One major difference between Tua and Bryce (outside of 3 inches in height and 30lbs in weight) is that Tua has a good ish deep ball to scare defenses. Bryce has never had a good deep ball, not even in college. 
 

Tua also has a stacked offense, not that different from Purdy to be honest. And Miami still only beat one team with a winning record this year.

Will Bryce improve next year? Yes I believe so, I mean he can’t get worse. But will he improve enough to be a high end starter for us? I don’t see it.

I really believe Bryce's ceiling is 12-15 best QB in the league.  His lack of physical traits will stop him from being a total game changer, but I think with good coaching he can be a consistent game manager.

I am hopeful, but not a believer. Would love to see would he could do with a decent team around him. I hope it would be much better. I don't believe it

 

I AM bothered that people use his performances as a way to bash him. Grown *** men bashing a young adult?

 

It's not his fault he was drafted first nor that we did such a stupid trade. What was he supposed to do, say "oh don't draft me and pay me millions. Please don't!"

For me, it more the way they are handled and “produced” like a 90s boy band. All the hype to get them there by their producers, then they bomb or are realized for the talentless hacks they are. They get paid a lot of money for defrauding the public and deserve to be roasted.

Doesn't matter if I believe in him or not (leaning towards him not being the long-term answer), he needs a team built around him. Both for his sake, or the sake of the QB we'll bring in in '25 if he has another season like this one. 

O-line and WRs need a complete revamp. Need to convince Evero to stay with a bag as well so that the defrense doesn't fall off and draft some CB help, as our's seem to be made of glass.

Don't believe the guy is franchise material. I hope I am wrong. How much he can improve with new blood around, is uncertain.

His athletic ability, arm strength, and size is a situation that cannot be ignored.

Can't be ignored nor improved.

There is one saving grace that he is still only 22. He's literally still growing. Don't get me wrong I don't have any illusions that he'll get more than an inch taller, but he's still filling out. There is one hope, and I was just talking about it this morning, that if he commits himself to weight gain and puts on 30 pounds of mass in the off-season, he could get stronger.  Make him marginally harder to tackle, put more power behind his throws. It's a faint hope, but for next season it's all we got.

Oh dude, he was definitely at the very bottom. He was worse than 32. Backups performed better than he did. 

Major strides for him at this point would be not being the fuging worst QB in all of the NFL. He is not even a backup level QB at this point. 

I was trying to gloss it over but you are exactly right, he was the worst. I also agree in that I would not want him for a backup. Dalton is a good backup type, Bryce at this point may not even be considered a practice squad developmental guy.

Eh, fully done growing? No, but you don't see dude's blow up in the NFL...that's in college.  I just don't see the alpha in him to commit to such an endeavor.  Bryce says he's dealt with this stigma of being small his entire life.  If true, where was the drive to hit the weights and supplements in high school and college when they could have actually benefited him the most?  He's always has relied on the mental side of the game.  Unfortunately in the NFL you have to smart and an athletic specimen.

With actual WR talent around Bryce, he'll be fine. I believe

[NJPanthers89]

Bryce's peak would be current Tua, but Tua is 6'1 (215lb), not 5'10 (barely 200lbs).  Tua needs an all star team around him offensively and all star play caller to be successful.  Basically Bryce doesn't have good odds of being a success here at all.

I need the video/gif of Brees leaping over piles.  He may could run a sneak, but he didn't have a UFL talent offensive line like Bryce had all season either.

Tyris isn’t a rookie either and been a starter for multiple teams.. 

Why is this so hard for you??

You missed my point, but that's ok.

So the change in coaching staff doesn’t matter right??

The oline being healthy and more consistent doesn’t matter..

Adding vets like The TE from Dallas and Wr from LA didn’t matter..

Nah it was just 1 player right??

Hey look, you missed my point again.
