So why the hell do we need a QB that can throw the ball 70 yards when it's not done by anyone in games?

Cannon for an arm is such an overrated trait. I'll take ball placement and touch over that poo any day. So much more important.

Vastly overrated, but a big deal to the "highlight reel" scouts.

Goofy as it sounds, I've actually had people tell me they'd just as soon watch an exciting loss as a boring win.

Winning is never boring.

What does winning feel like?  Its been like 7ish years since I vaguely remember something to that effect

i 100% believe we're getting ready to experience that again. i haven't felt this good or this confident about the team since Cam got here.

I hope we dominate this year. I feel like we will(especially with our coaching staffs track record) but I have a nagging suspicion otherwise, not a big one by any means, there’s just something that keeps nagging me out the messaging on QB’s so far. Next year we will be getting a division title for sure.

What messages about the QBs is causing you concern? Everything has been good so far.

I've said it before...there's no one that scares me in this division or on our schedule this year. Everything is lining up for a good successful season.

I know 2025 feels like it was a century ago, but it wasn't really that long.

Just how they are dancing around not not committing to giving our young prodigy the reps during camp.(mind you I haven’t really paid attention since just after the draft as the canes were playoffing until last week so if the coaches have said otherwise I missed it). I worry about daltons ability to stay healthy. I really think Young is a first year into the fire QB and I don’t want to see us dancing around the subject. Like I said there is a good chance I missed something. Just can’t shake that feeling.

Keep the practice videos coming please. Bryce looking great.

You've obviously missed something.

They've been giving Bryce the majority of the reps since the rookies and the vets have been together. They said they'd do as such during their pressers shortly after the draft, and the beat writers have written about how Bryce has gotten the most reps out of the QB's and has basically split or possibly even taken more 1st team reps than Dalton. 

I know you've said you've been out of the loop but yeah I don't think you have to worry about them not committing to giving Bryce the reps because everything so far has indicated that they have.

They said he's going to be getting the most reps and he has and no one is talking about him being anything but the starter. Players and coaches have been pretty open about it. He's the guy. They haven't danced around it in the last 2 weeks and even then no one was buying it

Well considering the longest throw in NFL history was Baker Mayfield’s 70.5yd Hail Mary that wasn’t even a completion, I’d say it is literally not a thing.

OK so replace 70 with 60+ and my original point still stands
