Bryce is not the answer at QB but that doesn’t change the fact that you put any other QB on this team it will still suck, maybe a few more down field passes completed to tickle your fancy but inept nonetheless because of the nonexistent culture and identity in this club along with mostly terrible roster decisions . Instead of admitting that you make excuses for Canales too for having Bryce as QB. If Canales offense requires perfect execution at all times just to be competitive maybe it’s not a great offense after all.

Exactly, a kid from Albemarle basically washing jocks at BoA, to one of the "elite" GMs in the league, luck and timing was the factor.

I like Beane don’t get me wrong but he 100% lucked into Allen. That is an absolute outlier of a pick that worked. Aside from that the Buffalo roster isn’t done complete elite roster. Allen kind of carries it IMO. Buffalo is being helped by having Allen and McD for stability most of all.

There are many unfortunate truths about this franchise. None of them change the fact that Bryce Young has basically no physical tools. Brother you are being a simp. Nobody is blaming Bryce for literally everything. We're saying trying to build a successful NFL offense around his glaring deficiencies is not feasible and that was the catastrophic mistake we made in selecting him. It is what it is. Here is the video. Bryce Young doesn't make this throw. He wouldn't even be able to see the field let alone make use of a jag like Ian Thomas. Vikings vs. Panthers Week 6 Highlights _ NFL 2021.mp4

What Duke Cal game were you all watching?

No it isn’t, I can’t even recall that pass with out having to look it up on YouTube. But ultimately the point is the overall organization , coaching and roster were the main reasons for his failure here. Did Darnold also make terrible decisions and throws? Yes Baker was even worse and he had one of the strongest arms in the NFL. You want to blame Bryce for everything and ignore all the other terrible decisions

Id take Darnold over Young without hesitation

I must have missed it but did UNC get dunked on again?

Yeah, the people simping over Darnold will see the truth, just like last year.

Eric Collins is great. Unfortunately I doubt we'll give him much to work with. But I appreciate having him.

Please stop saying this already. We were competitive with Sam Darnold early on even with his blunders. Rewind to the game against the Vikings in BOA of 2021. That 41 yard pass he made under duress to Ian fuging Thomas which helped send us to overtime is infinitely more impressive than anything Bryce Young has done in 30+ starts.

MeowMix, lol.

I am blown away at how bad we have been with the picks we've made. For all the hand wringing about "getting worked" in trade ups, etc. is small fries in comparison to the absolute trash picks we've made. Hit on even half of the picks and this team is 8-8 or better. Just like in most industries the "fun" parts of the job are always overrun with incompetents (due to favortism and politics) when you have a bad leader. Look at Dallas. Jerry wants so bad to be involved in talent acquisitions that the team eternally sucks. Same for us.

I honestly think the huddle would run this organization better. We would draft better for sure. How is that possible when these guys devote their careers to it?

I can say that I have defended Canales because I get that they are doing all they can to keep from looking like idiots for drafting Bryce, from the trade up to signing $150m guards to drafting XL and Brooks etc---nothing seems to work. And Hiring Canales was part of the Bryce Young rehab program, so so he can't really decide to "move on." That has to come from Morgan and Tepper. Personally, I think Bryce is due for an injury. He is small, he is not thick, and he has been a LOT more healthy than most any other QB has who has endured so much pressure. The thing that bothers me is this---Bryce really does not go through his progressions quickly. He locks on to his presnap read and stays locked onto him for too long--he seems to fail to anticipate the WR/TE's positioning on the play before the cut--for example, if the WR is running a dig and the CB has his back to the inside of the field, he should be open for a second or less just after the cut. He seems to wait until the cut has been made before deciding, then checking down quickly while moving in the pocket. OL: There seems to be a lack of communication--is that on Mays? Watch this team presnap--they seem a bit confused at times. I can almost predict the success rate of the play by watching the center and QB before the snap.

Anyone else remember back in 2010 when Fox piloted having music under the in-game replays during one of Carolina's games? Not the commercial bumpers but the actual replay clips that the announcers would talk over. Pretty sure it was vs the 49ers. And it was terrible. Point being, Carolina continues being so bad that we get the networks trying things out during their games.

Is it bad I found this video more hilarious than pathetic? I am still laughing at that one play where half the people on the field ran into each other and Bryce still couldn't see Chuba wide open... Also laughing at Cade blocking nobody and somehow losing his cleat Man this offense is a poo show

I can see Canales getting a 3rd year if we better our win count from last season. If it’s worse then that’s probably it for him here unless they are going to give him first crack at developing a new quarterback.

I think Canales gets a 3rd year after making a change at DC.

Tepper didn’t have the wisdom to ban the move up for Bryce. Doesn’t matter what you think about Bryce, who can argue that the move at that cost is defensible at this point? It’s a crippling trickle down affect of no top first rounders under 5 year contracts. We then doubled down with leggette after trading up. We’re spiraling debtors. Of course present staff is willing to trade in futures when, if it fails, they’re not going to be around to weather the consequences anyway.

1 - that's exactly why I said he's a complication... He is causing symptoms... He's not just a symptom. 2 - People keep saying this about Darnold and it isn't entirely accurate. He was pretty good here in the 2nd half of 2022... He washed out because he still isn't a franchises answer at QB, even after an incredible season in Minneapolis. He's ultimately nobody's guy unless they can't do better... And this is coming from a bit fan of Darnold...

Salah with Mike McDaniel as OC with Mac Jones as our bridge QB so Salah can use all the draft capital to build his defense

The problem started when we let Beane walk instead of promoting him

Bryce is definitely part of tbe problem but he’s not THE problem. Think of it this way, Baker and Darnold looked totally washed in this team and found success elsewhere. All the other players that were drafted and released in last few years didn’t. Talent evaluation has been terrible from top to bottom. Tepper’s stink permeates deep into every fiber of the organization

Duke is pulling away now in the 4th qtr. Up 17 with 10 minutes left.
