You’re just trolling his size had no impact on his play and his arm looked strong. 

His arm looked strong?   I get he understands the game and is a quick processor but that’s a borderline nfl arm.  Who in the nfl has a weaker arm?

 

brees made it work the back part of his career so hopefully we can do the same with young

Every complaint people have about Young (size / borderline NFL arm strength / ability to see the middle of the field) was abundantly clear on his College tape. 

I'm still amazed we made the pick.

Shenault needs more touches. He’s the Luvu of the offense. 
 

bryce looks poised. Think he became over cautious after second pick. First pick was just a good play by the safety. 
 

burns and brown made the falcons offense one dimensional in the first quarter, and kept it up until the turnovers caught up with them. Even better, brown really stood out yesterday. They stopped running his way until the end of the game. And he LOOKS the part now too. When he was walking out of the tunnel he just looked bigger. 
 

that’s honestly about it. Those were two bad teams going at it; the falcons just realized they needed to run and did it.

Problem is Shenault is a bad WR.  That happens to be really good with the ball in his hands.  You can only scheme him up so much.  

But yeah, he might be the best on the team with the ball in his hands

I thought they had a good start to the game, in particular the first drive. I love that they went for it on 4th and 1 despite getting stopped.

I thought Bryce looked good, all things considered. It was his first real NFL game, it was in a hostile environment, it's a new offense with a retooled OL and WR's who couldn't get separation. I was disappointed in the interceptions, especially the second one...but he's a rookie. 

I must have missed the scouting report that listed a cannon for an arm. I think we all knew that's not what we were getting. He made a couple of deep throws that showed his arm is plenty big enough to stretch the field. I'd rather have a highly accurate QB with an average arm than a cannon who misses open targets.

Biggest disappointment by far was the self inflicted wounds. Three turnovers, some boneheaded flags...just looked undisciplined.

Again, it's Game 1 and we knew this was going to be a long process.

U kidding me? I didn’t see any wounded ducks back there, if anything the deep attempts to TMJ and Mingo was evidence he can throw it deep on a rope when needed without too much air.   If he comnects on just one of those your whole argument falls apart.  
 

Who has a weaker arm?

Mac Jones, Tua, Brock Purdy, Jimmy G. to start?

    • To start with, you wouldn’t want to count up that value chart. You would see quickly where that is headed. But you basically did a quantity comparison, while ignoring quality.  I am looking at 2023 as the start, because it became all about Bryce.  2023 you have 4 picks plus DJ Moore for offense vs 2 (80 and 145) for defense.  2024 you got the 1st overall, the 32, the 46 and the 101 for offense vs 72, 157, 200 and 240 for defense. Leave the FA IOL out of it. Which was a crazy big  investment. But it wasn’t draft.  Anyway, that is basically 4 top 100 picks for offense and 4 picks for defense in 2024. Except they were 2 first rounders, the second rounder, and the 4th was really high at 101. Vs 72 and day three stuff. Please….  Second quoted/bolded… See you think we hate Bryce. That isn’t it at all. It is nice easy way to characterize us and discredit our talking points though.   Me, I do mostly hate watching him play. But I don’t hate the person. I hate the hell out of the stanning.  It started with the very first question I asked about his footwork, arm strength, and size. Height being the principle objection. I never even got to the durability factor. There was plenty without factoring that in.  But there was rabid opposition to even asking the question of what a couple of small fractions of a second extra closing time would do for the defenders.  What the extra time it takes to flip the hips would do vs a pass rush or on the other end after the ball is in the air. Split second more for recognition where it is going for the DBs.  The tippy toe backpedal.  That poo was a mess and it has always been mess but no Bryce fan wanted to hear it. “Go get another team to root for”. “It worked in the SEC it will be fine in the NFL you don’t know football you are just a hater”.  It got worse when the real games started. It has never stopped. It is nice that many people have left that train so there is less abuse but it hasn’t stopped.  So whatever… 
    • Whatever school you attended, I don't know and I don't care, but I would suggest demanding a refund.    Something was completely missed there.
    • The draft capital since since 2023 has in no way been pretty even.  Especially when you zero in on day 1 and day 2 draft picks.  Draft capital has vastly gone toward the O over D.
