Canales could be Mike McDaniel LITE

I don’t see a Mike McDaniel comp at all.  McDaniels is probably smoking a bowl somewhere drawing up crazy new plays. 

Canales seems basically like more buttoned up Pete Carroll type.  A PG rah rah guy.  

seems like the standard huddle swings where one day drastically changes everything.

 Way too soon for these comparisons, and Bryce is going to have to have more than a good drive before I’m willing to change my overall thoughts. 

Maybe against on par comp too.  

I think preseason game 3 last year he managed to lead us on 2 scoring drives to open up that game.   It was backups for Lions then too.

Not getting excited over torching guys that will probably be cut Monday. I thought a TD on that drive was the minimal expectation honestly after the way the pre season as gone. Anything less was a failure to me. I mean they had to go for it on 4th down to sustain the drive. But it was a better showing then last year pre season game. I still think there was emphasis on keeping the first string off the field until the staff was really confident in them. But there is no more hiding after today.  Lets hope it continues.

been saying all along, the O-line last year was so bad that I didnt know what we had in Bryce, still dont know.  With a vastly improved O-line and a playbook that isnt written in half chewed on crayons, we're gonna find out.  I Dont think he is as bad as he looked last year, but we're gonna find out.

I have already said I don't expect bryce to be worse than last year mainly because it would be really hard to be worse than what he was just looking as his numbers alone. HOW MUCH better he will be this year is the real question and what I'm paying attention too. If it's minimal improvement than is just as bad as none at all for him. This is still a number one overall pick and I'm gonna continue to treat him as such unlike other fans.

Yes it’s preseason

yes it’s one drive

 

But Bryce Young looked ABSYMAL all last year under Frank Reich and coaching carousel 

I am the first to eat crow and own that I had NO HOPE for Young

 

 but today I saw a poised young QB, getting the ball out fast with an offensive series tailored to his skillset

 

I ‘THINK’ Tepper may have finally gotten it right with Canales

Getting the ball out fast? He looked the exact same as he did last year, to me. It was on drive, against the second team of the Bills, and he still found it necessary to flee the pocket and then thew to Diontae about 3 seconds too late, as you could see by Johnson’s reaction after he caught the ball. 
 

every highlight of Johnson that I’ve seen he looks disappointed. Must be hard to go from Ben to Young.

And on that fourth down play, Johnson was still disappointed by Bryce’s poor throw and poor timing. He got it there but that’s about the best you could say for it.

Damn...I didnt even notice that lol. I did notice that his throws still look weak to me and just don't come off his hands strong.  When the coverage tightens up that's gonna be a good indicator of progress.

I’d wager, the general thought process by most should largely hold true to open the season. 

D probably will look better than the O.  Saints have seen Bryce twice.  They have a good understanding of some basics about him.  Load up to stop Hubbard.  Bryce likes the short stuff.  Sit on the pass game.  Game plan to make Bryce beat you with the throws he hasn’t proven to be consistent with.

Already hedgin eh? Can you at least define what acceptable improvement would look like in terms other than arm strength?

    • Just chasing targets is a fools game. Chase averaged 85 yrds and .76 TDs per game his first year and 87.16 yrds, and .75 TD's per game his second year. Statistically the same. NOT an improvement. Puka saw no increase either. Yes, Waddle's went down because he had to share targets with another receiver - just like TMac will have to share targets with Coker next year so you have actually just made my point concerning Coker. Olave saw an increase in targets but Carr replaced Dalton and even with the increase in targets, his production was pretty flat (83 extra yards and 1 more TD for the entire year). And Wilson's number did increase but the Jets replaced the other two receivers and their contribution was significantly down from Davis's and Moore's. Again, nothing in those numbers should lead anyone to believe there will be a big leap for Tmac next year.       
    • See my previous post. You're also leaving out that T-Mac was likely hitting a rookie wall, like 95% of rookies do late in their first season, combined with the added attention on him by defenses, which in turn would be why Bryce looked Coker's way down the stretch.  With Coker playing like that to start next year, defenses will have to pay attention to it, which will then also make things easier for T-Mac. All of which is also ignoring that T-Mac will just be a better player next year than he was this year, assuming he works on his game this offseason, which we all know he will be.  If a player who was already your clear cut #1 comes back even better his next season, you're going to make sure you're throwing it his way more often, no matter who else you have. Again, Coker's added targets won't be at the expense of T-Mac's, they will BOTH be taking targets from the rest of the team.  Not to mention, we should be passing it more next year to begin with, seeing as we'll have both of them hopefully ready to go full speed Week 1, which again, will help both their target totals increase. Coker looks like a really good player, but even the most optimistic person can't say he looks like he has #1 potential, he has very solid to maybe even high end #2 potential.  You're not taking targets away from the reigning OROY who looks like a true Top 15 WR already to get your #2 targets, you increase both of them by taking from the others.
