He IS old. He turned 34 early this season. Still a good player, could probably still be elite, but he's just not a #1 target anymore. He's in the Thielen situation. Still good, but no longer up to the role his offense needs him to play because other guys just haven't stepped up. It ain't their fault. Father Time is undefeated.

Tom Brady is just about the only one to defy him but even he finally hung it up (before putting up a total crap show season)

It could happen if he goes to a stacked D where he could play less snaps and focus more on simply rushing the passer. We need him to be an every down jack of all trades and he just ain't it. He's a one trick pony but in the right situation it'd be a helluva trick.

Agreed that was kind of my thoughts on it.

QB is not comparable to playing an actual position in the NFL.

Yeah, injuries not withstanding QBs can play longer than pretty much other position outside of kicker, punter, and long snapper. Elite QBs are practically expected to play at a high level well I to their late 30s now. You definitely don't expect that out of any other positions outside of the aforementioned specialists.

      We looked like a competent NFL team PIE thread

      By Prowler2k18 · Posted

      We could easily pick apart yesterday’s game: dropped passes, blown coverages, bad tackling and red zone issues to name a few. But it was clear that this wasn’t the same team from earlier in the season. They fought back and hung with the champs until the end. That’s what I was excited to see and it gives me hope that we’re on the right track.

      Bryce developing before our eyes

      By Pejorative Miscreant · Posted

      I think BY played well today and exceeded expectations. I will temper future expectations as he has to string together many games of consistent quality. One game doesn’t convince me that he is a franchise QB or even a guy you want to stick with for another season. One game doesn’t erase all the negative play and limitations from the past couple of years. I hope he balls out and continues to get better but for me the verdict is still out   That said, I think he gave the team and fans hope yesterday which is a lot more than what we had when we woke up Sunday morning.

      Bryce Young - Good and Bad, what say you?

      By Ricky Prickles · Posted

      He was vastly improved today and we need to see more of Bryce the rest of the season to continue evaluate him in order to decide what the heck to do with him at the end of the season. He must play at least like this and improve more from here the rest of the season in order for me to keep him. No more 123 yard passing games and want to see at least this output weekly from him. If this is Bruce improving slowly over time then Canales is even better with developing QB's than I thought he was but still too early to tell and we need to see him the rest of the way as he has at very least earned back the starting gig moving forward.
