I would say his play today was average by nfl standards. I’m factoring the defense he played against.

Definitely better than the abomination that was the first few games.

He needs to be consistent and better to be worth keeping though.

This is the 2nd most yards they've allowed to 1 QB all season. Lamar got them for 273 in a loss. He also ran all over them. But he's a different animal.

 I dont think its matter of if bryce can step on a field and play pro ball at this point. Can he be good? Can he be elite? That's another questionable discussion that only a bryce stan wouldn't entertain. On a list of options he is still last for me. If I'm starting a team and I get to choose from him Sanders, ward, or maybe stroud. He is still at the bottom.

Interesting. Thanks. Maybe there is real hope.

With the game on the line over two drives, Bruce threw it away on a must make third down, threw a couple bailout DPIs, and completed clutch handoffs. 

finally reached the elusive 7 ypa threshold 

Dude, I hate Bryce as much as the next guy (mainly because I wanted stroud), but saying he got bailed out on that DPI when he did a great job sidestepping pressure and saw theilen open is ridiculous. Correct read, good throw, and DB had no chance but to DPI or give up a TD.

I think most of us can realize Bryce had his either 2nd best or best game of his career today and let's hope it's the beginning of something

This is realistically the second time he has had a "this is his best game as a pro" moment in nearly two full seasons. That's the definition of an anomaly until we see more of a sample size in the remaining games. We aren't even in Kyle Allen territory yet in terms of sample size.

But to his credit he is showing improvement as a passer within the structure of his game. The issue is can he ever be that kind of QB who will elevate those around him instead of needing everything to go perfectly to just throw for more than one or two touchdowns or lead his offense to 30 or more points? He's done that once in his career so far. And at the end of the day we still only put up 7 points on the board from the passing game today. The team as a whole came to play. That's progress from Canales. That's my biggest takeaway.

He absolutely had the best game of his career, and until the refs game thing drive it still netted 19 points, which is basically what he’s done his entire career.

if you just want to be helpful about an aberration and think it means he’s going to turn into something resembling what the panthers gave up for him, cool. But I’ve got his whole career backing up how I feel about him. Bryce defenders have one game and narratives.

I WANT him to throw the ball up to get PI calls instead of throwing it out of bounds lol. That's the whole point of not throwing it away when you have the option

He did throw the ball up multiple times?

I will give the kid credit. He looked much better today and is finally starting to get it (I hope).

If he can improve the rest of the season, it will allow them to stack the defense in FA and the draft.

    • I don't really like the phrase, "moral victory". I get what's meant by it, but does that mean that if you do the opposite (play poorly but win) it's an immoral victory? 🤔
    • I blame Evero because he is overrated. Vance Joseph created the defense in Denver that he took credit for. Wilks ran the ball down his throat and Darnold had a 103.8 rtg.  Last year we were decent in yards allowed, and horrible in everything else. Only reason? We kept giving up good field position.  He's had his choice of players to bring in since his scheme is so "complicated." Maybe he should stop trying to be so fancy like running Cover 4 on 3rd and 1 earlier and focus on fundamentals like tackling. These years of Eric Washington, Phil Snow, and Evero must have gotten you confused on what a real defense looked like. Go back and watch the McDermott and Wilks years- this dude is sofT.
    • I tried to make it a point in the opening post that I don't think the offense is a finished product. I think we still need more talent at WR, better play calling, catch more consistently, elimate ridiculous penalties,  and be more consistency in scoring points. I'm just saying, they look markedly better than last year imo. They have scored 20 or more in 6 games and 30 or more in 2 games. And that's particularly notable considering they only mustered 10 points and 3 points in first 2 games of this year and they got blanked on 0 points two games in a row to wrap up last season . I'd say that's a market improvement.  I'm not crowning them and saying we have a top 10 offense or anything.  I'm comparing them to themselves in recent history.
