I’m here to admit it. Bryce Young is a bust. It’s not even a debate. He doesn’t have it at this level. Now the sad part….

Because we invested so much in a guy that isn’t going to be THE guy, we’re probably 5-10 years away from having a winning football team again. 

Here’s another thing…it also means our next coach most likely won’t be successful. So in theory, we’re probably looking at a lame duck coach as soon as he signs the papers. 

Buckle up folks, it’s going to be a long journey. The last time I felt like this was when we brought in Teddy Bridgewater.

I said not drafting Justin Fields set this franchise back 10 years. I wasn’t wrong. 

I'm right there with you. I tried to have faith in Bryce. And honestly if he turned it around next year I would not be surprised. But I'm not banking on it.

Laughable. No NFL team is 5-10 years away from competing in this day and age. That's not to say it isn't possible we continue to suck for the next decade but there's no reason why we HAVE to.

If Bryce isn't the answer then we draft another QB next year. Or give Bryce another year and if he doesn't work out we go QB in 2026. That's how it works.

It wasn't that long ago that the Texans were viewed as a lost cause. Then they drafted Stroud. Same with the Bengals pre-Burrow.

No team in the NFL is more than 2 years out of contention theses days with a little luck and the right moves.

Again, not saying we'll have any luck or make any right moves, but missing on a top-5 QB is no longer a 5+ year death sentence in this league.

    • Rico walking is no big deal. I'll take a healthy 2024 Hubbard over Rico any time and losing Mays is, again, no a big deal.  Young is signed for what, $35M for the next two years? Say he wants $50M but the FO doesn't. If they put the franchise tag on him, that would be around $55? So basically they are getting Young for the next 3 years for an average of $30M per year. Putting the franchise tag on him wouldn't be my first choice but it gives them an option that wouldn't be locking him into a long term, $50M contract. I'm not suggestion they do that. Just that the option will be there should they get to that point. Hunt is on a 5 year deal which is done in 28 so he either restructures or is gone anyway. Moton will be 35 by then and will either be gone or have diminished playing time. Neither of those players has anything to do with getting Young a contract. The O line is way overpaid anyway. Hopefully by the time they are gone, Freeling and Hecht will be developed and Ickey will be healthy. Young was benched his second year and only got his job back because Dalton was injured. Not sure how you can call that entitled. And I would NOT say putting a rookie QB on a team with no receivers, tight ends or O lineman and then being put with a coach who never wanted you and is fired mid season, is a definition of luck. As far as competition, no team is going to bring in competition for a QB picked first overall - especially given the capital that was given up to get him.  
    • With apologies to Lady Cowboy fan, any day we can screw over the Cowboys is a GOOD day…
