And what would you add those pieces with? You gave up all your draft picks and half or more of your top defensive players you've already drafted.  No sir, this is a dumb decision that will haunt this team for years.  Bank it.

Didn't realize the deal was done. What did we give up?

Cam's tenure here wasn't all that because we did a piss poor job of surrounding him with talent on offense.

Steve Smith was the only WR Cam played with that would be better than Cam as receiver if Cam lined up wide.

Cam was always the best player on offense here including skill position players. He did it all .. carried the team. 

Maybe look at the trash that was charged with protecting Cam and getting open for Cam, when you wonder why the Cam days weren't as successful as they could've been.

We had all our draft picks then too and a reasonable QB contract.

You want this team to trade away a bunch of draft capital, players, and tie the hands of our cap with huge a QB contract.

Good luck building a winner handicapped in the draft and free agency because you already gave everything up for a QB ... all while Cam wins SB56 for 14 million and Pats gave nothing up for him.

Tepper is going to look like a total moron.

But i'm told that draft picks are indispensable, yet you claim we couldn't surround Cam with talent from those very same draft picks?  Hmmm

That’s what this franchise does....it makes stupid moves time and again.  I hope they don’t give up 3 firsts for Watson, but I have a bad feeling.

It's actually more like 5 with 2 of them in the form of proven 1st round players on defence, maybe more.  I wouldn't give that for Tom Brady.  But that's just me.

I agree.... I’m afraid Teppers obsession with a franchise QB will set this franchise back 5 years or more by giving away that much draft stock.

      How many Qbs can you name better than Bryce Young?

      By CRA · Posted

      I don't need that many words to say Bryce Young has not yet surpassed the caliber of QB play that current Joe Flacco represents.   I have watched every game Bryce has played.  He doesn't give you average QB play.   He can't make a ton of throws.  Bryce is consistent overall in what he is.  You can take outlier games on both ends of the spectrum out of play and judge him or any QB.....for Bryce it is unquestioned bottom of the league play.  All you have to do is watch the two play.  Flacco is good enough that if you can keep up right and give him time.....he presents a level of play Bryce can't do as a passer

      Not sure.  Which ones have more GWDs in the same time frame?

      You kinda gloss over this, but this is really at the crux of this whole argument....which Flacco are we talking here?  You bring up that he played with 3 different teams but ignore the fact that his performance varied quite a bit from team to team. 2024 Colts: 65.3% completion, 12 TDs, 7 INTs, 220.1 YPG, 7.1 Y/A, 90.5 rating 2025 Browns: 58.1% completion, 2 TDs, 6 INTs, 203.8 YPG, 5.1 Y/A, 60.3 rating 2025 Bengals: 63.4% completion, 12 TDs, 3 INTs, 290.6 YPG, 6.8 Y/A, 96.2 rating 2025 Flacco (Browns + Bengals): 61.1% completion, 14 TDs, 9 INTs, 252.0 YPG, 6.1 Y/A, 80.8 rating vs. 2025 Bryce: 62.7% completion, 14 TDs, 7 INTs, 196.2 YPG, 6.2 Y/A, 86.0 rating I bolded the comparison that I think objectively makes the most sense...just simply comparing the two QBs for the entire season.  Otherwise you'd be cherry-picking Flacco's time with the Bengals and ignoring his earlier stint with the Browns, which sounds an awful lot like people cherry-picking Bryce's stats in the second half of last season. So again, which Flacco?  Basically the only thing consistent with Flacco across each of these teams was his W/L records: 2-4, 1-3, and 1-4 respectively.  I'd say if we're comparing each version of him to Bryce this year: Colts Flacco > 2025 Bryce, Browns Flacco <<< 2025 Bryce, Bengals Flacco >> 2025 Bryce, and 2025 Flacco < 2025 Bryce - Flacco this year only beats out Bryce on YPG but in part because he throws significantly more passes (almost 60 YPG more than Bryce, despite a lower Y/A which is pretty telling) .  Flacco is maybe the most apt case study about how important a QB's circumstances are to his success.  He was easily a bottom 3 QB in Cleveland and arguably top 10-15 in Cincinnati...and we're talking about the same player from the same season.  All that happened was taking him from one team and plopping him onto another team; nothing inherently changed about him as a QB.  Funny enough I think that's all that one dude on here was trying to say when he made that long poorly-received post after having an epiphany working for PFF behind the scenes or w/e.  That it's largely short-sighted to just try to evaluate QBs in a vacuum when there are so many variables at play that ultimately decide whether a QB is successful or not.   I think Bryce has been mediocre at best this season and I'm ready to move on regardless of how he ends this season - I'm highly skeptical a strong end to the season will carry over into next year considering how last year ended and this year began.  I would certainly agree that he's a bottom-third QB this year.  I just don't understand you scoffing indignantly at anyone holding the opinion that Bryce has had a better season than Flacco...I can only assume it's recency bias.  Or maybe you know the stats don't support you, which is why you're conjuring up the god-forsaken arbitrary "eyeball test" which is the kinda thing people in here were saying about Fields for years, pinky promising that he really truly was a franchise QB despite his awful stats.  Perhaps it's called the eyeball test because I roll my eyes anytime I hear someone bring it up seriously as an argument.
