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.

    • In that case its in his best interest to fully recover. 
    • Looks like we're fifth in running plays/play action plays when in the lead and about 10th in the league when we fall behind.  The biggest thing I take from this is not that we drop off like that, because every team does, but that we drop off so much. A lot of the best teams don't  drop off much, depending on the game situation, preferring to stick to their game plan through out. Some of those are very good teams. Baltimore barely deviates from their run/action heavy plan. At the other end, KC also barely deviates, but they have one of the least run oriented attacks in the league by these stats. On the other side, there are teams that make even bigger shifts (based on last year's performance) and they are teams that for various reasons found themselves in desperation attempts. Dallas, Atlanta, the Browns, Bucs and Bengals were all literally throwing out their game plans and trying to either lean on their top end QB or were just frantically trying to create something downfield. Considering the years of us completely abandoning the run (oh those Matt Rhule days), maybe we are starting to stabilize. Don't even get me started on the Reich days...  
    • I am kindof in the camp that its not an addiction for him just a dumb ass kid who didnt think he would get caught.  I think the "addiction" angle was the story they went with in hopes of not being banned for life   But I doubt we show interest as I think he is going to be pricey (Draft capital wise)
