Wel, double down and throw a parlay on some college football. I knew I should have bet on JMU and Buffalo to win this past weekend which would’ve netted quite a bit but I didn’t pull the trigger.

Bro, I’m 5’10, don’t do me like that.

I’m a good person. It doesn’t mean I can play in the NFL. I can beast in Madden, and maybe that’s Bryce’s path, e-sports. Madden Tournaments, etc.

Like I said, he would be better suited to the XFL/USFL like PJ Walker did.

The Vikings are going to have to pay Darnold to keep him and they won’t do that considering they have McCarthy. I say that you spend your draft resources on defense and sign Darnold to a deal similar to what Baker got in Tampa, if Darnold will come back. Darnold can play as well as he’s playing right now with Canales as Head Coach and if we lock up Hubbard and Johnson. That’s what I want, anyway. I don’t expect it to happen but I wanted to retain Darnold after 2022 and we didn’t. I wanted to run back that whole staff for 2023 actually, along with picking up some Free Agent guards and maybe a receiver to play opposite Moore but, alas, that didn’t happen. So I say run it back with Darnold on a team friendly deal that is similar to Mayfield, retain Johnson and Hubbard, and see if we can’t get a few defensive studs. I’m excited to see what Canales could do. And before you flame me, realize that Darnold is still quite young

What are the difficult questions? No one cares what Canales does with Bryce right now, literally no one. He is on the bench and will remain there. Now if the national media wanted to ask a few politicians hard questions about why they change their policy propositions (something like 16 of them), I’d be all for that. This, however, is much ado about nothing.

Username checks out.

I agree. There is no need to put Bryce in. If you think he can develop into something, you keep him on to run scout team and learn how to read NFL defenses. That is his biggest issue right now honestly. It’s not his arm, it’s not his athleticism, it’s his processing. Andy was successful today because he knows how to read defenses pre and post snap.

Okay? Only beta’s comment on the alpha nature of others. True alphas just let it ride my man.

At this point, I think people have to feel bad for him though. No one is going to be mad at him for simply lacking the ability and experience. Again, we made the mistake of taking a guy who was not a plug and play guy. You don’t trade what we did to get a guy who has to sit for two to three years to learn. You may trade up into the 2nd or 3rd round for a dude, or take someone who falls into your lap sort of like the Falcons did with Penix, but you don’t trade players and future picks for someone like Bryce, period. The way this whole thing was handled does not scream “GM and Head Coach make decision”. This, to me, seems like a decision someone would make playing Madden because they want someone from their favorite college program. You don’t take the rookie with a 65 rating that you have to build up for seasons and resources, you take the guy with an 80 or 85.

Cam was a slow processor as well. When athleticism could not longer save him, he faltered.

Does anyone trade for him though? Look at how Dalton has played with the same group. His presence has elevated everyone, including the defense today. Bryce, to me, is worse than PJ Walker and really doesn’t belong on any NFL roster.

Look at how the team responds to Dalton versus Young. All of that talk about Bryce being done dirty by the Panthers can be put to bed. The only mistake the Panthers made was drafting him at all.

Legette will figure that out at some point. He is looking like he was worth that pick though. Could be a solid number two if we wanted to resign Johnson.

TV guy clearly didn’t watch the games or check our roster. Everyone is playing “better” because of Andy Dalton. They aren’t just playing better in a vacuum.

Bryce really should go to the USFL/XFL to see if he can develop there. He’s not going to be given time in the NFL. Based on how Andy looks today, with the same exact team, Bryce is so far off he really isn’t even worth stashing on a practice squad. I’d like to say that the TV guy is wrong, a lot of us saw this coming. I posted on a thread that Andy would have 300 yards, 2 touchdowns, and Johnson for have 100 yards receiving, and Chubba would get to 100 yards. All have come true.

22 games according to radio.

Love to say I told you so. Love to see it.

Something about jimmys and joes, X’s and O’s? We don’t have the players on defense right now, particularly on the line. We invested a ton to help Bryce because that’s what he required, and the defense suffered.

Where did you see it? Go get a screengrab.

Basically everything I had been saying. Bryce belongs in the XFL. That much is obvious.

Holy poo. Johnson didn’t forget how to play receiver. Dalton through 20 minutes of game time: 10/13 124 yards and two touchdowns.

Dalton has already thrown for over 100 yards with completions to 6 receivers.
