We're kind of stuck in the situation.  I would brace yourselves for a Cardinals/Jags type path the next few seasons.

We're not stuck.

Stuck is when the guy shows just enough to keep faith with him.

We're way beyond that point. Move. On.

I mean, I don't think there is much chance of a "competition" anyway.

He is either gonna be the guy or they are gonna move on from him.

That's what I was referencing in the comment about John Fox. 

Not a single one of us believed that Rodney Peete actually beat out anyone in a true competition. It was all just bullsh-t lip service from John Fox. Week 1 proved it... definitively.

Mind you, I don't think Canales would necessarily go that route. He'd likely just say "Bryce is the starter" and leave it at that.

I might agree.

But as long as the coaches don't, then yes, we're "stuck"

He has been that guy the whole time, TBH.

Proved it several times previously.

I know he's been cagey in certain situations (I expect that) but I don't see him running a full on, phony "competition" like Fox did.
