Another Bryce Breakdown

Youtube objective comments-

Thats weird that his foot work is so lazy. How does he expect to ever make his first read on time when he is still walking backwards when they are breaking on their route? Thats just crazy to see. These defenses have to be seeing this too and I dont see why not send heat if hes not gonna be ready to throw hot when he has to.

Does this player ever line up in a pro formation under center? He didn’t do it in college either. I don’t think he can bc of his size. That’s gotta kill their run game, and it makes the offense so predictable.

exactly, if you can’t line up under center then there is no effective play action pass plays taking place.

Hell, I'm legit rooting for Bryce. That'd be some delicious crow to eat.

But I'm not going to embarrass myself blaming everything under the sun to cover for Bryce in the meantime. He's playing bad. Yes, the entire offense is. That's true. But Bryce is part of the bad. It's not like he's a diamond shining in the rough. He's very much a big part of why the entire offense is bad. Sorry, that's just the reality of the situation.

That’s funny, the Brees thing. It is a lie that has been repeated enough that people believe it. Good job, liars. Bad job, people. 

There is a photo somewhere of Young next to Brees. Grow him up about 10–15% you might have a Brees comp. 

I posted it before.  Did the math. 209lbs vs 185lbs, hell I’ll be a Brycestan and give him 5 lbs. 209 to 190 . Still basically 10%. Add that rather than subtract it from Brees and he is 230 lbs. 

Turns out Brees is actually as close to prototype as he is to Young. That is how small Young is. 

”Nitpicking” they like to say, bringing actual details into the conversation, sheds a lot of light on how real and accurate people are being. 

 

Edit: and I admit I took Young off the top of the 1st round purely on his size, and then investigated further because people wouldn’t let it go. 

I saw enough independent of his size to keep him off my list.

I am really just using the size to illustrate how untruths can turn into truth for people who do not think for themselves. Lot of you out there. 

This narrative got out of control on the wrong side and hurt us badly.

It’s just so disappointing right now and it’s so hard to get this out of my head when I think about Young

We got Young/DJ Johnson

We gave up Moore, CMC, Jalen Carter, Williams or Maye and a 2025 2nd

Add in not making the Burns trade and you go from a team favored to win the NFC South for years to the worst team in the league.

Just pay Brees whatever it takes and replace McCown. Buy him a bunch of Jimmy Johns. Promise to finance his run for mayor of New Orleans. Whatever.

If we want Bryce to be Brees, go get Brees to teach him.

Who came up with the Brees comps in the first place? There's like nothing there, not even the size comp is accurate. Brees could QB sneak and leap over a pile when needed

Eye level, Brees is almost at Stroud’s eye level. Young’s eyes are at Brees’ mouth. The Brees comp is really bad. It’s definitely looking like we got sold.

It was a way for people to accept his height and say he can play in the NFL, at first it was Flutie

If you shaved Bryces head he'd probably look small beside PJ Walker lol. At least PJ has a cannon that teams have to respect

    • If you are an athlete or former athlete (myself?  Cornhole 2021-present; Disc Golf 2013-got a mega blister and had to retire; speed walking--every black Friday at Walmart 2003-2009) you know what it is to lose confidence.  Self-inflicted or not (in my view, a lot of 2023 was coaching and a lot of 2024 was confidence), he has confidence now. How fragile is it?  I think the light is on, the game slowed down, and he is ready to do his thing.  He seems to be "mobile in the pocket" instead of "running scared."   Last year, there were times when AT was out, Johnson gone, and all he really had was XL and Coker--a raw rookie with upside and an UDFA rookie.  TE was rarely a viable option. It reminded me of Benjamin and Funchess.   Moore had to step up.  This season, Bryce has weapons.  I expect XL to improve.  I expect TMac to help tremendously, and I think Coker will be solid.  Renfrow?  Horn?  bonuses.    
    • His points are valid.  However, it seems a bit based on past performance and fails to take into consideration trends and conditions that might suggest growth in 2025.   For one, he breaks the team down by position and ranks them separately.  I guess that is a fair way to do it, but they are dependent upon each other. Last year, our DL sucked.  That impacts the rest of the defense.  With no internal pressure, the QBs simply step up to avoid the Edge rush.  I would have suggested that the internal DL is now featuring pass rushers and large people who can collapse the pocket.  Secondly, the LBs were not protected very well in 2024.  It is hard to see the holes and step up when a guard is in your earhole a second after the snap.  Finally, the defensive backs will be forced to make fewer tackles and they will be better in pass protection with a new and improved DL.    Canales made an interesting comment the other day, and I (from the outside looking in) feel the same way:  (paraphrasing) "I have never seen a better group of rookies."   I think the biggest concern is the learning curve.  How long before these rookies are ready?   I am bullish on this team.  I think they win 3 of their first 4 and get confident.  The get the fans behind them.  From there, they win 6 of the remaining 13.  If they stay injury free, they have an outside shot at the NFC south.     
    • Biiiiiig eyeroll on this.  First, Look at historical stats of the most recent historical great DBs.  I plucked 3, Revis, Sherman, and Norman (cuzz he was our guy).  Combined post age 30, there are TWO pro bowls between those 3 and wanna get this...ZERO seasons with 16 games started.  ALL missed time.  It is RARE that Corners survive that long in the NFL and its about time we started recognizing this fact.  Jaycee is a good bet because it hasnt been anything seriously devastating injury wise, and with his sample size he could and should be an incredible piece for the panthers through age 30. Jaire kinda flops on the other side, hes 28...so hes under 30, but he wants his payday before it comes up, hes also been injury prone lately.  Bulk of the contract will be on opposite side of 30.  Will both of these guys help us be better in 2026?  SURE!  No doubt, but the question is, will these guys help us past 2026...not sure. The investment isnt worth the risk, nor would the ROI be anywhere close to worth it.  Neither guy is moving us from a 6-8 win team to a 8-10 team, period. My point is we're in this state a 6-8 win team IMO and he projects us as  a 4-6 win team.  EVEN if we think Jaire or Ramsey will make us a 6-8 win team, it in NO WAY is worth the money or capital to move that much just to suck kinda less.
