In his defense there isn’t much to work with. We were down to Wooten at MLB, Franklin, and Jamison at CB. Some guy named Bootle got a tackle but maybe he was special teams. Oh and the offense turned it over 3 times on the road.

It wasn’t. Late in the 4th on the final drive it was, but we were getting pressure and roughing the passer penalties in the 2nd half.

That’s our only hope for some sort of interest this season. Brown running the offense and Fitt going away.

They got on the Young hype train when we found out he was going to be our pick. Just fans getting pumped about their new QB. Regardless Stroud was the favorite. If Stroud was leaked as the pick his hype would have been even higher as he was the favorite.

The roster/HC doesn’t need another rookie QB. Penix deserves better.

I’m so confused? Reich is currently worse than Rhule. He took Rhule’s team, changed it up and is 0-5. Who cares how he was as a backup QB??

First pick was dumb, but I’ll live with the second one (for a rookie all day). He thought he could drop it over that defender and that doesn’t work in the NFL, but he learned from it. Might as well let him throw and let him make mistakes.

Yeah no one can argue Young over Stroud so far. It’s not even close…

I feel like most wanted Stroud but were ok with Young. A few AR people as well. It wasn’t that close really. Everyone was excited when we traded up thinking it was Stroud.

Pretty much.

I’m pretty sure a majority of the Huddle wanted Stroud. There was a poll and he was the leader by a good margin.

But he CAN throw decent passes. See his 2nd TD. He is physically able to do it. Most of his passes today looked decent from velocity, just two terrible reads on the INTs.

We shouldn’t have trade up and drafted him at one. Go ahead and accept that, but the point is he is showing some progress and who knows maybe he can develop is our future QB. That would be a win we desperately need.

He has 2 very bad ones 1 was terrible. Overall I think he had more good than bad which is progress.

First round QBs are so overrated as I am watching some guy named Mahomes play right now. Overrated...

Yeah that will be called 100% on QBs.

Oh yeah Stroud is legit. That doesn't mean Young can't become a good QB, but Stroud should have been the pick. AR can't stay healthy so I am sold on him yet either.

First one was but the guy landed on him so it was 50/50. Second one nailed him in the facemask and his whole head jerked back. Not sure that one was iffy. It did help having a short QB there!

This will continue. Any progress shown by Young will be dismissed by some of these people. It will eventually turn into well yeah he was the top pick he better be able to make that pass!

The Lions did not relax until that final drive. They continued to score and even got several roughing the passer penalties from their pressure. Campbell isn't a fan or relaxing.

No we are taking our lumps this year. Hopefully Fitt will be replaced with a legit GM who can assemble a decent team with all of our cap space this offseason. Also hopefully we sell of some players like Burns and possible Chinn for some picks.

Lol yeah and he mentioned Ridder carrying a bad team. Poor Ridder with Bijan, London, Pitts and a defense that held their opponent to 19 points. Ridder 744 yards 3 TDs 3 INTs with a 32nd QBR of 28.5 on the season.

Yeah I keep saying let Bryce throw it deep. Let him make INTs and in theory he will learn and grow from it. Check downs and screens don't help him develop. You could literally see it this game. After his 2nd INT he was way more comfortable throwing it 20 yards plus that he has been.

He has Miami next with no CBs on our roster. It could get ugly before the bye week....

@PanthersGOATFan336 You know I wanted Stroud the whole draft process right? I've just been in the wait and see approach with Young this year. He showed he can throw it 20 plus yards with some touch and heat (if needed) this game and scored 3 TDs (last one was in garbage time). He also made some bad rookie mistakes. The play clock dropping to 1 second every other play has to stop. We just have a shell of a roster with injuries and lack of depth. Fitt's seat should be burning hot IMO.
