I hope Bryce is only out a week, we have a winning team and he had a chance to prove he can beat a team like the Bills or Packers. the team needs to completely evaluate him before making a contract decision. I can tell you they're already leaning towards picking up his option but this will muddy that evaluation process. 

I also wish we drafted a late round rookie QB to come in instead of Dalton.

If the team was leaning towards picking up his option before this, then we need to fire everyone right now, not tomorrow, not after the season, but today.

I don't care if you think he still has it in him to turn into a quality QB, that's a totally separate discussion to what he's actually done on the field.  And he hasn't done a single thing on the field to warrant leaning in that direction yet.

You don't pay $27 million dollars for that, it's just crazy.  

At best you can say he's done enough to warrant starting the rest of the season to make that determination, and even that I don't agree with, I think he's done enough to prove he's not the guy and the decision should already be made not to pick it up, even if you bring him back next year (which I also don't want to do but that's besides the point here).

Team hasn't ruled him out, he's listed as day to day. 

I am betting that is just a tactical formality. Don’t give up  anything until you have to.
This is the worst case we were  afraid could happen last year, in his original ‘prove it no excuses’ season. 
Like, leaving the question at least partially unresolved. 
We are in danger of that now if he misses significant time.

If they're trading for a QB from the Giants it's not gonna be Winston 

Trading for Wilson would be beyond dumb, and I'm not even talking about anything from a football standpoint.

If there is one thing we've done really well this year, is that we've actually turned around the culture in the locker room.  No matter what you think about the players or coaches in games, it's undeniable that this is the most up beat and cohesive locker room we've seen since the Cam days.

You don't insert someone like Wilson into that.  Someone who is more known for being disliked by his teammates than liked by them.

I wouldn't trade for either. Just stating that Canales has history with Wikson if they were gonna make a move. I'd kick the tyres on Cam so he can retire a Panther

He was also demoted after the 2021 season, Wilson’s last in Seattle.

also Wilson is completely washed, the game agains the cowboys not withstanding.

That experience with him could also be why we'd never trade for him as well.

Canales trying to act like there is a chance of him playing this week to make the Bills plan for Dalton and Bryce. He’s going to change up some plays this week. Run, run, run, and play action deep pass. 
 

Bryce probably sits this week and next week at Green Bay and comes back against New Orleans or Atlanta

they definitely are. I remember hearing Canales talking about how "we know we have our QB" after the way he finished last season. he hasn't done enough to lose that praise in their eyes and now we have to pause evaluation. unless he shids the bed when he comes back, his 200 yd, 2 td 1 int games playing .500 ball will get him a contract with us.

That wouldn't surprise me at all sadly to say. I guess it will take finishing with a top 3 pick to get a new starter. Young is going to earn his coach killer reputation after Canales falls victim.

      Derrick Brown appreciation thread.

      By TD alt · Posted

      Derrick Brown was one player I never called or even suggested was a bust . Dude was young and hadn't even hit his stride. It takes time to learn the position. The thing I appreciated about him is that he kept improving season after season. He got paid and keeps on going like the Energizer Bunny.

      How many teams coddle their QB the way Bryce has been coddled? I have never seen any other team in the NFL EVER baby a QB the way that Bryce has been.  Bryce was named day 1 starter his first year. It was obvious he didnt deserve it. He wasnt ready as evidenced by the worst rookie year in NFL history.  So let's move to year 2. He's named starter again with no competition in TC and is benched 2 games later. We have the ghost of a backup in Dalton who is so bad he can only beat Vegas and let's remember, the only reason he lost his starting job was a car accident, not because Bryce actually beat him out in practice.  And year 3. We sign Dalton again, who already proved he couldn't be depended on to put an even remotely passable performance on the field, and bring back Jack Plummer, who was even worse than last year. It was obvious he was nothing more than a pretend body in an attempt to create an illusion of some type of attempt to find a backup.  Then we start again with garbage play again and Bryce gets benched with a phantom injury, and the ghost of the ghost of Dalton breaks his thumb on the first drive and craps the field all over again. If we had actually made an attempt to find a legitimate QB2, it's possible Bryce doesn't step on the field again. Bryce is not agood QB and if we had any other mediocre QB, our record would be the same or better.  Bryce is not entrenched. He's been placed, protected and sheltered from ever having to face a  real QB competition in TC. Richardson and Levis both were ass and both were benched and eventually replaced.  Do I expect Baker to face competition in camp? Sure. I expect Tampa to find the best QB2 they can at price that fits their cap and resources and system and get him up to speed. If he's better than Baker, and if he's better by a significant margin, that's best for the team. The ultimate goal is a Super Bowl. Bellichek was constantly getting QB2s with the GOAT as his starter. He knew the value and that was realized when Cassell led them to an 11-5 record as a backup.  You and I may think differently than the people that matter but I will say it again. If you're afraid to bring in a capable backup, especially after the debacle of last year. The starting role wasn't earned, it was given, and that's loser mentality.

      I would have done the same thing.  LSU is a much better job than Ole Miss.  Plus the enormous contract and every advantage a college team can offer in terms of recruiting and facilities and tradition etc
