Only 1 WR has hit 1,200 yards from scrimmage each of the last 2 seasons

When this is your production and you have had Kyle Allen and Teddy B be your QB… you are an absolute stud. 

Im not sure what the significance of this statement. Yards were not really a problem for either of those QB.. Both were more productive in yards than Newton on an average in their single seasons here. 

Then we had people bragging on Brady getting 3 1000 yard from scrimmage players so again yards weren't the issue. TDs are.

When you are doing something no other WR is doing it’s significant. Especially significant when your QBs suck. He’s doing something no other WR has done the last two years and I’d argue not many top end WRs have a worse group of guys throwing to him. 
 

TDs are an issue because guys like Teddy literally miss him wide open in the end zone or don’t see him streaking down the field for potential TDs because he’s looking for the check down. His TD total would be fine. And Julio Jones has long been considered a top 3 WR in the NFL even without the touchdowns.

The ability to move the ball never seems much of an issue. What we all noted was the red zone issues.

And a good chunk of that’s on the QB. The dude is the only WR in the NFL with this feat right now and there’s always that one Huddler that’s like “meh”.

With terrible QB’s throwing him the ball 

Exactly! Neither QB should be starting in the NFL. More impressive, IMO, is that we didn't force him the ball. CMC had > 1000 receiving yards in 2019 and Anderson had > 1000 last year. Samuel also put up solid numbers both years, 627 in 2019 and 851 in 2020.

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
