Does Bryce deserve another start?

Going to ignore the stupid thread that proclaims Bryce the future.

Just like I indicated last week, he took a step in the right direction and continues to build confidence. He still is inconsistent and the offense stalls at times but today he showed he can operate the offense and make some tough throws under pressure. 

Canales was not ready to proclaim him the starter next week but I think you have to keep him in and have him build on his last two games.  What say you?

One could say this thread is stupid also considering you're saying he took a step in the right direction against the worst defense in the league

The schedule gets brutal after the bye, and a possible loss in another country to the giants is not gonna help things. We will so what kind of gymnastics we hear when the losses start piling up again. 

Very interesting to see how this season finishes out. I think at some point you have to raise the expectations to know how to approach next season. Like the 150 pass yds 1 TD games is not gonna cut it. Gotta shoot for more than that.

I don’t think one good outing against the hapless Saints is enough to determine whether or not Bryce Young has improved.  I remember Mike Dick once said that the New Orleans Saints were the elixir of the National Football League.  And he is not wrong on this. I’ve seen many of Saints game where the Saints are so horrible. They make a poor team look like they are super.
 

Between Andy Dalton and Bryce Young, I don’t think there’s much choice. I don’t think it would hurt at this point to play him on a few more games against better opponents.

This is obvious anywhere but the huddle. You play the dude the whole season. Dalton is A 37 YEAR OLD FREE AGENT.

So by your logic regarding Dalton the #1 overall pick from last year should be unequivocally separating himself significantly from the 37 year old washed up QB in question yes?

What do the numbers say though?

2024:

Dalton 160 pass attempts 66.3 completion % 989 yards 7 touchdowns 6 interceptions 6.2 yards per attempt

Young 128 pass attempts 60.2 completion % 694 yards 3 touchdowns 6 interceptions 5.4 yards per attempt

Not seeing separation there. Both look like backups at best.

Frankw that's not what he's saying. Dalton has the best body of work so far this season. No one denies that. But you have a 37 years old QB who will be a FA next season that is trending down, and a 23 years old on a rookie contract trending upwards. You go with the young guy if possible. You find reasons to go with the young guy until he makes you go the other direction.

    • With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.
    • Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.
    • Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
