He had a bad game but he’s got a Super Bowl win and 2 appearances. 

Those are team stats. He’s had his moments but is quite clearly not a top tier QB and the team has won partially in spite of him, not because of him. I’d take him any day over Bryce and most other QBs out there but it was always silly when people would put him in the Mahomes, Burrow, etc. tier. I think Herbert is a better QB than him, and he’s not in that top tier either

Maybe the Chargers will finally get over the hump.  Then they might get to play a home game in LA

I hope they take the divisions, fug Payton and the Broncos

Haha fug the eagles what an awesome game ending pick!!

The Bucs have been struggling badly as of late so the Aints beating them doesn’t really say much about the Aints being any good. Even Shough (or however you spell it) wasn’t even good and the Bucs still beat themselves.

We beat ourselves in the first matchup. If we can take down the Rams the Aints should be easy for us if we’re locked in and dialed in and guys don’t overlook them or assume it’ll be a gimme like last time. And need Bryce to not be absolutely awful like he was in the first matchup. But I do feel good about this game coming off the bye, I think we’ll finally get a convincing win with all 3 phases playing well (Atlanta blowout was good but the O really didn’t do much that game). 
 

Hopefully we take care of business as we should and the Falcons can spoil the Bucs this Thursday so we can see what this team is made of at home in a couple weeks. I’m still very very far from sold on Canales/Morgan, despite the surprisingly solid year we’ve had so far. Bryce I am sold on not being the answer, but the more Canales can get out of him the more confidence I’ll have that he can help us develop a true franchise QB

Politics aside I got tired of seeing the Pats in the Super Bowl almost every year, then Brady with the Bucs, the Chiefs filled that void in an annoying way, just ready to mix it up and have a new champion every year instead of these dynasty teams

Brady and Belichick have always been incredibly unlikeable and have multiple cheating scandals.

I get not enjoying seeing the same team win a lot but I don’t understand that as a reason for hating them like a lot of people do — blame all the other teams that haven’t been able to beat them, it’s not like this is the MLB with no cap and they’re just outspending everyone like the Dodgers. It’s an even playing field and they’ve just been better than everyone else.

Mahomes’ family can be kind of annoying but I’ve never seen any reason at all to dislike him on or off the field. And Reid is about as likable as it gets for a coach. I can’t believe all the people out there overjoyed by and slobbering at the broncos winning the division over them, with fuging scumbag Sean Payton as coach.

They brought enough off field distractions on themselves the last couple of years, bound to hit a wall at some point. fug em

I don’t really understand the hate especially from fans of NFC teams other than Philly/San Fran

Kelce needs to retire lol

No thanks

There's a chance we could be resting starters for the last 2 weeks lmao.

Once they lose to Atlanta on Thursday we can wrap the division with Wins against the saints next week and the bucs at home

Dude this is actually insanely possible, holy crap lol

shouldve ran it there

Missed call helping the Saints out a ton lol... Mugging a receiver and no call 

Makes up for the bullshit PI earlier that gave the Bucs a TD drive

I feel so dirty rooting for the Aints, but let’s fuging go. One more sustained drive is all I’m asking for. At least it’s not Payton coaching them

Uhh that interception on 1st and 5 was atrocious. That QB should never see the field again

Hell of a start from the Aints. They may actually pull this off.

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.
