Plummer was bad, but the reality is when bryce looks the same the narrative wil be different. And that's when the jumping hurdles will come out. 

There just isn't an elite talent on this roster to mask how bad it is.

Yeah that is fair. How many excuses were made for Plummer tonight in the game thread? I am going to guess a very low number.

Looking at the situation going into tonight, expectations had to be basement level, and that held true.

So rationally (and after last year) I knew it would be like a visit to the dentist, but it was a soul killing couple of hours all the same.

Okay, that was like watching old people f***, I admit. But overall, I'm quite impressed with the defense. Evero showing once again why he is and should be a sought after HC candidate. He really can make chicken salad out of chicken poo. 

The offense looked as bad as I expected given that we inexplicably rested our starters. And the really sad part is I don't expect much improvement when they are on the field. 

I mean, watching young people f*** ain't exactly must-see TV.

My man didn’t you watch Jack Plummer tonight?!  if Bryce plays and gets hurt Plummer is our starting QB

Luton easily jumped Plummer tonight unless Tepper is hell bent on having horrible qb play behind Bryce for some sort of optics. Dalton has looked fine all week in warm ups, Canales has just been super fuging fragile with the guys that look remotely ready to play in the NFL

Luton or Plummer we’re fuged either way

If Andy isn’t healthy enough to play next Saturday Bryce will not play either it’s too much of a risk

I once again I guarantee it

    • I can't help but think that you are equating physical attributes alone with wins. I don't subscribe to that thought. No one will argue that Young has a strong arm, but he makes up for it in other ways. The real limitation for him is he needs good route runners with great hands. That's why Young was so good at the end of the 24 season. Thielen and Coker were perfect receivers for him and he had his best games with them. Not having them to start the 25 season hurt. Look at the first 10 games in 25 with a rookie receiver and no Coker and then look at the final 7 games with a more experienced rookie and Coker back and there is a telling difference in Young's performance. Prior to week 10, Young had 1 game with a QB rating above 100, 2 games with a rating above 90 and 6 games with a rating below 90. In the last 7 games with Coker back, Young had 3 games with a QB rating above 100, 2 games with a rating above 90 and only 2 games with a rating below 90. The tools a QB has to work with matter more than their arm strength.  To go back to Darnold and Stafford, yes they both have great arm strength but neither had much success with that alone. As I already pointed out, Stafford, even with a canon for an arm, only had 4 winning seasons in his first 12 years. It was only when he went to the right environment that he had true success.
    • I don't love this role for him if I'm being totally honest The pregame show is much more flash than substance and doesn't seem like the right fit for what Luke would bring to the table, and that's his vision of the game. I'd like to see him do something where it more involves him breaking down film and explaining what he's seeing out there, as he sees the game in a way very few ever have.
