Teddy is OK, but I really don't think he's the long term answer. 

Teddy is:

  • 2nd in Comp%
  • 25th in TD%
  • 15th in INT%
  • 7th in 1st Dwns thrown
  • 15th in Adjusted Yards/Att
  • 23rd in Yards/completion
  • 14th in Net yards/Att
  • 16th in Adjusted Net Yards/Att

Teddy is accurate but he is also very conservative with the ball. All in all, I'd say he's playing as a middle of the road QB. We can do worse, sure, but we could also do better and if a franchise QB is available whenever we pick in the draft next year, I think it would behoove us to jump on it.

We get to the playoffs, championship game, SB . . . whatever . . . with a talented team . . . comes down to the end of the game and you need a drive to win it.  Is TB5 your guy?  I dunno man, that situation scares me.

Haven't we already seen a few times this season how that plays out?

Yep. There's a lot of good about Teddy and some mighty good, too. Right now he is producing about middle of the road, and while we have been competitive in almost all of our games, it hasn't translated to wins yet. Do we move on? Maybe, maybe not.

On the maybe side, if one of the big name prospect QBs falls to our spot in the draft, I think you'd have to pull the trigger and put that guy on the bench to learn from Teddy for a year, maybe less. Maybe a younger arm with a good pedigree can make the difference. Then again, what might be the downfall for that prospect might also be what is keeping Teddy at the middle of the pack.

Our o-line is fair to poor with little depth. The center of the line just isn't very good, and our left tackle situation hinges on an injury-prone and moderately motivated first stringer and a second/third stringer that shows some promise and some deficiencies (Okung/Daley). We also don't really have a TE to speak of. 

We do have a good running back group and our receivers are better than advertised. 

This is all balanced out by a defense that, for all of the close games, really isn't that good at one factor: getting the other team off the field without scoring. We flat out suck at it. We've seen what, two punts total in two games now? No QB is ever really great if they are constantly in shoot-out mode and they have a deficiency in opportunities (not to mention field position... right now just about every series starts for Teddy with 75 yards of field ahead of him).

Yeah, a new QB might light things on fire and solve the problems. Or maybe we solve the problems for our QB and see how he performs. We can get more mileage out of the second approach, in my opinion.

      PFF ranks the 2025 starting QBs

      100%. And these same people will claim you have an agenda. You can't have it every way. We had the lowest rated defense in the league last year. Statistically the worst ever. By PFF grades (for whatever that's worth- but they are readily accepted, used, and conveyed by most "reputable" sources), the defense was the worst ever. Not only that, PFF rated our receiving corp the worst in football last season. The absolute worst... out of 32 teams. Which is why regardless of the lip service Canales and Morgan paid to the current guys, they knew it would be criminal not to give Bryce more help. People fixating on team stats and not taking these things into context are stupid, plain and simple, and I'm for one thankful they're not running this team (or probably anything for that matter bc they obviously can't discern reality. Again, going back to the eyeball test these Narrative Nancies seem to hate so much, did they not see the windows Bryce was putting balls into? Have the generally not watched much NFL? Please, please show me the film where all these NFL QBs are making throws like this to this point Bryce was "below average" down the stretch compared to them. Bryce made more wow throws in that 3 game stretch of the Bucs, Chiefs, and Eagles than every other QB combined in all the years since since Cam got hurt I genuinely am baffled by people that can watch throws like that and act like it's nothing. I guarantee you Steve Spagnola, Todd Bowles, and and Vic Fangio didn't think it was nothing after watching the little guy torch them with players those teams would be embarrassed to trot out at the skill position players. The national media spent all year making excuses for Mahomes not having elite weapons when he had multiple 1st & 2nd round talents at the skill positions along with future HoFers in Kelce and Hopkins. Bryce wasn't throwing for 300 yards every week with David Moore and Adam Theilen in spite of jaw dropping throws and you want to say the guy played below average. For those people, again, we ain't watching the same sport. And the name calling doesn't change that... The vitriol and projection... it's off the effing charts with these people.

      "Well you see if you remove this terrible game that terrible game this other terrible game and then focus on these games you'll see he's actually one of the better QB's in the league and he's actually as good as Jayden Daniels". My god this place is delusional. I love it.
