Peyton Manning had a terrible rookie season, so did Troy Aikman and many others. Maybe their HOF cred should be stripped since they sucked their ROOKIE seasons.

 
Again with the ridiculous Peyton Manning comparison. Do you have any original thought, ever? Why not compare Bryce to Ryan Leaf, Jamarcus Russell, Jimmy Clausen, or Josh Rosen? They too had horrible rookie years. Manning played 16 games in his rookie year in a league that was much more physical. He threw for 3739 yards and 26 TDs, averaging 6.5 yards per attempt. Bryce at 14 games has only 2671 yards and 11 TDs, averaging 5.6 yards per attempt. At his current pace of production, it would take Bryce 35 games to match Manning's TD total. A much better comparison would be Josh Rosen, who played 14 games in his rookie year and passed for 2278 yards, with 11 TDs and 14 INTs, averaging 5.8 yards per attempt. That's pretty much on par with Bryce on all the important parameters. So where is Josh Rosen now?

A come back that was necessary because he nearly threw the game away.  He’s not the sure thing he was projected to be at all.  He’s not bad but let’s not act like he’s playing at the level people projected him to be at.

playoffs and playoff wins in years 2 and 3 is pretty fuging good all things considered

As someone that pays little to no attention to college FB, I feel like the hyperbole around the top QB prospects always goes nuts these days. It's not just Trevor.

It's a shame things have gotten to this point. There's nothing left for us but ugliness.

Look y'all we've got two wins to hang our hats on but the losses tell the story more than anything else. When you draft a QB #1 opposing teams should have some level of fear of their passing ability. That simply doesn't exist with Bryce Young. Reality is harsh. But that's it.

It was extra bad with Trevor because he was a freshman sensation.  NFL teams had been salivating over him his entire college career like he was for sure the next HOF QB.

    • Down to Carolina and Washington for Ehlers. 
    • Who are your top three breakout candidates for next season?    My three: Jatavion Sanders- Simply put he is the best receiving TE we have had since Olsen. We all saw his potential over that three game stretch prior to his neck injury where he showed a real connection with Bryce. Good route runner with glue for hands, limited blocking upside but he gives solid effort. With Tremble already being hurt I don’t see a reason why he already isn’t our starter and clear future at TE. Trevin Wallace- For a developmental LB forced into a starting role last year he  exceeded expectations. LB is one of the hardest positions to adjust to from college, and for a prospect who was widely regarded as very raw, surprisingly he was solid in coverage and only had an 11.9% missed tackle rate. He was overly aggressive consistently, and needs to work on his play recognition. But he is set up to be our best LB next season, and likely starter for years ahead. Even barring reaching his upside, his floor was clearly a lot higher than draft pundits assumed(Morgan can scout LBS). Cade Mayes- I am hopeful Cade wins the starting job at C this season. He may have been our most improved player last season, he looked like an above average starting C after he took over for an injured Corbett. He allowed 0 sacks on 327 pass block snaps. Corbett can not stay healthy, and at this stage in his career Mayes is objectively the better player. Mayes is only 26 and gives us the potential of stability at C, something we have never had since Ryan Kalil retired. Corbett slots in as a great backup C/Guard, and Cade continues to develop and gain more chemistry with Bryce and our stud duo of Hunt/Lewis.
    • Have to pair them like this for it to work, imo. Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Walker Ghosty - Chatfield    I'd prefer something different but that's probably what we end up with unless Ghost is traded to one of the 17 teams not on his MNTC.
