What do you feel like Bryce Young's ceiling is, as of now?

We will know all we need to know by the end of the year. There is stuff Bryce needs to work on but the product on the field doesn't warent skipping a true QB compitition. It's obvious he isn't close to being able to outperform Dalton.

Too early to say. I'll make that determination at the conclusion of the season. This one is lost. He needs to get out there and just play football we have nothing else to play for except development. There's no need to be timid or be scared of throwing downfield this has to change whether it's more the coaches or him or vice versa it doesn't matter. Take your shots even if you turn the ball over. I don't care if he throws some interceptions I can accept that a hell of a lot more than I can the fumbles.

We need a WR1, the FO miscalculated with the recent trades, but they are correct in realizing we need a WR1. Hurts and Tua are different QBs with a top WR, even Burrow hit a new level with Chase. Josh Allen hit new levels each year they added talent for him, culminating with Diggs. It's as simple as that. I think Bryce can get to the same level as those guys with the right WR1, but we have to go get one and at this point that probably means trading Burns. I think most of us would be happy with a high powered offense in exchange for a weaker D in the meantime.

 

Jeudy is not the answer. Hollywood Brown is the most likely to be a "bridge" WR1 until we land a true elite guy if we're looking solely at guys available to trade for in season. I'm uncertain about Tee, because he would command top money and I don't think he tops Bryce out like AJ Brown, Tyreek Hill, or Stefon Diggs would. Reich needs to be removed from play calling. Move Burns for Brown and a 1st or try and trade for Brown now without Burns and move Burns at the deadline for (hopefully) 2 1sts again to get back into this WR draft this year.

Young will get 2 years. I’m pretty confident in that. Fitt, Reich, or both could be fired during that period but it will probably be letting Evero or Brown be interim HC. 2025 will be the earliest we replace Young if we aren’t sold on him by then IMO. We should have a first again then as well if needed.

The post is referencing Drew Brees as a comparison. As previously stated, it took three years for Brees to resemble a competent starting QB - so his fourth whole year in the NFL. So yeah….huh.

    • Please don't tell me you just averaged the QB ratings of all of Shough's starts to declare his QB rating as better 😂 I hope you don't actually believe that's how it works.  Otherwise please show your math on Shough's QB rating as a starter. Thanks for including Shough's 2.6 more Rushing YPG in this comparison, really doesn't feel at all like you're desperately grasping for as many straws as you can here. The truth is, it takes a statistical bottom-tier starting QB like Bryce Young to make Shough look simply OK by comparison.  And that bottom-tier starting QB still, by your own admission, puts up more points for his offense than Shough.  You're framing this as damning for Bryce, but in reality the fact that him and Bryce are so neck-and-neck is shining Shough in a very poor light. Yes Shough is a rookie and Young is a 3rd year starter, which is why I circle back to my position of Shough having a "pretty solid, encouraging rookie season" whereas you're fanboying over him.  Never mind that Shough is 2 years older than Bryce though.  Normally yes a QB's experience in the league is invaluable...but Bryce is kind of a unique situation considering the biggest complaint with him is he is too physically limited to succeed in the league.  Do we think a QB can overcome severe physical limitations simply with experience?  Also I remember wayyyy back (/s) when we cared so much about DJ Johnson being an older rookie and our standard for them being that they're more NFL-ready and able to contribute sooner rather than later.  But now all of a sudden Shough is just a poor little 26-year-old rookie on an awful team.  Seriously...the way you frame everything around Shough is straight out of a fanfic.  Constantly referencing with tears in your eyes how he's succeeding against all odds on such an awful team.  Meanwhile the Saints' D is 14th in PPG and their offense (led by Shough) is 29th in PPG.  Telling me how the Saints managed a win on Shough's shoulders against the Jets last week who put up...*checks notes*...6 points against the Saints' D.  Yes god bless the savior Shough who willed his team to victory against those juggernauts led by Brady Cook.  Never mind how Taysom Hill threw as many touchdowns in 1 passing attempt as Shough did in 49 passing attempts.  Yikes.
    • Who's gonna drop the gloves? I can't think of a single player on this team that can fight. Period. Much less get the best of an opposing player. Please.
    • as a starter, Shough is better this year in all the aspects I shared with you.  Facts. You disputed nothing I said because I’m talking starts and my numbers are right
