Based off what i been watching he threw the ball a lot better in 2021 than 2022 to me. Last year the passes didnt have the same zip and velocity also hung in the air a lot almost to the point they look like ducks. Receivers having to slow down on routes and turnaround for catches a lot.  2021 he is consistently hitting guys in stride and not throwing his backfoot as much. Im just watching games and noticing a difference.

Interesting. CJ had a shoulder injury in the beginning of 21' but seems like that's not an issue. Bryce sprained his throwing shoulder in Oct of 22'. I wonder if he'd thrown at the combine if he would have looked noticeably weaker

This is my take from watching him almost exactly. Guy almost always know where he is on the field and what he needs and makes instantaneous decisions that are generally exactly what his team needs. People act like him holding the ball is a negative but he also delivers the ball from the pocket quickly pretty regularly and I'd rather my QB have shown the ability to extend plays when its needed rather than need to develop that in the NFL. That kind of ability is something I've found separates the good QBs from the ones we think of as Great. Things like that are what make the Burrows and Mahomes special.

Guy also seemed to always turn it on when needed even when he was having a bad game, The only game in his career that wasn't at least within a score at the conclusion was that National Title game where I'd argue he made the passes he needed to, just didn't go their way. I've seen him make up plenty of deficits and deliver countless times in the fourth quarter, he doesnt ever seem phased.

There is just something special about this guy and you can really feel it the more games you watch from him. He's going to be great. I'm sure there will be plenty of growing pains his rookie year as he has to learn how to take less chances and figure out what he can get away with in the NFL, but I'm confident he'll figure it out. He may not have the beautiful arm CJ has but he's going to be able to deliver the ball where it needs to go, and he's going to be able to do that in pressure scenarios consistently.

Both these guys had great teams around them, two of the best teams in the Nation, and they are both Great QBs. I just think Bryce has the qualities that can elevate him to an elite QB status that I dont see with CJ, who I think is going to be good to very good in the NFL.

The more of Young I watch, the more I see why he was the consensus No. 1 overall pick all year.  Felt like Stroud only got into the discussion because of size.

I like Stroud though.  I think he's going to be a solid QB with the potential to be great.  But something is special about Young.  He just gives me the vibes of a QB who, with the game on the line, can create special opportunities for your team that not many other QBs can.

I think a weird way to put it is I prefer Stroud, but am scared of passing on Young if that even makes sense….

Makes sense to me. I'm fine with either based on the positives of their tape. Of course it goes both ways though. Some folks who are wanting to drag Stroud really need him to be mediocre at best. If he balls out the comparisons will follow these guys that's just how it goes.

Young really struggled badly against GA in that championship game and his Oline protection was as porous as a sieve. Stroud played very well against GA and came very close to win it even with his bad plays he still managed to almost pull it off. 

This is an awful comparison and rules out the well known fact that this game is a team sport.

Georgia beat Stroud and Young, with a QB who doesn't even hold a candle to the two.

Stetson Bennett played in a system built perfectly around him. No gaps. No holes. 

You can't use this comparison for that reason alone.

Young beat GA when he had his full squad...

    • 6 pages of tuka and Seltzer arguing is actually 97 pages long
    • 100%. And these same people will claim you have an agenda. You can't have it every way. We had the lowest rated defense in the league last year. Statistically the worst ever. By PFF grades (for whatever that's worth- but they are readily accepted, used, and conveyed by most "reputable" sources), the defense was the worst ever. Not only that, PFF rated our receiving corp the worst in football last season. The absolute worst... out of 32 teams. Which is why regardless of the lip service Canales and Morgan paid to the current guys, they knew it would be criminal not to give Bryce more help. People fixating on team stats and not taking these things into context are stupid, plain and simple, and I'm for one thankful they're not running this team (or probably anything for that matter bc they obviously can't discern reality. Again, going back to the eyeball test these Narrative Nancies seem to hate so much, did they not see the windows Bryce was putting balls into? Have the generally not watched much NFL? Please, please show me the film where all these NFL QBs are making throws like this to this point Bryce was "below average" down the stretch compared to them. Bryce made more wow throws in that 3 game stretch of the Bucs, Chiefs, and Eagles than every other QB combined in all the years since since Cam got hurt I genuinely am baffled by people that can watch throws like that and act like it's nothing. I guarantee you Steve Spagnola, Todd Bowles, and and Vic Fangio didn't think it was nothing after watching the little guy torch them with players those teams would be embarrassed to trot out at the skill position players. The national media spent all year making excuses for Mahomes not having elite weapons when he had multiple 1st & 2nd round talents at the skill positions along with future HoFers in Kelce and Hopkins. Bryce wasn't throwing for 300 yards every week with David Moore and Adam Theilen in spite of jaw dropping throws and you want to say the guy played below average. For those people, again, we ain't watching the same sport. And the name calling doesn't change that... The vitriol and projection... it's off the effing charts with these people.  
    • "Well you see if you remove this terrible game that terrible game this other terrible game and then focus on these games you'll see he's actually one of the better QB's in the league and he's actually as good as Jayden Daniels". My god this place is delusional. I love it.
