What if, and hear me out here, Bryce Young is not actually some cerebral genius QB

I'll say this unequivocally; I do not believe that you can call Bryce Young a bust right now and I don't think we should treat him as such. It's way too soon to know what he is regardless.

With that said...

I do think it's going to be necessary next year to sign a backup who can not only mentor him but also compete with him if his issues continue.

Mind you, some of those issues may not be all his fault. The David Carr treatment that he's receiving this season could certainly have an effect.

Either way though, I think that's something you have to factor into the coming offseason's personnel strategy.

we did sign someone that can compete with him and his name is andy dalton, I seriously doubt they will sign anyone else in the offseason.  Dalton is here for another year

Dalton isn't starter material anymore, and definitely not a long-term starter.

We need to look for somebody that's got that kind of potential, even if it's via the draft rather than free agency.

Dalton is guaranteed here next season because of his contract.  

I think there are few guarantees this point. The Teppers will be the owners next year and we don't have our #1 pick. 

There are no contracts on the books that couldn't be tossed and eaten in dead cap. 'Is that smart' is a whole other conversation and it's one I don't even want to have personally. We also have no idea who will still be here next year and who won't making these decisions in the fallout of this years massive failures.

    • All I know is that it won't be boring. A win or two along the way and this team is suddenly in the mix throughout the season. It has been a long, long time we could say that at Thanksgiving. And that late bye of ours could give us a mighty leg up. If we can make it to it.
    • True, 12 man money league here….he is still sitting out there.  Projected to have a worse fantasy day than Davis Mills, Tyrod Taylor, Mason Rudolph that join him on the waiver wire 
    • Yes to some degree, but the whole point of the video was that that applies to almost all QBs coming out of college. It’s not a Bryce specific problem. And those retreads you’re talking about may not have learned how to take those snaps from center yet either. They’re all growing/going through that process.    Bryce absolutely was part of the problem his rookie year (and continues to be part of the problem) but Frank Reich and company committed coaching malpractice. It truly was a lost year.    So really the question now is do you give him more time to learn or do you think there’s a better option out there. Maybe there is a retread that would be better for us, and maybe there’s a unicorn college QB that won’t have the same issues. But maybe there’s not.  I have no problem having Bryce on the roster next year or the following on his 5th year option if we don’t think there’s a better alternative. Hopefully bring in some competition of course, but give it a bit more time to see if he can improve.
