Bryce Young benched

Mistake. I’ve known he is a bust since early last season but bench him now? Ride him to the #1 pick. That’s the least he can do to pay the franchise back. The QB whisperer did his magic in 2 games??? Maybe he sucks to. This franchise is beyond pathetic.

I was one that said to wait until enough actual games were played before we made any rash judgments...

...but total yikes. I was not expecting this level of flat-out poor play. You're not getting me to play devil's advocate on the benching because I can't stomach another awful offensive performance. Or at least, I really hope a switch makes a meaningful difference.

Too early to say this but I'm going to anyways. Ultimately, any and all blame goes to David Tepper.

Maybe now we can win some games!

He is not a wicked witch, he just sucks as an NFL QB. I'm sure you suck as an NFL QB too. Are you a witch as well?

That does it, a round of sucks for everyone. And don't make it a toothy one either, I hate that......

I don’t want to take a QB in this draft, I want the #1 pick so we can hopefully trade back 5 spots or so and pick up additional draft assets to fill all those holes

Definitely don't want to reach for a QB in this draft - only if there is a consensus #1 pick at QB. 

But, I do feel like this team is lot more rookie ready than last season because of the oline. Hopefully we'll see where they are regarding WR and RB by the end of the season.

You can't destroy the development of other players because you want to keep playing Bryce for the number 1 pick.

We’ve destroyed the development of players for 7 years…I don’t see what 1 more year to try and recoup draft capital is going to hurt. Hell it can’t get worse.

    • 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
