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

      Panthers attempted to trade up with Ravens?

      By ForJimmy · Posted

      Miller being less raw and more pro ready makes sense of why they picked him. With us having a capable starter in Walker the lower floor higher ceiling player makes sense for us as well. I agree with that.

      I'm from Michigan and have had this discussion with my Lions friends, and they all agree with me, they were never going to take Freeling over Miller.  As, yes, you are correct, they could have left Sewell at RT and taken Freeling, but they are in a SB contention window right now. An OL with Freeling at LT and Sewell at RT is not as strong as Sewell at LT and Miller at RT would be for this upcoming season and likely at least next year as well. 5 years it could be looked back upon as a long term "mistake" to take Miller over Freeling, but for a franchise like the Lions, you can't worry about the long term when you have current SB aspirations.  It's all about maximizing their current SB window over the next 1-3 years. And it's not about style, it's about day 1 readiness, and a lot of "experts" aren't even sure if Freeling is ready to play Week 1 yet at the position he's used to, let alone switching to a side he hasn't played before, but a career starting RT is going to be more than ready to fill that role for them Week 1. I'm 100% convinced that if our draft positioning was swapped, we'd have still taken Freeling, they'd have still taken Miller, and both teams would have got the OT that they preferred due to what each team needs right now and what their current realistic aspirations are for the 2026 season. We're in a position where we can let our drafted OT sit and learn for a bit, they needed a week 1 starter, for me that's where this discussion becomes very easy to understand why each team took the player they did.
