Someone logically explain to me how pretending Bryce has an injury can be beneficial in any way to the coaches? 

 

Fitt/Frank are 100% tied to the success of Bryce Young. 

so yeah, not ruining him out the gate benefits them both.  And the current trajectory was really bad through 2 games.  Seattle was projecting to continue the bad trend.  We don’t have the offense presently to support a rookie QB.  It’s how you ruin a QB.   So they pumped the breaks. 

It’s very easy to see why pumping the breaks is to everyone’s benefit….because everything hinges on him developing.

See this is where you lost me. There’s not any concrete evidence benching him will be meaningful in any way. Peyton Manning threw 28 picks his rookie year. Luck had a QBR of 54 his rookie season. I could go on and on and on with #1 picks that started immediately. None of them got benched. The absolute best thing for a rookie QB is game reps. Benching him takes away time on the field and at worst, you could show him up if Andy looks good. I’m sure that will be an exquisite confidence boost for Bryce.

You can ruin a QB early and derail his odds of success by putting them in a horrific spot.   All reps aren’t equally nor are situations.

Don’t disagree with your premise, but you’re essentially just saying don’t start him in Seattle because it’s loud. Because that defense sucks. It’s a bottom 5 defense by most metrics. This isn’t the legion of boom anymore. It honestly would’ve probably been a good game for Bryce to get right because their secondary is suspect in every way.

OR maybe he rolled his damn ankle and we don't need him to play through an injury that can get worse because we aren't making a playoff run this year.  Sometimes the simplest answer is the right now.

If they're thinking that way that vibe sure changed fast.

      1st period was a Masterclass on defense by both teams. About time for the Canes let’s keep it up.

      Yes, it tells me they’ve improved significantly from sitting at what, 30-31st in the league on the PP to 11th now.

      I wanted someone to hire him so we got the picks, but I'm also not upset that he'll now be back. I genuinely don't understand why so many fans on here dislike him so much.  No, he's not perfect and made some mistakes this year, especially at the end of the playoff game and going so soft in coverage on the final drive. But considering this place torched him all offseason for us having the "worst defense in NFL history" last year.  Said in the whole pre-draft process how we had to go defense in round 1 because of it and then complained the rest of the offseason that we didn't do enough to improve the defensive roster. How do people say all that about the defense and then complain when he turned that same unit into a pretty respectable defense this year.  They were really the only reason we were in a lot of games for most of the season, as the middle part of the season they really stepped up and were playing like one of the better defenses in the league. I don't see any reason we can't improve even more next year if we spend another offseason focusing on adding pieces on that side of the ball, which we should be able to do with our draft picks and cap space. We had the historically worst defense ever last year and people are upset because we weren't the 85 Bears this year, make it make sense.
