Just how bad was Bryce Young?

I never expected much out of Collins. Weinke was the one that broke my heart. There is zero reason he shouldn't have had an awesome career. 

Remember, the knock on Weinke was his age.  Played baseball a couple years I believe.  I never could understand how he didn't make it.  He's now a really successful QB trainer apparently.

Cam Newton worked w/ Weinke at IMG leading into his 2011 rookie season

He spent 6 years playing AAA baseball. Heisman at 28. He couldn't play under center well and he was most comfortable in shotgun if I remember correctly. The mental part of the NFL game was his biggest weakness...again if I remember correctly. 

He is coaching at GT as a QB coach and was working as a QB trainer for some company years ago.

Yup I was on the Stroud camp. If you watched the actual tape and didn't listen to hype, Stroud was the guy. People knocked him for not having "pocket escape magic" or whatever. That really doesn't matter when you can throw a dime through a quarter hole whenever you want.

 

But we have what we have now. I guess see what the kid (BY) has. Just unfortunate if Stroud turns out to be a generational talent. That would be the pick that lives in infamay for 100 years if it turns that way.

Nowhere near the years of good tape and production either..

His college tape is now inconsequential.   It has no meaning and serves no purpose.  There are now 16 games of film on Young at the nfl level.  Clinging to what he did in college at the best program in the country is moronic at this point

I mean, if Bryce Young played at BYU.....Bryce likely isn't the #1 overall pick.  Bryce had the best roster in college football to aid him.

Agree to disagree

    • Ha-ha, I bet that went through everyone's mind.  Admittedly I don't read all the comments in a thread before I make a post. Great minds think alike!
    • Cam was hitting his stride as a QB in 2017/2018.     This is why I think stats like completion percentage are overrated. As long as a QB is clutch and makes the throws to win the game the rest doesn’t really matter. What good is a check down stat padder if they’re a choker.  Until Norv Turner (and briefly Chud) got here we put Cam in high pressure throwing situations all the time. We also ran the ball on first down more than most teams in the NFL in the Ron era. Coupled with shitty WRs, all that is expressed in his stats. I also assume Cam took the ball in his hands on many occasions rather than trust Funchess to catch the ball.    It was also never Cams job to play the game like someone else. His presence on the field dictated the game in a way that is rarely seen.  He showed he could play the dink and dunk game just before TJ Watt. That didn’t suddenly make him better than his earlier seasons. He just got put in a legit under center  passing game again for first time since his rookie year with Chud.    Ron took the quickest path to success and abused the RPO because his ass was about to get fired.    Cam never got the credit for being the cerebral player that he was. I just think when you are legitimately a human Superman, sometimes the best play is having the ball in your hands. He was a better passer than Delhomme was. 
    • I don't think Canales has any problem benching Bryce or moving on if Bryce doesn't come out playing like the end of last year.  It's year 3 no more excuses for Bryce
