I'm a few episodes in, it's definitely a decent watch - and I don't usually like stuff like this unless it's Panther related.

my biggest take away is Mahomes, obviously all eyes should be on him - his every move. the guy is arguably the greatest to ever do it and he's only just begun. Mahomes is a very vocal leader, inspiring, lots of joking, complimenting, hyping up. the biggest thing he does is work with his childhood trainer. they work on some really interesting and simple, yet genius ways to keep his body flexible and durable.

I pray to Sam Mills that Bryce Young watches this show and focuses on those two aspects of Mahomes game. Bryce needs to be a vocal, edgy leader and I haven't seen that side of him. Bryce also needs to take care of his body and do similar resistance and endurance training like he does. No QB is safe from these defenders.

also, does anyone know if Bryce played any baseball? I have a theory on successful NFL QB's and one of my main boxes that needs to be checked is former baseball experience. Especially shortstop. The traits you develop from being a short stop aren't teachable or coachable and have major, and unique upside.

Felt bad for Mariota.  Seems like a nice guy.

I really wish fans would have some perspective before heaping scorn on guys like this.  A Jay Cutler type who clearly doesn't give a fug and is just stealing a paycheck? Sure, but a lot of guys like Mariotta are good people working their tails off and guilty only of not being better than a dozen or two of their peers at what they do.

The worst starting qb in the NFL every year is the 32nd best qb in the world out of thousands upon thousands.

Just strange that they picked two super middle of the road vets, I guess they can only get QB's that want to deal with being filmed all season long. No one ever wants to do Hard Knocks 

I suspect the only reason Mahomes did it is his wife, she’s a massive attention whore.

Yeah let's see if we can get Young in some college baseball games. Technically doesn't he still have eligibility if it's a whole different sport?😛

I remember Reggie Bush after a few seasons of getting hurt did some weird offseason training to become more flexible and durable. He didnt last the season. 

Injuries are fluke.

I’m kind of surprised by some of these takes. I binged watched it in two days and thought it was great. The Mariotta part wasn’t the greatest, but I actually loved watching the Mahomes and Cousins parts. I like seeing the difference in one QB who basically has unbelievable God given talent versus a guy who has many flaws. Both of which work their butt off and it shows in their play. Mahomes is everything you want in a QB from athletic gifts to work ethic. Cousins wasn’t given the gifts of Mahomes or most QBs in the league, but the dude is unbelievably committed to his craft. 
 

i also loved Cousins explaining the 4th down play against the Giants. It’s easy for us fans to get mad because he threw the ball behind the line of scrimmage, but when he goes through the play and talks about how fast you have to make a decision, it makes sense. 
 

I love football in general and not just the Panthers so I thought it was a really really good watch. 

Agreed it was a good watch for what it was and who they chose as QBs to follow around.

Agree with you re: QBs and baseball. Playing PG can help too. Especially when throwing to TEs or RBs slipping out of the backfield.

He really does need to learn how to slide if he's going to run at all. I feel like that's why Corral was getting blasting for size concerns but no one really brought up Bryce diving head first after pretty much every QB run in college.

I'm not so sure it's a baseball thing as much as it is being creative with your throwing motions and adapting to off platform throws.

      Your Feelings on Bryce Through 3 Seasons? (POLL)

      By Hoenheim · Posted

      I fully expect them to pick up his 5th year , and they're waiting for him to put a full excellent consistent season of QB play in year 4 or 5. If that don't happen,  they'll eventually cut ties.  Here's to hoping he just goes on a team in 2026. The worst thing he could do is continue to see-saw us to around .500 records because it might be impossible to replace him at that point unless youre willing to do the veteran qb carousel poo we did from 2019 to 2023.

      Your Feelings on Bryce Through 3 Seasons? (POLL)

      By Hoenheim · Posted

      What do you think of Bryce Youngs career thus far? Are you excited about his progress or is it not enough for you? I included a poll of ranking his performance through 3 years thus far.  I personally think he's made some decent progress. Has had some high moments (last half of 2024, Rams game, ATL game in 2025)  but in my mind, those are still outweighed by the many more lowlights thus far (ex turnovers, missed throws, poor decisions)  It's a very mixed bag for me. He's done enough to get a 5th year option but by no means should we lock him in with a 50+ mil a year multi year deal. I want to see him play consistently well for a full year before that happens (yes, I'm still saying that going into year 4. That might be telling).  Just sucks when you see CJ Stroud, Jayden Daniel's, Caleb Williams almost immediately lighting poo up with their arm talent. Maybe Bryce is just an ultra slow burn. I don't know what to think anymore. Guess we're gonna be stuck with him for a whilr unless we end up being bad enough to earn a high pick next year. I doubted it lol. Overall Stats for his career:       ● 14 W - 30L (regular season)       ● 0-1 playoffs record        ● 61.4% completion, 8291 passing yards, 49 TDs, 30 INTs  Year 1:       ● 2 wins, 14 losses      ● 60% completion rate, 2877 passing yards, 11 TD to 10 INTs, 5.5 yards per attempted pass Year 2:        ● 4 wins , 8 losses        ● 60.9% completion rate,  2403 passing yards, 15 TD, 9 INTs,  6.3 yards per attempted pass  Year 3:        ● 8 Wins, 8 Losses         ● 63.6% competition rate, 3011 passing yards, 23 TDs to 11 INTs  Playoffs         ● 1 game in year 3 ( 0 - 1 in playoffs)         ● 21/40 (52.5% completion rate), 264 passing yards, 1 TD, 1 INT.
