Hurts looks like pure ass tonight.

Same on all counts. Thank you for your objective ability to watch football lol.

So, I like Shedeur, but as I’ve said in previous threads, in terms of the upcoming draft, Mendoza is the one guy I would lock in on.

You’re in the minority, I’m aware of his reputation for holding onto the ball too long, but give me someone whose issue is holding onto the ball too long but can hit a wide open 50 yard air pass when it’s there over a guy who often just doesn’t pull the trigger or can’t make the throw at all. Again, the point of this thread is, no matter how Bryce finishes the year, competition needs to be brought in and an influx of talent at QB. I happen to like Shedeur and if he was an option, as a young QB in his rookie contract, to me seems like a good idea if the price is right.

Scot, I’ve watched his full games.. Since college. I’m aware of the perceived weaknesses and flaws. Yet, we have/had a front office full of paid football professionals who “full game” scouted Bryce Young and thought he was worthy of the #1 overall pick. We also have a faction of our fanbase that, even when presented with a better option at QB, choose to keep believing in Bryce Young despite the fact that even with his occasional Atlanta games, or how he played against the Rams, he is still the statistically worst starting QB in the NFL since he’s been at the helm. So, it can’t be based off play or scouting. So what is it based off of?

Always appreciate you, AL. But it’s clear if you look at the initial post and the amount of poo reactions I got combined with all the decades old burns these troglodytes typed up, the vast majority of their objections are rooted in Shedeur and Deion hate. I have seen a ton of “If Deion wasn’t his dad” arguments, but let me flip that - If Deion wasn’t his dad, and as a 5th round rookie, he just threw for 350+ yards and had 4 TDs, 99% of these guys would be interested in acquiring him. I see why our fanbase is such a joke… these the same folks who have spent 30 years hemming and hawing “well, there’s always next year,” or argued Chris Weinke should be starting over Jake through 2006, or we should’ve drafted Marcel Dareus over Cam. They’re okay with mediocrity. We finally have vaulted ourselves into contention in spite of the QB who has tried to play us out of it most games, and now they’re fat and happy and cool with the bare minimum from the QB position, so the cycle continues. Dont get me wrong, again, for the sake of this year I hope Bryce goes on a magical run, and against all odds, we win the Super Bowl. But after the last 3 years, even if he does, we would be dumb to not still bring in competition to start at the QB position.

As I’ve said in other threads, the amount of chances Bryce has been given is the definition of entitlement. I’ve never before seen a guy be handed something he’s done everything in his power to piss away and show he wasn’t deserving of it. He has been given chance after chance after chance and at every turn, he showed he wasn’t deserving. And not only was he still given the job, but this organization went out of their way to coddle him and ensure nothing threatened his ego or confidence - measures usually reserved for proven franchise QBs. Deion may have put Shedeur in advantageous positions, but Shedeur is overcoming adversity on his own and he is showing out.

And despite that, he has been given nothing by the NFL and Stefanski. His own HC has tried to sabotage him and Shedeur still worked and just put up a performance no rookie QB has within such a short time frame since the merger. It wasn’t handed to him. He earned it.

Can’t hold us responsible if the NBA didn’t disclose it either.

Some of this is just brainstorming/throwing poo against the wall, seeing as how we have one of the least talented QB rooms in the league. We need a talent infusion badly. I feel Shedeur has the prerequisite talent athletically and as a passer, and I have since his college career. Do I think he will actually be traded this offseason? 99% not likely. On one hand, he’s proven to likely be the best QB on their roster. On the other, they, and no other team wanted to take a chance on him for 4 rounds, so there has to be a price they would be willing to part ways with him for. That’s why I brought up the Joe Milton situation as an example. He was drafted to a team who took another rookie QB much earlier in the draft, spent his rookie year with them, then was traded before his second year for a relatively low value. But, again, I also think the attention Shedeur naturally garners makes teams uncomfortable about rostering him if he’s not a starter. I don’t think we trade for him, and I don’t think the Browns trade him anywhere. That being said, this is a message board. Possibilities are fun to discuss and we’re here for discussion. also,I’m talking about a trade for a mid-late round pick for a talented QB/developmental QB on his rookie deal; that is the antithesis of the Matt Flynn situation. He had a solid couple games in GB and Seattle broke the bank on him and he bombed big time. That’s a valley of difference between the situations.

lol Shedeur is a rookie and is already better than Bryce. Bryce didn’t have a single game like that as a rookie. Shedeur has only started, what? 2 or 3 games? And it’s not after one good game, I’ve been saying he was possibly the best QB in this draft class - number two at worst, prior to the draft. I think he fell because owners had an axe to grind with Deion and Shedeur also suffers from the same issue Cam faced as a personality - he’s too big to be a backup and teams don’t want that distraction in their backup.

You guys sure have some sick burns for people who have preached patience for 3 straight years to wait for a QB to show us he is the 32nd ranked starting QB since he’s been in the league. I also said to never trade up in the 2023 draft and wait for Drake Maye the next year. Yet, here we are. But yuck it up fellas…

Regardless of how our season goes, most unanimously agree, we need to revamp the QB position. I been banging the table for Shedeur for a few years now, and he is proving his worth… we honestly should’ve drafted him but it doesn’t matter now. I think he’s going to have a similar path as Joe Milton, where he was drafted late and flipped for a slightly better pick than where he was drafted at prior to his second year. Maybe a 4th rounder? also, Stefanski is a POS.

First place. And fug the saints and bucs.
