Zero competition and no backup plan

I don’t understand why we are in year 3 of Bryce and this team has done nothing to push him or have any sort of competition. Absolutely no backup plan just all in on a QB who had one of the worst rookie seasons I’ve ever seen.

Not taking a flyer on a mid to late round QB after his rookie season is baffling to me. Bringing back Andy Dalton after showing he is completely washed instead of an actual competent back up is crazy. Also how the fug did Jack Plummer stick around for so long. Dan Morgan talks about bringing in DAWGS so why does this not apply to the most important position on the team?

This would all make sense if Bryce came out his rookie year looking like Stroud or Daniels but not after your statistically one of the worst QBs in the league.

A mid round flyer qb is a wasted pick 99 out of every 100 picks. It’s the single worst investment in a draft pick. Case in point, people wanted to take Hooker in the 3rd round and now we have him on our PS

To be fair, he was coming off a major injury and the reason he wasn't taken higher.  Any team that drafted him knew it was essentially a redshirt season as he came back from surgery.

It should have been the guy replacing Dalton but nope. Bring in a vet not a rookie or a PS level guy like Hooker. Plumber should have been cycled out last year looking for something better because he stunk always.

It is if you have a decent starting QB on your roster. Most late round picks end up gone in a year or two anyway. Sometimes you may get lucky. That can’t happen if you don’t even try.

We spent a second rounder on an Injured running back who’s played like 3 snaps for us and then gave the current starter a massive extension, signed another in FA, then spent a 4th rounder on another one.

This front office clearly has no problem with “waste”

We should've brought in someone like Jameis or Howell. Someone who has shown they can put up numbers but have struggled with turnovers. If Bryce struggles, you can play them and more fairly evaluate the rest of your offensive talent positions and if they clean up their turnover issues maybe you aren't absolutely desperate for QB in the draft. If they don't you're gonna keep losing anyway so whatever.

Why waste a draft pick on a flyer when we have all the holes this roster has?

Either Bryce wins or he gets us a high draft pick.

Look at it as an investment in Bryce if you want. Competition breeds excellence. Let the best man win idc when you were drafted.

If Bryce doesn’t step up cut ties and move on.

Instead we got to see Bryce poo the bed in the opener for the 3rd year in a row.

Or you know make the struggling player actually earn the starting role and C on his chest in camp like everyone else.

step up like the last 10 games or step up to a top 10 qb for the year.

 

If he plays like he did the last 10 games I would still cut ties with him.  You are perpetually having to work against his flaws. Height, strength mechanics etc.  Just not worth it

I think the well was intentionally left dry......because if you put someone with a real NFL arm out there....it sort of becomes obvious to all his teammates the difference even in camp/practice.   And how long can you deal w/ that in house and w/ the fanbase?

      Do You Agree With These Excuses?

      Extrapolate that with every QB for that matter. I guarantee you there's quite a bit of missed opportunities and yards left on the field for everyone. Many NFL QBs deal with WRs not putting in A+ effort, subpar o-line play and other deficiencies. The great ones are able to rise above these issues and create opportunities for plays. Guys like Josh Allen and Patrick Mahomes can both play in and out of structure, as well as find ways to get yards when things break down and mask mistakes by throwing guys open, creating opportunities from nothing, etc. Bryce Young has only shown he's able to make things happen when the rest of the team picks up his slack. Very rarely does he create those opportunities himself. When this is a consistent pattern year after year with Bryce where he shows up lackluster, it's a concern. This is year three and he should be elevating the team as a first overall pick this franchise traded up for.  He was far from elevating anyone against JAX. In fact, he needed others to elevate and create for him. Excuses may be fine for a rookie, but this is year three for the first overall pick. Not looking good so far.

      I think the worst issue is coaching. Countless bad snaps, XL not getting his feet in or trying on runs plays, our centre being down field when he didn't need to be. All seem to be from poor coaching for me. I believe Canales is to soft to rip the players a new one when the fug up. Plus I honestly believe that Canales is slow getting his plays in giving Bryce less time to diagnose and adjust to the defence. Don't worry I could of head butted Bryce for that fumble and the 4th down throw aways but the other plays are explainable to me
