Sorry, this doesn't go here, But I need to say this. I'm really really hoping that Gettleman finds us some bonefide WRs from somewhere on this planet. Whether it be in the draft, FA, the CFL or wherever. When the dust settles and the season begins, we had better not have a problem with our passing game. If we do, the backlash that you think he's enduring now will be minuscule to what he'll get if we don't have production from our wideouts.

As much as it pains me to say this, and I'm forcing myself to look at this with my glass 1/2 full, we will miss Smittys intensity on the field/leadership more than anything. Nobody can energize our crowd like Smitty did. We could be down 35-7 and the man catches the ball, spins it on the ground and smacks his helmet, and if you closed your eyes for two seconds you'd think he just scored the game winning TD.

Sorry in advance if my post derails your thread OP. I don't have thread creating abilities just yet. To my fellow fans, we're just going to have to wait and see what happens. We sang Gettlemans praises last year, let's see if he can wow us once again. It's hard to think that will be possible with what we've been left with. We are and traditionally always have been a "build through the draft" type of team. It's hard to have faith now, but let's all hope this FO and our scouting department can pull several rabbits out of the hat before September.

    • That's neither on Ickey nor Bryce, that's a coverage sack. There were plenty of examples where he drifted into pressure or didn't move in the right direction, but on this play we sent two men out deep and Max Protected with both TEs and the RB staying back to block. Both receivers were completely covered down the field with zero checkdown options and the pass rush got home. Bryce took a deep drop back due to the PA and to let the receivers get deeper. That was the play design This sack isn't "Clearly on the QB". There were plenty of examples where Bryce drifts in the pocket or bailed toward pressure last season (open up a random clip from the Jags game for examples), but this is not one of them. Blame Frank and his dumbass playcalling/design for sending two slow receivers who don't get open well on deep routes with no other options on this one.
    • Some things look horrible but you had the position covered. Some things look horrible because they really were.
    • Well this one is more like it, 28-3 Falcons in the 3rd before I just stopped.  Sorry.  Bryce lovers: watch the Chicago game not this one. Bet the farm on Bryce.
