He absolutely had the best game of his career, and until the refs game thing drive it still netted 19 points, which is basically what he’s done his entire career.

if you just want to be helpful about an aberration and think it means he’s going to turn into something resembling what the panthers gave up for him, cool. But I’ve got his whole career backing up how I feel about him. Bryce defenders have one game and narratives. 

The dude literally lead us to scoring drives on all but 2 drives and didn't turn it over against a top 5 D. It was the second most points the Chiefs have allowed this year. Not to mention our run game was probably the worst it's been the entire year. It's not Bryce's fault our defense can't stop a nosebleed.

Just weird the amount of hate Bryce is getting today of all weeks. I've seen more hate towards him today than his first 2 games of the year 🤦‍♂️

Oh it’s “scoring drives” now and not touchdowns. 

let’s keep moving those goal posts

OL held up for the most part, although a few times Brady got bullied and of course the false starts, that said though, there was generally time, and I think thats what is really allowing bryce to grow.  He is FINALLY starting to trust that his line will actually not let him get destroyed and as such, he's playing with more confidence.  Also, I think his aggression is directly attributable to Dalton. 

All in all, FINALLY he looks like a game manager, thats all I wanted to see, but he has thrown in some dots that have have him looking like he can be even more than that.  I keep saying, remember, guys like Dak, Brady, and brees were all game managers to start, then they shed that label as the game slows down and they can use their mind to take over a game.

 I dont think its matter of if bryce can step on a field and play pro ball at this point. Can he be good? Can he be elite? That's another questionable discussion that only a bryce stan wouldn't entertain. On a list of options he is still last for me. If I'm starting a team and I get to choose from him Sanders, ward, or maybe stroud. He is still at the bottom. 

What has Sanders or Ward done to make you think they're better than Bryce?

He looked legitimately good today. Missed some throws and reads, but made some good throws he hasn’t been making before. I was genuinely impressed overall. If he can continue this upward trajectory, we might not need someone else after all. And lawd knows I’m not someone who is quick to compliment Bryce.

This is realistically the second time he has had a "this is his best game as a pro" moment in nearly two full seasons. That's the definition of an anomaly until we see more of a sample size in the remaining games. We aren't even in Kyle Allen territory yet in terms of sample size.

But to his credit he is showing improvement as a passer within the structure of his game. The issue is can he ever be that kind of QB who will elevate those around him instead of needing everything to go perfectly to just throw for more than one or two touchdowns or lead his offense to 30 or more points? He's done that once in his career so far. And at the end of the day we still only put up 7 points on the board from the passing game today. The team as a whole came to play. That's progress from Canales. That's my biggest takeaway.

Yes. Whether you want to blame drops, playcalling, refs, bryce. The passing game is still questionable. He needs to start putting together games where he can muster more than 1 td threw the air not just from a quick slant that teams will pick up on eventually. Thats what good qbs are capable of.

Up to this point I’d take Teddy Two Yards over what I’ve seen from Bryce every day and twice on Sunday, and I HATED Teddy. But that was two different teams back then. Not really comparable. 

Weak armed qb carried by an elite RB and a defense that played its head off

seems pretty similar to me

Where first off... I said if I was starting a team and all were coming out he is last on the list. Secondly, they aren't anomalies as qbs. Nobody has succeeded at bryces stature outside of flutie in case you missed that. And that's not even getting into the other limitations.

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
