Or as a coaching staff. Canales literally benched him 2 games into his tenure. I think this coddling narrative is a little overblown. And how good is a FA that's sitting at home not on a team, or being waived in the offseason? Probably not as good as we're thinking. 

Canales was basically forced to act. Thielen and Johnson were pitching public fits. Who knows what was happening in the locker room when that is happening in full view. 
 

It really does appear that they sheltered him from competition.

Top 11 QBs getting paid, male more than 50 million a year. 

Bryce's 5th year option looks like a deal at only 25 million.  

Picking.up his 5th year is a no trainer for the franchise.

Most of those QBs got their extension following year 3 of their rookie deal. Lamar is the only one that played on his 5th year. No guarantee Bryce or his agent would agree to the option based on what’s happened with other QBs.

Not a great comparison. You could likely enter every pro golf tournament for a decade and not demonstrate pro-caliber ability.

Bryce has demonstrated that he is capable of playing QB in the NFL at a high level; he just hasn't demonstrated that he can do it consistently.

I have to disagree with your statement that Bryce has proven he’s capable of playing at a high level. He’s done it maybe 2-3 times out if 30+ games, so they are outliers until he does it a couple of times. 
And maybe we grade differently, imo the game against the Rams was far from great. I loved the two 4th down conversions, but the rest of the game was meh. Kyle Allen and a lot of other backups have also had a few good games. But that is not enough to prove you belong.

this is what people dont seem to realize pull up kyle allen matt moore tyler heinecki stats they are better than byoungs but everyone says he is great and they all sucked.  young has had a few good games but the young that shows up 95% of the time is 150 passing and an int and a fumble and a td either rushing or passing...not the worse qb in the nfl but somewhere between 20th and 28th.
