No offense but, I'll take Canales over you 100% of the time.

Young isn't a franchise QB. He just needs to execute his high profile position.  Manage the game plan and do your job.

that sounds like a recipe for a .500 team.  In the NFL a qb has to elevate to become sustained playoff level team.  And good for you buddy for believing in classic coach speak

He is going to have to play under center some to open up the playbook. Throw in some PA and rollouts and I’m all for it. 

I mean, the overwhelming bulk of a Bryce Young offense is going to need to be in the gun.  He is too small to live much in a traditional pocket and his game just isn't a fit for it. 

they drafted Bryce Young.  It's time they realize it and act accordingly.  Which they failed to do as a rookie.  I mean, Frank at least liked the shotgun but that was it.  Horrific scheme and talent that didn't match where Bryce would go with the ball.

the Panthers drafted him last year #1 overall and gave up a fortune for him.   Now you got folks talking about him like he is PJ Walker who we plugged out of FA.

The contortion of our situation and how we got here is pretty funny watching it evolve.  He went from didnt need wrs because he is so good at raising others up around him, anticipation and knowledge of the game to just dont fug up out there.

For those wanting to know what he has been up to this offseason….

"Literally. Nothing," he replied with a laugh. "I was kind of away from football for the most part, just living every other aspect of my life”

So no attention to footwork all offseason is a concern

That, is such a huge job - completely changing from the ground up. You can do it and do reps all perfect, but will you trust it in a game or revert to the easy comfortable way you always did it?

That is what has to be proven. It needs to be even more ingrained than the old way to supplant it. And I don’t have faith they can do it, but maybe he can drill some reliability in.

So basically Young takes over or he's a bust. He's not Cam Newton and isn't a franchise QB. 

Whether we like it or not Young is QB1 and he's a game manager, at best.

Oh yeah the gun is going to be his bread and butter, but we can't eliminated all other formations all together.  I watched us run up run up the middle on 3rd and 1 from the shotgun way too many times last year.  Give me some runs under center, with some PA, rollouts etc to keep defenses off their toes.

    • As much as I despise Billy B, his philosophy on QBs is how I would approach things if I were a GM. You always keep looking for your next starter.  He has Bledsoe, who got injured and his backup ended up being the GOAT. Even while he had that going, he kept getting his next guy and developing them. When Brady got hurt, Cassel stepped in and went 11-5 and they missed the wild card by dumb luck. Who knows how far they would have gone if they had gotten in. Jimmy Gs career started in NE. There were others, but he always kept looking.  You can't be afraid to keep looking for your next starter, but it looks like we're afraid to look for more than a marginal one. If you're going to offer a $25m contract with incentives, that screams marginal QB. It also screams you're just a transition until we find our guy. After a 10 or 11 win season, he's not accepting that offer. And then you're in a Daniel Jones situation. Do you pay for a year of success and pray it wasn't a one year wonder?  To this point, Bryce has really produced nothing, yet for whatever reason, our FO has not even sniffed at the idea that we need a real QB room with real QBs. Dalton was never starter potential, Plummer was a joke. KP certainly isn't, neither is Grier.  Our approach to the QB room needs to be one of strength not fear. Bring in guys who can compete or who you think can compete. This is THE elite position, in an elite sport, paid premium salary, where production matters. Either you produce or you can lose your job. It's not mean, it's just the reality of the position.  And I'm really just tired of our candy ass approach to it. 
    • If you plug Bryce onto the Pro Bowl roster you might have a chance to compete for a SB. If he's surrounded by top tier talent with a top tier defense on the other side, a field flipping punter, and a kicker good from 60+ you might have a chance. But that means you basically have to recreate Saban's Bama in the NFL and that's impossible... and Bryce couldn't win a championship in that environment either. What the Panthers didn't realize when they got so obsessed with his "PG mentality" was that what they were looking st was a "barely checks the box PG". The basketball equivalent of Bryce would be an undersized PG with marginal athleticism who can make the basic plays but adds nothing to the team in terms of elevating the overall team. Not a great shooter, not a great defender, not a great driver. Just a guy who can basically get you into the offense and be a matador on defense. Basically a placeholder while you look to upgrade the PG position.
