Ive been saying Kyle wasnt the answer all along. I didnt ever bash him. Im glad he played as well as he did before this game. I truly appreciate it. He was a unproven commodity, and I was always irked how quickly our fan base wanted us to kick Cam to the curb. Im thankful for Kyle because he actually gave Cam time to heal instead of forcing to play injured to keep Ron's job. So despite this game, Kyle salvaged the season, now if we get back the Cam we all know and love we can get another streak going again. Our only shot is the WC, even with two games left vs brees.

missing option for Allen already is a franchise QB. a lot of those plays people thought were bad were actually good if you know anything about football. for example, when he dramatically underthrew or overthrew receivers on every deep pass attempt he was trying to keep them from getting winded because he knows that it sucks to have to catch the ball and you can get tired or even hurt. he's playing at a level that we aren't used to seeing around here so fans dont know how to handle it.

I want Cam back but not against Tennessee and its 8th ranked defense. I rather have Allen the next two games and hope that he can split one. Then bring Cam in vs Atlanta. 

If Cam is healthy why wouldn’t you want him back? If he’s healthy and you still don’t want him to start because he might play badly against a solid defense then he definitely isn’t the guy either. We might as well start Grier for the rest of the year to see what he has if that’s the case.

If Cam's totally healthy you have to start him.  I gotta be honest though, I'm not sold that he's going to remain healthy enough throughout the year to be effective.  If he could become more of a pocket passer that would help.  Stop running him unless totally necessary.

I always believed he got crushed and hurt in the pocket a hell of alot more times than when he ran. Only time I know he got hurt running was his concussion in atl at the goaline.

Broke his ribs in 2014 against the Pats in preseason running as well and the shoulder was chasing down an interception but yes most of his big hits have been in the pocket.

      Hey You, You Don't Know Quarterbacking

      yeah, I can get a little of that.  But that's not what he is posting in his argument just now though.   He said people wouldn't even concede to the literal ability to do it when pressed on the literal ability.  I have never seen that.  He maintains it exists somewhere.  I mean, using anomaly games to make arguments about players just isn't the way.   There wasn't a defender within 10 yards of our guys on 2 of those 3 throws Sunday.  No one within 5 on the 3rd.   That's not Bryce Young answering questions about his play downfield..  That's Bryce Young taking advantage of coverage busts by a bad D.  Which hey, that's part of the game too.  Recognition and seeing the field.   It can't totally be dismissed.   That's still good play.  You want your QBs to make those plays.  But it's not getting into the long standing critique of BY IMO.

      Adam Thielen on Young

      Deserved, I wouldn’t use that word. Asked for? For sure. Am I upset over it? No.  People forget that AT was throwing his helmet in frustration last season over his QB’s ineptitude. The same QB was pretty inept to start this year, no guarantee AT would have helped him in those games any more than he did last year.  Just sayin.  And Dan doing him a solid probably did not go unnoticed by players around the league. I think it increases his rep with potential FAs. It sure can’t hurt it.

      You think that was the fault of the guy that was lighting it up or maybe the bums around him? Funnily enough, those bums are still being bums in his absence. Who would have thought!
