If you're a gambling man, keep Bryce at QB because he will help us tank without even trying to tank. With that no. 1 pick, we go for a QB in the draft and hope he pans out. Quite a gamble. 

Or... 

We can hire outside scouts and evaluators to find good QB prospects in the upcoming draft and pick that diamond in the rough. No more of that S2 cognition test and table manners poo. Then come training camp, hold a genuine QB competition for the starting job, which will result in Bryce being relegated the backup or third stringer on the depth chart. We ride with the new QB come hell and high water while our FO begins a multi-year rebuild to find better pieces to fit the new scheme and playbook. It'll be a grind, but it is what it is. We've dug a deep hole by passing on Stroud for noodle armed midget, and it'll take patience and time to climb out of it.

When I say "numbers" I'm just talking about the macro numbers. That's not a huge concern for me with a rookie or first year starter. But then you dig into the specifics and see that he's at or near the bottom of the league in practically every QB metric and... oh wee mayne.

Doesn’t it feel like we took Rashawn Gaulden at QB? It cost way freaking more, but Gaulden was by far the most unathletic DB at the combine and he was awful and he lasted less than 2 years with us. Young was basically the same. We were just hoping his physical limitations wouldn’t sink him and it looks like they did and his super processor, which Gaulden definitely didn’t have, couldn’t overcome the noodle arm and this eye level:

    • You making fun of or not realizing how important that actually is leads me to believe you don’t have either of those assets and are subconsciously upset about it, or you’ve never been in a position to be a leader and thus you don’t value good leadership which Bryce oozes with. 
    • I said this last night to family. You can look at Bryce as not a “strong and physical” presence and that’s not going to change on you can look at it, that this guy has the type of skillset that sets him up to only get better for the next 5-7 years every year. He’s not going to know less about the game next year than this year. His timing will be better, his pocket presence better (even though the guy works around a pocket amazingly in my opinion), everything is just going to improve every year and I believed he’s already proved the doubters wrong other than nut huggers on here who just want a big strong man to drool over.
    • The Seahawks won an emotional, divisional, overtime rivalry game vs the Rams on a Thursday night (Dec 18).  That gives them 10 days to prepare for the Panthers, but the Christmas holiday fell a week later--I bet they were afforded an extra day for travel-many coming back east.  Following the Panthers, Seattle plays at San Francisco for the division title (in all probability).   The Rams finish the season with games against the Falcons and Cardinals, two likely wins, pushing them to 13-4.  The Niners finish the season with home games against the Bears and Seahawks. Seattle finishes the season with the Panthers on the road and SF in California.   It is easy to see how preparing for the Panthers, during the holiday break and with the Niners waiting for them in SF a week later for (what could be) the NFC West title and #1 Seed in the NFC, could create the perfect trap game scenario.  The Panthers at home are 5-2.   In the past 2 weeks, the Seahawks struggled to beat the Phillip Rivers Colts in Seattle and then pulled off a miraculous, emotional victory at home vs. the Rams.  I am not convinced that they are as good as advertised. Seattle is a TD favorite in Charlotte.  I feel that Carolina by 3 may be more accurate.  While I am still not confident in this team's consistency and it never seems to dominate, it sure feels like a trap game for Seattle to me.  How could they NOT be thinking of San Francisco right now?  They are not used to being in this position (current players) and it is human nature.  Carolina 27, Seattle 24.
