Losing him last week was Big!  Without him rotating in CJ and Kraken wore down.  That 3rd DE is huge look how much Al Wallace helped with Pep and Rucker

Going back and rewatching the game as he's walking off after the penalty, Smitty was getting on him (not all over his ass like armond smith but got on him).  He seemed to understand he made a bonehead move when smitty and rivera were telling him to go to the locker room.  He also was quick to mention "he's learned a lesson. Can't let people in his head." in the presser the other.

 

Am I the only one who thinks this kids going to come out with a chip on his shoulder this week?

Kid seems to be pretty level headed.  Smith had a little talk with him when he came off the field not much screaming, tapped him on the helmet and him and rivera told him to the locker room.  Compared to A. Smith,  Smitty got onto him for the personal fouls.  smith just kept walking past and that lit Smitty off.  Especially when he went out again getting another PF

Anyone who suggest that we should cut Frank Alexander for that needs to kill themselves or pick up a new sport.

 

...that's a little extreme.

 

It was suggested in the game day thread. The announcers even mentioned it. Idiocy knows no bounds. That ejection was a load of crap anyway. With all that went on week 1 with fines and what not, none of those guys got ejected.

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
