I wish the enthusiasm of fans guaranteed success for a player on the field.

I'm behind whomever we play. I don't believe this will be Corral's only opportunity. Very few NFL players with significant talent / college hype only get one. Even Clausen got at least 3 chances, lol.

Yep. If he is the real deal, he will get his chance to show it.

I think we do carry 3 going into the season, but we may trade one out before the deadline to someone with a QB injury. Trading before there's an emergency need out there just isn't going to happen, there's no real market for either Darnold or Mayfield at this point.

PJ on special teams is possible, I guess, but I just don't see it. Those special teams spots are too important and we were too weak on ST last year to use even one spot for stashing an old friend. PJ may well find him a spot on a USFL team or XFL team if that gets back off the ground this year.

PJ is practice squad eligible.  I don’t think Rhule dumps his guy in a hotseat year.  Especially not one where we stumbled into 2 wins with him.

He in nooooo way lacks confidence. You can scratch that off the list.

He's supremely confident and is putting on a circus display of accuracy.

He should play. Those other guys screwed up THEIR shot. Neither should be allowed to deny his shot. That's the way I see it.

He's done everything right. He's a bully. He's super aggressive. If that can be harnessed we all of a sudden have a Russell Wilson situation.

Why not us? Why NOT Matt. He's working super hard for the job. He's heavier, all cut up, all man. Young Lion indeed. Buckets! IF Baker did it it'd be bonkers. He hasn't. I've seen no video evidence. Why? 

I’m pulling for him too, but let’s not get ahead of ourselves

Agreed. We actually seem to have made improving ST a point of emphasis this offseason. new and improved coordinator, big time punter, return specialist...

    • It's honestly pretty interesting just seeing this pairing play out. Canales’ offenses (Seattle, Tampa) are run-first, under-center, play-action systems built around defined reads and intermediate/deep timing throws. That structure worked when he had QBs like Baker Mayfield or Russell Wilson in a system that created clear launch points and sightlines. His success has always been tied to a credible run game + play-action gravity. You can see that with the Panthers team building philosophy as well. Coker and TMac both are bigger receivers that won't get the best YAC production but thrive as possession receivers in contested scenarios. They're not the best in space and creating additional yardage in such, and would likely fair better systematically with a stronger armed QB who can create better opportunities on those boundary 1v1 matchups with stronger throws. Bryce, on the other hand, is a spread-native QB. His strengths are rhythm, spacing, quick processing, and off-script creation. Asking him to live in condensed formations with long-developing play-action concepts just hasn't been his forte. And well, his boundary throws are limited in velocity which takes a big chunk of the playbook off. And I mean a QB like Bryce can still work, it's just Dave's offensive philosophy and foundation is very much at odds with Young's physical limits and his own experience. So it's certainly still a learning experience for Dave to figure out how he can mesh his offensive philosophy with Young's strengths. He's very inexperienced with maximizing Bryce's strengths with his system. Would love to see us bring in an OC with spread experience and adaptability to implement a cohesive system with Dave to allow Bryce to thrive, as it's obvious we're sticking with him for a bit longer.   
    • Only thing I really agreed with is questioning why we didn’t take any timeouts on their last drive.  I know hindsight is 20/20, but I think it would’ve saved clock bc they were desperate to score as soon as the opportunity presented itself, but I also think it could’ve helped the defense regroup and maybe give us a better chance to stop them.
