Huddle will overreact as usual, but you can’t tell me the Falcons are that much better than the Panthers.

Bryce look composed but made two bad rookie decisions 

Offensive line played relatively well

Lack of playmakers on the outside really hurt. Hopefully Chark fixes that, but unfortunately Bryce’s top target for his career isn’t in this team right now.

Defense was good until the end, but run defense needs to be addressed

Our team is still talent deficient. Our WRs are definitely a problem, people running wrong routes or not being on the same page as Bryce is unacceptable. We have the QB position down, now we need to build around him and get some real talent! 

 

Yeah, I'm not giving up on Young. I did see a few good things from him today. The biggest issue is PLAYMAKERS at WR. We have not had a true playmaker since Smitty. Guys need to start emerging. I'm hoping Mingo becomes that dog! That's what Bryce, this team needs.

Didn’t say he was a bust just that his arm is weak and he lacks zip Ann accuracy on deep throws

Watch out. I mentioned his arm strength looked questionable during a preseason game and got poo on a ton. Not saying it isn't strong enough to be an adequate NFL QB, but you want more than that when trading up to #1.

You said he doesn't have an NFL arm.  A QB without a "NFL arm" drafted at 1 would be considered a bust.  He may not have an elite arm, but it is more than enough for the NFL.  

We will see but today it wasn’t good enough.   He was floating passes and throws longer then 10ish yards were pretty godawful

He is trying to say Young doesn't have a NFL arm.  Typical Huddler overreacting to a game.  Young is a bust we should have drafted AR (who left hurt) yada yada yada....

The problems we saw today (going for it unnecessarily, making a horrible call while going for it unnecessarily, no WR separation, listless offense) are probably gonna be issues all year. 

Other than a couple bad reads and 2 missed throws, Young was fine for a rookie QB. He just has abysmal weapons around him and that impacts any player. If he had Steve Smith to throw to instead of Adam Thielen, that would help. Leaning on Jeremy Shockey and Greg Olsen would also make life easier, as would handing off to DeAngelo and Stewart.

Instead, he's surrounded by an OL that played better than expected, an abysmal offensive game plan, a free-agent Rb whose lone impact play was a lost fumble, and a room of one promising rookie and a slew of replacement-level WRs. 

Removing all that from consideration, the 2-minute give-up offense of running it on 2nd and 20 was ridiculous. Don't expect any comeback this year, because it appears there's no plan for that.

      Great point.    I would lke to add that there is another QB on the roster who was terrible over the middle--Kenny Pickett.

      I don't think this is the year for Carolina, unfortunately.  I think they will have to make a decision on the QB position-all we know is that Bryce has year 5, but a long term deal has not been signed--yet--and they would be smart to take a "wait and see" approach.  I have not kept up, and I see a path to upside for Bryce, but I do not think we have aggressively pursued a QB when our QB was mediocre to worse than mediocre.  yes, his numbers are improving--but he has adapted by eliminating what he does poorly and not improving on what he does poorly.  Just my take and I have no data to support this view.   Basically, we go as Bryce goes, so the approach is not to bring in a QB to have him compete until we find one, but it is to make Bryce as good as he can be--is that good enough? Season ticket holders buy the hope of winning rings, not winning 8 games. Last year, Bryce had a resurgence.  Take away TMac and Rico Dowdle.  How good was he?  I still have hope.  Not a hater of plan A, but a hater because we have no plan B.

      Yeah man, I've been here for a very very long time. Couldn't even begin to tell you what year. Maybe 2004 or 5? I've never really been super active, just enjoy reading everyone's opinions and discussions. I'll chime in from time to time. I have had a few different accounts over the years. It's always been a fun place for me to check in on my favorite team. Hopefully we can keep the place running for a long while still. I also would like to recommend bringing back the Lovely Ladies page!
