He's had the starting job handed to him for three straight years. If Gardner Minshew had walked through the doors of BoA Stadium last year he'd have taken Young's job and stuffed him in his locker. Mental fortitude.

I mean, he just isn’t a NFL QB and for whatever reason we are doing the Matt Rhule season 3 thing with Bryce. Everyone should know what is coming but here are…..just doing it and wasting everyone’s time for no real good reason. Rhule still had his folks entering that pointless year too. But most knew it was over before it started in reality

Well if you mean coaching or drafting we have both lol. This dude is usually annoying when there isn't much to talk about but I like this little rant on seeing through the current Canales bs lol.

This young man always does a good breakdown. Brought up some interesting things about Canales presser

Only putting in performances worth a damn when your team is eliminated from the playoffs is the antithesis of clutch that 4th down throw away in the red zone? Antithesis of clutch i *want* to be wrong man. Truly do. If you look at my posts I’d argue I was actually one of the more gracious posters on here to Bryce in 23 and 24.

The Huddle: "Off with Bryce Young's head"!!!

Using a stat saying 75% of his passes are at or behind the line of scrimmage. Last year from week 8 to 18, 15% of his passes were over 20 yards. That was 6th in the NFL. His completion rate was 54% on deep throws which was 2nd in the NFL. Help me make that make sense in regards to what you are saying? Fo real.

It's kinda the equivalent of playing on your phone at work when you're supposed to be dialed in and in the moment lol. Even though JJ had a rough start yesterday I was really jealous of how he seemed to not lose composure and obviously locked in during the halftime break and came out in the 2nd half looking like a different guy and a leader. When BY sucks he sucks the whole game every time.

This reads like you would give him an ext or pick up the 5th at a minimum no matter what happens this year. Would that be a true statement?

oof the huddle nail the brooks pick and lol at @PantherChris thats ugly

There's aren't many NFL level scouts and most are just cycled from team to team and have really long careers.

His completion % wasn’t even high. Think OP misstated a stat. Bryce was 30th this week in completion %. The bottom is where he has been every year in the NFL in that department. you gotta dig real deep in analytics to make a Bryce argument

Agreed. Setting protections is one of the more difficult things for an NFL QB to learn but I did see a lot of improvement over the past year. It's still an issue but getting better. Reich hung him out to dry in that aspect and almost got him killed. Once Canales gave him a hot read or option for blitzes and pressure he did much better. The more experience he gets the better he'll get. That's also another good reason to keep a strong oline. Mitigates that a little bit.

I'll just piggy back off what I said earlier here. The problem with Bryce is and has always been his height combined with his arm. The reason he works so well ad-libbing is that he usually gets out of the pocket or allows the offensive line time to open throwing lanes which allows him to see the defense better, and manipulate the defense because of his legs which eliminates the need to read defense mostly. The reason he doesn't work well in structure is because he can't make those reads at the line on what the defense is running and where to move protection, so he doesn't immediately know where to go with the ball based on coverages/ pressures so he runs the play exactly as it's called and goes through normal progressions 1-2-3. He's gotten better at reading just based on Sundays game because he didn't nearly look as bad at it as he did last year and he didn't have AT to set lines and stuff for him.

Once Carr left, things suddenly weren’t as bad. The losing seasons went away starting the first year. And they didn’t bring in Lamar Jackson, it was just an okay Matt Schuab but yeah, logically we are the Carr Texans at this point.

Even Kyle fuging Allen won when the pressure was on. We're still waiting to see Bryce Young not play like utter dogshit in the season opener.

Playing better and winning when the pressure is completely off is not a first overall pick.

Well things the thing, off schedule should be last resort not first thought. QBs need to step up and navigate in the pocket to make reads. When things break down, sure man rock out with your cock out but that shouldnt be a ton during the games

And that right there is exactly why we are where we are. Seems to me that Tepper is too lazy to clean all of them out or he is too comfortable with them

See, this is what I'm talking about. The guy was the first pick in the NFL draft, had a horrible 1st year with little quality coaching, surrounding talent or a defense to lean on. He plays probably the worst football I've seen from a QB in his first two games last year and gets benched. Yet, he mentally never folded. Kept pounding. Became the starter again and played football at a high level. The stats over his last 3 games were very good with some being the very top elite level in the NFL such as 10 TD's to 0 interceptions. The Falcons game was a win and in the playoffs game for the Falcons and was probably Bryce's best game. In almost all of our wins he lead game winning drives. That is clutch. That is some of the strongest mental fortitude a person can have so I really don't know what you're basing this on.

No I told you analytics are horseshit and gave you the reason why that stats misleading.

He works best off schedule and always has. He had that issue at Alabama. Same with reading defenses and setting protections. It's why he led the 2023 QB class in generated pressure in college.

Bryce isn't gonna lean on his athleticism to make himself right. He needs presnap reads and protection adjustments. This team is really young/inexperienced.

Depressing

It’s largely because XL is in the doghouse. It’s like the 3 Renfrow balls. Blaming him is just comically bad takes. Renfrow set Bryce up for 2 big plays….he couldn’t make the throws though and thanked him with a hospital ball. Renfrow won’t last the year. Renfrow while tiny and high IQ… is a baller. He will put his tiny frame out there. Bryce will end his comeback
