The offense is not getting worse each week. If anything, it has been remarkable how consistently vanilla, boring and conservative it's been. Take Bryce out of the equation; Andy Dalton had to throw the ball damn near 60 times to get to 360 yards in Seattle. And the run game has been nonexistent regardless of who has been at QB.

not even close. The Saints trading an entire draft + a 1st & 3rd the next year to draft a RB is FAR worse.

How can any play "only" go to one receiver?

He's been disappointing for sure. If we have a chance to upgrade at LT we need to move him inside because Zavala ain't it.

On 80 attempts.

Oh good lord. This is the dumbest poo I've ever heard. Now the NFL owners conspired to have David Tepper buy the Panthers so they wouldn't have to worry about us beating them? An NFL owner doesn't need an excuse to be bad; most of them are clueless on actual football matters. Tepper is no different. He just likes to talk a big game that he can't back up.

Bryce has shown flashes, yes. People here just refuse to see it. The Huddle loves to be miserable.

They'll always hate him because he's not Cam Newton.

Regardless, the fact that Reich would burn a timeout because he didn't know Adam Thielen wasn't on the field is a sign right there of how clueless he is as a playcaller.

Looks about right. No downfield game whatsoever.

He threw two passes into the endzone early in the game that should have been caught.

You're right, it IS a problem that the coaching staff doesn't trust him to throw the ball down the field. Because he CAN throw it downfield. The coaching staff is handling him with kid gloves and there's no reason for it. THAT'S the biggest difference between him and Stroud/Richardson. All we heard about all offseason was how Bryce wasn't limited in running the offense. We saw him in camp routinely make throws downfield (remember all the D.J. Chark hype?) and then as soon as the games start everything is dink and dunk and they don't trust him to throw downfield? I call bullshit on that.

What the hell are you talking about? Nobody on this board can agree on anything EXCEPT that Derrick Brown is playing out of his mind.

That Bryce doesn't have the arm to throw into the endzone from the 18-yard line. That's pure ignorance. BTW, can y'all please do something about these damn ads that cover the entire page?

Not as a rookie he doesn't. This isn't Madden. The fact that he's playing as well as he is with so much garbage around him is, frankly, a miracle.

I always thought you were smarter than to say something so ignorant.

He was fine today. If you can actually watch that game and come away thinking Bryce Young is the problem then you don't know enough about football to have an educated opinion. I'm not saying it's a sure bet that Bryce becomes a star, but I am saying he is not being given a fair chance behind this OL, throwing to these receivers and running these junior varsity plays that Reich is calling. And despite that he had a solid game today. You guys are being WAY too hard on him, presumably because you'd rather be right about your pre-draft opinion of him than see him succeed.

Michael Irvin once said he cried after almost every game his rookie year because they lost so much. It wasn't because he couldn't play or because he was soft. It was because he cared about winning and despised losing. Some of you need to grow up.

They're saying it because he's not Cam Newton.

You can't blame Frank Reich. We just don't have enough Adam Theilens to run all the routes in his playbook.

Jim Brown couldn't crack 3 YPC behind our OL right now.

Makes sense for both leagues, IMO. There's just not enough interest - to say nothing of decent players - to support two spring leagues.

Generally I'd agree, but getting a known quantity for a 3rd round pick is a pretty safe move if it's actually on the table. Unlike giving up a 3rd rounder for C.J. Henderson, who hadn't shown much in Jacksonville and we acquired based on untapped potential. I'm not as big a Jerry Juedy fan as some here, but he's a solid player and 3rd round picks are pretty overrated in terms of your chances of actually drafting an impact player.

If we can't run the ball any better than last week it'll look something like this: 73/123, 443 yards, 1TD, 1 INT

For a 3rd? Absolutely.
