Positive things to take away from today!

I like everyone else am pretty pissed, but all is not lost. We did many things well and I think this is a good football team that would be celebrating a win right now if Dwill wouldn't have fumbled.

The defense was relentless with stopping the run game. This dline has the potential to be better than the 03 line, if it hasn't already reached that level.

Cam, while his stats don't show it, played a great game. He'd be over 200 yards if it weren't for Olsen's drops.

Shula called a decent game. The offense just didn't execute.

The oline wasn't as bad as everything thought it would be. Wasn't great but wasn't bad.

I'm just trying to be positive here. The world isn't ending. 15 other teams will be 0-1 at the end of the day.

The performance did show the potential this team has if it can execute and complete plays. The defense played very well, and I'm sure when the offense finally clicks we'll be a very tough opponent for those we come up against. Despite losing, I still have faith in this team to have a good season.

    • Bryce hasn't done a single thing to prove he deserves to have his option picked up.  I'd have less of an issue with us declining the option and bringing him back as the starter next year than I would have us picking up that option, as that means he's on our cap books for the next 2 years instead of 1, even if he's cut before year 5. Tua threw for 3,500 yards with a 25-8 TD-INT ratio in just 13 starts the year before they picked up his option, and then threw for over 4,600 yards before they gave him his extension. Kyler threw for 3,722, 3,971, and 3,787 in 16, 16, and 14 games (while rushing for 544, 819, and 423 in those seasons) before they picked up his option and then signed him to an extension before year 4. Jones threw for 3,200 yards with a 3-1 TD-INT ratio with another 700 yards and 7 TDs rushing in year 4 before they signed him to his extension. Bryce has thrown for 2,877 and 2,400 yards in 16 and 12 starts his two seasons, while being on pace for 3,128 yards in a 17 game season so far this year. The closest comparison to any of them was Jones, who while he's turned it around this year, is someone I think everyone can agree was not a player who deserved that extension after that season. If people think those other QB's having their options picked up and/or given extensions were a mistake, in what world can you look at what Bryce has done and make any rational argument for him even being brought back as our starter next year, let alone also picking up his option that would cost us about $27 million fully guaranteed.
    • I don't think we would actually play Hooker but hopefully we also just don't see. I don't view Dalton/Bryce as a worse option than Winston/Howell. I just think we disagree on this specific subject is all.
    • I guarantee tepper would fire him if we lost out and he’d be justified
