I honestly doubt they did. Tepper was sold and at the end of the day that's all that mattered.

It was 100% a Tepper call. You cannot tell me a HC who literally was known for liking bigger QBs during his coaching career looked at Bryce and thought "oh yeah, this is the guy that breaks the mold".

It's not gloating, it's saying "I fuging told you!"

It's anger at the stewards of the organization failing so badly.

It isn’t gloating 

it’s bitterness towards an owner and his staff that has ruined this franchise 

picking young just exemplifies all of it  meaning ‘I don’t care if he is the smallest qb to ever play, I’m Dave Tepper, draft him’

his flaws technically are in film for all to see but a nice dinner with Dave, Nicole and Fitterer was all it took 

nothing like trading away what was left of decent personnel for a 5’ 9” Qb.   Nfl ain’t college  

when legendary coach Bill Parcells was asked about young given the height concerns and the price paid, he said ‘he better walk on water’

i aint seen a whole lot  of walking   I see a lot of, Bryce  threw 2 TDs this game…participation trophies 

I get both of your points, but I’d argue many of the loudest here are gloating about the fact that they wanted Stroud yet the Panthers are floundering because they chose Stroud.

Minshew sucks deal with it.

The running game is what got them back in the game.

Minshew is a good backup/marginal starter type and a third string RB dropped the ball while their best player and starting RB stood on the sidelines. 

There's nothing for me to "deal with".  Someone so obsessed with "stars" should see the reality that the Colts had their star RB on the sidelines on the pivotal play of their season for some baffling reason just to watch their third stringer blow it.

Taylor was the star of the game. That wasn't my point. I simply said Minshew is trash. He threw for 147 yards. Nuff said.

      Does anyone actually think Bryce will actually be good?

      By d-dave · Posted

      The problem that Bryce faces is his lack of prototypical tools.  He's not the tall, strong armed mobile QB that tends to get drafted first overall.  His game is not played in underwear on a practice field.  His best asset are his intangibles.  They aren't sexy like a cannon arm or a fast 40 yard dash. OK, so we took the lesser athlete.  Bryce put up a pretty bad season with a bad team around him.  The coaching staff, for all it's platitudes, sucked.  They made sure Bryce could run a huddle, but didn't help him get better as a player.  Bad choice. Compare that to what other teams did to their Rookies:  they put them in position to succeed with better personnel and better play calling.  Sure, there are physical differences which are going to affect the outcomes, but you can't change it. Am I trying to ride to the defense of Bryce?  Only a little.  He's my favorite team's QB, and I believe in him.  Now, he's got this year to show that he's "the No. 1 for a reason" (Thanks CJ Stroud).  Will he, won't he?  I don't know at all.  That's on the D&D crew to put Bryce is position to play well.  Running the ball is going to make things a lot easier for Bryce.  Does that discount his success if he plays well?  For some of y'all it will.  Some of y'all just don't like Bryce, like he stole you DoorDash or something. Regardless, let's see what happens in 2024.  If Bryce stinks it up, then we're going back to the QB well again.

      we may think we know, but we don't know. we won't know what effect upgrades on the OL, coaching staff, and WR room will have. we don't know what scheme canales is going to put together. we don't know a lot of things.  that's why we play the games...to see what shakes out. plenty of reasons to think Bryce is limited this year...again. Plenty of reasons to see an improvement in his play.

      He did not elevate the players around him, but they de-elevated their QB.  A QB like Bryce needs a system, a strong OL, a Running game, and WRs that can get open.  Call him a manager at best, but so is a point guard.  That is all we should need.  He is smart enough to grow into a very effective player.  I once saw a Coach talking about the OL--i forget who it was Schottenheimer comes to mind--and he said, you can succeed if you have one weak link on the OL.  If you get 2 weak links, success comes 10x harder.  If you get three weak links, your season is over.  Your QB is injured, and you are unemployed (paraphrasing).  I would say that we had 4 weak links (Icky does not get a pass) and a RB who was not good at pass blocking. I am not saying the Bryce is the answer at QB--but I am saying we don't know yet. I know QBs (college) and when the OL sucks, they collapse mentally over time.  That is what we saw--a QB who had never played without the advantage.
