Watching Young is like watching Russ during his time in Seattle

Young is at his best when he’s running around buying time while keeping his eyes downfield. It’s fun

I just posted this is another thread. That doesn’t typically translate well as NFL DL are much bigger and faster.

McCall did his thing again even in a loss.

I mean, 3 passing TDs 358 yards, 0 picks and a 76% completion rate in a loss is pretty dang good.  CCU had a sieve in their rushing defense...they gave up as many rushing yards as McCall had passing!  Yes, passing yards get inflated when trailing big in a game, but usually the completion rate suffers and INTs happen. Neither occurred in this instance which is a very good indicator that he doesn't panic and is cool under pressure in the face of adversity.

He made some incredible throws downfield.  A few were beautiful over the shoulder NFL throws

He's super interesting. I like him a lot more than most of the generally accepted second tier.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Really? You don't see why a team can't draft a QB in the 1st round while then starting their former #1 overall pick over them while on the last year of their deal? It puts the team in a TERRIBLE place no matter how the season goes.  If Bryce sucks, you have to answer questions as to why he was still on the team to begin with, let alone starting over the rookie.  If he's good, then you run into the situation the Vikings were in last offseason with sticking with the rookie contract or the the guy who just performed instead of said young QB. It's one thing when teams keep a vet around as a bridge QB, it's something entirely different when that QB is still only in their mid 20's and was taken #1 overall by that team.   That just doesn't happen and not sure it ever has in NFL history before.

      Where panthers draft ranked against Big Boards in 2023

      What is the alternative? - BY, will not play for less then his perceived contract (just like Cam Newton did). So you pay him top of market as befitting a 1st round, Heisman winning, playing birthing QB would get. Or you cut him. - Then we are forced to either sign a stop gap QB / previously failed QB and try to fix him or you spend a 1st round pick and draft a guy, basically resetting the team.  The reality is that we all want a top 5 QB. The problem is there are only 5 of those guys in the world and drafting, even #1 overall doesn't guarantee that.  The other problem is the NFL market. Young QB get paid. Even an average, young QB gets top of market deals. I know a lot of people here think we could sign him to an 'average QB contract' but thats not reality. Didnt happen with Cam wont happen with BY.  So we could let this season flush out and he is again a middling QB. But then we cut and restart or accept it is what it is (including compensation) and build a team around what we have.  My money is on the latter.

      That doesn't void his contract
