His footwork is a way bigger problem than his arm strength. I would probably guess that you aren't sharp enough to see that is leading to a lot of those issues you think are arm strength. His footwork is easily his biggest issue.

Don't get me wrong, he is not in the upper half of the NFL starters in arm strength. Probably bottom 5-10. Not enough of a problem to be the thing that causes most of his issues.

Even with perfect textbook footwork, he doesn't have the arm strength needed to make the throws at this level, that's the problem.  Arm strength can overcome poor footwork, great footwork can't overcome an inadequate arm strength.

Yes it can help, and yes he has footwork issues, but those are fixable issues, you can't make this kid grow a howitzer out of his right shoulder.  Sure he can add muscle, but his frame will only allow so much of it, he will never even have an average NFL arm strength, not in today's NFL.

I'll admit there are a lot of fixable things with Bryce and ways he can improve (I don't necessarily think he will, but it's possible).

But his arm strength just isn't one of them, it will always be one of the worst in the leagues, it's not really debatable to anyone who has watched him play with an objective eye.

Look, I can't make you see things you just can't. That is very clearly a you issue.

There is a reason that basically no scout or pundit said he had arm strength issues, because he doesn't. Plenty of arm strength for the NFL.

      Evero?!?! Should he be on the Hot Seat

      By CRA · Posted

      Night and day difference in the front office investements.  Since Morgan has been in the FO (5 years)....4 out of 5 first round picks have been offensive players.  The one defensive pick was a corner. Expand it out to the first 2 rounds? 7 out of the 9 picks have been offensive.  That IMO is why our D sucks so bad.   You build defenses up front.   Carolina hasn't been investing there.  Ron's first 5 years? 3 of the 5 first round picks were defensive players.  Expand it all to include second rounders  7 of the 10 picks were defensive.  All front 7 players.

      I think he gets this year to show what he can do.  Last year, we had a lot of injuries. This year, we should have some players, even if we lose one or two.  It's the first preseason game.  Some of the starters weren't even in it.  There is no scheming or game planning.  Let's see how guys do when it counts. I think we have a GM that knows a thing or two about defense.  Let it play out.

      give some props to Andy Dalton

      By NorthTryon · Posted

      I was ok with the mentor aspect of keeping Dalton, but wow has he fallen off the deep end. The slow behind the WR interception was awful. I keep hearing our WRs created no separation, but on that particular play dude was wide open and Dalton couldn't get it to him with a clean pocket. Next year, we need to address the backup QB spot haaaaaard!
