Back on topic. There was a discussion on a podcast I heard yesterday. Someone said she thinks Bryce has gotten thicker below the waist lately. That should help in several ways. It would be good for him to add some upper body size at some point, but I realize that QBs are reluctant to do a ton that may impact their throwing motion.

I thought that too when I saw some recent video of Bryce. He won't get taller but getting stronger and thicker will help him absorb punishment better.

I feel there is a joke here somewhere...

Will be interesting to see what he looks like 5 years from now.

I dont think that he will bulk up significantly. He might get to 205 in the preseason but Im sure he will slim down to 190's in the season. 

I dont ever see him being over 210lb - and I think thats ok (as it was talked to death) that weight is not a contributing factor to injuries. 

He is what he is and thats ok.

I agree. CMC was injured more AFTER he bulked up.  Weight didn't help Cam or Corral.  I don't want him to do anything that might slow him down or reduce his slippery shiftiness.

The only thing that is starting to bug me about him, and this is nitpicking at its best, is that in his interviews it seems like he is trying really hard (but the way he stumbles on his words) to try to find the most perfect thing and way to say it. Seems like he has been coached how to conduct himself in interviews. Which is not a bad thing.

But coming from Cam, Cam just carried himself with so much swagger and said whatever came to mind (which got himself into trouble). 

Yeah it kinda bugs me as well, but I guess it’s better than going all Zach Wilson

      Can we get to 9-8?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.

      Eight of Bryce Young's nine wins have come off game-winning drives

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand.

      Trade Chuba?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
