Here's the problem with using stats only. Without the proper context, they're worthless. Example. Bryce throws for 3000 yards and 40 touchdowns. Amazing right until you view the context. Those numbers are generated by 40 75 yard screen passes that go for TDs. Now Bryce threw for 40 air yards on all those plays combined. Was it the receiver or Bryce who was responsible for all those stats? Obviously, this is a completely impossible scenario, but it is exaggerated to illustrate the issue with judging statistics alone. The eye test is a far better qualifier of is he an NFL franchise QB. Is he seeing the field? Is he able to go through his progressions. When the pocket gets squeezed, does he bail out or step up? If the defense stacks 8 in the box to stop the run, is he able to make them pay for it? Can he make the deep throws consistently with accuracy? Right now, he looks like he might be able to be a backup QB. Unless he makes a serious improvement in his overall game, I'm still looking for another franchise QB come off season. -
The full route tree, not the simplified ‘what can Bryce realistically do’. Can he make ALL the throws? -

As a backup to replace Dalton on a 2 year deal for the right low figure price, sure. Worst case scenario, he is a low price backup that doesn't really offer a whole lot. Best case scenario, he actually competes for the starting job with Bryce while we look for the replacement for both. Either way, doesn't really move the needle much, but everything depends on the numbers.
