All qbs are game managers until they're not. And not many take the next step without quality around them 

I agree with that--and a good game manager understands that it is his job to get the ball to better athletes at the right time.   I would even say, "All great QBs are game managers first."  What then, is the special sauce that separates game manager from elite QB?   OC/play calling, weaponry, protection.  The General, the ammo, and the armor.

Bryce is my quarterback and ill be at 1058 sportsbar next week if you want these hands. Ask for kyle.

And there have been teams with average QBs and loaded rosters-mainly teams with great defenses--like the 85 Bears, for extreme example, that have won it all with a game manager--but it is much better to have an elite QB....

This draft will have some decent qbs who could become a good NFL starting QB--I think of Cousins being taken with RGIII in the same draft.  I think of Brady being drafted when the Pats had Bledsoe---I hope we go after a guy like Howard from Ohio State, Rourke from Indiana, or (and people might laugh at this, but he has the skills) Beck from Georgia. 

Yeah, Bryce is a game manager--that is all he was at Bama.

 

 

That is an ultimate indictment.  It's one thing to be a stud on dynasty college team full of blue chip talent driving up crazy stats, but to be just a facilitator and let the other guys eat says everything. 

The whole "point guard" thing sounded very strange to me at the time.  It makes sense now though.  Bryce is never going to be that guy to put the team on his back routinely.  His bread and butter is going to be like Bama, let the play makers eat and don't make any costly mistakes.

He hasn't converted me yet to believing he's the long term answer, but he's made huge strides in making me eat crow. 

I saw some pin-point throws today and over the last few games that have been really encouraging.

This is pretty much where I am.

Bryce has done a very good job the last couple months and he's earned the right to be in the conversation as the starting QB moving forward. That said, I still want another QB from the draft as well as a competitive option from FA.

LOL what a damn dumbass. 

I'll fight you if you don't like Bryce.

Seems like he's learning out there. He's opportunities with his legs the last few weeks and he didnt' take them. It was good to seem make some nice runs. That make everyone's job easier. I'd like to see some 300 yd games from him. But he is definitely a clutch player.

If you guys think we are going to win anything meaningful in today's NFL throwing for less than 200 yds a game then you are delusional.

You can win a lot running for 250+.

Bryce is special. We are seeing all the things that made him a favorite as the #1 pick. He has sick anticipation. He has arm talent. This dude can def be a winner with a team built around him, just have to keep him healthy and put a team around him
