So apparently Greg Little filled in well.

I didn't make it a priority to watch Little today, but I can tell you what I saw.

Noticed they kept a tight end on his side a lot today. He did have one pretty good run block, but also had a play where he got knocked on his ass. On one pass play, a guy went inside and blew right by him. As he's frequently done in the past, Bridgewater saved it being a sack by getting rid of the ball. And of course, he and pretty much everybody else failed on the play that led to the long field goal try.

The general read on Little to date has been that he can look half decent against power rushers but can't handle speed rushers. It's also true that players who know how to use inside pass rush moves do well against him as opposed to guys who strictly rush around the outside edge.

Haven't really seen anything to change any of those perceptions yet.

I don’t know what to think about little. He’s young and could develop but I feel he isn’t the answer. However statistically he isn’t giving up sacks this year which is good. Our offensive line has been good despite the injuries. Maybe that’s due to the scheme, Qb play and coaching but the players do have something to do with it.

 

honestly I don’t see why we don’t use him as a guard if he isn’t going to be a good tackle.

Beyond the Message board Oline expert.. I saw him play pretty well against power and speed rushers.. He also got a few 1 on 1's with Cam and held his own... Of course ppl here have already made up their minds on him but I see a different player this year who has laid some aggressive pancakes on defenders.. Especially on run plays something the pre draft scouting report said he couldn't do...

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By Tepper's Chest Hair · Posted

      Sometimes its fun to read the threads/posts.  The panthers could literally hire a groundskeeper and we'd have a thread "improving the field for no other reason to prop up Bryce Young".  Apparently no move is ever done to actually make the team better.  All a conspiracy to just focus on Bryce Young. Or suddenly daydreaming and reminiscing about Sam Darnold when he was hated more than Bryce Young.  Its really fun to do a message board search about Darnold during that time period.   Or thinking there is just a tree that grows QB, and you can just easily go up and pluck one.

      Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying.

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
