Well now reality is gonna set in. All that preseason hype about him being able to cover Jimmy Graham is going to be put to bed next week. Noone in this league has come close to covering him with saftey help, and just because we draft a LBer, he has the skills to do it. Nope. It is going to hurt being right about this, but at least my fantasy teams wont suffer.

I agree. I was on the don't draft Luke Band wagon and got stoned because he was a great player and a safe pick. The fact is he is a good defender against the run,but he didn't help us do the number one thing we needed to address this offseason. Rush the passer. He brings nothing to that area and after seeing get beat by blitzcrieg or whoever the bucs were man handling him with all game not sure he is that great against the run. He blew alot of arm tackles and was beaten in the passing game by Martin and on a few crossing routes.Never liked the pick still don't.

I was disappointed in Keuchly as well, but I'm not putting all the blame on him. Given the total amount of defensive plays, he was probably on the field for only 50% of the time if that. I was looking for his number all game, and couldn't find it half the time. If they are going to take someone out, take Anderson out. (In fact, if TD is fully healthy, I would put him in the starting line-up with Beason and Keuchly)

      Hey You, You Don't Know Quarterbacking

      yeah, I can get a little of that.  But that's not what he is posting in his argument just now though.   He said people wouldn't even concede to the literal ability to do it when pressed on the literal ability.  I have never seen that.  He maintains it exists somewhere.  I mean, using anomaly games to make arguments about players just isn't the way.   There wasn't a defender within 10 yards of our guys on 2 of those 3 throws Sunday.  No one within 5 on the 3rd.   That's not Bryce Young answering questions about his play downfield..  That's Bryce Young taking advantage of coverage busts by a bad D.  Which hey, that's part of the game too.  Recognition and seeing the field.   It can't totally be dismissed.   That's still good play.  You want your QBs to make those plays.  But it's not getting into the long standing critique of BY IMO.

      Adam Thielen on Young

      Deserved, I wouldn’t use that word. Asked for? For sure. Am I upset over it? No.  People forget that AT was throwing his helmet in frustration last season over his QB’s ineptitude. The same QB was pretty inept to start this year, no guarantee AT would have helped him in those games any more than he did last year.  Just sayin.  And Dan doing him a solid probably did not go unnoticed by players around the league. I think it increases his rep with potential FAs. It sure can’t hurt it.

      You think that was the fault of the guy that was lighting it up or maybe the bums around him? Funnily enough, those bums are still being bums in his absence. Who would have thought!
