Said he is going to be alright and isn’t a talker. Compares him to Watson who “could play on Sunday” despite not being a talker. 

Except Bryce has yet to show he can play on Sundays like Watson did his rookie year.

Yeah Sam wasn't a big talker either and we saw how that went. At least he could make a big play occasionally 

There are plenty of great QBs who don’t talk trash and plenty of great ones that do. It doesn’t really matter as long as they can play on Sunday. That’s basically what Clowney said.

I don't think there is disagreement on this board that Bryce must drastically improve.  We all saw the train wreck last season, and the only disagreement is who should receive what percent of the blame and how effectively were those needs addressed. Bryce sucked in 2024 and Canales will attempt to fix him.  We do not have Alzheimer's.  We remember 2023.  We get it.  I also know that he is short, soft-spoken, and has an average arm at best.  I don't expect that to change.  Most QBs fail.  Most first round QBs fail.  Your remarkable hindsight is not needed in June.  We got the picture.  We know where we stand. 

This. Well said and spot on!

The leadership angle is awkward. Number one he is not a loud personality. And you need performance to back up talk because leadership is not don’t do as I do, do as I say. You have to do your job right.

If he can get it together on the field they will listen to him, it has to be lead by your actions first.

Hmm, doesn't sound super impressed by BY

 

I’ve been a wait and see optimist with Bryce….but this worries me a lot. You have to be able to command a team as a QB. It’s one of the most underrated qualities of the position. How many quiet qbs like that have you seen really be successful or lead a team to long term success? Cam has already mentioned this about Bryce and it does not seem like things have changed much since last season on him being more vocal.

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
