“We look better”

The problem hasn't been the play design or calling or QB play. It's been dropped balls and a struggling defense.

Neither Canales or BY can catch the balls. They're doing everything they can to put players in a situation to get the ball caught and moved down the field. It's on the rest of the players to do their own job.

When do we talk about our first round rookie? The one that’s good for a back breaking drop every single week? The one who despite being a “physical specimen” refuses to show strength at the catch point on what could have been a crucial third down conversion? While the player a lot of us wanted with that pick is the focal point of an offense that’s going to be playing in January. Do we keep giving him a pass because he has a funny accent?

XL is a liability right now. Maybe the biggest on this offense.

He is a rookie and looked like it today. He has a lot of potential but is too inconsistent and doesn't play big. I hope Thielen can help XL progress like Dalton did for Young.  Thielen was a force today and showed XL how it is done.

    • Yeah they were bad QBs - but QB's that stayed on their teams for several years.  BY is better than all of those. 
    • This is the right move even if you think Bryce isn't the future. Everything except signing him to a long term deal until proven otherwise. There's a decent chance we have a shot to draft a QB next year that we like. 
    • If we're still bad enough that Canales gets fired, especially if it's during the season, there is no way we could ever attract any HC worthy of the job if we told them they had to keep Bryce their first year. That would be 2 coaches he's gotten fired and 4 years of not performing up to par. I still say replace both of them next offseason.  I like Canales the man and I think he's done an absolutely outstanding job at fixing our locker room issues, as it was really bad before he showed up.  But I just don't see it from him with his in game decision making, I think he's held us back just as much as Bryce has, just in different ways. Canales was our Dan Campbell, the coach you hire to turn the franchises culture around for the HC after them to inherit and take to the next level.   The difference was he had some elite coordinators early on and really let him focus on his "leader of men" role as opposed to the X's and O's that Canales does himself and it's turned out well for him.
