QB School: Bryce Young - Week 1 @ Falcons

1. JT hate, Hates, HATES Adam Thielen. Anyone know why?

2. Seeing the all-22 from the 2nd interception makes it clear he wasn't staring down the receiver, if that wasn't obvious from the game film.

3. TMJ sucks. Is he just lazy? Was that 2 deep routes where he was "overthrown" because he didn't go full speed on his entire route?

For real.

"I don't see anything encouraging"...

What?

Yeah 😕

I haven't watched the video, but going off my own analysis I was plenty encouraged. He played a smart game, stayed cool and passed (for the most part) accurately.

There's gonna be growing pains, but if you weren't expecting that you're not thinking.

Haven't finished it yet, but hard to get through it.  I don't see anything encouraging.  Staring receivers down, misplaced/bad throws, suddenly little to no feel for anticipation, bad decisions, etc.  

The sunshine and rainbows brigade keep wanting to cite it being his first game - outside of a couple of secondary players and maybe Grady Jarrett, the Falcons defense is ASS and Bryce looked horrible.  And again, outside of the injury AR looked better.  I think Stroud played better.  And we saw Cam dominate and take the league by storm from his first game on.  First game isn't an excuse, especially for a #1 overall pick.  You draft a guy #1 because they should step on the field and change the game in your favor from the first snap...

It's just very discouraging that every facet of his game that our staff felt made him the #1 overall pick over the other options are all areas he looked mediocre in for most of the game Sunday.

What I see is a lot of dumb mistakes by receivers and not a lot of game reps between that crew and young. Things will improve.

If you look around the league there are a lot of established quarterbacks that did not fare better Sunday than Bryce. Watching around the league quite a few quarterbacks looked worse. I credit him throwing the 2 interceptions as much on play calling as I do execution. Bryce will be fine.

Maybe he doesn’t hate him.  Maybe Theilen is just putting a lot of bad stuff on film because he is on the backside of his career and isn being relied on as the main dude in our offensive structure    And it’s noticeable.

I watched the whole analysis and was 95% positive about Young, overall complementary of his decision making and even said the same thing that one of the interceptions was the right read but safety was guessing and going rogue than what the coverage was supposed to be. I came away more encouraged about Bryce Young than I already was. 
 

As expected he was very critical of our receivers inability to create separation and lack of speed, and hard on Thielen and TMJ 

He liked our overall route concepts but we just don’t have the personnel .

When your team only scores 14 points, turns the ball over three times and generally fails to execute you have to expect some serious critique.  Yes, he was a little hard on AT.  But it wasn't necessarily unwarranted.  AT is the guy who is supposed to be the veteran presence in that room, leading by example.  I didn't see many shots of him dusting his guy and creating an obvious place for the ball to go.

It was an opinion that was critical of our wide personnel.  That's fair.  Our guys, AT aside, have generally proven nothing in their careers.  On past accomplishments, you have to say our WR room is bottom third of the league.  Until they prove otherwise, that's all they will be.  Criticism warranted.

We are paying about 35 million for that WR room this year.  Unfortunately, only 10.5 million is being paid to players who are actually on our roster.  I daresay that 25 million would be awfully helpful in improving that room.

In any event, we'll know a lot more by week 10.  To say we know anything after week 1 is folly.

Unlike most people, I really don't give a poo what strangers on the internet think of me or my opinion.  So unless the definition of trolling has changed, you're barking up the wrong tree.

Define irony. Being a mod on an internet Forum (which your main goal is to care about what people post) saying you don't care about opinions on the Forum you mod.

Also, a troll says the same thing over and over again. You've stated this same opinion about Bryce Young over and over again. That my good lad, is trolling.

    • With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.
    • Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.
    • Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
