Ryan Mallet =

Did you watch the Sugar Bowl? The 2011 Sugar Bowl?

Mallet was excellent tonight. He was let down by 7 drops. He was throwing strikes all over the field.

Yes I did and under pressure he went down like a sack of bricks. I gave him his props on the nice throws he had but he was far from excellent. Mallet+Pressue=Bad results (see the last pay)

that game losing int was brilliant

Yep, so is a blitz right up the A gap that no one picks up...

That pick was not his fault and you can hang them not winning on the combination of an o-line and receiving corps that played like crap most of the game.

Mallet has a high ceiling to me, has all the physical tools but needs to land somewhere he can develop those skills into an nfl QB but that's most of the QBs in this year's draft...

You get blitz in the NFL. Interceptions are the QBs fault, thats just how it works. They usually get a pass (from some folks) on tipped balls, other than that nada.

As I said earlier, he isn't a bust, but hes not #1 overall material (I didn't say anyone said that either)...yea there were PLENTY of drop passes, and he had guys in his face all night, but that happens. And you can't get around the interception. You can't make excuses for it.

He'll get picked up by a team that needs a QB, but hes around 15-20 imo

His WR's don't catch the balls because all of their fingers are still sore from the last time he threw them the ball. Gotta throw like 100 MPH on every ball. No touch whatsoever.

I do think he'll be at best a low-level starter in the NFL and will keep getting chances b/c of his physical skills/stature... But, McShay appeared right on in his analysis of him... He can't throw on the run/move worth a crap. Teams can save themselves trouble with drafting this guy early and sign Hunter Cantwell instead lol.

    • Ill just be happy if Tepper doesnt make another locker room appearance the rest of the season. 
    • The question I wonder involves putting the cost behind us.      At this point he's here, so does the premium paid even matter anymore? It set expectations no doubt, and they weren't met.  He's been bench-worthy bad, but he's come back and looked first average, above-average to maybe great, and then downright bad again.  Now we're back on a good trend again.  Absolute rollercoaster.   So what level of performance deems him a viable option to hold?  He's looked absolutely incapable of moving an offense at times, and others like a guy you can "Purdy" with some dimes sprinkled in.     So, if he continues on this 2 game trend and shows consistent average to above-average play, we're treading into tricky territory.  Such a big investment but he tops out as a top-15/20 QB option.  It's Alex Smith KC type vibes. Are we going to be sitting at 7-10 come end of season and feel kind of meh? It's right at that fringe of what is worth it.  If he doesn't re-sh*t the bed, we may be best suited to go BPA next draft and see the 2026 progression.  And that will be the final make/break year.  What I can see if he doesn't fall apart and things look manageable: He may end up being the average precursor to finding the great talent that you can build the team around.  How Alex Smith was in KC.  They built that with him (not around him) until they eventually got Mahomes.  Heck, think back to Trent Green/Warner.  So, BY can manage, we may get some success, but if a stud comes along, we bail and roll with the new gun.    
    • We win 2 games largely due to historic rushing from our backup RB we signed in free agency and now the huddle is regarded as the most toxic place on the internet because not everyone shares the same opinion that Bryce Young has proven himself to actually be a long term starting QB yet. This place was just as ugly through the prime Cam years. People complained about him even when he was producing and we were winning the division. Things were just as ugly through the Jake years. Sometimes people would get so irate and fed up with him they would literally be calling for his head. How about we just give eviscerating one another a breather and see how this team and Bryce look on the road. Nothing anyone can say is going to make a difference until then.
