Young performance graph #2

I was a big pro Stroud guy. I think Stroud showed better ability to throw guys open.  
 

I’m not ready write Young off d/t struggling in two games on a team with little talent around. But I thought he held the ball too long, didn’t see some open receivers. The stats he did put up were mostly against a soft D trying to run out the clock. Not been a lot of positives so far

I think the whole selling point on Bryce was how mentally ready he was and how smart he was and how he'd be outsmarting defenses left and right. Because his physical toolset was always marginal.

No one ever said any of that about Young. He was credited for being the most pro ready because he was processing information like that of a 3 year vet. It doesn't mean he is one. That has grown into he is supposed to outsmart nfl defenses left and right. Laying it on a little thick there aren't you? You should go back to fondling Howells balls on the Commanders board.

You seem upset. Why don't you build another strawman to soothe yourself?

What bullshit? Young was absolutely heralded as a football savant. It's not like we drafted him for his physical tools.

Bullshit is you trying to change the subject to Howell and other forums I've never posted on.

Quote it! You shouldn't have any trouble if it's so well known.

Accepting the premise, is there any sort of hard evidence so far that this isn't true?

As has been said many times, we only have a two game sample. And historically speaking, even the smartest quarterbacks still have to adjust to the NFL.

Just read what Reich and Fitterer say about him. They're completely enamored with his mental capabilities. They gloss over the physical limitations because they're enamored with how brilliant he is on the game of football.

"At one point, (general manager) Scott (Fitterer) and I and Mr. (David) Tepper kind of made eye contact, like, 'This is crazy,'" Reich said. "He got into how he was studying the film, and some of the things he said about that. I looked at Mr. Tepper; he looked at Scott. It was like, this is next-level stuff.

"And listen, we've all been around, and we've all heard good stuff. The other guys said good stuff too. But this was just at a level that was different."

And where in that did anyone say was capable of outsmarting defenses left and right?  As I said, he is credited for having the processing ability but not the experience.  The staff is going to highlight his good traits and minimize any concerns.  So their faith in him has made him into some fans idea of a world beater. That you chose to do. No one ever said he could outsmart defenses left and right.  That you chose to imply.

You're getting triggered by language. What do you choose to call it when a QB is carving a defense up leaning on their pre-snap reads and quick processing after the snap? I choose to call it outsmarting the defense left and right. You can call it whatever you choose.

    • you are partially right.  We lack the key playmaker.  It's the QB.  Instead you fixate on why everyone can't lift up the guy who is supposed to lift them up.  RBs would make more guys miss if Bryce put the ball on them at the right time.  Those get pointed out often live during the game.  But he is late with most things.  So the advantageous windows close and they become dump offs.  Bryce is part of why the screen game never sets up right.  QBs that want to attack downfield do.  QBs that need Tyreek Hill.....aren't QBs that attack downfield.  See Jake.  You could give Jake Delhomme one big body possession WR.  He was a downfield attacking QB.  And so he would go to town downfield with just Moose as his WR.  We saw that play out as well. 
    • He also hasn't had a good front 7 pass rush three of those years (and the 2022 Broncos pass rush wasn't particularly talented either outside of Chubb). Cover 3 zone (Evero's primary zone) usually leaves underneath routes open, so QBs will usually have that checkdown option with the DC's hope that somebody then steps up to make the tackle for a short gain. Think of our Seahawks game - while the Seahawks didn't get a ton of sacks, Bryce got baited into the checkdown and the Seahawks wrapped up and tackled the RB/TE almost immediately every time for practically no gain. Unfortunately for us, half of our starters are rocking missed tackles rates that makes me want to vomit, so those 2 yard checkdowns to RBs turn into 10 yards in a hurry.
    • The '26 draft class is loaded with upperclassmen QBs.  I would definitely take a flyer after the second round.  This is where you throw a dart blindfolded at a dartboard and hope you miraculously hit the bullseye.  At best stumble upon a Brock Purdy, at worst you waste a day two or three draft pick.  Somewhere in the middle the team finds their Andy Dalton of the future.
