Gettis on the PUP list

I just feel like we are not at full strength on the offense without this guy. LaFell is decent, but he is not a true number 2.

I don't get the love-affair with Gettis. I hope the dude makes it back, and all of his fans are correct. I would love for him to return and be a force. But, thus far, I've seen nothing that would guarantee this happens.

I didn't see anything spectacular. Did he make good plays? Yes. Did he make plays that said he should be a starter? No, not really. LaFell would definitely be a number three receiver on a lot of teams around the league.

You must have missed the one or two clutch catches every week near the end of each game. Not to mention the good catches throughout each game. He is legit, I don't understand the doubts people have.

I am not sure we can really gauge the years LaFell and Gettis had with Clausen. I didn't think either was clearly better than each other. I personally liked Gettis better that year.

But all that matters is LaFell is on the field. LaFell might not be as explosive as Gettis (and that gap may have closed because of Gettis's nagging injuries) but he is better all around WR. He, like Murphy, likes to block when his number isn't called.

I am just worried this has more to do than just his hamstring. I don't know why you'd be on the PUP list just for a hamstring. He continues to say it has nothing to do with the ACL but I am sure it does.

      Frank comment about Bryce? "Excited"

      By LinvilleGorge · Posted

      I don't think he did it to spite Bryce. Seems like Bryce is a truly decent guy that virtually everyone likes. I do think Frank likely preferred Stroud and was either was led to believe or deluded himself into thinking that he would have a lot more say in the direction we went at QB in the draft. Once we decided on Bryce knowing Bryce didn't fit his system and preferences in a QB it really seemed like the wind went out of Frank's sails and he basically started mailing it in and just waited to get fired and paid out. Maybe I'm misreading the whole situation but that's certainly the way it looked to me from the outside looking in.

      give some props to Andy Dalton

      By WUnderhill · Posted

      Again, it may have nothing to do with Bryce Young. The coaches are thinking about the whole roster. Many guys have said how much different this off-season has been not having to start from square 1 with a playbook, language, etc. You’re talking about bringing in a guy to lead the 2nd team offense who they now have to spend time teaching. Every team is different. This team is young and developing across the board and trying to find some positive continuity. With how Morgan and Canales have approached everything I’m fairly certain they considered all possibilities and decided it was best for the overall team to roll with Dalton for now. They value whatever it is they feel Dalton brings over the extremely low probability of whatever washed out, journey man, reclamation project developing into a franchise QB. You and I have no idea why and aren’t there in the meetings, but it’s clear that the FO sees this young failed franchise QB project as less likely to pan out than you do.

      Frank justed wanted to throw Young to the wolves because he wanted to draft Stroud. It was a big FU to Tepper and that is why he only lasted a few games before getting canned.
