Believe he should start in the league and for us next year? Yeah for sure.

Believe in the height of his ceiling - in any way? Believe he's our franchise savior? Not yet.  He's played decently for 3/4th of a year, which isn't really enough to be sure of much. Hopeful, for sure, and looking forward to next year.

Just curious to see what the arguments are if you don't believe in him. I have never seen a turnaround like this tbh, a player that looked so lost and bad turn to a guy who looks and has the confidence of a star. 

Best turnaround since Josh Allen. Go back and watch his college play. I've never seen a QB look so wildly inaccurate and then develop into a legit NFL passer.

This. He definitely showed a lot in the final stretch of the season. Enough to actually make me excited to see him next season. He looked like a legit MVP caliber QB in the final game. That's exciting. But we need to see a lot more than just a handful of games before I'm ready to say we definitely have our long-term answer at QB. I sure hope we do.

I believe Bryce should be our starter next year. The problem now though is, which Bryce will he be? He has been the biggest draft bust in history and he has been a top half of the league QB. Will he revert back to early season 2 Bryce? Maybe. I don't think so, but who knows really.

Definitely glad he's trending in the right direction going into the offseason. He could still regress like Stroud did this year. Need to see him have a season where he puts it all together for us to feel like we finally have our "guy." Hes close but not quite there yet. I hope he gets there.

This^. I'm glad he finally started playing how he's capable of playing. He's got to be consistent with his game over a full season before I'm convinced he can be the answer at qb for a while. Now it's up to Canales to design an offense that takes advantage of what he does best. He and Dan will have to finish building a team around him as well. I do believe they can win with him.

I'm feeling much better than I was at the beginning of the year.  When he was benched, I felt sure he was done, finito, gone, out the door.  And when they didn't trade him before the deadline, I was wondering what they saw the the rest of us didn't.  But since he was put back in after Dalton's wreck injury, he has played like a completely different QB.  

He has earned the starting job for next year.  Like others, I want to see if he continues this forward trajectory or if we need to draft another QB in 2026.

Believe is a weird word for this. Believing in him does not make him better. 

Do I have confidence in him? Kinda. He did much better the last half of the season. I'm fine with going into next season with him as the starter. However, it feels like a trap at times and I really want them to go find somebody as an insurance policy that isn't 40 years old. 

What happens if he "loses his confidence again" or goes back to what he was doing. Then we are talking about drafting a QB again. OR what happens if he tears an achilles or something. He has been durable so far but you never know. 

I wouldn't go do anything crazy but I would have a competent guy behind him. There will be cheap options to pick from:

  • Drew Lock
  • Jacoby Brissett
  • Jameis Winston
  • Justin Fields
  • Carson Wentz
  • Cooper Rush

etc.

One thing Dan keeps saying is they want competition at every position and QB is no exception. Bryce has won his place on the team and to be named starter. But to stay the starter he needs to play at a high level or I hope we bring in other guys to challenge him unless they think Dalton is the guy. At which point I hope they draft a guy like in the third round who drops and at that point is BPA.  Or bring in a young guy drafted high earlier who didn't work out and let Canales work his magic.

      Monroe Freeling’s lovely GF

      With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.

      Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.

      Jeremy Fowler: Panthers draft day intel

      By Swaggasaurus · Posted

      Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
