If he needs a bit of seasoning then we might as well have stayed put and just drafted Will Levis if we are just going to throw away picks. You don't play these games at number one. You either take the best pure passer or you don't make the move.

I get it, but the pick is done - it's a sunk cost. The argument about FO ineptitude may be valid but is a different one. For now the capital is gone, Bryce is on the team, and if sitting him for a bit improves him as a player then that's the best long-term course of action.

Had this been in Charlotte, we'd be going into next week with a W.  Good thing Bryce has an "ankle injury" because this would have be super U-G-L-Y with Seattle's crowd noise.   Dalton is at least keeping the game in reach.

did this game not follow the exact same pattern as the other 2? 

Close at half.  Then they pull away.  All 3 games have been pretty similar 

people are going to inflate the passing yards because of how bad Seattle is on D is act like something changed.  Dalton still just at 50 something completion.

Yup, the defense was supposed to keep us in ball games this year.  So far, so NOT good.  Our secondary is getting torched.  Yes, the sacks have been nice, but a stop every once in a while actually accomplishes more.

    • Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
    • Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.      
    • I think people aren’t patient enough with Young. It can take a few years for a QB to develop. Look at Darnold, Baker and most recently Daniel Jones.   he hasn’t been able to put up big passing numbers either cause of how much we run the ball. You can tell our coaching staff still hasn’t took the training wheels off Bryce and let him go all out. We’ve had some pretty bad receivers as well. We finally got a true number one last year and look how much Bryce improved. Still we didn’t really have any depth behind TMac. Coker was hurt for a lot of the year and XL was our #2. How many big plays or TDs has XL dropped? I think this year can be the year we see Bryce able to hit his stride. If not then we can start looking for another qb but I just ask people to be patient.
