Both Murray and Tua bulked up after college, let's see if Bryce will take a page out of their books or will just rely on his brain power to get better.

Tua took like 3 years to fully bulk and most of the post college weight was not being able to walk for a few months.

Murray was always kinda stout.

The man hit the wights and put on some muscle.  I'm not a Murray fan, but he bulked up realizing it was best for his durability.  Again, let's see if Bryce does the same.  He doesn't strike me as a gym rat though.

True, you still have to give it a few years though to see.

I don’t see bulking up as a big deal. What would it do for him? Won’t help his arm or that disaster he claims as mechanics and footwork.

Probably make him a tick less quick, which he is not impressively quick now - doesn’t need to be slower.

And the reasoning, I guess, is because it will help him with hits, where he did fine last year at featherweight.

Seems like it doesn't help at all for his health and durability since he bulked up...........

He’s a nice young man.  I hope he and the team can generate some success this season.  

He needs a nickname, maybe that will help.  Never forget:  "Philly catches the ball. Corey is a nice young man."

It’s not a big deal, people are complaining just to complain.

The majority of QB injuries are lower body or hand related anyway so the argument that bulking up will make Bryce more durable is foolish.

Only Watson and Richardson suffered shoulder injuries last year and they are already much bigger than Bryce so the idea that Bryce needs to bulk up is idiotic.

I also love how bulking up is supposed to make a QB more durable and the two QB’s used as an example in this thread have their own injury history (concussions and ACL).

It’s all just a bunch of nonsense.

    • It's honestly pretty interesting just seeing this pairing play out. Canales’ offenses (Seattle, Tampa) are run-first, under-center, play-action systems built around defined reads and intermediate/deep timing throws. That structure worked when he had QBs like Baker Mayfield or Russell Wilson in a system that created clear launch points and sightlines. His success has always been tied to a credible run game + play-action gravity. You can see that with the Panthers team building philosophy as well. Coker and TMac both are bigger receivers that won't get the best YAC production but thrive as possession receivers in contested scenarios. They're not the best in space and creating additional yardage in such, and would likely fair better systematically with a stronger armed QB who can create better opportunities on those boundary 1v1 matchups with stronger throws. Bryce, on the other hand, is a spread-native QB. His strengths are rhythm, spacing, quick processing, and off-script creation. Asking him to live in condensed formations with long-developing play-action concepts just hasn't been his forte. And well, his boundary throws are limited in velocity which takes a big chunk of the playbook off. And I mean a QB like Bryce can still work, it's just Dave's offensive philosophy and foundation is very much at odds with Young's physical limits and his own experience. So it's certainly still a learning experience for Dave to figure out how he can mesh his offensive philosophy with Young's strengths. He's very inexperienced with maximizing Bryce's strengths with his system. Would love to see us bring in an OC with spread experience and adaptability to implement a cohesive system with Dave to allow Bryce to thrive, as it's obvious we're sticking with him for a bit longer.   
    • Only thing I really agreed with is questioning why we didn’t take any timeouts on their last drive.  I know hindsight is 20/20, but I think it would’ve saved clock bc they were desperate to score as soon as the opportunity presented itself, but I also think it could’ve helped the defense regroup and maybe give us a better chance to stop them.
