Does Canalas trust Bryce?


Recommended Posts

Reich and Thomas Moore both didn't trust Young based on the play calling. I think Canales said it himself about having to trust Young more last year. The common denominator is that Young does nothing to give anyone confidence. They scheme up and call simple plays for him but he continues to stink up even those basic plays.

Well your definition of vet is ambiguous. Canales had his chance to pick another guy and chose to stand pat with Andy. That's on him, and Dan to some extent for allowing it or insisting on it, which is worse. Or you can blame Tepper for it all. 

Being better than Dalton, availability, isn't hard to improve so I left it that way intentionally. 

Pretty much but the who and how much is intriguing. In the end it's always Tepper first and then in my mind because it always goes back to that root of all issues.

Canales probably trusts that BY is his best chance on the roster at this point and has to play him until the season is lost or mathematically over.  Then he doesn't.  Or he gets fired on the way.  Which ever one comes first.

This idea that the coach has nothing to do with personnel is crazy

Backup qb?  Im not so sure about that.  Also what is the point in bringing in some stop gap qb to be a backup?  What does that accomplish.  This is a tear the bandaid off year.  If Bryce sucks this year then hes gone.  There isnt much point in not letting him play it out.  He seals his fate.

With his level of coaching that is in question at this point. He was literally brought in for Bryce by Morgan. He certainly hasn't earned it to date. 

I think he was brought in because nobody else wanted the job IF it came with the caveat that Young had to start.

For all of the platitudes players and talking heads give Young, they all know what's really happening here and don't want anything to do with him.

I agree. Good staff walk when they know they can't win with the setup. Plenty of scrubs take the cash and then learn.

Bryce Young was not the problem this week. The problem was his playmakers outside of TMac. Legette, Renfrow, Sanders and Tremble were all aweful. 

Canales was the problem for that 4th down in the redzone. He should shoulder the blame for taking his sweet time to come up with plays, and also to field a roster that was not mentally ready week 1

We better not pick up that option either.  Seriously.

A few mid-tier showings at the end of another throwaway season would leave me nerve wracked that we'd do exactly that. Tepper REALLY doesn't want to hear the pile on that will happen when we inevitably have to move on from Bryce.

    • That should have been this year. Tough to sell to anyone worth getting when this crew is going into year 3 on the hot seat. I still think keeping Evero will sink them all after last year's showing. If/when he is scapegoated they need to show improvement or it's likely to be so eone else's problem next year. I do agree in principle tho, it all should have happened after last year's problems. 
    • I've listened to some things that have calmed the "Bryce was flat out terrible" to just "he was really bad" in Week 1. It's Year 3 though, and that shouldn't be the barometer. I've got 1% hope left for Bryce, and that's just blind homerism coming out.  I'm scared that as much emphasis as the team places on advanced stats and PFF that the team *doesn't* think Bryce was that bad in Week 1. Couple that with so many of the QBs in the league looking rough, offense being down in general, and I feel like there's a lot of "what if's" going on in the building instead of facing the music.  Lose Week 2, and we should switch the main focus back to building/churning the roster, evaluating young guys, and hoping our next QB can have a Jayden Daniels level of impact. As we're all well too aware of, QB is a crapshoot a lot of the time. Admit we made a bad pick, and go draft another. And another. Repeat until correct.     
    • I wouldn't want any of those starting as a rookie on day 1.  That said, we need a vet, that is not Andy Dalton, that can be the starter while a prospect grows and learns on the sidelines.
