It’s beyond time to bench Bryce.

If he's not ready it's because he's never gonna be ready. It's not like he was some raw talent upside pick. His draft value was based on being a plug and play super processor while the knock on him was that he might already be at his physical ceiling based on his talent.

I just don't understand how folks can see it elsewhere, but ignore it at Bama. Guys like Stetson Bennett and Jake Fromm are seen for what they are - really good college QBs who probably won't translate to the NFL and are largely products of the surrounding talent and systems. Yet with Bryce folks convinced themselves that this 5'10" noodle arm was making chicken salad out of chicken poo at Alabama like he was playing at ECU or something. GTFO of here. This dude fooled everyone.

Well, he didn't fool me. I took a lot of heat last off-season for warning that this guy has marginal NFL physical talent.

You either have "IT" and its evident or you don't and its evident....No 5'10 QB in the NFL has been worth a damn....hows that for analytics....but mister money ball is going to try and prove it different... Dipper doesn't even live by the crap he spews...

Wilson was great when things clicked, Flutie had some good years. Tarkenton. Flutie and Kyler and perhaps Wilson are the only legit 5’10’s ever.

Truth is, There has never been a bad 5’10 QB.

Flutie, Kyler, and Bryce are it.

Wilson is actually 5'11...but the other 2 have had less than mediocre careers in the win column.  2 in the last 50 years...analytics man.

Flutie got drafted into a similar situation, fizzled out on the NFL’s worst team, destroyed the CFL and then took the Bills to the playoffs but by then he was old and only had a few good years left in him. 
Kyler isn’t good, but not horrible. 

analytics say Bryce will turn out ok, just not maybe as a Panther

I would. Hell, at least Jameis would let it rip. It'd be something to watch. Beats this boring poo.

Winston could at least randomly throw for 400 yards or have like a 5 TD afternoon.  Even he can offer some false hope.  It’s basically what has kept him employed.  That you might catch that random good day if he was ever called upon. 

[ThrillzforthePils]

  Only thing to look forward to is adding some needed protection and weapons to the team and wait for 2025 for the next qb.  

  Hopefully that comes with Tepper realizing he needs to gtfo and a new gm that is worth a damn….Unfortunately Bryce doesn’t physically have the tools, unless he starts juicing.

yeah 18 points will win a poo ton of games in the NFL these days.  Lucky for us we have this touch down scoring dynamo on our team.

No point in benching him

Not getting him killed is kind of a big deal.

Would also be good to not reinforce any of the bad habits that are building from his being under constant pressure.

No way they'll bench Young. The only remote hope they have left  is Bryce was dealt a horrible hand and that's his only problem. What If Dalton started and won some games. Then he he threw for 250 plus yards and all of the sudden some of the recievers weren't so bad and they put 30 on the board. It would tell everyone what most already know. Tepper would rather lose the rest of the games this year than face those facts.

I think Dalton will start the last two games if there’s no improvement. Bruce had plenty of time to throw today and still had a below average day by his already dreadful standards 

[Ghostofdelhomme]

Steve young was absolutely horrific on the Bucs, but do you wait potentially 5 years for a 10% chance of a hall of fame qb?

[Panthering]

Just draft Spencer rattler so we can watch a rookie actually sling the football would be nice
