Mike Kaye’s take

Get a guy that can run play action and has an arm. We’ll be ahead of where we are now week one.

Canales flat out needs a playmaking QB.   Lot of OCs do.  I still say Canales is best paired w/ a Jake Delhomme style QB.  Preferably a smarter and more athletic type.  It fits the tree he comes from.  Downfield gambler.  Type that can make a play when the playcalls just aren't there (Baker did a lot bailing out on 3rd and long). 

My question is who fits that bill in FA or maybe via trade? I’m all for moving on from Bryce now, but trying to figure out who DC would pound the table for.

Geno? Jameis? Lance? 

Lets say they go QB on day 2 in the draft, which QB screams Canales’ MO for success?

I think Geno fits.  Not that I want that. They got history.  He fits the scheme.   It's why he worked in Seattle and only Seattle.  

I also don't think Canales is some QB guru.  I think the NFL is about fit.  He coached in places where the QBs fit the scheme.  He doesn't now. 

I've been hammering the fit mantra since the day we drafted Bryce.  He has never fit anything we have done.  He doesn't fit much.  And you aren't making him fit and work in Frank's or Dave's O.

These soft ass criticisms of little baby dookie shoes is laughable.

Bryce sux asshole, deal with it.

One way or another, there needs to be changes

The best change would be in the ownership department.  You make a lot of valid points, and I agree with you.  I just think Tepper was more behind Bryce than the others

This reads as someone trying to suggest changes while treading lightly so Daddy Tepper doesn’t come down too hard on them.  Because flatly, the problem is Bryce.  I don’t think Canales is a perfect coach, but you can see the limitations in what can be called, what is called, and the amount of times Bryce fugs up plays all by himself.  Someone brought up the bootlegs being useless because there is always a free defender rushing - think about how different that play looks with a 6’2”+ QB with a strong arm and mobility.  I can’t count the number of times Bryce has thrown and missed bc he can’t see, it gets deflected, he chucks it away, or his patented run and fumble just on bootlegs and roll outs.  By percentage of those plays per player I have ever watched, Bryce has more negative plays WITHOUT A fuging DOUBT than anyone I have ever watched before.  Like an uncanny ability to fug up the simplest of things.  I have never seen anything like it.  And then, as I mentioned in the other thread, when you string those seemingly one-off plays together, and those stack over the course of a game, poo looks really disjointed.  It is Bryce.  Enough of this nebulous ass “something’s afoot!” bullshit.

We're talking about a #1 overall pick 40+ games into his career on his second coaching staff. There's a reason everyone in the local media walks on egg shells with any remote level of Bryce Young criticism. David Tepper would probably see to it their press credentials with the team were revoked if not.
