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.

    • Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
    • Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.      
    • I think people aren’t patient enough with Young. It can take a few years for a QB to develop. Look at Darnold, Baker and most recently Daniel Jones.   he hasn’t been able to put up big passing numbers either cause of how much we run the ball. You can tell our coaching staff still hasn’t took the training wheels off Bryce and let him go all out. We’ve had some pretty bad receivers as well. We finally got a true number one last year and look how much Bryce improved. Still we didn’t really have any depth behind TMac. Coker was hurt for a lot of the year and XL was our #2. How many big plays or TDs has XL dropped? I think this year can be the year we see Bryce able to hit his stride. If not then we can start looking for another qb but I just ask people to be patient.
