Bryce Young sucks

I have a very simple question: who on this team would be a number 1 or even number 2 wide receiver or running back anywhere else? Hell, I don't even know who WE consider as the number 1 receiver. 

Keep making excuses, Bryce still looks like crap.

My biggest concern is that Bryce's arm looks ridiculously weak, far more so than I expected.  He was supposed to have average NFL arm strength and he just looks... not that. Maybe he's trying to put too much touch on balls?  I don't know, but in the first half a couple of incompletions would have been complete with a stronger arm to fit into the brief openings he did find...

This. I'd feel differently if I saw the physical tools to make the adjustments that are needed. He just doesn't seem to have the arm required to make the throws.

manning went for 300+ yards game 1. bryce hasnt got to that over 2 games. hell 490 for manning in 1st 2 games.  that was in a much more run friendly league and with a lot more advantage to the DB vs WR. so no this stupid saying of "given up on manning" needs to die. cause manning gave you hope. he had multiple long drives both halves. yes  manning threw picks year 1 and they couldnt run the ball against mia in short yardage that game, but these 2 games from bryce are nothing like that one. Manning showed hope and promise throughout games, not a 1 drive game or a garbage time drive.

Bro... Manning had Marshall Faulk and Marvin freakin Harrison his rookie year. We ain't got that.

I don't think we have anyone that would get as open as Bryce was used to in college to throw the ball accurately. Nobody has that but the Dolphins. Hell I'm not sure if he could even throw the long ball to Hill.

For me it's mostly the arm strength given the way he likes to play / played in college... There's glimpses of the mental game and scramble / play making, I think, but if he can't use that supposed "arm elasticity" to deliver the ball in those situations, it hardly matters...

    • He is "Keep Pounding." https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/45498715/nfl-carolina-panthers-chuba-hubbard-olympics-flag-football-track
    • This.  He knows where the seam is about to open, cuts, and accelerates hard. He’s slippery and tacklers always seem to be taking awkward angles to get to him. No dancing. Runs low and powerful. Almost never goes backwards for a loss. We’ve rarely had the guy who bounces off of tacklers. It’s nice seeing another one. 
    • I can't speak for others but yes I read it. The conclusions are based heavily around the use of the statistical metric DYAR created by football outsiders and used by ESPN for this article. It only includes players whose production began in 2000. But excluding HOF running backs who produced BIG in an iteration of the NFL that was not yet catered to making things much easier for offenses in order for them to prop up more recent candidates is rather absurd and seems like just playing favorites regardless of where one might fall on their opinion of the use of the metric in question.
