Some of y'all badly need to watch some other games. Watch other QBs throw lasers. Watch them drop dimes while being pressured. Watch backup QBs look way better than Bryce across the league.

It's all out there.

Did y'all see Tommy DeVito last night? Undrafted rookie free agent Tommy DeVito? Did you see how much better he looks than Bryce even though the overall offensive talent is poor, the OL is terrible, and their best offensive player had a critical late turnover?

I mean.... it's all right there to see.

I just wonder when it hit them. Did they know when they drafted him but knew that he was gonna be Tepper's pick anyway so better get onboard? Was it during rookie mini camp? Training camp? I think they knew by preseason and that's why they played him so little. They put up a good front of being confident but they hid that kid in preseason like a candy wrapper under a kid's bed. They knew they'd be in trouble as soon as the NFL got tape on this guy.

Absolutely by training camp. They hid him in the preseason. 
 

like I said, rewatch the Atlanta game or just the quick refresher on his throws. Took Atlanta about a quarter to figure him out.

I mean it must have been 5 minutes into Jets joint practice that the coaching staff was probably like ah poo he's a bust

Bryce was missing receivers all over the place downfield. 😂

The ability some of y'all have to continually invent new excuses is just wild to watch. I honestly feel secondhand embarrassment watching it 

I have to agree with this, what I saw was receivers were actually open, 2 or 3 steps in front of their defenders and Bryce was just missing them.  I want to see what some of you are seeing but he missed a lot of NFL open receivers Sunday.

For NYG and TEN, both of their lines have been panned beyond belief this year and are arguably worse than ours.  What both rooks did last night was beyond impressive.  Had heavy pressure rushing in their face in the closing minutes.  

And something to not forget, both of those teams have some of the better coaches who teach aggressive, tough, & inspired football.  Daboll and Vrabel are great IMO.  Down year overall, but they're damn good coaches.

Shows how "bad" teams can still win.  Which we can't figure out even when the opponents are virtually gifting us the game.

For the trade up we did, it should have been someone ready to come in, kick a** and take names. Instead we have a borderline practice squad player who will never be able to throw to the sideline or middle of the field from under center comfortably. 

"Um, know you, I need to step up you know, Um I have to get better, I didnt execute or do enough, so its um, you know its on me, yeah, you know its um, its um, you know I never you know I am a competitor and um, ultimately close isnt good enough and its um you know"

That's what we (or at least Tepper) thought we were getting. Bryce was gonna come in and dice the league up like a point guard with his super processing ability. We just overlooked the unfortunate reality that you have to do it with your physical talent on an NFL field, not an XBox controller like he was using on the S2 test.

Tepper gonna have some kid who won a big Madden tournament in for a tryout next year. Hell, he might be our next head coach. 😂

Please, anybody, tell me what specific physical characteristics and attributes this man possesses that indicate a long and successful NFL career. 

There is nothing there. Tep again wanted to show the NFL how smart he was by going with the *selectively* analytics based approach on the unconventional candidate and he got his pants pulled down, again… and is being laughed at, again. I bet if his lack of physical ability were allowed in to his wizardry calculation, then it would have been obvious. 

I’m still so incredulous as to how this all went down. The pick was so obvious and we gave up so much. Analysis paralysis at its finest. When in doubt, doing nothing or going safe are almost always the best 2 options. 

This was ‘I’ll show em’’ ego trip at it’s finest.

Come on. He CAN make the throws. He just isn't. No excuse on a few of them. Gotta give your receiver a chance to make a play.

I think his confidence is shot. He needs a restart to get out of his head. 

And honestly these receivers are really, really bad.

 

In all honesty, those receivers aren't giving him much help. Mingo stinks as bad as Bryce right now. Maybe they will both get better but wow, they really stink up the joint at the moment.

And Chark... that was a shart of a pick up by the team, too.

Everyone has a different take on this but mine is essentially Bryce has been absolutely rattled and lost it. He needs to sit the rest of the season and spend all offseason working on his footwork while the FO does their job and fixes the damn offensive weapons issue. 
 

It doesn’t matter how different the talent level is at Alabama, you don’t lose the ability to hit a wide open WR with nobody 10 yards around him all of a sudden. He needs to sit 

How you holding up bud?

FYI if you sit him at any point this season you have waved the white flag and admitted he is basically a bust. Dalton starting and winning would seal it.

For better or worse Bryce will be finishing the season and he will get at least half the season next year to show any inkling of play worthy of a top overall pick.

There's no delaying the inevitable. Buckle in and prepare for more chaos.

It looks like Quinn Ewers might go back to school for one more year. Tank 2024 and draft Ewers in 2025. Seriously, he’s going to be a very good NFL QB.

I don't think it's going to be a choice to tank, we just will if we keep running Young out there.

They actually went 'safe'.

Young was the consensus #1 QB in the media. He clearly wasn't if you watched tape and projected him into the NFL - but very few talking heads were brave enough to voice that pre-Draft.

    • You kinda gloss over this, but this is really at the crux of this whole argument....which Flacco are we talking here?  You bring up that he played with 3 different teams but ignore the fact that his performance varied quite a bit from team to team. 2024 Colts: 65.3% completion, 12 TDs, 7 INTs, 220.1 YPG, 7.1 Y/A, 90.5 rating 2025 Browns: 58.1% completion, 2 TDs, 6 INTs, 203.8 YPG, 5.1 Y/A, 60.3 rating 2025 Bengals: 63.4% completion, 12 TDs, 3 INTs, 290.6 YPG, 6.8 Y/A, 96.2 rating 2025 Flacco (Browns + Bengals): 61.1% completion, 14 TDs, 9 INTs, 252.0 YPG, 6.1 Y/A, 80.8 rating vs. 2025 Bryce: 62.7% completion, 14 TDs, 7 INTs, 196.2 YPG, 6.2 Y/A, 86.0 rating I bolded the comparison that I think objectively makes the most sense...just simply comparing the two QBs for the entire season.  Otherwise you'd be cherry-picking Flacco's time with the Bengals and ignoring his earlier stint with the Browns, which sounds an awful lot like people cherry-picking Bryce's stats in the second half of last season. So again, which Flacco?  Basically the only thing consistent with Flacco across each of these teams was his W/L records: 2-4, 1-3, and 1-4 respectively.  I'd say if we're comparing each version of him to Bryce this year: Colts Flacco > 2025 Bryce, Browns Flacco <<< 2025 Bryce, Bengals Flacco >> 2025 Bryce, and 2025 Flacco < 2025 Bryce - Flacco this year only beats out Bryce on YPG but in part because he throws significantly more passes (almost 60 YPG more than Bryce, despite a lower Y/A which is pretty telling) .  Flacco is maybe the most apt case study about how important a QB's circumstances are to his success.  He was easily a bottom 3 QB in Cleveland and arguably top 10-15 in Cincinnati...and we're talking about the same player from the same season.  All that happened was taking him from one team and plopping him onto another team; nothing inherently changed about him as a QB.  Funny enough I think that's all that one dude on here was trying to say when he made that long poorly-received post after having an epiphany working for PFF behind the scenes or w/e.  That it's largely short-sighted to just try to evaluate QBs in a vacuum when there are so many variables at play that ultimately decide whether a QB is successful or not.   I think Bryce has been mediocre at best this season and I'm ready to move on regardless of how he ends this season - I'm highly skeptical a strong end to the season will carry over into next year considering how last year ended and this year began.  I would certainly agree that he's a bottom-third QB this year.  I just don't understand you scoffing indignantly at anyone holding the opinion that Bryce has had a better season than Flacco...I can only assume it's recency bias.  Or maybe you know the stats don't support you, which is why you're conjuring up the god-forsaken arbitrary "eyeball test" which is the kinda thing people in here were saying about Fields for years, pinky promising that he really truly was a franchise QB despite his awful stats.  Perhaps it's called the eyeball test because I roll my eyes anytime I hear someone bring it up seriously as an argument.
    • CMC said he expected to play his career here.  He didn't think he would be traded.  Carolina decided they wanted to trade him.  He picked here he wanted to go.   But we dumped him.  For largely peanuts.   But we dumped DJ Moore and he never had a blood and guts game.   So it's never a guarantee. 
    • I have many people telling me CMC was blindsided and heartbroken by the trade, but that's not how I remember everything going down.  49ers are pretty wounded right now on defense so if our offense can sustain drives and score, that'd be the difference maker. Their offense? I'm not scared of CMC.
