In terms of the roster, we are urgently missing a starter caliber QB. 

Get a decent QB first and then evaluate the rest of the positions. You'd be surprised how much a historically bad QB can make the rest of the roster look bad.

 

That was the issue with not just playing Dalton at some point. Some BY dudes wanted Bryce to get "more experience" where in reality we wasted multiple games where we could have been actually evaluating the O-line and skill players with a NFL caliber qb under center. Now everything is a question mark instead of just the rookie qb

Now we are in the off season, I want some 'leaks' from the coaches and FO personnel on what transpired at training camp and during the season. Specifically, I want to know just how bad Bryce really was during camp and the precise reasons why coaches wanted to bench him in favor of Dalton. How did Young's limitations impact play calling and scheme? How much of the play book was thrown out because he couldn't make the throws or play under center?

On a different but twisted note, maybe Tepper will be proven right. Bryce might actually be the piece we need to win "multiple super bowls", because he's on track to tank the franchise so much that we could end up in the position of landing a truly transformative QB who will take us to multiple super bowls. One can dream.

      Can we get to 9-8?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.

      Eight of Bryce Young's nine wins have come off game-winning drives

      I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand.

      Trade Chuba?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
