Broncos, Steelers, Washington - all decisively moving on from QBs who they deemed not good enough.

The Panthers - let's run it back with Young, he needs more time.

And that's why we suck.

Those teams didn’t mortgage their futures

The Broncos definitely did and the Falcons have just backed up a Brinks truck for a 36 year old coming off a torn achilles tendon.

Those teams all had multiple seasons with those QBs. The Panthers have had one. Not quite the same thing.

Unfortunately we picked the guy that fit in the previous draft... with a trade up to #1 overall one pick ahead of a guy who had one of the best rookie seasons ever. Tepper's Panthers in a nutshell.

Yes but come on dude.

None of them after 1 season. Astute observation otherwise.

I’m not saying we shouldn’t.  Broncos and Pittsburg moved on from QBs that they didn’t trade the farm for.  We gave up so much for young that they feel committed to him.

This has Russell Wilson written all over it. He doesn't want people in the stands calling for the Pittsburgh kid every time he throws a pick. I don't even think there is another QB on their roster right now.

Russell Wilson is such an enormous vagina tool

I don't think you understand Kenny Pickett sucks. Once you understand that you will understand why they went with Russ.

Its not like Pitt didn't surround him with talent. The kid had a good WR core. He just wasn't showing any signs of improvement.

 

Bryce will be in a similar situation this year. If he shows no sign of improvement we have to move on and go draft another QB.

Yeah, he sucked, but damn they have to find someone to be the backup.

    • That argument could be used for actual trolls. “If you don’t like it find somewhere else to post” is just silly. Some of us are just letting you know, you are sounding like a broken record on these threads. It’s just some constructive criticism. You don’t have to change your ways. I doubt you will. Just wanted to make sure you were aware. Feel free to deflect and use one of those GIFs again. 
    • It went from he has to jump to he has to bend his hips. That’s changing it. I showed you clips of him throwing deep without jumping which means he doesn’t always have to. I liked and like Stroud better so I’m not really a Bryce defender. Just think you don’t have to make up things when critiquing our QB like he has to jump to throw it deep. There is plenty of ammo there without those exaggerations. Oh yeah the “you don’t know ball” argument. Classic. 
    • I get the rookie QB formula and fully expected to see it implemented. Oh well. For the run game there was no or very little under center stuff until a good ways into the year. At least that is how I am remembering it. And no deep throwing - so stacked boxes which you can say chicken or egg on why.  Hard to run like that.  The QB that people said was so great was pulled for a designated Hail Mary thrower. That’s pretty unusual. And may speak to why we saw few deep balls in some part, along with the OL. To ignore that stuff means you aren’t working with all of the information when you try to mentally model or project what it might be like on the field.  Me, I have a slice of hope that he could maybe be NFL average but getting him to be a plus type of QB is a huge job. It depends on designing the playbook with certain values at the foundation that have to be adhered to first . You have to integrate the other pieces around this one guy’s skill set because he is a real outlier. And he has to learn the under center skill set. Maybe put that Only Positive thread back up people can go there if they don’t want to deal with rightly frustrated fans.
