Can We Not Over React to This One Game??

Perhaps I'm just dumb but I don't see one Bryce stand. I see some people saying he played better than usual which is true but still doesn't cut it long term and he would have to step it up further to be the guy moving forward. I think where you are mistaken is where people are saying he deserves some more games to see what he can do. I can go along with that idea because it's a throw away season where we have to see what we have form many players. We invested way too much to get Bryce so here in the second half of the season we might as well give him his last go at it and see if he can improve week by week while showing he has the mindset and aggressive downfield attack he needs to have if he wants to start next season. Will be be able to? I seriously doubt it but we might as well with nothing to lose this season and if he underperforms as I believe he will then trade him for whatever we can in the off-season and move on.

The majority of huddlers by and large are fair and objective, even the people that want Bryce out. I don’t see anyone that ‘hates’ Bryce.

So fair is fair. Objective. 

Bryce has been canned ass all season. Saints are terrible, but we are terrible-er. 

Yesterday he played a clean game. The third and long pickup to XL was the best throw I’ve seen him throw. He looked like he wanted to play. He walked the sidelines and engaged teammates. His decision making was improved. 

His lack of arm strength was apparent on a few throws yesterday, some passes should have been picked. All QBs have those, so ok. His long throws were better but need more oomph. 

I think Andy has been very good for him. 

Bryce is still a galaxy away from what we need, but yesterday was a big improvement.

Man I feel like objectively Bryce is developing. QB's typically do not develop overnight. The ones that do are freaks. I think it's also fair to say that Bryce's ceiling is a lot lower than we thought it was.  Yesterday was one of his better games. His two best throws were not completed, but some of his poor throws got good results too. 

The saints not even considering throwing it to Jaycee's side of the field was freaking awesome. Not sure even Josh Norman ever got that treatment. 

Coker and XL will be part of the long term solution here. We have some solid young pieces. 

Must get a pass rush somehow. That is a dire circumstance at the moment.

Even before the draft, BY was supposed to have the highest floor but had the lowest ceiling of the top 3. Just turned out that Stroud's floor was higher than Young's ceiling from the start.

    • Depends, if we would have hired Wilkes and kept darnold were probably be right about where we are now. An average team fighting for a winning record and nfcs crown
    • And once again I showed you it’s been pretty even. We spent 2nd and 3rd rounders this past draft on edge rushers. No one’s going to sit here and do the math on a draft value chart etc. the only reason I even entertained this was because you said we’ve spent nothing on defense when that simply isn’t true. It also didn’t help we traded our ONLY WR worth a damn to trade up for Bryce soo… And this is kind of the issue with the anti Bryce crowd. This crowd tends to blame him for the trade up. I was team Stroud. Had the panthers not taken Young the only other QB they were going to take was Richardson. So your issue should be with Tepper, Morgan, Fitterer not Bryce.  Bryce is who he is and it was pretty obvious who he was during the draft process. Bryce is slowly developing into that guy most thought he’d be. Give him a WR like Jamo and this offense as a whole would improve greatly.  Anyone thinking he was the next Pat Mahomes or Josh Allen is clearly slow. Bryce was always going to need pieces around him much like EVERY other QB Burrow has Chase and Higgins and they’ve done nothing. After losing in AFC Championship in 2022, Burrow is 17-15. QB’s need a team around them It’s why a Jalen Hurts led Eagles team dismantled a Pat Mahomes led KC team in the SB Imo the QB’s doing the most with the least up until this year have been Josh Allen and Lamar Jackson  This year it’s Drake Maye and Josh Allen  Outside of the 3-5 elite type QB’s I’m not really sure what people expect here. Is Bryce ever going to be in that elite category? Nope. Should we punt on Bryce and keep swinging? I don’t think so. Should we keep swinging while hanging onto Bryce? Yeah but I don’t know what that looks like This team as a whole isn’t very good. Offense and defense and that’s the simple truth  
    • I didn't move the goal posts. But anyone who follows football who wants to engage in a rational discussion can't argue that 10 7th round picks are equal to 10 1st rounders in value. The argument has always been we haven't spent as much on defense has we have on offense. Draft picks have value just like salary. We have not spent the same amount of draft pick salary cap on defense that we have on offense since drafting Bryce. It's not even close. Just the 2 1sts we used on Bryce, 2 overall 1sts have a value of 6000. That doesn’t even factor in DJ Moore or the 2 2nds. Bryce cost more than everything we've spent on defense in 6 damn years.
