After 2 bad games. Short week traveling to west coast in one of the more hostile environments yeah I could see them giving him a week off 

This is what I was thinking. If the ankle is legit dinged it's a good excuse to give him an opportunity to step back and not set him up for another failure going on the road to Seattle on a short week. The real entertainment begins if Dalton actually plays surprisingly well.

He’s playing. Not even entertaining idea he isn’t for my mental health.

We obviously want to see how our offense does with Dalton leading

[DeAngelo Beason]

Congratulations to the Chicago Bears on owning the #1 and #2 picks of the draft.

Lol...and here it comes.

But fitt and Frank said they had “conviction” for Bryce. They spent all off-season pumping this kid up and we were reminded how savvy and experienced this coaching staff is and how perfect they would be for any QB much less a rookie.

And he will.

Checking in!  Conspiracy time. Frank is his lab of predictable play calling cooking up another genius idea. 

What if we just use this ankle as the excuse to give our drowning rookie QB a breather out of my horrific offense.  I mean, we can't just say that.   They will never figure it out. 

I mean, Bryce out there being clowned for lining up behind a guard and being the worst QB in the NFL.  Frank probably doing the right thing.  

or maybe he is legitimately hurt.  But it sure does feel like the current trajectory of keeping him in after the last 2 weeks seems like a bad plan to build up the kid.  What we are doing isn't' working....and next up is a road game at the deafening Seattle.   It projects at least for it to go even worse for Young this week.  Tough tough place to keep things on schedule there for even a vet. 

Like most conspiracy theories, this one makes little to no sense.

You don't think Frank Reich realizes that if Bryce fails his career as a head coach is over? What would be the point of trying to hide him like this when even a playoff berth with Andy Dalton at QB wouldn't save Reich in the long run if Bryce ends up being a bust.

They still think they can make playoffs

Benching him without benching him.  Bryce lovers call it a conspiracy.  If Dalton lights it up  just wait for this board to meltdown.

Dalton is trash. Let’s not kid ourselves 

[jimfear]

Bryce needs all the snaps he can get..... but I can't lie and say it wouldn't give me some joy to see us get some W's just to mess with the fuggin Bears fans that keep popping up everywhere like roaches.

[Silent Majority]

Extra day of wound licking, mental health and film study. He will play. If not, however....uh boy

Dalton can muster up a couple wins. 

I'll take just one at this point.
