He's got great hands. He's a real good guy. You throw the ball in his general direction, he catches it!

 

It's terrible that this is the selling point.  On most teams, thats just an expectation for any WR on the roster

He never really lived up to their expectations in Philly.

Whether those were reasonable, you can debate.

 

 

Meh, I would say he met all expectations both on and off the field. Andy Reid moved up to draft him in the 4th round because he wanted a receiver with "great hands, toughness, leadership; intelligence, and good route running". He hit on everyone of those and I can't think of one person in Philly (in the organization or fans) that would say he fell short of anything. He is probably only behind Brian Dawkins as the most beloved player recently with the Eagles.

 

Avant would be a good addition to any team including the Panthers but I don't think he really fits a need here. His game is the exact same one Steve Smith should be running. Gritty, tough, slot receiver running intermidiate routes and making the tough plays.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By frankw · Posted

      This is one of my key concerns lost in the sauce that is the neverending conversation about him evading pressure and the OL. Eventually any QB is going to have to step up into the pocket and show the defense they can still beat them even if they get through. We have a limited QB who cannot consistently do this and as such we are relegated to going back and forth about how successful he was at evading pressure but we have little else to write home about. Tyler Shough stepped up into the pocket and made plays despite being pressured and sacked. He's played in about 35 less games than Bryce Young. That is a problem. And isn't just going to go away. The Bucs are going to do the same thing after watching the film.

      Oh, absolutely! That doesn't absolve the absolute dogshit hockey that the team played in front of him, though. Only Cane that played well tonight was Bradly Nadeau.

      Thanks for illustrating my point.  No one in the last several pages of this discussion is suggesting we should hang on to him, but anytime someone says anything less than "take him out back and shoot him" you act like they are. That's either you not understanding what you're reading or just being a nimrod because you can't keep up. (I would have said 'or just sh-tposting' but you're way too emotional on this topic for that) Either way, the result is the same 😆
