ALERT: 🚨 Is DJ Chark re-signing with Panthers or signing with Falcons?

most of this fanbase thinks we need about 12 receivers and that will fix bryce

I'm worried about fixing the offense no matter who is behind center. I would think all fans would want that.

Blocking isnt going to change the fact that his passes beyond about 20 yards are wildly inaccurate, the same thing was true in college.

Accuracy.

Bryce Young was easily the least accurate starter Alabama has had since Jalen Hurts.

Last season, he completed just 2/3rds of his passes (66.9%) — the lowest for a ‘Bama starter since 2017, when Jalen Hurts completed 61% of his throws. Before that? You have to go back to 2007, when John Parker Wilson was running for his life behind a bad line and an unsteady running game (holy poo, déjà rêvé).

There were many reasons for that stat. Drops by wide receivers were certainly a factor, and especially as the Tide got further into its depth chart. And so what the line. But much of Byrce’s stat line was the product of simple execution errors. Young’s early-season deep ball accuracy was especially a concern, and it took most of a season for that aspect of his game to be wrinkled out. On throws over 20 yards, Young “improved” by year’s end hit 36% of his deep shot. It was so bad early, in fact, that coming out of the LSU game, he had completed just 10 such throws all season.

By contrast, Tagovailoa and Jones hit between 49% — 59% of their deep balls.

I'd like to see his numbers when they had Jameson Williams....versus a guy in Burton who's looking at Day 2 at best.

Context is always important...most articles explain in 22' without Bryce that much weaker ALA team doesn't make a bowl game. 

We lacked the scheme, and protection to consistently challenge vertically, we will see. 

Stroud had a knock on his playmaking we found that was false, deep accuracy is also timing and reps. You can't say we had an offense that lended itself to that.

Completed at 36% in college lmao that translates to like 15-20% in the NFL, even Mac Jones was completing his deep shots at 50% in college.

Bryce is a bum, this season is not going to be any better, the only way we will win more games is by going run heavy and hiding Bryce. 

Lol @ any fan calling Bryce a bum. 

Thanks for the comedy. 

Even if Bryce doesn't work out. It isn't because he's a bum.

I know they aren't similar receivers but we brought both DJ Chark and Diontae Johnson in on one year deals in consecutive years.. I hope we get a lot more out of Johnson.

It's pretty sad because people were absolutely drooling over chark and Bryce in training camp. He ended up being way worse than I thought not even serviceable. People need to stop getting their hopes up in training camp but theres always a darling everyone falls in love with every off-season who doesn't do poo in the regular season

Johnson seems to fit in with Bryce better. Quick route runner who can get open vs a deep threat. Hope he works out better too.

Not me. 

We need that doctor that gave roids to our 2003 OL to hook him up w/ some HGH or something.

    • I saw an interesting point the other day about our type of situation.  It could have been wise to hold him off for 1-2 weeks, but that would not have anything to do with Bryce and you could easily communicate that from a PR standpoint.   Why? Well, we just brought an entirely new staff into town, new offense for the returning OL, and had wholesale turnover elsewhere.  So just run Dalton out there the first game or so to see how things are shaking out.  Dry run to make sure we won't kill the kid.  We weren't eyeing the SB.  Get a sense of the line, the receivers, the playbook.  It gives you a glimpse of what Bryce would be stepping into and a good barometer on where things stood sans him.  I suppose we sort of did that with Dalton, but that was a reactive switch and like @Ricky Spanish mentioned, it was against an injured SEA defense where we threw a ridiculous amount.  Who knows, maybe we could have at least won a game or two more that way.  You can adjustments prior to Bryce stepping in, better tee it up for him, and maybe we end up winning game 1 or 2. Last year was such a sh*tshow.  One of the worst seasons I've ever experienced in any sport for any team.  Absolutely nothing made sense together.  Happy we cut the cord early, but should have never hired that crew in the first place.   
    • Johnson is gonna want $20M+ next year. That's why they should have drafted Ladd.
    • It's like folk didn't even watch the game. Dalton took a beating, and barely avoided a lot more violent hits. No 35 years old QB is going to survive a season like that. Imagine him against Dallas or Houston or Indy or Detroit or New Orleans twice! He played better than Bryce in that 1 game, but he wouldn't have lasted half the season.
