Joe Person: Andy Dalton will 'get another crack' as starting QB

Good.

Hes simply leaving too many plays out on the field, and I’m sure Canales is seeing that on film. Now, what is likely to happen is the chiefs are going to dog walk us, calming everyone down. That’s when you go ahead and close the door on this chapter, and go back to Dalton to finish out the season.

Honestly, bringing Bryce along by playing him, then sitting him and letting him watch with more educated eyes and a different perspective isn't the worst method of getting him worked out. And sending Andy in to perform and then do an after action discussion after each series with Bryce isn't bad either.

It gives a guy a chance to get experience, digest it and make use of it.

Still, while we are seeing some growth in Bryce, he's still got a long way to go to convince at least me that he's able to overcome his early work and his physical shortcomings. Doesn't mean he can't overcome them and be something special, but there's still a mountain to climb.

He's being given a shot and be given the tutoring. The rest is up to him and fate.

Rumors I've read, and just watching Young and the  play calling, seems to indicate that Canales does not believe in Young

…at all

..maybe he was  told by  owner, gm, etc that the franchise is moving  on

…Or maybe Canales sees the limited plays calls with young under  center

i mean, it is all conjecture 

…but let’s  face it…126 yards…what more is there to say…yes there were drops but all qbs have those 

He needs to do really really well against KC and  even  if he does…might not be enough 

i suspect they will either trade him before draft or will draft  a qb and have an open competition   If he stays, it might be as a backup

Going back to Dalton just seems inevitable. I never really thought differently about that.

I think Canales wanted to go back to Andy sooner after the car wreck but his thumb still wasn't good for New Orleans. Then he won two games and didn't want to make a switch in the middle of it regardless of Bryce's play/stats.

I'm booking it, first loss after the bye and Bryce is back on the bench.

Especially if he has another 100 yd passing game. I mean that's just not a fluke at this point.

OR: Bryce throws for 95 yards and 1 TD in a signature upset win against KC, and the legacy continues.

5th rounder, maybe 4rth if we get lucky

 

The tape on him is simply not good.  He is a game manager back up incapable of putting a team on his back to win. 

Unfortunately that's what I'm thinking as well. No better than a 4th if we are really lucky but probably just a 5th. That sucks but it has to be done to officially move on and away from him.

I’m not sure the timeframe on a sprained thumb, but, maybe Andy getting the start after the bye? 

Loyalty has to be to the team. Not Bryce. Coach and Dan have to show the players that they got their backs. Everyone knows Bryce is not the future so don’t waste everyone’s time.

    • After Bountygate and the information that came out on the Saints owners shielding pedophile priests in New Orleans it will forever be the Saints numero uno for me. FUG THE SAINTS! I hope this is just the beginning of a long term period of suffering for that shitty organization run by even shittier human beings. #2.Pats/Belicheat #3. Falcons (Mike Vick years then Matt Ryan/Julio running it up) Ryan pooping his pants and 28-3 def makes my bad days always better just thinking of those. #4 Pretty much any franchise fan base thats obnoxious Steelers, Eagles, Bills, Jets, Giants, Cowboys, etc.
    • Thank God DM used that #8 pick on a bona fide WR1 and not some bum pass rushing prospect like Stewart or someone else. I believe Tet is legit WR1 material and going forward will be our long term answer at that position since we desperately were in need of one once they traded away DJ Moore.  Tet could possibly end up even being better long term than someone who I respect a ton as a WR in Moore. Evans has been a pleasant surprise and great TE/FB depth piece going forward who could make the most of his opportunities.  Any good offense worth a damn in the NFL has 3 TEs that can do multiple things and being scared by Ian Thomas play for years should makes us all appreciate what Evans is quietly doing as a ROOKIE at one of the hardest positions to learn at the pro level.  Keep cooking DM. This season is not over obviously but seeing some growth out of young talent finally is a breathe of fresh fuggin air for once. 
    • Saw this show up in my new feed. Nice to see a couple of our rookies making it into the top 5 so far, even if it is a pff measure... From https://www.pff.com/news/nfl-top-15-rookies-week-9-2025 ... 4. TE Mitchell Evans, Carolina Panthers (78.7) Evans struggled in the Panthers’ tight win over the Packers, finishing with a 41.8 PFF overall grade — third worst among tight ends this week. He was not targeted in the game and played only one snap in pass protection. He did log 15 run-blocking snaps, and although he earned a 68.9 PFF run-blocking grade in zone looks (seven snaps), his 39.0 mark in gap schemes (second worst for the week) dragged him down to a 46.6 PFF run-blocking grade overall — sixth worst for the week. Despite seeing zero targets over his past two games, Evans still leads the Carolina tight end group with a 74.3 PFF receiving grade. He has caught all nine of his targets for 90 yards, six first downs and two touchdowns. Evans also leads the Panthers’ tight end group in PFF run-blocking grade (72.2). He has recorded a 20.5% positive play rate across 175 snaps.  5. WR Tetairoa McMillan, Carolina Panthers (78.6) McMillan had a better day against the Packers, recording four catches for 46 yards. Most of that production came in the first quarter via two 16-yard catches — one of which he snatched from Carrington Valentine’s hands, who was in perfect position to break up the pass. McMillan accounted for three first downs on the day, although Green Bay was able to limit his impact after the catch, holding him to 0.8 yards after the catch per reception. McMillan now has 41 catches for 558 yards — a top-15 mark. He is also tied for second with 19 explosive gains of 15-plus yards. Three of McMillan’s catches against the Packers came between the numbers, bringing him to 22 for 318 yards and 19 first downs (tied for second most) this season. He owns a 26.1% threat rate and a 76.6 PFF receiving grade between the numbers. He also ranks in the top 10 in explosive gains (10) and yards after the catch per reception (5.5) within that area of the field.
