Trapasso: Young's first few starts are concerning

[top dawg]

Bryce actually showed some signs of life. 

Other than a couple of bad INTs, I saw some flashes today.

Yeah if he could stop doing handoffs to the other teams top DE while the game is still within reach that would be great.

The Lions went into a prevent defense in the 4th quarter and stopped sending the house to ruin Bryce.

Im not trying to be a dick towards you, but I need to see some signs of life from Bryce when we aren’t down by 3+ TDs in the 4th quarter and the other team goes into full prevent mode.

He's just not a NFL level talent and you can't win in the NFL with him as your QB. Nice kid, very humble, not his fault he was taken 1 overall, but it was a mistake.

Don't care if he's a rookie. Don't care if it has been 3 starts. He fails the eye test. He doesn't have it.

He can't throw a football at a NFL level. There is 0 arm talent. Cam post shoulder injury has an exponentially stronger arm.

I get your point, and, hey, we do need to see much more. I agree totally. But, did they really go into full prevent mode? I saw passes into tight pockets.

I went back to some Alabama tape. I think we need weapons who can get themselves open underneath. BY loves to throw underneath. His best deep passes are down the middle. I think maybe one burner WR for go routes, but otherwise we need guys who can get open really quick inside and produce some YAC. Really miss Curtis Samuel, tbh. 

Def a speedster is needed. Along with a tall safety blanket TE. Too bad we have no 1st round pick

You could be right, but I saw some good throws today.

He just isn’t NFL caliber. Yeah, some will say his 200+ yard game today is proof he made strides, but in reality he didnt. He put up a huge bulk of those yards in garbage time when Detroit had pretty much blown us out.   Even his one throw everyone is praising looked a bit weak.  The best we could expect out of BY is on the level as Bridgewater.  We took the wrong QB in the draft plain and simple.

Might want to look again.  Lions were playing very soft.

Just like people say that there's always an excuse from some when Bryce plays bad, I submit to you that there's always an excuse when he plays well (albeit in spurts).

In fairness these same remarks were made about Dalton. Garbage time yada yada. And we actually kept that one close. It's always how it's going to go if your team is blown out. But. I will say today our defense was ass. It's looking like some guys in the locker room might be done.

They likely see what we see,

terrible coach and the wrong QB selected in the draft.  I would give up too.  

[tukafan21]

This is why you don’t trade away the farm for a WB who doesn’t have a single elite physical trait.  Hell, you could make the argument that he doesn’t even have a single above average physical trait.

This is as bad as it gets folks

[bobcat91]

In his defense, and I'm not a fan, his OL is awful, he has mediocre RBs and below average WR that get no real separation. It's almost impossible at this point to evaluate him. Having said that Stroud is proving why he should have been our choice
