NFL's top plays from Bryce Young in 2023

Surprised they didn’t have to include some Alabama plays to even make a highlight reel. I think there were maybe 2-3 plays the entire season that I thought were better than what you’d see on average day from an average QB.

If you really wanna be depressed, compare the “top plays” from the Bengals undrafted backup QB. I can’t say Bryce is better in any way than Jake Browning.

I don't know...

I see a lot of plays by Tee and Chase that carolina receivers just don't make. Just an observation. But his running was fun to watch while it lasted!

It's just crazy to me that between the combine, private workouts, and college tape, that THIS was the guy to choose over Stroud. The blunder of the decade right here. You cannot tell me our scouts (that get paid millions) came back with all that research and concluded this was THE guy. I just don't believe they were that incompetent. This was a Tepper move 100%.

I think it was a combination of him being at Alabama, winning the Heisman, and sheep mentality. He had all these same flaws at Alabama, its just they have a overwhelming talent advantage most of the time.

I did not like what I saw from Bryce vs LSU or Texas. The BIGGEST red flag I saw in those games was he could not handle interior pressure. I was worried because that happens all the time in the NFL. He's just too short to see down the middle of the field when there's pressure up the middle, which is a death sentence for a QB. And he's not as mobile as Russell Wilson was, so he has no hope. Kyler Murray has shown WAY more in both college AND the NFL, and even he isn't a franchise QB. We done fugged up.

100%. The Texas game showed how Bryce handles the level of pressure he’d face in the NFL. He looks exactly the same every game in the pros as he did in that Texas game. I was saying this long before the Panthers drafted him. 

Meanwhile, all Stroud did was deliver an almost flawless performance all season, and stepped up in the biggest game of his career against a tough Georgia defense. You want a player who plays the best in the biggest moments. 

We don’t know what conversations really happened behind the scenes. But I don’t believe the Panthers PR release that entire organization was behind drafting Bryce Young. I had a feeling that if Bryce (expectedly) looked like sh*t, there would be coaches fired. And lo and behind, the most likely Bryce detractors were fired mid season.

I think Frank Reich was doomed the moment they selected Young. He probably didn’t want him and was too old and stubborn to change his scheme to make an offense to hide Bryce’s many limitations and flaws. 

But back to the original point, all of Bryce’s issues were right there on his game tape, but David Tepper and his wife didn’t seem to notice or care.

Maybe it's something in the water in Charlotte. I mean ... Kobe Bryant trade, drafting Kwame Brown, Adam Morrison, Armanti Edwards, etc. Something ain't right in that city.

The question they should have asked is what does he do at an elite #1 pick level?

    • So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre. 
    • Reasonable. I mean I didn’t see a clear path to relief this season myself. As I have typed already, I think the QB FA class is more interesting next season and that draft is supposed to be stacked as well. There just weren’t many options this year.  When you have Tepper to contend with you have to tread lightly around this unless you are 100% certain and willIng to stake your job on it.   There were a couple of outings that helped Bryce a lot in terms of  thinking maybe he can do this, and if you are a supporter you are giving them a lot of weight. You are likely to think just get him some more help and he can do that every week. Which I think Tepper falls into that category.  And the playoffs, division champs, regardless of the way I see that, the supporters will also give that a lot of weight.    And the big one, the atmosphere In BOA for that WC game, Tepper had to be soiling himself over that. If you pulled Bryce out right now you had better be right and your new guy had better make the playoffs and look good doing it or you will be gone and your chance to build your old team back into respectability will be gone too.  So here we have Pickett on a one year deal, and Grier and King. I understand it.
