What is the deal with Plummer?

My biggest concern is how do you evaluate wide receivers

Route running, separation, blocking. Basically everything but catching. 

I think Dalton would have received a lot of reps had he not been injured/recovering. I don’t get why Luton didn’t get more reps than Plummer. He has shown to be a better choice for QB3 if we even keep 3.

Especially when there's a guy on the bench that's looked better in the very limited action he's had.  You can disrespect the fans all you want by playing whoever.  That's the team's prerogative, and I don't really care.  But damn these guys are out there trying to make plays and get good stuff on film, and this dude is not even practice squad level.  It's wild.

This is my only answer I can come up with to your question.

He is terrible, why does he keep getting all the preseason reps?

Reverse psychology tactic.  Plummer's level of suckitude will make Young look like a Patrick Mahomes in comparison.  Masterful psy-ops by the front office.

Likely because he knows the calls better than Luton as he's been here longer. He showed his knowledge of the offense a little bit with how he got Dillon Johnson lined up in the second half.

I'd be surprised if he makes the PS tho. Lot of QBs out there about to get cut and the Panthers will likely want a QB3 they believe they can depend on.

    • 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
    • This KC team isn't the juggernaut it once was.  How many one score games have they won this season?  How many of those one score wins would probably have been loses if Mahomes wasn't the QB?  Their secondary is vulnerable and it was obvious today.  Grandpa Thielen was able to get open at will all game long. Bryce played well, but thinking this is the exact same KC defense Young was able to move the ball against as last year isn't going to compute.  Last year's KC defense was #2 overall.  They have regressed. I've said it before, Bryce can move the ball before the red zone, but once there, he struggles.  He is not a threat with his legs and the passing windows get much tighter.  He's not turning the ball over, so that is a great place to start and build upon.  I still question much better he can get.  Beyond a game manager?  I highly doubt it.
