Handling Young with kid gloves

Recommended Posts

I have been reading they have been basically giving Young a pass.  Handling him with an easy touch. Not holding him responsible for his play and mechanics.

Tabor is ready to start ripping an ass and putting pressure on Young to play up to his draft position. I wonder if Reich was being easy on Young and coddling him.

Obviously, there are many issues besides Young that plague the offense, but he is a big part of the problem.

His foot work is awfull and decision making is just as bad. Maybe they need to put more responsibility on him for this sh&t show.

There's definitely evidence.

Reich didn't want to coach him on footwork until this coming offseason. And there were some who reportedly thought Reich was babying him (sounded kinda like a Pete Carroll - Russell Wilson type situation).

I've said elsewhere I think Reich would have preferred not to have started him until next year. We've heard he wanted Derek Carr for this year.

    • Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying. 
    • Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
    • Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.
