I'm not sure how hard we've tried. How hard can you really coach the owner's chosen one? I bet he got coached harder by Saban at Alabama than he has been here simply because Saban ain't afraid of stepping on toes.

I totally agree with you on this. Bryce fooled a lot of people since he played at BAMA, but even the anti-Bryce crowd will admit he didn't look this bad in college. He made a lot of big time throws in college. I'm sure playing on a stocked roster helped, but he still had to deliver the ball to the receivers. Saban wouldn't have started him otherwise.

If BY's game tape at Alabama looked as bad as it has thru 12 games this season I don't think he would have even been drafted.

Stroud said "I'm not a test taker, I play football"  wise words

The kid is everything a team could have hoped for at first overall. We're never going to wash away passing on that unless we somehow back our way into another Jake or Cam. But that's not happening with David Tepper thinking he and his wife know how to run a football team.

Would've been like taking Gabbert over Cam.

I’m no football expert but idk how anyone watched what Young did at Alabama and actually thought that his backyard style of QB would ever translate to the NFL. The majority of stuff he did in college is what NFL coaches teach guys never to do. Hell, it’s one of the main reasons the Chiefs sat Mahomes for a year. They knew his intangibles were off the charts but the kid needed a hard reset on how to play QB.

Bryce had so many blatant red flags I will never understand how he was ever in the conversation for number 1 overall. Only thing I can think of is “BAMA” and “HEISMAN”.

We’re now seeing the same bullshit propaganda machine go to work for Jalen Milroe.

      CBS does not think Bryce makes the leap

      By Jackie Lee · Posted

      Ranks Bryce no.4 behind Stroud/AR/Levis I just don't feel it with Young. And what do I mean by that? Well, firstly, I didn't see any flashes from Young as a rookie. You know, a few games-- maybe not even consecutively -- where he looked confident and poised and that combination led to quality results.  There was the 300-plus-yard effort late in the season against Green Bay that stood out. But even if that game was encouraging, it was thoroughly outweighed by disastrous performances. In my weekly grading project of the first- and second-year quarterbacks in 2023, Young had one "A" grade and two grades in the "B" range. All of his other starts ranged from a "C+" to an "F." Yes, that Packers game was impressive; it's just too difficult for me to see him repeating that type of performance on a regular basis because of his lack of physical tools. He doesn't have a strong arm by NFL standards. It's not brutal, but it's not doing him favors frequently. He's a good athlete but not nearly dynamic enough to repeatedly make defenders miss or scamper away from oncoming defenders often. His accuracy and processing are his two strengths, but neither are so spectacular they negate his hard-to-improve weaknesses. The Panthers did make somewhat of a concerted effort to build around him, trading for underneath separator Diontae Johnson in March before moving up in the draft to select South Carolina's Xavier Legette. I still think Carolina's receiver group will struggle to collectively get open, but the offensive line should be sturdier with free-agent adds Robert Hunt at right guard and Damien Lewis at left guard.  I don't have enough belief in Young's tools, nor the roster in Carolina, to predict Young making a leap in Year 2.

      I don't know if you're being intentionally dense or if it just comes naturally but wow.

      “99% sure” isn’t completely writing him off? splitting hairs don’t you think? sounds more like you’re being passive aggressive, and keeping that one little percent around just in case, so you don’t have to say you were wrong. speaking of icing up, son… LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL how’s that? amidoinitrite?
