Some interesting stuff in there. He talks about the picks and says the first one was just a result of "the nature of the game," which I think is a nice way of saying he wishes it would've been caught and not tipped up... The second one he pretty much says the safety read his eyes and he put too much underneath it.

The most telling part of the presser though? Check out his reaction at 1:29 when asked if there is anymore pressure considering who is coming up on the schedule... LOL, do you believe him?

was it just me or did i feel like the whole team including cam cared less about this game (other than our D). I felt like we were the turd in the cornfield

There was lots of smiling on the sidelines. Not sure why that is if your team is losing.

I love how everybody is saying the team just seemed like they didn't care. Did they seem lethargic in the first half? Absolutely. They came out much more fired up in the 2nd half. Had they played a full 4 quarters, we win that game. The fact is, when you can't run the football, you can't win games. Simple as that. TB controlled the clock and made the most out of their drives early on, we didn't. Who do you blame when your run game isn't working? The OL. The OL never gave Williams a shot and for much of the game, Cam was either being sacked/hurried or running for his life. You can't win games like that. The OL and the secondary early on are what cost us this game. It really is that simple.

This. The game was 13-0 before the blink of an eye and while it wasn't over that early, we didn't exactly make it easy on ourselves. DWill ain't running backwards for that -1 yard, he's being beaten because he has no lanes and protection.

To anybody that is saying we didnt care, that is BS....

What I think is they thought it was going to be a cakewalk, and the BUCS came out to get some revenge for the blowouts last year. Even in Rhonde's and Carl Nicks presser they mentioned they wanted to beat us down (even though he was a Saint, just lets you know how the mentality in the locker room was), wanted to smash us. Nicks said he had a dream that they blew us out by like 50 points (or that is what the Bucs players wanted to do).

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      No. Physical tools alone aren't enough. There are plenty of examples of draft busts to support that. Aost all of them had the physical tools and that wasn't enough. But Bryce is a perfect example of the opposite. Absolutely elite intangibles aren't enough either. If you simply don't have the physical abilities all the football intelligence and work ethic in the world won't be enough to overcome it. Just look to the sidelines every Sunday. We call those people "coaches".

      As much as I despise Billy B, his philosophy on QBs is how I would approach things if I were a GM. You always keep looking for your next starter.  He has Bledsoe, who got injured and his backup ended up being the GOAT. Even while he had that going, he kept getting his next guy and developing them. When Brady got hurt, Cassel stepped in and went 11-5 and they missed the wild card by dumb luck. Who knows how far they would have gone if they had gotten in. Jimmy Gs career started in NE. There were others, but he always kept looking.  You can't be afraid to keep looking for your next starter, but it looks like we're afraid to look for more than a marginal one. If you're going to offer a $25m contract with incentives, that screams marginal QB. It also screams you're just a transition until we find our guy. After a 10 or 11 win season, he's not accepting that offer. And then you're in a Daniel Jones situation. Do you pay for a year of success and pray it wasn't a one year wonder?  To this point, Bryce has really produced nothing, yet for whatever reason, our FO has not even sniffed at the idea that we need a real QB room with real QBs. Dalton was never starter potential, Plummer was a joke. KP certainly isn't, neither is Grier.  Our approach to the QB room needs to be one of strength not fear. Bring in guys who can compete or who you think can compete. This is THE elite position, in an elite sport, paid premium salary, where production matters. Either you produce or you can lose your job. It's not mean, it's just the reality of the position.  And I'm really just tired of our candy ass approach to it.

      If you plug Bryce onto the Pro Bowl roster you might have a chance to compete for a SB. If he's surrounded by top tier talent with a top tier defense on the other side, a field flipping punter, and a kicker good from 60+ you might have a chance. But that means you basically have to recreate Saban's Bama in the NFL and that's impossible... and Bryce couldn't win a championship in that environment either. What the Panthers didn't realize when they got so obsessed with his "PG mentality" was that what they were looking st was a "barely checks the box PG". The basketball equivalent of Bryce would be an undersized PG with marginal athleticism who can make the basic plays but adds nothing to the team in terms of elevating the overall team. Not a great shooter, not a great defender, not a great driver. Just a guy who can basically get you into the offense and be a matador on defense. Basically a placeholder while you look to upgrade the PG position.
