Him being gone next year is a possibility if the franchise deems he is beyond repair and they attempt to garner some sort od return assets. I don't view this as very likely at all. The remaining games will determine his 5th year option, IMO. Even if we are lukewarm on him, we are likely to keep him on the roster next year.

I mean...the short answer is many. He is squarely a bottom 10% starter or top third of the pack #2 QB statistically. We all hope that changes but the career speaks for itself. He has been dramatically below NFL average.

This is about as incorrect as possible. Are you familiar with his career SO stats?

Yeah, I mean he was not special in very, very, VERY favorable circumstances in college and he has not really looked like anything more than a JAG here. It's possible that changes but it's not really important as a lower round pick. If he becomes a competent returner then the pick was worthwhile.

Which is kind of funny considering how much less talent there is on the defensive side of the ball in comparison.

We can't regain the massive amount of resources we utlitized to obtain him. He is worth an infinitesimally small fraction of that now. So, the only positive outcome possible is for him to figure it out. We definitely need that to be the case. I don't believe it will happen as a guy that had Bryce #1 on my QB list. But I would damn sure be here for it.

Even though that result kind of sucked, it was a hell of an effort to preserve that point on the road against the best goaltender we have faced.

We are 19-18 in SO's under Rod.

Jarvis is not the guy, never has been.

There was no chance we were getting one past that guy one on one.

Whelp. Got the point.

Preserved the point!

Keep whooping on this goalie. He will crack.

fug yeS! BLAKE

Goddamn. That was our goal right there.

Also, we really haven't been able to generate high quality chances.

I have often thought this season, "Our PP couldn't possibly get any worse." They really prove me wrong a lot.

First goal was not on Freddie. Just a bad deflection. Second goal really wasn't as much him as the lightspeed retarded TO.

What the actual fug, Aho.

Will they fuging switch coverage. JFC

I don't think he will ever be more than a 3rd RB/special teams guy. If we move on from Dowdle, we should definitely sign or draft a good NFL caliber RB.

It's hard to lay blame. We never know the full details. Either way, no point in blame now. The damage is done.

There isn't anything wrong with the stat itself. The fault is people's interpretations and how they use them.

New Orleans and Atlanta were some of the worst rush defenses too Everyone is just selling out as hard as possible because of how bad Bryce Young has been. If the team wants to open it back up at the LOS, it's going to take Bryce taking what they give him week in and week out. Case on point, after that insane performance Sunday, his game CPOE was -0.7%. Translation: He basically took the opportunities given to him. He wasn't threading it into tight windows or making bananas throws. He was just simply taking advantage of the Falcons lack of faith in his ability to throw. That has to continue.
