I don’t think Bryce can thrive in any system. He might be less bad in the 9ers system, but at the end of the day he wouldn’t make anyone around him better.

I watched part of that game (very small sample size), and he made a bunch of throws Bryce could only dream of. He would threaten the whole field every snap. We have no idea if he will pan out or not, but he looks to have everything you look for in a QB. Sitting for two years in GB looks to really have benefited him. We should not hesitate to go after him hard.

It should be an easy decision. Trade Bryce, sign Willis to a 3 year contract (at worst he’s a top tier backup), sign an additional experienced QB and draft a developmental toolsy project late in the draft. If Willis doesn’t work out you draft a QB early in 2027.

Two high priced FAs we should go after (signing one of them) are Quay Walker, the mlb from the Packers and Kayvon Thibodeaux from the Giants. Thibodeaux is a bit risky, but has a very high ceiling. The Giants could try to resign him, it would be crazy for them to spend that much on their d line, but I could also see it happening since they make really bad decisions.

I root for him, and I hope for the best, as does essentially everyone. But that doesn’t mean you can’t call out flaws and bad plays. And that’s what a lot of people get wrong. I hope I’m wrong and that he continues to improve a lot, I just doubt it. But I’ve been wrong before

If he’s fired, he might be our new DC. I always liked his defense in the past, a lot more aggressive than what we currently have. What’s everyones take on him as a potential DC for us?

I think everyone can agree that he’s doing better, but it is also ok to say that it’s not nearly enough and we need a different QB for long term success. This nuance seems completely lost on the Bryce hopefuls and is somehow twisted in to hate for Bryce. A lot of us just simple don’t believe he has what it takes.

He gets the blame because his role as the QB is to make plays, help the team score more points and elevate players around him. He does none of that. Just because he didn’t massively mess up doesn’t mean he wasn’t a reason for the loss. The bar some of you have for Bryce is incredibly low.

100% agree, trading him would be the best possible scenario. It allows for a clean start at QB and you get something back.

Agree, we have weapons, but we don’t have a starting quality quarterback. It still baffles me that some people don’t see it.

I’m all aboard on Sonny Styles. Impressive game vs. Indiana and exactly what we need to take our defense to the next level. He should go somewhere around our pick.

I have to disagree with your statement that Bryce has proven he’s capable of playing at a high level. He’s done it maybe 2-3 times out if 30+ games, so they are outliers until he does it a couple of times. And maybe we grade differently, imo the game against the Rams was far from great. I loved the two 4th down conversions, but the rest of the game was meh. Kyle Allen and a lot of other backups have also had a few good games. But that is not enough to prove you belong.
