Handling Young with kid gloves

It's pretty obvious. Considering how badly he's played and what the team gave up to draft him Bryce Young could have it a great deal worse considering he's already gotten his first head coach and QB coach fired in the first season. The media is mostly still going to bat for him. He should be very thankful he plays in this smaller media market the daggers would be out daily in somewhere like NY.

I know I squatted 350 plus regularly back in high school.

These days if I squat, I have trouble standing back up 😕

I understand that last part. 30+ years of throwing iron around the gym wears on a body.  Squats and leg presses these days makes my hips hurt for 2 days. The older guys warned me when I was in my 20’s and 30’s but I was convinced I was different.  That worked out well.  lol.

I came out of ten years of football with my fair share of injuries.

Then I decided to try martial arts because there were body parts I hadn't hurt yet 😕

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.

 

In the Russini article she said players were complaining about Young being coddled by the coaches but the coaches saying they can’t criticize him any more than they are without killing his confidence. The media for the first 10 weeks blamed all their asses for his play too. The other offensive pieces were probably heated. If I’m Adm Theilen or Tyler Moton and I’m having a decent year all the media is on me for getting not helping Bryce but I’m in film room and I see Young is the one making most the mistakes I’m heated. Their stock next time they hit the market is now zero, no one will want any piece of this offense. Tepper did all this with his decision.

      My long and rambling post:   The guy is all heart, and I wouldn’t be surprised if he came back even better next year. He’s exactly the guy you lock up. The money won’t ever change the way he plays.  It was a big fumble, but what 1,000 yard back fumbles once in an entire season?  Pride. This team is FINALLY seeing guys who obviously take the game very seriously. Hunt, Chuba, Thielen, Brown, Horn (CB), Coker, Bryce (IMHO). Bye bye, Spider-Man. I don’t see these dudes being OK with teammates half-assing practice or in games. I can see Brown and Horn coming over to talk to somebody.  Good team? Ummm, maybe, but will still likely lose more close games than they win unless this last draft turns in to LOB part 2. That’s a stretch.  Pretty good/decent team. Yes. They finished the season as a pretty good team. I know I sound like a broken record harping back to it, but going in to ATL and putting a 40 burger on them en route to an OT win. A bad Panthers team would have had their brakes beaten off. We’ve seen it.  Rose colored glasses on and bonging a 40 of hopium: There are watershed moments that occur that change the course of franchises, both good and bad. If Fox doesn’t pull Rodney at halftime, the epic journey that was 2003 never happens. On the negative side, Cam taking that one hit from Watt was the end of any and all Panthers relevancy and we’ve been the biggest losers in all of pro sports as a result. Watershed moments. LOB draft. Vinny goes down and the goat is born.  Will the ATL game be the spark that this franchise has desperately needed? Could it be that they hit the mega million jackpot with Princley and Scourton as eat QBs for breakfast? Sure would be nice having 2 all-pro edge guys on the cheap for the next 4 years.  A lot of unknowns, but at least it actually feels  fun again.

      Maybe faked was too strong of a word.  "Milked" may be the better way to call it.
