I gotta be honest, outside the run defense at times and obviously the pass catchers, the team looked pretty decent. 

QB was the worst, receivers were #2 and that run defense was a close third.

Two of my three concerns going into the season.  A short yardage back was my third concern and the failed 4th and short attempt proved that point.

That was such a fuging stupid play call. Either spread it out and go or go heavy and QB sneak. 

That was the dumbest play call of the game.

Easily my biggest gripe of the offseason was the lack of a power back. Hated that call by the coach and GM to ignore it, and we're gonna pay for it with a lot of 3rd and 1s that lead to failed 4th and 1s (because Reich hates kickers)

I'd say easily the WRs were the worst, because I'm gonna pin most miscommunications on them, as was the case with Cam in 2011. The OL was fine and the pass rush was better than expected. The QB is a rookie who made some nice plays and a few bad ones, and the run defense was as bad as expected.

What surprised me more than anything, by FAR, was how often I was saying "What is Frank Reich thinking"

Really? Did you not watch Frank Reich at IND?

This plus the fact that Miles Sanders played really bad, and doesn't look like any kind of an upgrade over just rolling with Chuba and a replacement level backup.

If PJ Walker played like Bryce Young in his first game, you'd all want him benched and never see the field again. 

Well. One's a Rookie and very young, no pun intended. PJ Walker was an Undrafted FA and a few years in the League when he made his first start. Plus, he has ZERO potential while Young has a ton. That comparison, like most do on here was trash.

    • Bryce averaged 208 yards per game with a 61% completion since coming back.  How is that top 10?
    • Actually,  what lines up with your ideas he is too short or small to be successful.? His passing completions or total yards? Bryce is going into his 13th game with a legitimate offense and good offensive coach. And during that time he went from the worst qb in the league to top 10 by the end of the year based on game production against a number of playoff teams.  And he showed that he can lead comebacks and score under pressure at the end of the game and overtime. He stayed cool under pressure and was one of the best against the blitz by year end. That is the holy grail in quarterback traits and Bryce went from crumbling under pressure to stepping up and delivering strikes down the field. Maybe it is me but those kind of qualities far out weigh a few inches or a few pounds here and there.  Everyone holds their breath when he get whacked by a 350lb linemen and exhales when he magically arises seemingly unfazed. And yeah when he is backpedalling and tosses one out there as if it is random only to float into Thielen's hand it seems just luck. Kind of like Russell Wilson years ago. But I think you are letting your past rob you of enjoying what I hope is happening which is the development of our franchise guy. And for the record I am all about bringing in competition  at all positions including quarterback.
