Would anyone else feel comfortable with Anderson starting?

If Cam isn't ready (and he probably won't be), I'd rather let Clausen steer the ship for a season. He continues to develop and we get his value up higher.

We're not contending this season, we're progressing. Sinking time into Anderson is a zero gain, he can counsel from the sideline.

I won't watch

You honestly wouldn't watch your team play? They could put a Bo-Bo the one armed monkey out there at QB and I would still watch every game.

As much as I want Cam to get in there and play if Anderson can help us win games I'm all for it. I'd prefer he stay number 3 though because when it comes time to cut ties with guys we can get more value from Jimmy if he does well. I just want to win and have fun watching it.

He might be the best of the 3 right now.

That's kinda what I was thinking.

I will watch it again and see, and I have not been to training camp, but he does look a little more polished. As he should.

IMO a vet in there until the bye would give Cam and Jimmy some much needed confidence and time. I just don't want to beat up Cam too early, or beat on Jimmy any more than we already have.

Just wonder if 5 games of experience is worth gambling with the psyche.

He has a leg up on Cam and Jimmy because he is a "pro bowler" and veteran but he's had less reps with the starting O-Line than both of them and he was playing last night against third and fourth stringers so I'm reserving judgment on him. He seems like kind of a douche too. But if he plays well against first teamers (which I doubt we'll ever find out since Cam and Jimmy will be splitting those reps) then I'm all for him starting a few weeks.

      Bryce's Achilles Heel Is Not What You Think It Is

      If we divide the league up into quarters you need to be able to make 8 worse starting QBs for him not to be bottom tier. Who are they?

      Bryce's Achilles Heel Is Not What You Think It Is

      It just doesn't add up to what we're watching. It feels like you're trying to convince yourself that Bryce can just make a few adjustments and pan out. You say he turns the ball over because he's over aggressive and I just don't see that. A lot of his turnovers are just bad throws oftentimes because the balls sails in him. The fumble issues? I mean, you have the smallest QB in the NFL getting hit by extremely large powerful kej who knows based on film study that this guy is prone to coughing up the ball. If you're being hit by a much larger, much more powerful man intent on removing the ball from your possession you're gonna lose that battle a decent amount of the time. I think some of it is due to bad footwork but some of it is also that when there's traffic in front of him he has to try to get the ball up and over that pressure due to his lack of height. His release point it just several inches lower than most NFL QBs, no way around it. You saying it's more difficult than simply looking at outcomes while completely leaning on situational stats to try to convince people their eyes are lying to them and Bryce's arm isn't a significantly limiting factor in his game. Some people are hyperbolic about his lack of arm strength but honestly he has one of the weakest arms in the league. That's just reality if you objectively watch him play versus other NFL QBs. If he had time in a clean pocket and can step up into and through his throw he can make most throws but that's the problem, for him to make the tougher throws everything has to go perfect. If there's pressure pushing him off his spot or pressure in front of him where he can't step up or has to try to loft the pass over the scrum it's probably ending in a poor result. The problem is that's a commonplace scenario in the NFL. It wasn't at Alabama. Trust your own QB analytical system. Bryce being very the bottom of the league matches up perfectly with the eye test of just watching him olay

      If he wanted to be as irrelevant as possible in his final year he's achieving it.
