Bryce could have just as easily called a timeout there as Frank.

but what stopped Frank from doing it? We all know that BY is a rookie. so mistakes happen.

Exactly. Any other non-franchise, or late round rookie may be scared to do something the coach doesnt tell them to, but someone you gave up so much for and a #1 overall shouldnt.

That falls on the HC. Clock management. Not on a rookie QB.

The worst part about Frank is he has that Fox Rivera demeanor where he doesn’t seem to care and every question about concerns of any sort are answered in platitudes.

When the rookie is a #1 overall QB that you mortgaged your future on, its both.

He had zero itch to get to the LOS and spike the ball or call a TO.  Did the minicomputer forget the urgency of a two minute drill?

Everyone having a good time?

Should have stuck to Wilks. 

Should have hired one of the up and coming OCs instead of Wilks or Reich

Somebody in the press needs to ask:  Frank what the actual fug were you thinking at the end of the half?  Also what the actual fug with the runs up the middle and WR screens when they clearly don’t work

Why the hell would we trade for a WR now? To throw Screens to them??? Frank and Fitterer have no clue 

my assumption is the receivers we are looking at would turn those screens into scores. Players like Higgins, Samuel, Waddle and Brown come to mind

Remember when maestro Bryce was gonna carve up this awful Vikings D? 

[Wundrbread33]

I’m not sure Bryce has the arm to push the ball down field, and he’s playing like he believes that too.

Games with Bryce, hardly any down the field shots.  With Dalton, the playbook opened up.  All of a sudden the playbook shrank again with Young back.

When Young goes "kill, kill, kill", is he not changing the play?

Anybody but a retread old head coach would have been ideal. NFL has passed him by.
