Bryce Young sucks

I don't know if his height is an issue or not, but I'm more concerned with his arm strength right now. Whether he doesn't trust his arm/what he sees, or just can't make the throws, he isn't able to stretch the field the way he needs to.

We don't have the luxury of knowing if Young has it or not this early in his NFL career. We really won't know until toward the end of NEXT season.

If they don't know by the end of THIS season, then the team is fugged

He's missed multiple open reads because he can't see over the pocket. All 22 will be interesting this week

Bryce hasn't looked good, but the organization has not put him in many situations to look good so far. Even with all new staff and players, our offense just looks "slow" just like it always has. We wait till the last second to snap the ball every damn play, and everything feels like it takes 10 years to develop.

I don't mind the waiting to snap the ball given what Bryce's skillset it supposed to be, this isn't like when we did it with Cam to let it run down while just standing around.

That is by design to let Bryce do his mental side of things, which I'm fine with.

The scary thing is that he kept doing his audibles, particularly on 3rd down, and they NEVER worked.  Think the only time I noticed him doing his audibles at the line on 3rd down and we converted was when he ended up scrambling for the long run, which while nice, has nothing to do with his changes at the line.

Early, small sample size, blah blah.

But at this point, Bryce Young makes Teddy Bridgewater look like Cam Newton. And by all appearances, we’re going to continue to mistime and stagger our GM and coaching hires yet again when we kick our current dipshit out the door at the end of the season.

Edit: he is also possibly the lowest energy player I have ever seen. Keeping calm and collected is good, but he’s borderline catatonic out there.

I could forgive a bunch of interceptions, I could forgive some bad reads, but I just don't see any fire. I don't see an unceasing desire to win. I'd be okay to see him go and try his ass off and fall on his face. But I just see a very pedestrian QB, like if you had your fifth rounder step in after your first and second stringer went out with injuries. 

God dammit, get angry! Fight! Make throws down field. COMPETE!

Remember when Cam Newton broke out with 422 yards his first game? Looked the part. Took your breath away with the thought of what’s to come? Yea, this is like the absolute opposite of that. Makes me think we just traded a poo ton of draft capital on a dude that will be selling Toyotas in a few years. Hell, his dad knows what’s up. The look on his face. Seeing his dads face tonight reminds me of my face when I saw my baby girl struggling at 8u softball. They are your world but you realize they aren’t going to be D1 athletes. 
 

We made a mistake. This child isn’t it.

    • My fantasy league is named Any Given Sunday. It's a Yahoo friends and family league that's existed since 2008. There's no money involved, just bragging rights. The participants love it, and we love mixing it up and talking sh¡t to one another. I've won the trophy five times (and almost a close sixth), so they love beating me (and seeing me win, oddly). I'm on a four year drought though. So this year I kinda said, "fug it, I'm going all-in on my guys." Amid that, I did something that I never do and went RBs one, two and three, with the critical---some would say the "crazy" move being Chuba at three. So now I'm light on receivers. But, I was ultimately able to get my guys. Dave Canales is already talking crazy talk, suggesting that he's not going to let Chuba run wild in so many words (so I learned in the other thread). I bristle at that. I'm giving Bryce a lotta faith by extension. He's on the wire (but I may as well have played him for all Dakota did the other night). I obviously believe in Tetairoa. He could be my WR1 (other than Scary Terry). I picked up X late, and I'm hoping that he will make the league hate that I did because it was kinda disrespectful for him to be drafted in the 12th round if you ask me. As for JT Sanders, I picked him up as an aside because as we all know, the pickings at TE are slim (especially when you have to try and build a complete team after taking three RBs so early). I hope that Sanders comes through, then I might be looking good.  So, yeah, I kinda went all-in. If there was ever a time for our offense to come alive, I need them to do it this season.  Bryce needs to continue on his ascension from the end of last season, and Canales needs to let Chuba run the damned rock. We have insurance in Rico (as do I), so let Chuba do his thing. If our offense doesn't work this season, then we're just fùcked, and so am I most likely. But I have faith. Now let me go move Golden back to W/T spot. I have faith in X, but no so much that I'm playing him over Golden tomorrow.  
    • I am loathe to make any predictions before I see the team in action. Within that vein, on the eve before the beginning of the NFL season in earnest, I will say that four wins is the floor and 11 wins is the ceiling.  Call my sizable spread a "copout" if you like,  but I will tell you, "Nobody knows sh¡t at least until the end of the month." That's the way I see it, and, for now, that's what I'm sticking to.   
    • If you can run all over a team, you do it. That's a football truth as old as time immemorial.
