So not getting training camp reps as a rookie and being thrust in is meaningless? Rosen wasn’t as bad anyway, had more td’s and won 3 games

Again you didn’t have that as a category in your 1st post.. 

at some point you’re going to start saying he has to have started in September during a rain storm and had 2 ply toilet paper in his house ..

This is an insane overreaction for a rookie quarterback tbh. He showed plenty of flashes and to act otherwise is silly. He gets at least one to two more years. I don't think any of Young's weapons would start on another team except Thielen who would be a WR2-3, certainly not the best weapon on the team. Offensive line was a mess, play calling was a mess early on. You have to give him time to develop and surround him with some talent. I know it's bad when you mirror it to Stroud, but you have to realize the talent gap between the two teams is pretty wide.

I can be disappointed in BY season but also point out the obstacles and failures of others in that season..

The talent gap is between the two QBs

I think this is the biggest disconnect between the majority of us and the "Bryce Guys". NONE of us think this team is good. NONE. We know the Oline is weak, we know the WRs are weak, we know the HC sucks, we know the OC sucks. But we believe Bryce sucks ... despite all that.

That’s cool.. Your Opinion.. I’m sorry that I can understand that most rookies won’t be able to overcome these obstacles and you don’t…

This is the same thing said about just about all bust QB's. There were barely any flashes at all. Not enough to matter, for sure.

Mostly what he showed is horrible footwork, lack of arm strength and a severe case of David Carr Battered QB syndrome.

Green Bay game had signs of elite qb play and a team and offensive game plan that hadn’t checked out yet.  Since then they checked out

Or it was lightening in a bottle?  What's harder to believe, that Young stunk all year was a fluke and the Packers game was the REAL Bryce, or the rest of season's body or work is more of the tell tail and even a blind squirrel finds a nut occasionally?  I tend to think the later.

You say this but aleast the majority of 1st round QBs are giving 2 or 3 seasons before getting the bust label.. Not 1 year in a bad organization..

Were you saying this before the season started? Thought the big reason to draft bryce over stroud was because stroud was only good because of the talent around him in college but yet he goes to a team with only 3 wins and was expected to struggle because of no talent but yet takes that team to playoffs.

The Head coach Ryans said himself last night they arent where they are without him but somehow houston is one of the most talented teams in the league all of a sudden. I have never seen a bottom fielding team get so much credit for their roster when only managing a couple wins the last few years. The gymnastics to protect bryce has been over the top all year.

As a team who has seen one of the absolute worst and then one of the best rookie seasons in NFL history, in sequential years, this is one of the more appropriate groups for seeing what promise vs. not cutting it looks like.  I really don't think calling it for what it is, is some overreaction.  

There's a level of eye test needing to be passed and Bryce did not cut it this season.  Simple as that.  This was Jake Locker level.

Now sure, I'll give him into next season but holy hell, this was just bad.  I simply can't get over the lack of zip and his footwork.  Not to mention, there are huge detriments that aren't correctable physically, he does not have the arm (I don't know how people can't see this, the zip is not there), and now, he is playing scared 100% of the time.    

This is a bad situation. 

I know he's a "good kid" or whatever and people WANT him to be good.  But he just wasn't. 

He has A LOT to prove in short order.

    • Bleacher Report trade and mock has us trading to 9 and picking SG Brayden Burries Charlotte Hornets recieve: Kyrie Irving and No. 9 pick Dallas Mavericks receive: LaMelo Ball, No. 14 pick and No. 18 pick The Hornets just finished their sixth season with Ball. It was only their second with a winning record, their sixth without a playoff trip and the sixth in which someone else paced them in win shares (Kon Knueppel this time around). While they'd surely like to keep building on their second-half momentum, maybe they're just unconvinced that Ball can lead a winning team. Maybe they credit that stretch run less to him and more to the addition of Knueppel, the ascension of Brandon Miller and some out-of-nowhere gains on the defensive end.   Charlotte should be dreaming big right now, and perhaps it believes a steadier hand at point guard is needed to realize that. Or maybe it feels it needs a little more time to bring everything together and thinks that task would be simpler without Ball's money on the books and with a top-10 pick in a loaded draft instead of two selections in the mid-teens.   Either way, this shakeup works. Short-term, a healthy Irving should be far easier to follow than Ball. You may not always know if Irving is playing, but you know what you'll get if he does: elite shotmaking, all-time handles, offensive ingenuity and the ability to work both on and off the ball. He could show this young roster what's required to win for a year or two (he has a $42.4 million player option for 2027-28) or even stick around longer if the partnership proves especially fruitful.   The Hornets also add a building block in Burries, who offers both plug-and-play polish and flashes of shot-creation that hint at star potential. In short, they could better their chances of winning both now and in the future while collecting both the best player in the trade and the highest draft pic
    • I'd hire him in a heartbeat. Hell if he wanted the job, I'd have Canales packing his poo right now and I don't dislike Canales. It's just that firing a 106-58 coach is crazy work. That's a 65% winning percentage. That's the equivalent of averaging 11 wins a season. That's incomprehensible for a fanbase That's never experienced back to back winning seaons.
