considering this team has roughly the same mean aggregate talent as a decent college team, it's as if he never left.

bs. This team is loaded with talent. It's missing experience and lacking in coaching in some areas.

Talent and youth are two things this team actually has.

The problem in the NFL is that talent alone rarely wins games.

I get tired of comments like this....there is 1 position on a football team that can drastically effect the look and perception of a team QB. A QB make a team look horrific when the rest of the team as a whole really isn't that bad.

See Jake Delhomme in 2009. Was that team bad or was the QB play causing the team to be bad. Moore came in and provide stable QB play and they dramatically looked different.

Bottom line is this team HAS a good defense, they have a great running game and they have a top tier WR. QB play can make all that irrelevent. People continue to act like the OL is garbage.....but they can not pass/run block w/ 10 defenders in the box consisitantly. Defenses are able to do that b/c of the QB (and that includes the play of both guys).

We have weak opponents this year?

Peyton Manning had a tough schedule his rookie year....check out his division.

New York Jets 12 4

Miami Dolphins 10 6

Buffalo Bills 10 6

New England Patriots 9 7

Indianapolis Colts 3 13

NFC is weak this year. Manning had tougher opponents than we will see this year. Peyton also threw at least 1 TD in 15 of his 16 starts. People need to leave Manning out of this Jimmy talk. Peyton ain't got nothing to do w/ Jimmy.

    • Well, the whole rationale used  for the high IQ point guard is it would allow us to spend our resources elsewhere….instead it’s all our first rounders ever since to support the bad pick.  Reality is our front office is just bad.  If you wanted Bryce Young you were going to need to do something unique and special for him.  Instead we just insert a QB with traditional tools into old NFL concepts that pair with traditional talent and our pass game is whack
    • Good to see some other folks are speaking the same language on this. It's simple common sense. But it seems like there's a disconnect due to the misplaced value the team has put on Thielen because he was the only vaguely good veteran WR willing to sign with the Panthers after we traded away DJ Moore. That time has come and gone. We have two first round WR's on the roster now.
    • Yeah I’m turning this into a Bryce can’t play QB thread. Just stating that offense was a poo show two years ago. No QB is succeeding in that, much less a rookie. I feel like it’s become a common debate strategy on here to just jump down the rabbit hole of saying he is just bad in so many ways when any certain point gets countered. If that doesn’t work we can deflect to how poorly this team has been ran. In regards to the actual point we are debating, the OL was struggling, half of the skill players aren’t on a roster, Mingo has done nothing with his new team and the staff are either not coaching or on their 3rd team in 3 years, aside from McCown (I liked McCown too). Honestly about as bad as it gets. No need to try to state how good of an offense it was billed it because that has been proven false at this point.
