Someone will slam me for this, but I've just never thought the guy was as good as the press around him. Like Carson Palmer, everything was about how good he was, what a great passer, master of the game... but just never could push a team into real contention.

He’s not a guy who can carry an offense like a Manning, Rodgers, Brees, etc. by any means. But put him in New England with Belichick and he probably has at least a couple rings. At this point though he’s pretty bad. Rivers and Colts would be an interesting pair.

In a lot of ways, he seemed like a great individual player in a team sport.  Anymore, he is well past his expiration date.

      He's a free agent next year actually. Wish we had the balls to bring him in to compete, looking around the league though he might get a legit starting offer or at least an offer to compete somewhere that he would control his own destiny.

      Bryce is elite at deep throws

      By pantherclaw · Posted

      I don't love Bryce Young.  I DO understand his abilities as a QB. I dont expect him to do things that are beyond that. I also dont hold it against him.  The ability to throw 40 yards in with the velocity to take your receivers hands off, doesn't have the impact on the game as people think it does.  I think it's a pretty silly thing to even attempt to debate, when the ones crying about it doesn't add context.   Bryce can and does throw deep.  His last TD to T-Mac was a thing of beauty,   and the ball placement was incredible,  especially for the distance of the throw.  I get it y'all want to talk all day about his physical limitations, rather than look at what he does, and does well.  We wouldn't be playing meaningful football in December without him.  That is a fact.  Bryce doesn't fit the mold of my type of QB, but I don't hold that against him. That is beyond stupid.
