someone with a strong enough arm to play football outdoors. 

Bryce Young has 39 NFL starts.  

He has just 7 games indoors.  

In those 7 games, they contain 83% of his starts where he threw for more than 2 TDs (so every game but 1 was indoors) and 53% of his 200+ yard games as a passer. 

Surely the front office knows this.   Jesus that's awful

Great find on this, rough to see it laid out like that. Now we know why he plays so well against ATL.

as much as I like to bash David Tepper, I am of the belief the QB issue is rooted with the folks Tepper employs to make those actual calls/decisions.   With both his pro teams.  He might want to put the final stamp on things but he is doing it all off the sales job they do on their decisions.  The Bryce folks never left.  Fitterer simply got fired because of the collective mess and embarrassment that went down.  

Morgan went into this season because Morgan (part of the team that brought us Bryce)......still believed.  And orchestrated a shame QB room to keep him safe.  And Morgan refused to trade Bryce and allowed the comeback when the national consensus after Dave benched and moved on from him 2 weeks into his era......was to trade him.  Because that is what teams do when they dump a QB like Bryce in that fashion. 

Nothing we can do about Tepper.   And I think Tepper has reached a point where he is overblamed.   I think the biggest issue on Bryce and why we went into this season with a shame QB room......is Dan Morgan and his team.

I suspect we know the direction by mid January

I disagree. I think he is not blamed enough.

The one thing ex-players and coaches(across all sports) consistently talk about is how important good ownership is for franchise success.

Of the overall fault, more than 95% lays at Tepper's feet.

These are all the people he selected fuging this all up.

    • As a general optimist who tries to be even handed, I was in the “I have hope” but it’s now gone category.  I acknowledged that the bad games were more frequent than the OK ones which were in turn more frequent than the good ones. I just held out hope that he could put things together and more consistently perform at those mid and higher levels. But I’m off that train now. I think he can probably improve his consistency a bit from where he is, but it’ll never be good enough. He’s on the roster next year because he’s under contract, but I don’t think we should pick up his 5th year option and definitely not extend him. He may start next year too because there genuinely are not as many competent QBs as there are starting spots in the league, so the alternatives are all trash. But we’ve got to get fresh blood in the QB room and find our next starter. 
    • Dalton was signed to a 2 year contract. That's not done just for preseason. Bryce is in year 3. He doesn't need a mentor. He needs a push. Dalton was here to protect Bryce through the remainder of his contract, minus the 5th year. Bryce has been shielded from threat. Plummer was nothing but camp fodder in his 2nd year, terrible to the point he should have been churned in week 2 or 3 of preseason, but we bring him back year 3 and low and behold, he still sucks. No real number 2 or attempt to get one. No rookie QB. Give Bryce everything he needs and keep him comfortable has been the strategy for 2 years hoping to improve on the disaster that was his rookie season.  It's still a disaster. 
    • Canales biggest problem is himself. He cannot figure out what the average Huddler can. We ran the ball to substantially above average success against the 49ers but then continued to call pass play after pass play for a bad QB. The overall fault of the offensive struggling fall far more into Canales lap than even Bryce's. How many times has he continued to do the exact same thing? Go away from something working for unknown reasons?
