Bryce Young is a problem — what would you do if you were Dan Morgan?

They will not trade Young this season. As bad as he's playing they still need him until they feel comfortable that Hooker can backup Andy. So no matter how much some fans want him off the team now it's not happening until the season is over.

Besides, if he has a good game in a week or two 1/4 of the Huddle will be back on the bandwagon anyway.

Give him one more game. Maybe two. If he plays similarly to how he usually does... then, start the QB carousel because you can't afford to trade mid season for anyone good but you can't just let play that bad be excused, no matter draft position. And it's not like the answer is on the roster, so we'll be losing out either way.  But we will get to see if canales is the QB whisperer we dreamed of, or just another piece of fools gold.

Then in the offseason you trade him for whatever you can get. Which... Won't be much. BY is cooked.

The only reason I disagree is with a washed Dalton you're getting a different side of the same coin. They made this bed. Time to sleep in it.

I'd elevate Hooker first and give him a couple games. Maybe Dalton for a few weeks, then move on to Hooker.

Edit: your point tho is why a few of us really wanted something different at backup QB... I don't need someone to win, but how the hell did we end up keeping one of the few NFL QBs with as weak an arm as Bryce?  Ugh

I never said Young. They will have to trade for someone to play that isn't Young. That or play Young again like last year.

They don't need to do anything. There's 3 qb's on the roster and all are capable of getting us a high draft pick. There's no saving this season because the die has been cast and what will be is already in motion. Buckle up buttercup and enjoy the ride.

Which is why Canales needs to be told he's canned unless he starts running the fuging ball on 2nd and 2 or 2nd and 1. Pisses me off so much to see Hubbard get 8-9 yards, then dial up a deep throw where nobody's open, Young forces it and gets sacked or picked.

I don't disagree but I'd rather we at least see Hooker for a couple/few games at some point to see if maybe he's a backup in the long term.

Canales has his own issues with his with preparation. Both his and his players. He got embarrassed against the Jags who made him look like an amateur.

I'm sure you will see him around the end of the season unless he's not showing anything in practice. He may not make it that long if he's not improving.

I liked Hooker at UT. Also was amused that Brad Nessler would never solely say his last name. Always "HendonHooker" real quick on every dropback.

    • Baker was traded before he played his 5th year.  RGIII was cut before playing his 5th year. So it is rare but it happens. 
    • Time to hit 4000 yards and 30 TDs (including rushing). I don't care about INTs anymore. That's a big part of the problem. He plays uber conservative until the game is on the line. Playing not to lose, instead of playing to win. Time to let it friggin rip from the get. The team can win with a pick or 2 if he has 3-4 TDs. Stop playing scared.  But to be fair, his WRs have not been great. You all can bash about 1st round picks and O-line cap all you want.  Chuba as your #1 RB his entire career.  Adam Thielen as your best WR for 2 of 3 seasons is ridiculous. Then a rookie as your best in the 3rd season. Legette is not a 1st round talent. Probably closer to a 4th if you compare him to Brazzel this year. Coker has been a walking injury report. Nothing else to really speak of at WR or TE. Jimmy Horn has potential, but he is not an NFL starter yet. Oline has been better as run blockers than pass blockers. Ickey has always been so-so as a pass blocking LT. Center has been a revolving door for 3 years. Damien Lewis has been as marketed. Hunt is a great run blocker but an ok pass blocker - when healthy. Moton has been solid at RT. Biggest problem with the oline has been depth. When someone went down, their replacement became a glaring weakness. Overall a good but not great unit the last 2 years. 2023 was a ish show. Nothing else to say.  Not one game breaker, take it to the house offensive weapon since DJ Moore. Hopefully we get a little of that from Brazzell.  Either way, in his 4th season, it doesn't matter. You have to be able to overcome whatever comes your way. First 3 seasons with a young supporting cast is defendable. Can't use that anymore though. 3rd year in the offense. 3rd year with the same HC.   
    • Highest amount of OL salary cap in the league too. The Chiefs are behind us at 2 but we are ahead of them by a cool $23 million. https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/position/offensive-line/_/year/2026/table/active/sort/cap_total
