I think knowing what we know now we have to give an honest assessment that last year really didn't give him much of a chance to develop all around. I'm not arguing he's arrived I'm simply pointing out he looks capable which he really didn't last season for a number of circumstances many of which were beyond his control.

What exactly are you taking issue with here?

Will you look at Mingo looks pretty good with a real QB.

Shiiiiiit I might get one too.

Diontae touchdown! Canales is showing precisely why we hired him. So happy right now.

XL getting in on the action look at that! Beautiful.

That 3rd and 14 play is all the proof you need to see of the difference behind center

Ick kinda sucks

This defense is ehhhhh. We're still gonna get a top 5 pick ya'll don't worry.

This whole team simply looks rejuvenated. Like a weight has been lifted. I love it.

League sources said a 4th. Take it and run.

At this point I've seen enough. Get what you can and move on.

Finally in the end zone!!!!

Russ played baseball same with Kyler. They always had athletic ability. Quite literally does Bryce Young have any athleticism at all? Not trying to be mean just being real. Never should have drafted a QB that small in the first place let alone one lacking any and all athleticism. The reason this wasn't a frequent source of discussion before the draft is because he played for Alabama. I cannot understate how much that effect had on the way he was so favorably evaluated to the rest of the quarterback class. It's that simple.

Baker and the Bucs getting blown out.

Darnold looks pretty good no lie. But if you know him you know to let the full season play out....

How about let's not even put that juju out there. At this point I don't even think you should play Young if that were to happen. Just play Plummer and keep it pushing.

There's no reason to be in a hurry about this. Take your time see how the team responds today and go from there. But Bryce himself needs to be responding appropriately and actually work on improving his fundamentals and leading by example not showing up having barely done anything. The team is clearly over that and ready to be led by someone that actually wants to compete at the highest level.

We've fired one head coach and an entire offensive staff over Bryce already. And we only got to see that staff with a different QB in one singular game. It's perfectly fine people are willing to give Canales at least a few games with a QB who is willing to make all the throws at the very least. As far as preseason goes yes many people were critical of sitting the starters the way we did. But with what we know now it looks like the coach was trying to protect Bryce's confidence. Let's think about it for a second. Bryce had been struggling throughout camp against our defense. The same defense that has been getting lit up by what 60 points in 2 games? Do you really think Canales and the staff didn't see Bryce's struggles on the horizon? They'd been seeing it all camp. Let's see how Canales and the staff do today and go from there. K? Cool!

The fact this exists is really random but pretty cool even though our franchise is dogshit. As for the bet... Live your best life. F*ck it.

There is some conflicting information out there right now. I think the org is wanting to see how the team responds Sunday and proceed forward from there. Which makes sense. That being said the worst thing they can do is be indecisive after making this move. The locker room is upbeat. Everything going forward now should be about the development of our young roster in what looks to assuredly be another losing season because fans are beyond tired of this neverending cycle.

I might not entirely agree with 89 on the subject but at least he is being blunt about what he's seeing and not just tripling down on his original position by blaming every single thing around Young.

Unfortunately the current GM was practically in Fitterer's hip pocket through all that.

Xavier Legette flatly and enthusiastically stated when asked what he's looking forward to with Andy Dalton...."the deep ball". If that doesn't sum it up for folks nothing will. They are dug in and cannot he convinced.
