hmmmmmmm......sounds like doubt to me. It's ok to admit that hype is what is getting him there. He may turn out to be the best the game has ever seen but he is not the 2nd best outfielder in the National League.

He's had a slump over the past two weeks that's drug his numbers down from where they were. Had you asked me two weeks ago if he deserved to start, you would have gotten a 100% strong YES with no hesitation whatsoever.

And you're one to talk about someone making the All Star Game when they don't deserve it, Philly fan.

I deleted my message cause I didn't want to muck up the thread (it is a seperate discussion) but you will get no argument from me that Philly guys have an advantage in All Star voting. As an example there is no reason Utley should have 3X's the votes as Prado and why Ibanez is even on the list is beyond me.

The worst has to be Rollins. He is a close second for SS and he's only played in 12 games all year. He has 14 hits. But it is what is. Let fans vote for all stars and you're going to get lots of Phillies, Red Sox, and Yankees.

      PFF ranks the 2025 starting QBs

      These arguments are getting more and more disingenuous from both the pro and anti Bryce crowd. Bryce looked very good for stretches down the final 8 games. He finally showed glimpses of the guy that was projected as a top QB pick in the draft. Bryce also didn't look like a top 10 NFL QB.  I think we are so far removed from Prime Cam that we forget what an elite QB looks like. I could tell that when people were losing their minds and simping for Sam Darnold. This season needs to finally showcase Bryce as a franchise talent. If that doesn't happen, it's time to pivot. There are very few recent examples of QB's struggling or being a mixed bag through the first three seasons of starting and then suddenly becoming frachise caliber players.

      Are you arguing that his height deficiencies and footwork within the pocket have not been a present issue clearly seen on his game tape particularly in the games he struggled in? Because that's simply denying what everyone in this fanbase who have watched the games have seen. It's interesting how hardline BY fans here quickly and effortlessly pivot from whailing about being victimized to becoming the aggressor and hurling out allegations of bias and hatred. And at the end of the day while Bryce Young clearly improved significantly from the first two games of the season the reality of the situation is he still finished 42nd in yards per pass attempt behind Mac Jones and tied with Caleb Williams and 38th in passing yards per game behind the likes of Gardner Minshew Aidan O'Connell Drake Maye and Will Levis. Furthermore it took Bryce Young 23 games to surpass Panthers legend Kyle Allen's 13 games worth of passing yardage in 2019. So if your argument is he became a head and shoulders better passer over the course of the second half of the season the reality is we're still waiting to see that growth this season. And there is nothing controversial or vitriolic about saying so from the mind of a rational observer.
