Canales and Mike White

I don't think our offense is gonna look better with anyone else at QB because its way too late.  We're almost halfway through the season.  Nobody's gonna come in and play well in a few weeks.  Not happening.  Not anyone who's actually available. 

Mike White is here to be a warm body in case Andy dies this week.

So you guys are pining over Hendon Hooker and fuging Mike White???

That's insane. Literally.

All of us want better and hope that happens but asking to watch 3 incomplete 40+ yard passes a game while getting blasted by 20+ points is not the sort of panacea I think any reasonable fan wants to witness.

I'd rather limp along with that anchor in Bryce Young than watch the rebirth of the Wienkie/Clausen eras, thanks. At least until something actually, REALLY better comes along.

Jesus Christ. Some of you guys might need to take a break from the NFL for a while if this is the type of poo in your heads.

We have been abused for 2.5 years.

General tone of the thread. Probably shouldn't have quoted you directly.

Not to mention, this White kid has a career 6.8 Yds IAY. Bryce is 7.7. That is not even an upgrade in targets down the field. It's literally a downgrade.

If Bryce Young didn't have a higher YPA than a practice squad QB after throwing the ball 811 more times he would be the worst QB in NFL history.

I mean, brother it's been more like 7.5 years. Ain't poo changed.

 

I was there for it.I don’t disagree that Tepper is the real villain.
 

This last 2.5 with Bruce no playing Young and that trade and the stanning and all of it is the nadir. And then they hang him over our heads like we have to watch this poo for more years on a new contract. 
It is why people are anybody but Bryce.

I don't think there are many real Bryce stans just stubborn folks that don't want to go through it all again. But we will. IMO, the writing is on the wall. 

Bryce may improve but he isn't gonna be a franchise caliber QB.

The scope of the limitations is so far beyond long bombs. Nobody here is clamoring for us just to run straight up go routes on repeat. There are crucial throws defenses know we can't convert such as down the sideline that almost always result in either the ball going several feet over the receivers head out of bounds or the receiver having to leap into the air and make an acrobatic attempt to haul it in or having to completely slow down or stop. It's off the table and defenses know it and sooner or later we were going to walk into another buzzsaw like against the Patriots.

Nobody here is in love with Hendon Hooker or Mike White. It wasn't us who made the decision to ignore the depth of the QB room two years in a row. You can whail at people for discussing it all you want. If you're that triggered by the discussion then call up Dan Morgan and bitch at him about the fact we are having to discuss the likes of Dalton Hooker or White. It isn't our fault. 

Exactly. Thank you.

I appreciate you man but I am about TOO fed up. On no beers and about ready to crack one.

Yeah. I mean there isn't much we can do about it at this point. Just watch it happen and see what comes next.

It is what it is. They should put that on the stadium for all to see because it perfectly sums up the current qb situation for the team.

Yeah and that is the most frustrating part. the owner is a fuging idiot and we are powerless. fuging emasculated which is his thing with the brass balls and the way he operates.

I will say that any pining over Hendon Hooker will end REAL fast when/if he plays.

Pretty clear that Hooker was just brought in to run scout team for weeks we faced a similar style QB. Otherwise White wouldn’t have been here 24 hours after Bryce got hurt. Dudes not even a development project just a mobile chess piece.

Also Mike White obviously won't learn much of the offense in 5 days, but he was with the Bills all season last year so he knows their defense's tendencies.

    • 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
