It’s a good question I’m just so tired of not trusting the same guy who has shown he’s not capable. The team showed up to play today and Young almost squandered their effort. 
 

It’s far more likely Young shits the bed next week especially if it’s on the road. There’s no potential left to unlock. I’m just so tired of it. I’m tired of waiting for him to turn the ball over or panic, or both. 

I don't disagree but whom will we put ahead of him that isn't worse than Young is at times.

Bryce undeniably has a comeback spirit to him. But the reality is he lacks the physical tools for us to compete. Today's win was on Dowdle, but frankly the only reason this was competitive to begin with was Bryce.

We need to move on after this year. He's Jake Delhomme, without the arm.

You have to win in spite of him and generally need something absurd to happen to find a win

Wins

one of the biggest QB implosions of the year by Penix to gift us game (Bryce still stunk)

career performance by Rico paired with the best defense on the season (Bryce still stunk)

Losses

Bryce stunk

In summary Bryce stinks and it’s unfair to his teammates at this point. 

Find a new team. We dont shyt on wins.

I’m not saying Bryce is great. But… wasn’t there an impressive stat last year regarding his tight window throw success rate?

Why would you trust PFF, a gambling outfit designed to sway the sports betting market to make its shareholders money?

Just remembered as I watched Drake Maye just make a super heady play on that last drive, 3rd down, Bills had used all their timeouts, the Bills blitzed, forced Maye out of the pocket, all of the receivers were covered up downfield, Maye scrambles, thinks about throwing it, you can see it, then he tucks it, gains a couple of yards and takes a bit of a hit to stay in bounds, go down, and run the game clock down to 20 seconds by the time NE attempts the GW FG.  Super smart play.

meanwhile, out super processor attempted to call a timeout today when we didn’t have one left.  Again, this win, as almost all of our wins since he was drafted, was in spite of him.

Statistics, even when they can be molded, still are applied equally across all QBs. He was shown to stand out in that metric. The eye test also showed zero separation last year which would mean a lot of completions would come from a tight window.

When I see Tua play, I see Bryce in 5 years. I think that's Bryce's ceiling. Will his lack of athleticism, he won't be a top NFL QB ever. And just like Tua, he'll need a good to great O-line and star receivers to make it work. 

Personally I would rather take a chance on a rookie that has the potential to be great, like Drake Maye appears to be, not a point guard QB that can't elevate the players around him. 

I understand that some fans like Bryce, maybe because he isn't the typical alpha male QB or because he's so small, but in my opinion he's better suited as a backup QB that can come in the game when needed and you pray he doesn't turn the ball over. Yes he makes some good throws but he also makes some really dumb decisions

If you come away from this game thinking you need to Bench Bryce you’re crazy. He’s wildly inconsistent, but was a contributor in the winning of this game. 

Without his two turnovers this was easily a 2+TD win. Rico Dowdle cleaned up his mess. 
 

Dalton wins this game by 20+ points

2 bad teams played yesterday and one lost. Both teams are still bad today. Bryce is a big part of that. It wouldn't have been a close game if DC would have just gone rage rushing from the start. 

The Panthers would look so much better with just decent QB play. No way to avoid that fact.

    • We are in a unique situation here. Just my opinion. Three things: Moton’s playing health has been gradually declining as he is aging, while his contract is a drag on the payroll.  Something will give with him sooner than later but I think 2026 could be it.  So.. need a right tackle by 2027. At the latest.    Icky’s individual situation is unique as well. They would have had an extension done by now if not for the injury. We only have him for this year. With no assurance he will ever be the same player.  It would be reckless just to assume. Now we have Walker for one year. And that is a major relief. Maybe he is the answer, but the team that knows him best let him go and it was cheap for us to sign him. So how much did they value him?    We look to be needing two tackles by 2027.  And have poo for depth this year as well. So anyway we could draft a guy for 2027 RT and groom him this year, and see how Icky does, and act as needed in 2027. Spread out filling the two holes over 2 years.    Then I remember, hey if Bryce doesn’t get a Lot more consistent do they extend him? Hoping not, if he isn’t really good.    So then we are looking at the 2027 draft which people say is gonna be loaded with QBs. If we need a LT and a QB what is the pick gonna get spent on?   Taking into account the recovery success rates cited here on the Icky surgery, you might want to plan for him to not be the same player. rather than assume he will be and get caught with your pants down.  It is a tough situation.    And factor in that it is critically important to protect this QB, always, but especially this year where it is said to be make or break. And how you might feel about that.    All of it points to a real possibility that these things converge in the negative, like Bruce sucks and Icky is not the same. In that case if you want to be assured of getting LT secured, the only place you can do that through the could be very well be 2026 1st round.     For me, I would like to err on the side of caution.  Cover for these outcomes. It wouldn’t be fun. Added benefit is if we do have a tackle go down this year we will have a guy there. Because I don’t know what we have now.  
    • I agree. In a perfect world I wouldn’t want to draft another WR, but in this draft it’s fine based on the value of who will be there at #19.  All of the top tier guys worth pick #19 at other positions of need will be long gone. Only exception is Dillon Thieneman, but he’s almost a shoe in for the Vikings as the Harrison Smith replacement. Some posters on here want to draft an OT just to check a box without realizing the concerns and risk that comes along with said player. Sounds like XL to me… desperately drafting need… KC is a pretty safe player.  Produced all 3 years in college and last year in the SEC vs a lot of top corners in this years draft. He single handily dropped the South Carolina CB Brandon Cisse’s draft stock with how bad he abused him.   Sometimes it’s best to try and hit a double instead of going for the home run. This draft screams “go for the double”. Esp in the first. 
    • Look at what the Bears have done with Caleb Williams, drafting playmaking WR's and TE's and making it easier for him to operate the offense. Conception is perfect for what the offense needs (speed and someone who can make defenders miss) and as today, April 11th, I think he's the pick @19
