He reminded us that he's still just a rookie. He had a horrible performance. A couple drops he should've had, some bad routes and the fumble that gave up a TD. Hope he can improve from this game by watching the tape but we can't ignore that he was pretty horrible today.

He had a terrible, terrible day.  But it wasn't completely terrible.   A lot of his bad plays were really close to being good plays.  In the fumble play, he made a great catch right before losing the ball.  In one of his drops, he made a great catch, but the defender ripped it away from him.  In the failed TD catch where he couldn't find the ball, he was still in a great position to make a play.  He still needs a lot of work, but he shouldn't be too bummed out about it.

Look, he IS a rookie but goddammit was he horrible today. There's no excuse for his performance. He should have been benched. If your head isn't in the game, then don't play. Benjamin let our offense down when we needed him the most.

 

He shouldn't have been benched and you're blowing it way out of proportion.  He had a bad game it happens.

Patience is a virtue.. he's a rookie and you should expect him to have a few stinkers his first two seasons. Once he hits his stride, he's going to be unstoppable, but not if we bench him every time he has a bad game, as it'll ruin his confidence.

 

Give him some time to develop. It'll pay huge dividends in the long run.

    • Actually, it's an age-old problem. Nobody wants to admit they were wrong & don't do anything to correct, thinking tomorrow will prove them right. The problem blew up to outer space levels as the internet expands with the problem reaches almost every facet of life as we know it. I recall the levels of hype preceding the Fitterer/Frank/Young combo that was going to rule the NFL for years. Hundreds of Huddle pages & thousands of posts over the past 3 years later, there are still posters who still point fingers, never admitting any failure on their part.
    • This is Canales second season. He has officially coached 1 season and 1 game. He made Bryce look decent for a bit. At some point, you have to cut bait with Bryce.  I think Morgan has been digging his way out of a hole forced on him to trade up in 2023 to get Bryce. Tepper wanted his guy, GM and coach be damned. That's on Tepper, not Morgan. Trying to work around that isn't easy and we still deal with the repurcussions.  I'd be fine keeping Canales if we do decide to move on from Bryce. I think he could be a great Head Coach, given a QB with the right measurables. Defensive development takes time and unfortunately we traded up to get Bryce when we had a roster unready for a rookie QB, and then we traded away assets that would have been used to build a core of talent.
    • Bryce played bad on Sunday. I understand a lot of teams have bad Week 1s so comparing a bad QB play across the league might make it look more normal. The issue with this is a lot of these other QBs have way more games of solid QB play so they are looking more like a typical week 1 outlier. Bryce doesn’t have that luxury right now. He can still turn it around but it needs to be done sooner vs later. He controls his own destiny this year.
