Dear Coaches, Stop Coddling

[Carolina Cajun]

Obviously with our play calls for 42 screen passes and nothing but the safest passes, we're trying to coddle Young.  Is Young good?  Is he Bad?  NO ONE fuging KNOWS because the plays being called are basically what you call for game managers.  Well ya know what, we're not winning, we're not gonna win, and we need to give up on that hope, so we need to just air it out.  If Young goes out and throws 15 interceptions but we have at least a few flashes of good explosive plays then that gives us more hope than this constant garbage.  Cam had 4 INTs through 3 weeks, we don't talk about that and we were 1-2 and only won because we played Blaine Gabbart in a Monsoon.  Why did we have so much hope and forget about all of Cams Mistakes?  Welp, its because Chud encouraged him to air it out down field, and if we lost, at least he had the splash plays that fanbases die for.   Hell, that's what Indy did with Peyton Manning. HELL, its literally what we did last week with Andy Dalton, just call it the same and if Young is the one checking down constantly then they need to scold him because that's a losing formula and we aren't just gonna out-talent everyone like what he was able to do at bama.

TL:DR - Coaches, stop playing "not to lose", just assume we're gonna lose and atleast show us fans SOMETHING, ANNYTHING positive with our #1 overall pick.

Yeah this irritates me more than anything.  Let him sling it.  I can’t recall us running any slants, skinny posts, deep posts or crossers, etc.  The offensive system is broken.  Even Andy had to deal with some head scratching play calls and very few mid level/deep shots.  He threw for 300 yards because he threw the ball 50 times.  We have zero creativity, never throw on first down, and constantly force Bryce to play behind the chains. 
 

Let the kid throw the friggin ball.  Run more play action.  Roll him out of the pocket.  This offense currently looks exactly like the Colts offense with Matt Ryan last year.  It’s anemic, predictable, and boring.

I swear it still feels like they are in pre-season mode.

Maybe it's not playing not to lose and something else. Like damage control. IDK, anything is on the table at this point. They are an embarrassment and there isn't a good way to spin it so it should be getting loud soon.

You’re right we gotta let him play off script. But we also need to add some juice out weapons couldn’t run out of sight in a dark night

That absolutely would make sense too, maybe they think Youngs Mind is fragile?  Whatever it is, it clearly isnt working.  I think about what Justin Fields showed last year.  Im not saying Justin Fields is any good whatsoever, but Bears fans atleast had some excitement at the end of last season not because he was winning games and not even because he wasnt turning the ball over, it was because he did some big splashy things that made fans hopeful.

We always said the same thing about Sam then he’d instantly do something stupid 

Maybe the coaches know this is about as good as it gets for Bryce

At least for now.  I think it would be worth while to sit Bryce the next couple of games and let's give it another go in week 8 after the bye.

He needs to gain weight and get stronger. I truly can’t believe he showed up looking so damn small.

My fear is this gameplan is for a reason that none of us understands.

He can't gain height, but he can put on mass and get stronger.  That strip-sack/fumble today was weak.  The defender barely whacked him on the arm and the ball popped out.  Dude needs a whey powder infused IV.  I'd like to see Bryce get up to about 215 pounds.

Same goes for the one against the Saints. It doesn’t look like he gained a single pound from the end of the season last year. I really didn’t think that would be the case

Even Zach Wilson is looking a lot thicker right now. Maybe Bryce thought this would be easy
