Some good information but,  the commentators are very dry.

Also fall into the trap of just wanting to surround Young with all the talent in the world.

Disappointed we took Lee Hunter instead of ANOTHER skill guy. Y'know, on our DLine that was crying out for an injection of talent.

If they are part of the 1st round TE/WR lobby, glad I didn’t watch it.  I just get irritated with it.

Since we drafted Bryce we have...

Drafted two 1st round WRs including a top 10 pick. Drafted two 1st round OTs including a top 10 pick. Signed two huge money OGs. Drafted another 3rd round WR. Signed a RB to a top 10 RB contract at the time.

And people really want to talked about how we haven't done enough to surround this guy with talent? GTFOH...

We need to draft a 1st round QB and see how Bryce reacts.  No more coddling, give him some competition.

Sink or swim.

Chuba too right? 
 

But somehow the general point that he has been an asset pit 

Most bitched for years the team didnt give Newton enough assets. Giving a young qb assets is not the problem. Its that hes not that good.

If we use a premium resource like a 1st on a QB it wont be to see how Bryce reacts.  It will be to replace him.

Highest amount of OL salary cap in the league too.

The Chiefs are behind us at 2 but we are ahead of them by a cool $23 million.

Will it make him grow a few inches and get a NFL level arm?

That’s the point.  But he’ll still be under contract that year, so the rookie isn’t forced to start immediately.

When the boos come and the “Bench Bryce” chatter starts, it becomes obvious there is no new contract.

    • He doesn't seem good enough to justify the risk 
    • In that case its in his best interest to fully recover.  We are in a much better situation to judge his condition. It would be more risky for another team to throw money at him.  Taking a reasonable deal from us seems the most likely outcome if he is on track to return.
    • Looks like we're fifth in running plays/play action plays when in the lead and about 10th in the league when we fall behind.  The biggest thing I take from this is not that we drop off like that, because every team does, but that we drop off so much. A lot of the best teams don't  drop off much, depending on the game situation, preferring to stick to their game plan through out. Some of those are very good teams. Baltimore barely deviates from their run/action heavy plan. At the other end, KC also barely deviates, but they have one of the least run oriented attacks in the league by these stats. On the other side, there are teams that make even bigger shifts (based on last year's performance) and they are teams that for various reasons found themselves in desperation attempts. Dallas, Atlanta, the Browns, Bucs and Bengals were all literally throwing out their game plans and trying to either lean on their top end QB or were just frantically trying to create something downfield. Considering the years of us completely abandoning the run (oh those Matt Rhule days), maybe we are starting to stabilize. Don't even get me started on the Reich days...
