Maybe.  Gets tough.  Maybe a lot of it is he has CJ Stroud to work with. 

I just love how well the offense is crafted.  Guys like Nico, Noah Brown, Shultz all have such clearly, well defined roles.  Great playcalls that show he has an understanding of the dance of it all.  The cadence is so well tuned.

See here's the thing though. I'm not a "Bryce Young" fan I'm a Carolina Panthers fan and I know football. And what I know is no matter whose name was on the back of the jersey for the Panthers offense in '23 it was going to be the same dog poo team regardless. The sooner you assclowns realize this then I will be able to log out and stay logged out in peace!

So because I choose not to live in some fairytale where Bryce Young didn't just finish the season with the lowest yards per pass attempt in the last 20 years I'm an assclown?

Okay buddy.

Sure CJ Stroud would look different here. But to pretend his arm talent that is clearly vastly superior to Bryce Young would not make defenses have to play us differently is just lunacy. You don't want to see the light that's a personal choice my guy.

Superstar QBs make everyone look better. That Texans roster was really bad until he got there. CJs just that good.

Exactly - he's elevating the talent around him.

Meanwhile you've got people on here arguing that if we just surround Young with All-Pros at every position he'll be good.

Young can't physically make half the throws Stroud has made in that half. 

Nope. When the pocket gets muddy he can't see down the field and even if he could he doesn't have the arm to get the ball down the field unless he has an airport runway to step into and through the throw.

Slowik can't fix Bryce. But if he wants to come here for our next QB, let's ride.

Bryce was already showing signs of David Carr Battered QB Syndrome. Not sure I have ever seen a rookie QB recover from that.

I do think had he landed in the right spot he might have been a mid-level NFL starter. I don’t think he will anymore. I am pushing all in on complete bust.

Yes...stroud would have been slinging pick sixes in low scoring winnable games against bad teams and defenses like bryce did earlier this year. You are so right.

    • Really? You don't see why a team can't draft a QB in the 1st round while then starting their former #1 overall pick over them while on the last year of their deal? It puts the team in a TERRIBLE place no matter how the season goes.  If Bryce sucks, you have to answer questions as to why he was still on the team to begin with, let alone starting over the rookie.  If he's good, then you run into the situation the Vikings were in last offseason with sticking with the rookie contract or the the guy who just performed instead of said young QB. It's one thing when teams keep a vet around as a bridge QB, it's something entirely different when that QB is still only in their mid 20's and was taken #1 overall by that team.   That just doesn't happen and not sure it ever has in NFL history before.
    • What is the alternative? - BY, will not play for less then his perceived contract (just like Cam Newton did). So you pay him top of market as befitting a 1st round, Heisman winning, playing birthing QB would get. Or you cut him. - Then we are forced to either sign a stop gap QB / previously failed QB and try to fix him or you spend a 1st round pick and draft a guy, basically resetting the team.  The reality is that we all want a top 5 QB. The problem is there are only 5 of those guys in the world and drafting, even #1 overall doesn't guarantee that.  The other problem is the NFL market. Young QB get paid. Even an average, young QB gets top of market deals. I know a lot of people here think we could sign him to an 'average QB contract' but thats not reality. Didnt happen with Cam wont happen with BY.  So we could let this season flush out and he is again a middling QB. But then we cut and restart or accept it is what it is (including compensation) and build a team around what we have.  My money is on the latter.
