I don't see a scenario where we win enough games to get a wildcard spot but not enough to win the division so I view any team's games besides our and the Bucs to be irrelevant. Sure there's some statistical longshots but I'm not gonna worry about any of those. If it happens and we get in via wildcard I'll take it, but just gotta focus on winning the rest of our division games. Seahawks game would be nice too for some cushion if the Bucs drop one then we could split our series.

Bryce Young's presence on this team will continue to hold us back significantly, even if his cap hit is "cheap" (which is very debatable whether it is on the 5th year option). I won't be pissed about picking up the 5th year option as it is low risk and not necessarily an indicator that this team wants to stick with Bryce but the best decision by far is to trade him right after this season and go full clean slate at QB.

GM Dan Morgan:

- Traded Diontae Johnson and a 6th to BAL for a 5th.
- Traded Jonathan Mingo to DAL for a 4th.
- Traded Adam Thielen to MIN for a package including a 4th and 5th.
 

that’s master class work

Dan’s been doing better than I’ve expected but let’s not crown him yet. He was also involved in trading for Diontae and drafting Mingo in the first place…

10 wins doesn't get a wildcard spot this year. I think our only path to the playoffs realistically is the division. I really don't buy into the Bucs at all but division games are incredibly weird regardless of how good the teams are on paper. I think we beat Aints, split Bucs and lose to Seahawks and miss the playoffs a game behind Tampa. Hopefully I'm wrong and we sweep them and take the division.

Canales has coached the hell outta this team 

He has flaws but also has gotten a lot of really good resilience and tenacity instilled in this team and definitely a shift in the culture. 7-6 with a QB playing awful for all but like 2-3 games and some big wins over 2 contenders in the Rams and Packers is insanely good.

also as much as I’ve trashed Evero in the past, he’s growing on me. The D has been fuging legit the last few months despite some holes talent wise. 

COKER ENDS IT!!!!

Change my mind. You can’t

DERRICK BROWN!!!!!!!! Let’s fuging gooooo

Nah they’re about even overall, different skillsets. Dowdle capable of doing more with less which we’ve needed at times this year.

Incredible pass protection. Nice throw and catch

Chuba is possessed, incredible game from him 

Ransom !!

Coker!!!! That may have been the best throw of Bryce’s career

Coker is fuging legit. He and Tet will help form a great group for our next QB 

Uhh lmao wtf is happening

Haven’t been able to watch, just check the score — was Bryce’s TD even remotely impressive or just a dump off to Chuba?

If he does well he's our QB

He can throw for 500 yards and 7 TDs and he’s still not our answer at QB 

I think he’s got guys bought in unlike any coach since Rivera (well, Wilks did briefly), but he struggles with accountability.

20+ point loss seems pretty damn inevitable here. We’re not going to score much as usual with Bryce and with no Horn the D as solid as they’ve been much of the year will get cooked by the league MVP who has an elite OL, weapons and coaching.

I have no idea what they are planning to do. None of their decisions regarding Bryce have made sense to date.

I fear they’re going to be fuging clowns again and go into next year with Bryce as “starter” but bring in some “token competition” by swapping Dalton for a different crappy vet and/or mid/late round rookie.

I heard several sports handicappers this week say they’re starting to wonder if Bryce was the guy at Carolina. These are people whose opinions I respect, but if you don’t know by now, it’s obvious you never watch Panthers games. He’s simply not an NFL starting QB. 

The last time I was “wondering” was like week 11 his rookie year. It’s been 100% clear and obvious since then that he’s not an NFL caliber player 

I like cmc and always have but dude went like 3 straight years being hurt the whole time, the return sucked for a player his caliber but I can’t be too upset about the trade. He’s been good with the Niners but the injuries haven’t escaped him there either and he hasn’t won a SB with them and probably won’t.

I think Kaye is selling some bologna with that take.....presenting fairly even sample of great, okay and bad.  They don't split like that. 

I mean, selling Bryce/Canales as "fine" with the freaking Jets game?  Bryce had 138 yards and they were horrible there.  First Atlanta game? Bryce had 121 yards and couldn't move the ball (they didn't need to but still tried).  Phins? Bryce was horrible and Rico carried us out of the hole w/ an all-time performance. 

There aren't 3 blocks the games fall fairly even into.  It's been largely all bad and subpar play from Bryce and Canales.   You basically give him the one Atlanta game as the great one.   One okay game with Dallas (that was all Rico eating that game and Bryce getting some scraps off that).  The rest bad/subpar. 

The games fall overwhelming into the bad/subpar tier....and that's not what he is portraying.  He is still putting some spin on there Bryce/Canales shouldn't be getting.

He has 2 good games in his entire career. Atlanta this year and GB his rookie year. Every other game was average/subpar or awful. That’s it
