losing in AFC Championship in 2022, Burrow is 17-15. QB’s need a team around them It’s why a Jalen Hurts led Eagles team dismantled a Pat Mahomes led KC team in the SB Imo the QB’s doing the most with the least up until this year have been Josh Allen and Lamar Jackson  This year it’s Drake Maye and Josh Allen  Outside of the 3-5 elite type QB’s I’m not really sure what people expect here. Is Bryce ever going to be in that elite category? Nope. Should we punt on Bryce and keep swinging? I don’t think so. Should we keep swinging while hanging onto Bryce? Yeah but I don’t know what that looks like This team as a whole isn’t very good. Offense and defense and that’s the simple truth  
    • I didn't move the goal posts. But anyone who follows football who wants to engage in a rational discussion can't argue that 10 7th round picks are equal to 10 1st rounders in value. The argument has always been we haven't spent as much on defense has we have on offense. Draft picks have value just like salary. We have not spent the same amount of draft pick salary cap on defense that we have on offense since drafting Bryce. It's not even close. Just the 2 1sts we used on Bryce, 2 overall 1sts have a value of 6000. That doesn’t even factor in DJ Moore or the 2 2nds. Bryce cost more than everything we've spent on defense in 6 damn years. 
    • We need to hope this scenario plays our next week he fails with pressure…what that means with Evero, is beyond me
