It's not that he can't add muscle. It's that he has a slight, narrow frame. If I remember my terms correctly, I believe they call it an ectomorphic body type.

For context, picture Robbie Anderson standing next to Kelvin Benjamin. Regardless of weight or muscle mass, Benjamin's frame was wider and thicker.

From what I read here, Buffet lines had a lot to do with that.  Of course, posters here might be a tad bit biased.  🙂

not sure why 5’10” 200lbs is considered “tiny”

there are plenty of sub 6’ or sub 200lb players in the NFL

But are they QB's who touch the ball more than any other player on the field? Look I like Bryce Young as a person very much he's a great kid. But the hopium is going overboard in some aspects here. I hope he balls out and he's an MVP and all the other things. But he's rare for the position and it's okay to talk about that.

5’10” 200 still isn’t tiny

I don’t understand why people keep talking about Bryce being small at this point. 
 

EVERYONE KNOWS. 

 

“He might get hurt…”

 

EVERYONE KNOWS

 

”Smallest ever QB”

 

EVERY. PERSON. KNOWS.

Because a year from now, he still will be.

In fact, it'll be true however long his career lasts.

And as long as it's true, people will be concerned about him getting taken out.

    • It's honestly pretty interesting just seeing this pairing play out. Canales’ offenses (Seattle, Tampa) are run-first, under-center, play-action systems built around defined reads and intermediate/deep timing throws. That structure worked when he had QBs like Baker Mayfield or Russell Wilson in a system that created clear launch points and sightlines. His success has always been tied to a credible run game + play-action gravity. You can see that with the Panthers team building philosophy as well. Coker and TMac both are bigger receivers that won't get the best YAC production but thrive as possession receivers in contested scenarios. They're not the best in space and creating additional yardage in such, and would likely fair better systematically with a stronger armed QB who can create better opportunities on those boundary 1v1 matchups with stronger throws. Bryce, on the other hand, is a spread-native QB. His strengths are rhythm, spacing, quick processing, and off-script creation. Asking him to live in condensed formations with long-developing play-action concepts just hasn't been his forte. And well, his boundary throws are limited in velocity which takes a big chunk of the playbook off. And I mean a QB like Bryce can still work, it's just Dave's offensive philosophy and foundation is very much at odds with Young's physical limits and his own experience. So it's certainly still a learning experience for Dave to figure out how he can mesh his offensive philosophy with Young's strengths. He's very inexperienced with maximizing Bryce's strengths with his system. Would love to see us bring in an OC with spread experience and adaptability to implement a cohesive system with Dave to allow Bryce to thrive, as it's obvious we're sticking with him for a bit longer.   
    • Only thing I really agreed with is questioning why we didn’t take any timeouts on their last drive.  I know hindsight is 20/20, but I think it would’ve saved clock bc they were desperate to score as soon as the opportunity presented itself, but I also think it could’ve helped the defense regroup and maybe give us a better chance to stop them.
