The season is lost. There is nothing new to learn about the Red Rifle. There is more to learn about Young, like is he going to level off and play consistently, or just poop the bed too often to keep. This is his final audition and I'm all for it. If he's crap, then we move up the draft and we can look at a replacement. If he's solid, then we have confidence playing him next season.

Do not. I repeat. Do not move up the draft for a QB!

People will hate it but I think he’s already solidified as our incumbent starter next year. Seeing what geno, baker, darnold etc have done, the nfl needs to learn that development is more important than instant stats.

he needs time to grow and develop. And maybe most importantly, he needs stability within the organization. 

mahomes sat an entire year. Jackson and Allen both started as the backup their rookie year. 

I wholeheartedly believe we should have started Bryce on the bench last year and the organization is most responsible for his dismal start. Not helping the matter was an atrocious offense around him.

Draft a mid to late round qb for a bit or competition but most importantly, give him the same system for a second year. I think it’ll pay dividends

Geno, Baker and Darnold have the physical talent to be in this league. Bryce does not, and if he doesn't overperform, then we lose. 

WTF was this team thinking selling their souls for him?

    • 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. 
    • If you plug Bryce onto the Pro Bowl roster you might have a chance to compete for a SB. If he's surrounded by top tier talent with a top tier defense on the other side, a field flipping punter, and a kicker good from 60+ you might have a chance. But that means you basically have to recreate Saban's Bama in the NFL and that's impossible... and Bryce couldn't win a championship in that environment either. What the Panthers didn't realize when they got so obsessed with his "PG mentality" was that what they were looking st was a "barely checks the box PG". The basketball equivalent of Bryce would be an undersized PG with marginal athleticism who can make the basic plays but adds nothing to the team in terms of elevating the overall team. Not a great shooter, not a great defender, not a great driver. Just a guy who can basically get you into the offense and be a matador on defense. Basically a placeholder while you look to upgrade the PG position.
