Anyone else notice?

At least six times yesterday the ball was hiked when Cam was not expecting it. He almost dropped it a few of the times. Not sure you could see it on TV or not, but that's the first time I have seen that happen. And it was not when the crowd was really loud either.

Anyone else notice?

I think we can officially describe the entire team's play yesterday as: rusty. Whether this was from the strange week we had, the rain, or, quite frankly, the initial punch in the mouth the Bucs delivered it is hard to tell.

I very much hope we are a lot crisper next week, as the Saints* had a tumultuous first game performance as well.

The one that hurt the most was when we were inside the 5 yard line. It was the play where Cam tried a back shoulder throw to Louis Murphy. I can't help but think that untimely snap really fuged with the rythem of the throw and route.

This is exactly the play I noticed it on as well. Looks like he wasn't expecting to get the ball when he did.

    • It's not impossible to go from worst to first.  We kept Evero because anyone in there right mind knew our defense was destroyed by injuries, not the scheme.  Evero has been given a plethora of talent between free agency and the draft, not to mention getting DB back. I fully expect our defense to be very good.  I have no reason to think Jones would say something like that unless he truly felt like that.   
    • We would’ve played Florida and lost in the 1st instead of the 3rd round.  Montreal would have been the 8 seed.
    • I can't get behind a purely subjective re-draft as a method of defining "top-10 QB" status. That invites bias based on vibes/hypotheticals and can ignore actual on-field performance. You and others have said that Bryce has to be a top-10 QB to justify the pick. That's a high bar, which I'm not against, but we need a clear, consistent way to measure it. When I bring up metrics that Bryce has registered in the top-10 in like BTT%, P2S ratio, catchable deep ball rate, etc... they're waved off as either irrelevant or the expected baseline performance. Meanwhile, volume stats like passing yards or win-loss records, both of which depend heavily on roster talent, health, and coaching, are treated as definitive. That's where the inconsistency kicks in. If no performance metric ever counts in his favor and the answer is always going to be "he should be doing that," then we're not evaluating him... we're just holding him to a curve he can't win against. If this is really about performance standards, then let's define them. But if it's just about confirming prior takes based on height and weight, then let's call it what is it and stop pretending that this is a football analysis discussion.
