It’s beyond time to bench Bryce.

If he's not ready it's because he's never gonna be ready. It's not like he was some raw talent upside pick. His draft value was based on being a plug and play super processor while the knock on him was that he might already be at his physical ceiling based on his talent.

I just don't understand how folks can see it elsewhere, but ignore it at Bama. Guys like Stetson Bennett and Jake Fromm are seen for what they are - really good college QBs who probably won't translate to the NFL and are largely products of the surrounding talent and systems. Yet with Bryce folks convinced themselves that this 5'10" noodle arm was making chicken salad out of chicken poo at Alabama like he was playing at ECU or something. GTFO of here. This dude fooled everyone.

Well, he didn't fool me. I took a lot of heat last off-season for warning that this guy has marginal NFL physical talent.

You either have "IT" and its evident or you don't and its evident....No 5'10 QB in the NFL has been worth a damn....hows that for analytics....but mister money ball is going to try and prove it different... Dipper doesn't even live by the crap he spews...

Wilson was great when things clicked, Flutie had some good years. Tarkenton. Flutie and Kyler and perhaps Wilson are the only legit 5’10’s ever.

Wilson is actually 5'11...but the other 2 have had less than mediocre careers in the win column.  2 in the last 50 years...analytics man.

Flutie got drafted into a similar situation, fizzled out on the NFL’s worst team, destroyed the CFL and then took the Bills to the playoffs but by then he was old and only had a few good years left in him. 
Kyler isn’t good, but not horrible. 

analytics say Bryce will turn out ok, just not maybe as a Panther

I would. Hell, at least Jameis would let it rip. It'd be something to watch. Beats this boring poo.

Winston could at least randomly throw for 400 yards or have like a 5 TD afternoon.  Even he can offer some false hope.  It’s basically what has kept him employed.  That you might catch that random good day if he was ever called upon.

No way they'll bench Young. The only remote hope they have left  is Bryce was dealt a horrible hand and that's his only problem. What If Dalton started and won some games. Then he he threw for 250 plus yards and all of the sudden some of the recievers weren't so bad and they put 30 on the board. It would tell everyone what most already know. Tepper would rather lose the rest of the games this year than face those facts.

I think Dalton will start the last two games if there’s no improvement. Bruce had plenty of time to throw today and still had a below average day by his already dreadful standards

      Monday practice tweets

      I know it's only been training camp and one preseason game, but I think T-Mac has already shown his floor to be exactly what I said about him in the pre-draft process. That his floor if he never improves his game, is as one of the best #2 WRs in the NFL, if not even still a low end #1 (i.e. a 25th-ish best WR in the league). I think it's safe to say he's already established himself as our #1, and there are only a small handful of teams in the league where I don't think he'd be their starting #2 WR in Week 1. Bengals (Higgins), Dolphins (Waddle), Eagles (Smith), Bucs (Godwin if healthy), Rams (Adams) are really the only teams where I think he'd be the #3 as a rookie in Week 1.  A few others like the Lions (Williams), Bears (Odunze), Seahawks (Kupp), Commanders (Deebo), where he'd be the 2b to start the season, just because they're vets and/or already have a year or two of experience with their team/QB. And even having said that, I think by year 2, he's better than every one of those players (And no, I'm not saying he's already going to be better than a prime version of Adams, just whatever he'll be at 33 next year), and same goes for Kupp, but that's more because it seems like his body might be quitting on him in a way that hasn't happened to Adams (yet).

      Well to be fair, Horn not practicing right now to let his stitches heal up from a car accident isn't something that should be concerning.  Sure, you don't want him missing practice leading into the season, but it's one that once healed, won't have lingering affects or fear of re-injuring it, it was just bad luck.

      Austin named starting center

      By UnluckyforSome · Posted

      Quality backups are absolutely important. This franchise has been plagued with depth problems. That said, there is a little bit of dismay that Mays can't beat out a 1-legged man, and all the talk going into the off-season was how BC would certainly be gone since he had position versatility.  In the end, it doesn't matter too awfully much, as I would be shocked to no end if Corbett makes it through the season. We know what we have in reserve, and that should surely be better than trying to sign random fat guys mid season to try and take over.
