We’re never gonna have explosive pass plays with Bryce as QB, and it will be tough to get explosive runs because the box is usually stacked bc of Bryce.

I surprisingly disagree here. Last year we had a lot of explosive plays.

Bryce had anticipation and threw WRs open. If someone that guy is somewhere in the sack of poo that Bryce has been this year then we have a shot. But I think it’s maybe a 5% chance at this point.

Explosive diarrhea though, not a problem after watching BY for four quarters.

Cool thanks for sharing. I just don’t understand how beating one of the worst teams in football can save your job.

Even more, I don’t understand how a RB having a career day saves the QBs job.

What you are seeing, I think, is confirmation that he can’t turn it on at will. 

He randomly strings together some impressive plays and then randomly goes back to coach killer. It just sort of happens. I guess he wakes up as good Bryce one day, but then he sleeps again and you don’t know what you’re getting the next morning.

I think it’s worth noting that a lot of those teams that he had “explosive plays” against last season didn’t have much to play for.  It’s bad teams and teams that don’t have much to gain or lose that Bryce flashes occasionally against.  It’s like the Cardinals 2nd half this season.  If there is any sort of pressure or consequence, like if the game matters or the opponent is good or has something to lose, he isn’t worth a poo.

Rico 10000% saved Bryce Young from being benched for the Dallas game.  The way that game was going there was going to be no way to trot Bryce out next week at home if it kept going like it did. 

Bryce probably is safe from bench risk until the next home and home presents itself.    He can’t be playing bad going into that next Atl game and then lay an egg in it.

You took the thought right out of my head. We're a broken-winged offense.

I think the run defense has bordered on great the entire year. If we could stop passes between the hashes, the D could be good

The offense can help them by getting a lead. I mean it was the Falcons but 0 points? That doesn’t happen in the NFL very often.

I know the Falcons shot themselves in the foot multiple ways but the defense played a part in that 0. 
 

The NFL these days, teams are a work in progress for at least the first half of the year. We should see improvement continue for a little while. Throw Luke into any defense it is improved but this one is just waiting for that guy. A guy that could be like, Luke light, Temu Luke,  would be a huge shot in the arm.
