Agreed. I think Canales's primary objective in everything he does is to make the team better. I don't think he has any particular attachment to Bryce. He was brought in, in part, to give Young every chance to succeed. And despite assertions to the contrary, Bryce has improved. Whether he improves enough to keep him after this season depends on a number of factors, but I don't think Canales would hesitate to upgrade if he saw a chance to improve at QB. For example, I think if Bryce struggles this year, but the rest of the team performs well, I wouldn't be the least bit surprised to see us take a qb in the first or second round.

the team has gotten better every year that Canales has been here. The thought that he might be fired is just social media gibberish.

Correction, meant to say Seattle had a limited passing attack in the SB. Darnold did do enough to win.

Over the last couple of years, the league has tended towards dominant defensive teams winning the SB, with both winning teams shutting out the other team in the first half. So I am ok with building a dominant defense. For all the talk about Darnold, Seattle essentially had no passing attack in the SB, but it didn't matter.

Given the lack of respect for the Bleacher Report here, I would think this would be a good thing. Fwiw, we have won more games than they predicted each of the last two years, so maybe it is a good thing.

Just make throws when he needs to, and win games. That is all.

Players don't make the playoffs. Teams do.

Yeah, I understood that. I would have just said it different. Trivial thing I know but it was early in the morning when I posted that.

The news story on it this morning was a little confusing. Out indefinitely, but will likely play this season. So its not really indefinitely.

Fixed it for you.

His third year was worse than Bryce's third year, significantly so. And he had a game where he threw for 120 yards, two inteceptions, and had a fumble. He had multiple games where he threw for more int's than td's.

Fwiw, our schedule was middle of the pack last year. Mainly because our division was so bad. Against teams that made the playoffs, we were 2-4. Not great, but not horrible. With a below average defense, and an offense that had the youngest group of pass catchers and pass throwers in the NFL, its probably slightly better than expected. One thing I would like to see this year is that we don't start the season in a hole. It would be nice to be at least 2-2 after the first 4 games.

I think the Eagles and maybe the Bears take a step back this year, and aren't going to be as good as forecast.

The Jags were one of the best teams in the NFL last year.

The Superbowl winning qb from this past season was horrible his third year. Significantly worse than Bryce.
