My response to pretty much everybody who's talking about "competition"

It ain't happenin' next year 😕

It could happen the following season, but only if Bryce has a bad fourth year.

So if you're pinning any hope whatsoever on any potential QB competition for the 2026 season? Well, sorry but...

I just don't get this at all. Literally almost any vet they sign would be competition.

I don't know what his status is next year. 

I know he got better coaching from somebody other than Matt Rhule after he left us, but if I remember correctly his playoff performance last season was... less than stellar. 

No, no, no.

I don't mean bring him back. I just mean another wild gunslinger with poor decision making and a penchant for a ton of turnovers.

He's with the Eagles. 

I knew he was with the Vikings in PS but didn't realize they had kept him and then traded him.

Also, as to why he might not be playing:

"Increasingly well traveled, Howell sat out Minnesota's preseason finale. He ended August with 118 passing yards and an interception on 12-of-18 passing in the preseason. However, his last appearance in purple was a disaster in which he completed one of his five pass attempts for 13 yards and the aforementioned pick."

For fug sake man, can you read?  Where did I criticize bryce and where did I make excuses for TL?  goddamn 

 

and bryce is in a way better situation.  Better oline, better rbs, better wrs.  What in the holy fug are you watching?

Thats exactly what indicating considering you responded to my comment 

 

Trevor has the better line, weapon and coaches. And defense which gives him better field position

If you are using PFR then you should be able to easily the the dividing league average line.....where Bryce is above and Trevor is below it.  It's a big blank space that says league average when you are sorting by bad throw %. 

You don't really want to go backwards.

Bryce was #1 in bad throw % in 2023

Bryce was #1 in bad throw % in 2024 (technically 2 but #1 was Anthony Richardson and he didn't finish out the season)

in 2023, 2024, 2025.....Bryce is above league average all 3 seasons in bad throw % and Trevor is below all 3 seasons.  

Bryce stans need to find something else than thinking Trevor Lawrence somehow makes Bryce Young not bad.   It's not working.  And no one, even Clemson fans, really want to be in here defending the forever disappointing Trevor Lawrence.  

Again, no one cares about 2023 If they did, everyone would want Kirk Cousins.

As far as he being slightly below average with bad throw, he is. Young's at 17.5% and the average is 16.3%. When you do the math that comes out to be 4 bad throws over 13 games. Statistically insignificant. Certainly not worth trashing a guy over.

And it seems to me it is you trying to use Trevor to make Young look worse. After all, you are the one who claimed Trevor was above average and claimed his struggles this year are from "The Jags skill positions players have been a big let down this year." I'm just responding to your claims.

He's been suggested a few times as someone with the physical skills who was young and could possibly fit the system DC runs. A throw it at the wall and see if he sticks option. 

That I knew. I mistakenly thought he meant someone had brought him up in this thread.

Again, the Bryce stans need to get on the same page.  It was just complained about when I didn’t include 2023 on another discussion and left it out.  Because they wanted to talk about his growth. 

the Bryce stans bring up Trevor, not the haters 

I have never said Trevor is above average lol as a NFL QB.  

but yes, Trevor can be a headache basket case  AND the league leaders in drops can be a big letdown (paired with injury) in a convo where someone calls them great.  They have been hurt and dropping the ball unlike any other team.  Thats not great weapons at your disposal if they are hurt and not catching

      Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      By Khyber53 · Posted

      Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
