Do you think we have a top 10 QB now?

If this was his first season I'd be thinking top 15 bare minimum. I still have reservations because of what's come before this 9 game stretch, but I certainly go into next season with much more optimism.

Put it this way, after the benching I was thinking about the QB prospects in the 2025 draft. Now I wouldn't take any of them over Bryce.

Bryce looked way better than I thought was possible today. Am I calling him a top 10 NFL QB now? C'mon... are you serious?

What I saw today showed me that he might have the potential to be that though and that's huge.

Yeah and being in the top 10 still is not an "elite" tag. It's rare that there are 10 elite QB's in the NFL at a given time.

He gives a poo about that trade at this point. It's in the past, and fans still going back and forth with bears fans over something dumb like bragging rights when both teams are bad is just monumentally ignorant. 

Not to pull a Marty Hurney but it’s kind of irrelevant when you can always trade future picks. You’re trading future variable risk for the guy you want. Bryce looks the part now. Best new QBs the last two years are Bryce, Stroud, and Daniels.

Penix has been really solid in his 3 starts for a rookie.   300+ yards, 3 TDs in regulation today.  Pick was on the WR with a fluke pop up.  Every L he has taken as a rookie has been OT.  I think the Falcons got a dude.  Think you got to put him in with the young dudes

He does look good. If our defense wasn’t historically bad though we win this by two TDs.

Yup. The excuses/rationale that folks made for Bryce in recent weeks apply for Penix today - drops, missed kicks, and defense. Game would have gone the other way with any of those elements absent.

    • Like many of the old heads, I’ve been here for a long time.  I got a lot of respect for everyone on this board for your dedication to this team.  We’ve all been through it during the tougher years. At this point in life, I’m not one to judge anyone’s level of dedication, or their reasons why anymore.  Time, and a lot of bad football, will do that.  For me, it’s simple.  We share a common bond.  For that, I love and appreciate all of you crazy SOB’s. For me, last season was at a minimum, entertaining.  BY lead a young team to multiple come from behind 4th qtr wins.  That showed me heart, and that he has the clutch gene.  That’s the wildcard intangible.  For me, that was fun to watch even  if it was mindbogglingly frustrating at times.  Over the past two seasons, we have progressively built a better team around him.  On paper, the defense should be better this season.  That’ll help.  Let’s see what he can do as the other guys continue to develop too.  Besides, his contract is cheap for a few more years, and we just made some smart cap decisions during the draft. Let’s see how it shakes out.

    • I would very much liked to have seen Jake Delhomme's career if Tommy Jone no hurt Jake.  I just know that roster and the leadership were destined to hit paydirt but Jake was never the same after the elbow injury, and unfortunately he was the sole reason they didn't make it back to the big one.  I think that 08 team was the best in the league, and Jake masked his inability well all season til the Arizona game put it all on display.  I'll go back to the season prior even and say the 07 team was primed to be a competitor.  Jake was off to a fantastic start that year (for a Panthers QB).  They may have been a championship caliber club for a few seasons after 08 too.
