We mortgaged our future with Young, didn’t trade Burns to get him some weapons (Sam LaPorta wen two picks before the Rams 2nd we could have had) and we basically traded CMC for Mingo and DJ Johnson. SF clearly already won that trade and CMC hasn’t even played a full season with them. Heck, I think the Rams won that trade by not making it and the Bears may have a new QB or Marvin Harrison Jr to go with DJ Moore.

Young still has time to develop but could we have screwed the pooch more so far with those trades/non-trade.

Still focusing too much on big names. We need depth. Which needs good coaching. Don’t be a dumb.

I just didn't think he would look like he just couldn't play at this level. It's fuging stunning.

The worst part is that the things you expected him to excel at he has been the worst at. Reading the field, anticipating, decision making, accuracy.....literally all of this has been subpar.

Not directed at you, but just using your post as a springboard in saying that I made up my mind early last season that he was not going to be a starting NFL QB.  Although I didn't necessarily think he would look THIS bad, I am not stunned he looks this dysfunctional.  He was a game manager in college but the stats and image get inflated bc he played for Bama.  I wasn't sure, but was fairly certain he would be mediocre in the pros.  And as a I said at the draft, I did not want him at all...  iwas surprised he remained projected as a first rounder the further the process played out, bc I was sure the more tape that was studied and with his stature, he would fall out of the first round.  And yet, we were the suckers that fell for it, and now we're gonna pay the price for it.  Damn.

I wasn't big on Stroud until the NC Game and I grew to feel AR was the best pro prospect the more I studied each guy...  and honestly, I still think Hooker has a chance to be the best QB from this class once healthy.  AR was my number 1 pick, but I would've taken him, Stroud, or Hooker before I ever even considered Bryce.  This fuging sucks.

Young isn't that bad guys. He needs help, but he isn't a lost cause. 

Reich out here throwing screens to Thielen and Mingo. Meanwhile Laviska has like 1 touch today. Make it make sense.

Abandoned the stack after the first drive even though it was working. Ran a play out of stack again just to have the primary target be away from the stack. Where they do that at?

Slow receivers running the same routes at different levels. No pressure on the defense.

    • NFL Pro has the All-22 up already 😄 Going to grab a play or two from each redzone series to put screenshots to. Looks like AT angled his route off to the near pylon rather than the back corner where Bryce was throwing to. I imagine this is something they'll quickly try to figure out with Thielen back from IR. After watching the All-22 again, this was actually a pretty nifty play. I thought it was a TE screen to Tremble because of the way XL charged the DB, but he quickly shed and kept upfield as seen in the second screenshot. This looks like it had multiple layers built into it with AT running the crosser, XL the fade, Tremble to the flat. The progression would call for the play to go to Chuba here as the LB does follow Tremble out into the flat. Ball hits Chuba low and in the hands, but the LB does a good job disrupting the catch.
    • The bottom lines to me are that a) we played well enough to beat the best team in the league and b) Bryce Young is growing into a bridge QB role (his ceiling) for us. As much as I don't want BY around after the season, it seems DC can still build the O with a game manager at QB for now. Best case scanario, we can build the D through the draft this year and take a QB we have conviction outside the 1st this or next draft. If BY keeps improving, we are going to win a couple more games this year.
    • Bryce has been a completely different QB since coming back. That started in Denver where it was obviously he was playing a lot more loose and willing to push the ball downfield  Bryce continues to build off of the previous weeks performance and that’s what you want to see Bryce has been making some real good anticipation throws. Reading defenses well. Pushing the ball downfield (7 throws of 20+ air yards yesterday. 8 if you want to include PI to Thielen). The deep ball accuracy has been there. Some of Young’s best throws yesterday were incompletions. Sideline balls to XL and Moore both should’ve been caught. RZ dot to Tremble should’ve been caught. And another RZ ball to Moore that Young gave him a chance at. Bryce is starting to execute Canales offense and yesterday Canales finally opened it up a bit. Canales was to blame for the 126 passing yards in Germany as he played a more conservative game.  The next bit I’m looking for his for Young to be a bit more decisive with running the ball. Start putting that on film and it’ll help open things up a tad
