I mean yeah, he's averaging like 5 yards per attempt. That would've been terrible 20-30 years ago let alone in the modern NFL where all rules favor offense and particularly passing. Sure part of that is the offense and lack of weapons/protection, but a lot of it is still Bryce and his inability to threaten downfield. Plenty of other QBs throughout the years have done better with just as bad of a supporting cast and coaching.

Bryce Young's YPA is the second lowest in recorded history.  1st was Jawalrus' final season at 5.23 in 2009.  Derek Carr had a 5.46 in 2014.  Bryce is currently at 5.40.

It's bad.  It's also because of the personnel around him, but it's damn bad.

Wow. A team that is 1-10 happens to be statistically bad. Great insight. 

A few points to consider. 

Firstly, this isn't statistically bad, this is historically bad.  Bad stats can happen.  But seriously, it takes a lot to end up at the bottom of a list of 431 names.  Think about some of the names on that list.  Tajh Boyd.  Bryce Petty.  Nathan Peterman.  These are bad, bad players . . . and BY is at the bottom.  That's scary.

Secondly, he's going to get next season to turn it around.  There is nothing we can do this offseason to fix the QB spot.  If you bring in a guy, Bryce is done.  Now maybe he should be, but I don't believe you can give up on a guy you invested that much in after only one season.  No!  It doesn't look good right now, but he should get that chance.

Finally, we have to be honest.  By the middle of next season, we will know about Bryce.  And if it's a bust, we have to be ready to call it a bust and move on.  Let's not hang on hoping for a miracle.

Hope for the best, expect the worst.

I'm pulling for him to succeed, but I'm not gonna pretend it's likely.

I watched that horror show yesterday, and honestly I wasn't sure if it was true about receiver separation and bad protection or because Bryce can't throw deep... but I was wrong, that man is working with absolutely nothing. Not saying he will improve, but I just can't make a judgment on him this year. It's a literal disaster.

We won't know exactly how much of this is Bryce's fault until he's under a new staff and has WRs who can get separation.

Well, we do know that it's somewhere between quite a bit and a lot just from watching the games if we're being honest. The awful footwork. The jump passes. The misses. The bad reads leading to INTs. The constant checks (kill! kill! kill!) into ineffective runs and screens. 

Bryce has been bad, y'all. It's very obvious. Yes, the entire offense is also had and that's not all in Bryce. But Bryce is a big reason why this offense has been atrocious.

      I would write “give remmers tight end help” on a yellow sticky note and stuck it in shulas playbook the night before superbowl 50.

      Nothing wrong with it at all until you start telling others they are bad fans or not fans. But you are the good fan because you never say negative stuff about the team.    I did many years of that type of uninformed fanning because there really was no info and coverage like there is with the internet.    I mean, I used to go to the store and get Street and Smith’s annual football issue. That was about the extent of what you could get if you didn’t live in a big city with sportswriters covering and reporting.  There was no video to look at or replay the games and if you didn’t live in the market you could only rarely see your football team play.    TI have fanned since being a kid in the early 1960s, and as late as 1995 - ‘97 I lived in Atlanta and good luck getting more than 3 or 4 games a year on TV. No radio either. No print coverage outside of an AP recap and box unless they played Atlanta.  People today that have always had the network connection don’t know.    I wasn’t very educated about the Panthers until I finally got internet.
