Does Bryce deserve another start?

It's a throw away year so might as well start him. People keep saying "his trade value before the deadline" but from what I was told by huddle armchair experts is he can't be traded this year due to the cap hit so no reason even hoping to trade him by the deadline and best case scenario is trade him by the off-season

Deserve? Tough word. Nobody "deserves" anything in the NFL.

Bryce still showed the same flaws he's shown his entire career. His physical limitations are what they are. The two point conversion, he drifted back and to the right causing the sack because he's 9 yards behind where the pocket should be. 

The big 3rd down conversion over the middle to XL was a duck with no zip on it. The 3rd down play XL got hurt on was late and had no zip. Gave the defender time to get him behind the line of scrimmage. 

That said I will credit him for making the deep throws today. That pass off David Moore was about as perfect as perfect can be, as was the sideline strike to XL. They ended up being 0-2 with a pick in the stat book but those were winning plays right there. More of that. Good things happen when we push the ball deep. It's no coincidence that the running game picked up in the 2nd half when we started pushing the ball.

The game as a whole was a C+ for him. 

We win this one going away with Andy imo and Dalton is still going to give us a far better look at evaluating our receivers because of his arm talent but I think if the team isn't in danger of revolting like they were week 2, you put Bryce out there in Germany.

I still don’t think he’s the answer but this was the first time in a while that my son and I enjoyed watching the game.

Amazingly, I also thought that had we lost, I wouldn’t have blamed Young at all. He should have had another TD that Moore when Moore dropped a perfect ball and XL letting the CB steal the ball for an interception is inexcusable.

I’d let him start again because I thought he actually played well and the Giants are on NO’s level. I still don’t think Young can get this team to a playoff level but sucky teams without CBs, he looked decent. Still need a replacement at QB.

He played better today than he has in a long time, maybe ever. He still has issues of running into pressure and at times refuses to push the ball downfield but at least he showed accuracy today that hasn't been there earlier this year 

I think he got lucky with a couple of throws. It's like the lottery, you can't win if you don't play. I saw it work for Russell Wilson - due to his receivers, mostly. 

He needed to go downfield his first game in the league. And finally he threw caution to the wind and did it. I don't think that I think he can thrive doing that but it is the only hope there is. A winning team, week in week out, has to have the real threat of a big play downfield.

    • 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)
