Bump this thread every time a beat reporter doesn’t ask about benching or extending Bryce

Only thing I have seen/heard fron guys like Ellis, council, person and Kaye lately is to let things "play out" with the last 5ish games.   Plenty of time to discuss Bryce in the off season.   

 

As if the last 5 games will change anyone's mind.  

“It’s about ethics in sports journalism” etc 

i just don’t understand how the concept of Bryce being benched hasn’t come up AT ALL. How is that an offseason topic?

I remember either newton or Ellis via tweet suggesting he might need to be benched after his second interception against Arizona. He deleted the tweet lmao

Old Darin Gantt would have asked it. God knows Pat Yasinskas would ask it today if they let him within a mile of the stadium.

Like was Bryce’s shoe gala that big of an invite for Sheena that she’s not gonna do her job?

You literally can't go into tank mode in a playoff hunt as a head coach. If that's the decision after we are mathematically eliminated, fine. 

Not sure what it would prove other than it can actually potentially get worse.

Who's tanking?

I'm putting a better QB under Centre.

Mike White isn't a better QB. He is just an extremely unprepared, different bad QB.

I am not against the move but it would look bad internally and externally to basically sign a really, really, REALLY bad street FA QB to start over your entire depth chart at QB in the middle of a "playoff hunt."

I understand the logic of why you would want to see a different terrible QB but I also understand how difficult that would be to do at this point in the season.

After mathematical elimination, it should be "fug it" territory. Start Dowdle at QB for all I care.

We know how this goes, he will have a decent game and everyone will say he just needs more time or more weapons. Then people on twitter will say “my qb is a reaper” while posting 175 yards 1TD 1 INT and we either win in OT by a FG or get killed by 24. Then we repeat the process next week until BY retires.

Mike white could absolutely run this offense. You get the added benefit of being able to play from under center and threaten the whole field.

 

I know people like to say "limited offense" with Bryce but White had a cup of coffee here and hasn't been on an active NFL roster but a few weeks over the past 2-3 seasons. 

He is going to be REALLY limited in what we can call for him.

Social media retards shouldn't have any sway.

You EXPECT your highly paid front office professionals and coaching staff to be able to determine the NFL playing ability of the players on your roster. When that doesn't happen, the problem is very clear and it's not the player.

I'm willing to deploy the Tecmo Super Bowl playbook to give it a shot.

    • Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
