Serious question: Jameis Winston or Bryce Young straight-up?

You can't win with Jameis. Yes, every once in a while, he throws for 500 yards, but he doesn't protect the ball and is always going to throw a ton of interceptions and put the team in a bad place.

this is not even a comparion to Bryce, I wouldnt want him on my roster. Jameis is fun to watch on someone else's team.

Interceptions are the worse thing a qb can do.  When an int is throw, it means either your team missed a chance to score or gave the other team an easy score (or sometimes both).  Given how many he throws, I can't imagine any circumstance where I would want Jameis as our starter.

Bryce is still an unknown and the unknown is better than the known Jameis.

Based upon what I see so far without a doubt, Bryce Young.  I am very impressed with Jamis Winston.  I think he is a deep passer. I think he is talented and I think he is a terrific individual.  No question in my mind that his teammates rally around him.
 

I’m not sure why, but Jameis Winston has always had interception problems.

Based on age, and the fact Bryce is trending up while Jameis is Jameis and will always be exactly what he is, it’s an easy decision: Bryce. If you had asked me three weeks ago, it would have been a different answer, but Bryce is showing capabilities he’d never shown any sign of before, so I’m opening up to the possibility of him actually being a legit franchise QB.

Bryce, just because there's still room to grow.

Jameis is what he's going to be at this point, which is probably underrated by most fans, but he's never going to be a true franchise QB long-term. He's basically the Vinny Testaverde of his generation.

Bryce may not end up being a franchise QB either, but he still has a chance to be. Especially with his recent performances. Even if he never plays better than he has the past month that still likely means he ends up having a better overall career than Jameis in the long run.

Bryce version 2.0 has yet to give a game away or throw a WTF was that kind of ball. This is an unfathomable step up that I never thought possible. If he does nothing else going forward he has absolved himself from being the biggest draft bust in history. 

I will levy high praise in saying we have a guy we can win with, maybe. 2 weeks in a row he showed that he could deliver with the game on the line and that the moment wasn’t too big for him. Not everyone has that.

He airmailed an over 40 yard DIME to Tremble after avoiding a sack, rolling out and delivering with someone in his face… and he didn’t let up the entire game. 

So I don’t know who this kid is. I know who Winston is. I’ll ride with Bryce

    • For starters, and again I am not sure what his capacity is in the media or how connected he is to the team, but I posted above Al Wallace says he is "absolutely" getting 50+ a year and he deserves it.  I obviously strongly disagree with it but it feels like like season when the team is slow leaking info to gauge the temp.   Secondly nobody on Gods green earth is going to sign an extension making less than he is making now.  Thats just crazy talk.  
    • No. Physical tools alone aren't enough. There are plenty of examples of draft busts to support that. Aost all of them had the physical tools and that wasn't enough. But Bryce is a perfect example of the opposite. Absolutely elite intangibles aren't enough either. If you simply don't have the physical abilities all the football intelligence and work ethic in the world won't be enough to overcome it. Just look to the sidelines every Sunday. We call those people "coaches".
    • As much as I despise Billy B, his philosophy on QBs is how I would approach things if I were a GM. You always keep looking for your next starter.  He has Bledsoe, who got injured and his backup ended up being the GOAT. Even while he had that going, he kept getting his next guy and developing them. When Brady got hurt, Cassel stepped in and went 11-5 and they missed the wild card by dumb luck. Who knows how far they would have gone if they had gotten in. Jimmy Gs career started in NE. There were others, but he always kept looking.  You can't be afraid to keep looking for your next starter, but it looks like we're afraid to look for more than a marginal one. If you're going to offer a $25m contract with incentives, that screams marginal QB. It also screams you're just a transition until we find our guy. After a 10 or 11 win season, he's not accepting that offer. And then you're in a Daniel Jones situation. Do you pay for a year of success and pray it wasn't a one year wonder?  To this point, Bryce has really produced nothing, yet for whatever reason, our FO has not even sniffed at the idea that we need a real QB room with real QBs. Dalton was never starter potential, Plummer was a joke. KP certainly isn't, neither is Grier.  Our approach to the QB room needs to be one of strength not fear. Bring in guys who can compete or who you think can compete. This is THE elite position, in an elite sport, paid premium salary, where production matters. Either you produce or you can lose your job. It's not mean, it's just the reality of the position.  And I'm really just tired of our candy ass approach to it.
