I made an error and reworded my post. CJ also played good without key pieces and almost sealed the game but didn't. He did a very good job trying to keep it alive till the end.

"Didn't Stroud lose his WR's due to injuries and lost against GA but he still managed to stay in the game staying competitive."


Indeed he did. No shade from me, CJ balled out against Georgia.

I'm honestly peppering a ton of pro Young content not because I necessarily like him better than Stroud, but because the majority of the fanbase seems to be against him because of his size when his game itself is actually really good and we should be happy if he's the pick. Kind of want to be proactive in letting the fanbase down gently in the event Young is the pick and not Stroud, because there is a ton to like about both, not just one over the other.

he didn't pull off a win, but it wasn't his fault that they didn't win. guy did an incredible performance without his best receivers.

I redid post wording. I made error saying a win. I was on another train of thought when I was typing post.

"Didn't Stroud lose his WR's due to injuries and lost against GA but he still managed to stay in the game staying competitive."

The Herbert hate that year from some was wild. A lot of people blame Oregon not letting his show his skillset better for it, but he killed a lot of these amateur scouts credibility that year.

Yeah to assume CJ's Georgia game was a one off is just weird to me. Bryce has to play like that against all competition just to get off plays. Maybe CJ was asked to stay in the pocket. If he tried to run/scramble and was bad at it I'd understand, but he was good at it when he did do it.

I just don't think he was asked to do it very often. Sooo much of the tape shows insanely clean pockets with uber-talented WRs running free all over the place...something he will not be as fortunate to have in the NFL. 

I think Day's offense was built around CJ's strengths, he made reads pretty quick with the option routes built-in and had weapons everywhere.

This is the clear knock on his transition to the NFL....can he perform at elite levels when the noise is all around him?

Bryce Young is not Steph Curry. Steph Curry is 6'2. 

 

On scale with his opponents, Bryce is similar to Steph Curry. Have you seen football players stand beside shooting guards or bigger?

It means he throws guys open

I get that. Sometimes, "throwing guys open" in college is throwing interceptions in the NFL. If our staff think he's got the arm strength to overcome the speed and anticipation of NFL secondaries and LBs, I'm good with him.

I don't remember the Cam draft having this many insane fanbois. You can't even talk about one of Young or Stroud without some completely retarded pissing match breaking out. Did I somehow miss us ending up with the #1 overall pick?

I must have because the level of butthurt about the POTENTIAL of our pick not going one group or the other's way is lightspeed crazy.

What does he mean by "high anticipatory throws?" Does that mean Young places the ball at a spot where his receiver will be 3 strides from then? 5 strides? Is he proficient at this because he literally doesn't have the arm strength to zip it into a tight window? That's my concern. Smart players learn to compensate for deficiencies. If he can't zip a throw into a tight window, he won't do well in the NFL. 

Anticipation is a good thing.  Stroud does it as well.  Every QB in the NFL needs some level of anticipation to succeed in the league.  You can't just wait for guys to get open and THEN try to throw it.  NFL QBs have to throw to a spot and trust their guy to win the route.

      Top 10 worst qb rooms from CBS sports. Panthers number 9

      By 52Beast · Posted

      Like many of the old heads, I’ve been here for a long time.  I got a lot of respect for everyone on this board for your dedication to this team.  We’ve all been through it during the tougher years. At this point in life, I’m not one to judge anyone’s level of dedication, or their reasons why anymore.  Time, and a lot of bad football, will do that.  For me, it’s simple.  We share a common bond.  For that, I love and appreciate all of you crazy SOB’s. For me, last season was at a minimum, entertaining.  BY lead a young team to multiple come from behind 4th qtr wins.  That showed me heart, and that he has the clutch gene.  That’s the wildcard intangible.  For me, that was fun to watch even  if it was mindbogglingly frustrating at times.  Over the past two seasons, we have progressively built a better team around him.  On paper, the defense should be better this season.  That’ll help.  Let’s see what he can do as the other guys continue to develop too.  Besides, his contract is cheap for a few more years, and we just made some smart cap decisions during the draft. Let’s see how it shakes out.

      I would very much liked to have seen Jake Delhomme's career if Tommy Jone no hurt Jake.  I just know that roster and the leadership were destined to hit paydirt but Jake was never the same after the elbow injury, and unfortunately he was the sole reason they didn't make it back to the big one.  I think that 08 team was the best in the league, and Jake masked his inability well all season til the Arizona game put it all on display.  I'll go back to the season prior even and say the 07 team was primed to be a competitor.  Jake was off to a fantastic start that year (for a Panthers QB).  They may have been a championship caliber club for a few seasons after 08 too.
