Bryce Young Cannot Make Basic NFL Throws

He's not a YAC threat at this point in his career. Greg Olsen never was and we always loved him.  

Bryce went 5/7 for 74 yards throwing to Thielen today. He went 8/29 for 63 throwing to everyone else and yet Thielen is the target of your ire? Honestly that's just bizarre.

He gets the most targets. He gets the most catches. He gets the most plays dialed up to get him the ball in the passing game. He's not making big plays with all those opportunities. Why can't he be held accountable like everyone else? Not expecting him to run away from 22 years old CBs. Just don't fall down when he catches the ball.

All the couch potato GM’s and talent evaluators here want to judge Bryce based on one freakin season… there’s a long list of pretty good QB’s who sucked their first season then went on to dominate.

Yeah, but those other QBs that turned out good at least showed the TRAITS that one could see translating/developing further down the road.  Bryce, not so much.  Weak arm, short, small frame, H-O-R-R-I-B-L-E footwork--leading to limited throws and inaccuracy.

Burrow got better as the year went on before he went down, as did most of the bad rookies spare rare cases like Steve young or Brett Favre. Bryce could be good but it might not be with the Panthers. Really need a running qb to take pressure of terrible WR’s

If Penix or McCarthy is there at 33...I mean, that's tempting given what we've seen this year.  But it's doubtful to think a QB at the top of the second realistically happens.  

However, I don't think it would be a bad idea to keep an eye on one in the 3rd-4th rounds.  Some competition with a young backup with big traits/upside could be better at this rate.  And maybe we find ourselves a Hurts, Purdy, Cousins type.  Cameron Ward & Michael Pratt are the two I'd personally target.

5 catches on 7 targets for 74 yards

Everyone else 8 catches on 29 targets for 63 yards.

This has to be the most hilariously bad take of the day my man

I'm not high on Penix as an NFL prospect but McCarthy is intriguing.

    • Sweet jebus this is idiotic Yes, overall team success in this league, you need a good QB, but beyond just that painfully obvious fact, let's get into the rest of the stupid in there......... First things first, you say.. "if we need a good QB for him to have success, then why are you drafting that player with the #1 pick" Show me one time I've ever said we would need a good QB for T-Mac himself to have success... you can't, because I never have.  I think you're referring to the "he's bad enough that we then have a Top 5 pick to target a QB" part of my post, which is very clearly talking about said QB, not T-Mac.  The other way to interpret that is just overall team success, which again, wouldn't be anything about T-Mac or his ability to impact the offense or overall team wins and losses. I'm quite sure I could do this with a number of teams over the years, but I don't want to spend the time to do multiple, so I'll keep it to just the 2023 Vikings right now since you wanted to use Jefferson as your example....... The Vikings went 3-6 after Cousins went down last year.  And two of those wins came before Jefferson even came back from his own injury, they were 1-4 in the final 5 weeks after Jefferson came back. In those 5 games, Jefferson had 31 catches, 503 yards, and 2 TDs Having the WR you specifically called out didn't help them go better than 1-4 with a bad QB, even though he still put up a great stat line for that time period either.  It also didn't make that QB good enough to where they then went out and brought in TWO new QB's this year to replace Doubs and Mullens who started down the stretch for them last year. And that's with 4th year Jefferson, not a rookie that T-Mac would be If you expect a WR getting drafted #1 overall to be the player to turn a franchise as bad as we are around in 1 season, make whatever QB we're able to put in there be successful, and lead us to a solid season, then you are literally insane. We are AWFUL, we have a few young guys who could turn into great players, but we are so far from being a good team, that there isn't any player we could draft next year that is going to change that in 2025.
    • They might be ass but it’s the professional level like NFL!! I will take a win no matter what!! Still not over
    • So you are just going by what these analysts are saying. So if come draft time they say Ward/Sanders is worth pick 1 you should be good. The future draft QB class is always going to be projected as the next great thing until these young players start playing the game and scouts can see some flaws. Think of all of the high school phenoms that didn’t look as good in college.  If Manning does turn out to be the next great prospect only one team gets to draft him. Odds are someone else could get the top pick, especially if go all in on building a supporting roster. I’m never going to be a just wait another year guy, because there are so many variables. If our staff loves Ward/Sanders then we should just draft them with our pick. It’s as simple as that. I also might go with Hunter over TMac as WR1 in this class.  The roster has the OL to help a young QB, young weapons in Coker, XL, and JT to grow with a QB, and a RB who can catch in Brooks as a safety net for a young QB. Sign a vet WR, extend BC and our offense would be set outside of depth. Let our young offensive core go through their growing pains while we iron out the defense. It’s definitely a path forward.
