Week 18 after finishing 0-17, that’s rock bottom. Even worse is when it happens again next year.

As much as everyone loves Dalton...we were down 17 to the Seahawks' backups until he put up a garbage time TD. No QB can win with this team.

I thought initially the trade was for Stroud. I do think more now that the whole edict was Nicole wanted Bryce and Dave wasn’t gonna let his piece of ass be disappointed again. That said, the vitriol over Bryce is truly reaching unhealthy levels. Like, it’s OK to blame all your life’s problems on him I guess and make retarded Clausen comparisons (Bryce’s last two games were better than any game Clausen had in his career), but I didn’t expect the Huddle even at its worst to straight up pretend the good plays he makes just didn’t happen, and create ones that Dalton didn’t make (lower YPC than Young). But when you suck, it’s always the QB’s fault. Was that way with Jake, Cam, even Weinke.

I mean it’s not like he enjoys this, and he’s got more people who hate him than support him after 3 games, lol. Cam was miserable after the same time, but he was called a gamer for it. It’s just a double standard, all I was saying is that whichever approach he takes, the argument can and is made that it’s the wrong one.

What would this place be like if he actually got intercepted after week 1

Here’s the issue I have with your third point: it’s damned if he does, and damned if he doesn’t. Because if he comes out and exudes confidence, you’re gonna say “he must think a game like that is all he needs to play. What an idiot.” But if he doesn’t and he falls on the sword, he’s unconfident and broken.

For a sixth overall pick you’d expect at least mediocre pass protection and he doesn’t even come close to that.

I didn’t watch today, just drove home from a trip, took a nap and will enjoy my day regardless. It’s like they don’t exist anymore, and I’m better off operating that way.

It's the third game of his career. He's gonna have a rough day bc Minnesota likes to blitz, we can't block, our WRs don't get open much and they'll just chill out all afternoon 5-15 yards from the LOS. The surprise will be when he plays well against Miami and we lose by a touchdown in one of our closest losses of this winless season.

Shaping up to be another team total of 16 carries for 47 yards like usual

misspelled Ickey but yeah, can't forget that first-down run for a loss of a yard

he'll get some good exercise and have a DB all over him he can talk to

So do the games

I'd also be remiss if I didn't mention the 130-to-190-yard rushing game Minnesota will have

If Dalton starts, it's a get-right game for Minnesota. If Young starts, it's a get-right game for Minnesota. Instead of putting all the eyes on QB performance, let's highlight Mr. 2 YPC himself, Miles Sanders, and his merry band of turnstiles. Young's not gonna throw for 375 yards and 6 TD, sorry. Probably 1 TD, 1 INT. Probably another 12-carry, 30-yard performance from Sanders where one carry goes for 12 yards and the rest are -1 to 1. CATCH THE FEELING

I doubt it, but go off.

I will say that it doesn’t make much difference which QB plays, the coach, OL and defense suck bad enough that no one can win a game with this shitwreck

In football, a 17-point deficit is a 3-score deficit. In the English language, “3+” means “3 or more.” also note that every pass in this garbage-time TD drive that accounted for 75 of those yards was a short throw against Prevent, which is much more impressive than doing it a week ago because reasons

I was only parroting what folks were saying about Young's touchdown drive to cut it to 3. If it doesn't count for one, it doesn't count for the other.

I mean, sure we can -- just maybe try being consistent for once. I thought he looked fine, but we still got obliterated in the second half and out-scored 25-7 til there was a minute left. Don't see you keeping any of this energy when the rookie plays. That's what I mean about not being consistent.

The Huddle loves non-Bryce QBs who put up big yards in garbage time when losing by 3+ scores. Can't wait to see the "Bryce is ROY" threads when he puts up those yards down big to Miami. Jk, it'll be "Bryce sucks, Prevent defense, doesn't count"

The running game perpetually looks like a team that's up big and is just sort of going through the motions to get out of there as soon as possible The problem is that first part is never true, and this vibe persists when losing 7-3 in the second quarter

That wasn't worth celebrating last week, why is it impressive now?

I'm just commenting here bc I got in the Morgan Wallen thread after it got locked and that poo is FUNNY "thank you based Tepper"
