My gut says keep him in and let him ride this out to a top 5 pick.

But that's a fan take. There's guys on the roster who don't deserve that. We need to keep that in perspective too.

Sure, but Dalton will come in and go to IR in the same game. Then what?

Seems likely we're going to see Hooker sooner or later. We'll just see what happens when we get there.

At some point you gotta give up on Bryce and shift your attention to evaluating guys like XL and Sanders. It's hard to evaluate guys when the QB play is this trash. Hell, it makes me think T-Mac might be all world with a real QB.

I have to agree with you. I think it's going to come to a head in the locker room again if not.

I feel like we saw his ceiling when he returned to the starting line up last season - and although he was much improved he still was not the reason we won games, but at least he wasn't the reason we lost them.

He was the same QB at Alabama.  On his best days he was a game manager but he was never going to drive the field with 1 minute left in the game and make any hero plays.  People keep saying how that Alabama team lacked talent.  No, they lacked a first round worth QB.

It was Bryce who finally made Alabama look beatable after dominating for over a decade.

How the scouts missed this is beyond me.

Just curious, but what are the "give him more time" clinging to?

Well for one, what other realistic choice is there?

Barring a season ending injury, Bryce is the guy for this year.

Next year all options are open, but there aren't any other real world solutions for the 2025 season.

I do wonder if the Panther would trade him or keep him as backup to compete against the rookie if we draft a QB. 
I mean what really could we get for him. Maybe a 5th? 
As of right now the 5th year option should not even be entertained.

    • Nobody is giving up a 4th rounder for a backup QB And anyone who needs a starter badly enough to where Bryce would then be their starter, is such a bad team that they're not giving up a pick likely to be about pick 105ish overall, instead of just dealing with a bad QB situation for a season and then drafting one in a loaded QB draft next year. I'm looking through all the teams right now and can't think of a single one that would be willing to part with anything better than a 6th rounder. Barring injuries (and excluding the Panthers), there look to be 10 teams who don't know with 100% certainty who their starting QB will be in 2027... Dolphins, Jets, Browns, Steelers, Vikings, Colts, Saints, Falcons, Cardinals, and Rams. Of those 10...  The Rams know it will be Stafford or Simpson.  The Saints more than likely will be sticking with Shough unless he takes a huge step backwards.  So neither are giving up any draft picks for Bryce right now, just wouldn't make sense for either. Down to 8 Given their current QB situation of having multiple QBs they already need to evaluate between this year, the Browns (Shedeur/Watson), Vikings (Kyler/JJ), Colts (Jones/Richardson/Leonard), and Falcons (Penix/Tua), wouldn't be giving up a 4th (or maybe any pick) to bring in another QB to muddy the waters even more. Down to 4 Dolphins just signed Willis and wouldn't want to bring in another small Alabama QB who has struggled after just dumping Tua instead of just rolling with Ewers as the backup.   That then leaves the Steelers, Cardinals, and Jets left as it's clear none of them have any idea who their 2027 could be as of right now.  But the Steelers would for sure rather just see what one of the 2 QB's they drafted in the last 2 drafts could become than give up a mid round pick for Bryce.  Same goes for the Cardinals in taking Beck this past weekend. The Jets would be the most likely team to even consider taking him on, but I think it seems very apparent right now given them rolling with Geno and now talk of bringing in Wilson to be his backup, they're punting on QB this year to draft someone next year, so why give up even a mid round pick for Bryce?
    • Honestly I am not sure Pickett couldn’t step in for him. But I don’t see a clear easy upgrade and we are not KC with Alex Smith we are a team that hadn’t done poo for almost ten years and just made the playoffs. And looked good in the game. That stadium atmosphere on that day…. you know Tepper ate that poo up. Not one drink has been thrown in a while.  You had better make sure if you replaced him after that that you had a sure fire upgrade. 
    • Makes sense. If Bryce is ass this year, we are probably drafting our new QB next draft and sitting him behind Bryce for a year
