The Vikings are good. I know the Colts are mediocre and trending the wrong direction but still when your QB has three turnovers, you have a fumble returned for a TD against you, and your kicker misses two FGs your odds of winning in the NFL have to be damn near zero and they still won comfortably. 

Going up against 39 year old Joe Flacco helps substantially.

It does. But still, when you can overcome that combination of negative plays and still win comfortably in the NFL that's pretty damn impressive.

Imagine Darnold or Baker at qb for us yesterday. Woulda doubled the QB stat line with that protection and yac available

It was a miserable game given they just benched their starter.  Got to think AR gives them at least the same shot to win.

At least AR can run. I do think he would've really struggled against that Vikings D though. They probably disguise coverages and blitzes as good or better than anyone else in the league. Flores may have flopped as a HC but he's a helluva DC.

You can't pay JAGs like franchise QBs. You can build a roster around a JAG on a rookie contract but if that same guy has a franchise QB cap hit you're cooked.

INB4 Brock Purdy $65 mil contract.

Yeah, I am curious to see which of these 2024 QB contracts end up netting any SB rings.

Most likely not. AR just does not see the field well at all. He is best suited to sitting for a while, learning and watching.

He was yawning during their game yesterday. He didn't even look out at the field as far as I could tell. He may be done in Indy and the nfl altogether if he keeps that up.

None. 

We will see. That group does still have Goff and he appears to have a team set up for him to succeed. I don't personally believe he is a guy that can elevate the team around him and he has a history of coming up short in crunch time.

Yeah, he really does have some JaMarcus Russell vibes. You really wonder if he loves the game or just happens to be a freak physical specimen that can play QB.

He could be the type that thinks he's arrived now that he was drafted and can live off his talent alone. Money changes people and especially young people. You cannot predict that before you draft them.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By strato · Posted

      Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying.

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.

      Moton Meets the Press

      Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.
