    Yup time to trade him for a conditional 7th rounder. Time for the Andy Dalton era baby!

    I think he legit needs to sit and watch and get reset for 2024. His OL and skill players around him are shit and he has no trust in anyone other than Thielen. Build the offense around him this offseason and he’ll look much better in 2024.

    Not yet, but it’s trending that way

    His projection had massive holes in his game that everybody somehow just ignored

    TL;DR: Maybe

    Expectations for rookies to perform immediately are too high. I know it’s fun to see guys like Stroud light it up but that’s the exception. Gotta give these guys more time to develop before putting them in the bust discussion, especially when they’re on a broken offense.

    no. how many incredible QBs took a couple years? it’s the hardest job in football and he was thrown into a terrible situation. (never seen that before…) if things are still bad next year at this time we can have that conversation.

    Anyone who declares “bust” for a rookie after 12 games can be disregarded pretty comfortably in my book.

    It’s been what 12 weeks and all he has is Thieln as his wideout. With a coaching staff that seems to be a miss. They changing play callers every few weeks.

    While he hasn’t been good, the standard rule of headlines is that if the headline is a question, the answer is “no”.

    So he is legally not a bust.

    I don’t think there are many QB’s in the NFL that would do well with that offense. He’s in a terrible situation. The situation he’s in is why guys like Eli Manning, and John Elway did what they did.
