This Might Be A Blessing in Disguise

The problem is all those bad wins are also going to hurt our draft position in the end to replace him too.

This whole season has gone about as poorly as possible in terms of our long term outlook.

100%. This was always going to be Bryce's make or break year. I either wanted us to suck terribly or Bryce shocks the league and wills us into the playoffs. This is the worst possible outcome. Doing just enough to lose draft position while also giving the Teppers a reason to keep Bryce around.

I'm not crazy about this incoming QB class though. I'd rather us find a vet QB for the time being.

With the way reclamation act QBs are working out our best bang for the buck might be bringing in Sam Howell , Zack Wilson and whomever else off the bargain bin with a mid pick and let them duke it out

I disagree. Making the playoffs would have been enough for the Teppers to make the call to extend him. 

100% it feels like tepperhas been wanting any excuse at all to extend him.  the media makes up new stat categories just to talk about how awrsome he is

I say go sign Cam and just run read option and wildcat with Cam and Dowdle all game. Fug it, can't be worse than this sh*t. 

They would be better. No doubt in my mind this would be a better football team tomorrow with Cam versus Bryce. He hasn't played in years, but he would be better than this. And it probably wouldn't be close.

This team was never contending for a playoff spot with Bryce at QB. I just hate that we were able to limp to a 5-4 record so that they could keep pretending that Bryce was an NFL QB instead of aggressively trying to shop for an NFL caliber QB at the trade deadline. What happened today was very obviously always coming. Teams were always going to eventually wake up and just start completely selling out against the run to force us to have to pass to beat them. It's shocking it took this long.

At some point Rico was going to be stopped and the game was going to be put on Bryce. He just showed us what he is. Is what it is unfortunately.

This^^ Didn't need a crystal ball for this outcome

Don't underestimate how retarded this franchise is under David Tepper.

Hell, I'm not even confident enough to say he STILL won't get extended. It wouldn't surprise me one bit with these dipsh*t owners.

    • Just another 1st round QB that never paid off for the team that drafted them or traded for them. It's been like this since the SB began. 36 QBs have now won the SB & only 13 of them have been 1st rounders winning with their original team. Namath 1968, Griese 1972, Bradshaw 1974, McMahon 1985, Simms 1986, Aikman 1992, Elway 1997, Roethlisberger 2005, P.Manning 2006, E.Manning 2007, Rodgers 2010, Flacco 2012, & Mahomes 2019. Only 3 have taken longer than 5 seasons as the starter to win a SB.  4  6  5  4  6  4  15  2  9  4  3  5  2 [the years it takes for these 1st round QBs] 5  1  4  1  3  1  1  2  3  4  [10 of the 36 have won a chip with their 1st team that haven't been drafted in the 1st round. These are the years it took them as a starter] What stands out? Only 2 of these QBs have lost their first championship appearance. Elway took 4 years as a 1st rounder & Hurts took 2 years as a 2nd rounder. Of the 10 non-1st round QBs, 2 are 2nd rounders, 3 are 3rd rounders, 5 are 6th rounders or later. Please stop wasting time on drafting 1st round QBs with such a high failure rate. The remaining 13 QBs are traded or free agent signings. Stafford, Favre, Young, Williams and Dawson are the 5 trades. Peyton Manning & Tom Brady also won for teams as free agents on a short stay as well as being drafted. The lesson here is don't waste your franchise on farming up 1st rounders for the league, and steer clear of trading for a franchise QB. Stick to finding that championship QB by drafting them outside of the 1st round or through free agency.  
    • I lost most of the respect I had for Fox in 2010. He should have resigned if he hated the job that much. Instead he stuck for his paycheck and let stuff go to hell.    I burned out on Ron too but my deal breaker issue with him was away from football and after he was gone from the Panthers. He may have been out of his depth but never quit on us. 
    • From where they were one year ago to now, pretty incredible. I mean, say what you want about Vrabel he is no Jerrod Mayo.
