I really don’t want to watch it but I am curious what he said?  

He pointed out the good and bad in Bryce, the offense and the play calling. His voice can be annoying but he's pretty good at breaking down plays and route combinations. He admits he doesn't know the progressions but he does a good job explaining what they should have been given the defensive look. It seems fair and balanced with good and bad.

I guess my real question is, did he say Bryce was salvageable or is he just singularly focused on this one game?

The bottom line is bryce looks vastly better than weeks 1 and 2 and there is no reason to not play him moving forward. There is no downside. If he starts sucking again we are right back where we are right now. But if he can continue to improve (even if he will never be a top 10 QB) we can build the team around him and bide our time till the right QB becomes available.

It's definitely his best game yet, but I wouldn't call it better than an above-average game. He had some nice throws, and a few big drops (the INT was not his fault!). I was particularly impressed by his willingness to throw it deep(er) than usual, and he did a good job avoiding pressure. But his completion percentage was padded by very, very poorly thought out checkdowns, some of which killed drives, and we only put up 23 on the worst defense in the league.

After the Green Bay game, I learned better than to get excited. If he can string together some more games like this, maybe he can be some team's Teddy Bridgewater.

The reason not to play him would be that he’s not on the team anymore because he was wisely traded away when his stock probably won’t be any higher. If he is still on the team next Sunday, then yea might as well keep playing him.

Just 1 game. No predictions made just breaks down the play and the concepts. I found it enlightening and worth the watch if you can get past how annoying the sound of his voice is.

well yea if they get something worthwhile for him than yes I'd pull the trigger but I can't see a team offering something high for him right now. Russini said on her pod we'd likely get more for him in the offseason anyway

    • I think you've nailed what we need right here.  Rodriguez and Thieneman would be my choices, Thieneman in the first and Rodriguez in the second. Let everyone else eat up their picks on the crop of WRs and linemen. Then make a push in free agency for the top center.
    • Vernon Gholston vibes?  had 14 sacks at Ohio State in 2007; 45 games in the NFL:  0 sacks.  
    • I want a high impact player, but a true FS who could qb the secondary might be more effective than we realize.  I don't think Moehrig is that guy (I think he is overpaid, however).  I want a flashy, high impact player, but we could use defensive qbs at ILB  and FS.  By upgrading skill AND adding vision and leadership, could we get better than if we added an edge or OT? I am not sure that I believe this myself, but I try to look at things from all perspectives.  Here is some devil's advocacy stuff: 1. EDGE-We are freaking out about the pressure we put on the qb from the edge position.  However, Jones II and Wonnum missed a total of 22 games. Scourton was a rookie and Princely was a third rounder.  Wharton sucked (not sure if he was used properly--a hybrid who can rush from the 5 tech or 3, etc), and this put more pressure on Scourton and the other edge players.  This year, we get Jones II, Scourton should continue to evolve with Princely.  Perhaps another rookie is not what we need.  Maybe a veteran situational pass rusher.  2. OFFENSIVE TACKLE:  Of course, we need an OT, but the draft is loaded with OTs that can pass block but struggle in run blocking--so a rookie at LT might not be the answer for a team that wants to run first.  What to do?  I am not sure.  I see Nijman returning after testing the market, but who knows? 3.  INSIDE LB:  A huge need, regardless of how you spin it.  However, I see a few free agents who would be solid here, and I see the second round having a few ILBs with starting potential.  I do not see an ILB worth the first round pick unless a freak falls to us. 4.  With veteran defensive backs, a young, intelligent FS could fit in nicely. Intelligence is key--like the way Luke made the front 7 better. "A good, intelligent free safety (FS) acts as the "quarterback of the defense" transforming a unit from good to great by acting as the last line of defense, communicating pre-snap adjustments, and anticipating plays before they happen. By reading the quarterback's eyes and diagnosing offensive schemes, an intelligent FS acts as a "centerfielder" who can neutralize deep threats and mitigate errors made by cornerbacks or linebackers."
