Steve Young. 
Bucs drafted Testaverde, shipped Young to SFO.

How did you come to this conclusion, just on wins?  Young actually went on to study under a G.O.A.T. coach and QB to become a really good QB.  Arguably the biggest bust even though he a FEW more wins was JaMarcus Russell.  Dude was out of the League before his rookie contract was up.

I just thought it was interesting that Steve Young was the worst rookie #1 overall qb ever, Jamarcus was bad but not Steve Young Tampa Bay bad.

Russell was on a better overall team than Steve too and only with a few more wins to show for it.  Russell was out of the league in 3 years.

Steve Youngs  first year with a close to full season was his actual 2nd year in the league in 1986. This actually looks not too dissimilar to Bryces season. 2 wins, 8TD 13 INT, 2282 passing yards.

The weird thing with Steve Young is he did not have another full season again until 1992. Went 14-2 that year 29 TD 16 INT and he won the MVP that year.

They keep showing on these broadcasts that HOF QBs like Aikman and P.Manning and others had bad rookie seasons. Stafford, Goff, T.Lawerence also had somewhat bad or mediocre rookie years. 

This situation's going to take years to evaluate considering what we gave up to get Bryce. Hes getting at least his 2nd season in 2024. Probably 2025 as well if he doesnt play like dog poo. 

Ive vocal in criticising him this year but I'll give Bryce some credit where its due. He's been showing some  better poo later in the year. He had 2 crucial game winning drives vs Houston and vs Atlanta and hes had probably his best game of the year against Green Bay today.

      Top 10 worst qb rooms from CBS sports. Panthers number 9

      Like many of the old heads, I’ve been here for a long time.  I got a lot of respect for everyone on this board for your dedication to this team.  We’ve all been through it during the tougher years. At this point in life, I’m not one to judge anyone’s level of dedication, or their reasons why anymore.  Time, and a lot of bad football, will do that.  For me, it’s simple.  We share a common bond.  For that, I love and appreciate all of you crazy SOB’s. For me, last season was at a minimum, entertaining.  BY lead a young team to multiple come from behind 4th qtr wins.  That showed me heart, and that he has the clutch gene.  That’s the wildcard intangible.  For me, that was fun to watch even  if it was mindbogglingly frustrating at times.  Over the past two seasons, we have progressively built a better team around him.  On paper, the defense should be better this season.  That’ll help.  Let’s see what he can do as the other guys continue to develop too.  Besides, his contract is cheap for a few more years, and we just made some smart cap decisions during the draft. Let’s see how it shakes out.

      I would very much liked to have seen Jake Delhomme's career if Tommy Jone no hurt Jake.  I just know that roster and the leadership were destined to hit paydirt but Jake was never the same after the elbow injury, and unfortunately he was the sole reason they didn't make it back to the big one.  I think that 08 team was the best in the league, and Jake masked his inability well all season til the Arizona game put it all on display.  I'll go back to the season prior even and say the 07 team was primed to be a competitor.  Jake was off to a fantastic start that year (for a Panthers QB).  They may have been a championship caliber club for a few seasons after 08 too.
