Bryce Young hot take

Sometimes you just have to throw receivers open and give them a chance to make a play. 

Olave wasn't open on that play when he made that acrobatic catch, but Carr threw it up and gave him a chance. 

That's what I'm looking to see. 

That was a safe throw though. He just had to air it out and put enough on it that only Olave and not the defender could make a play on the ball. And he almost missed it. Had Olave not made a crazy catch, that goes down in the book as an overthrow. That’s not exactly the same thing as throwing someone open with anticipation into a tight window. 
 

Im not saying you would do this, but I guarantee if Bryce had made that attempt on a similar play and overthrew the WR by just a smidge and the WR doesn’t come down with it because we don’t have good WRs, this Board would be going ballistic that he hadn’t thrown an accurate ball.

I think he is the next Drew Brees if he gets the right coaching.

We don't know how well Brees would have done his rookie season, because he didn't start. But I suspect he would have looked a lot like Bryce.

I was always jealous of how quickly Brees would dissect the defense and that quick gd release. So hard to defend.

 

I see that potential in Bryce. 

Are you already saying that our all star coaching staff was the wrong choice?

That’s a fair point. Right now the Huddle is coming to grips with the fact that this offense had two really good to elite players, both were traded away, and were replaced by JAGs and a rookie QB. 

The “trade Burns” crowd will quickly become the “we shouldn’t have traded Burns” crowd, just like last week “Luvu sucks” but this week “pay Luvu what Burns wants.”

That is this board in a nutshell.

I think one thing that most folks have completely overlooked is what looks to me like lack of urgency/ leadership /fire when on the field.  I mean what has the guy done through the past two games to fire up this team to win ?  Cam had it and so did Delhomme.  BY is like an automaton on the field and that inspires no one.

Ok so youre just an old blind homer? Thats more red herring nonsense. Who cares how long youve been on this forum. Your hot take here is nonsense. Hes simply trash right now, and cant even find the WRs when they break open. 

My man found a new word and euphemism. Red Herring. He must really like politics too. I call them orange pufferfish.

Not really the play where we finally threw it to Chark was an overthrow but we ended up getting a pass interference call anyway.

I was happy that he finally let it loose.

Please watch other football games and see how open WRs are due to talent/skill. There hasn’t been a lot of places to go with the football. 

Yep. The only one getting consistently open last night was Thielen.

Bryce can also throw into tight windows because he's had to.

It worked for them because their team believed in them. If a guy playing like Bryce tries to go all rah rah at some point you're gonna tell the kid to just STFU until he makes a throw or two.

The kid is like a zombie or survivor of electric shock therapy.  As I said - that doesn't scream effective  leadership, rah rah aside.

    • I hope not. 3rd-5th round QB's are historically awful. Most of the time that team is just drafting another QB in the first the following year. Look at the Saints, if they continue to suck this year they are just taking a QB. And if they do they just threw away a 2nd round pick that they just drafted. We did the same poo with Clausen, Greer, Pike, that guy we drafted a few years ago who is so irrelevant I forgot his name...  Just take a 1st round QB if Bryce isn't the answer and be prepared to live with it
    • This reminds me on Madden where you create an alternate uniform and the pre-recorded voice overs talk about how hideous your uniform looks. 🤣
    • There are people on this forum that just want to see a lot of passing yards....number go up. That's all it is, really. They are thirsting for a 350-400 yard game. The idea that Jameis Winston is going to come in and play like a star and lead us to wins is ludacris. He's the 3rd fuging string for a 2-5 team and has played horrible for years now. Sure, passing numbers will go up but you'll also get a lot of dumb plays, pick 6's, and incompletions en route to a frustrating bad offensive performance, just in a different way. I think these people are yearning for another Delhomme situation, and the odds of that happening are very very slim. It's way more likely Howell or Jameis comes in and looks like Jack Plummer or Andy Dalton did in the preseason. There just isn't that much good quarterbacking in this league right now. And if we draft another QB in the first round, there is a good chance they bust. It's not a guaranteed carrot. The reality is, as mediocre as Bryce has been, the risk of bringing someone else in in-season and releasing Bryce becuase you aren't happy with his current performance is staggeringly high. Don't want to re-up his contract and search for a solution in the offseason? Sure, I'm on board. Bryce hasn't been good enough to warrant a second contract. But It is very. very unlikely that bringing someone else in midseason is going to give this team more wins.
