He’s 19.  He’s very raw.

I get it but unlike say route running for a receiver, I think ball carrier vision is basically a pure natural talent. You either have it or you don't. I just don't think he has it. When he gets to the NFL where the whole defense on the other side is also freak athletes I just don't think he'll be effective.

Yea he’s not an NFL back right now but it’s crazy watching these really gifted guys super Mario jump over future life insurance salesmen.

Summary of ND vs IU game IMO is found on the roster.  4/5 star athletes. 

ND: 58 of them 

IU: 10

Indiana just not ready.  Well coached team that still ain’t got the roster to really compete 

And yet, if they had better qb play, and maybe 2 better offensive linemen, the game would have been much closer.  The IU quarterback didn't have a lot of time to thrown, and when he did, he missed several open receivers.  Hit a few of those open receivers, get a little more time to throw, and the game is vastly different.

Sure.  But the talent gap meant less time to throw, needing a couple better offensive lineman, having small windows….vs a Notre Dame team that really wasn’t even playing great.

It's wild watching the media go crazy in the aftermath acting like we watched some great tragedy last night and Indiana/ND was the most lopsided game in college playoff history. It was literally two years ago when UGA beat the fug out out TCU 65-7 in the national championship game.

It doesn’t even rank in the top 3 of just BIG10 beatdowns in the college football playoff era. 

Mich St lost 38-0

Ohio State lost 31-0

Ohio St lost 52-24

and if you want to talk Notre Dame, they have been embarrassed way worse than IU was in the playoffs 

media went hard turn quick, now forced to go say maybe the ACC, BIG12 better than thought.  Nah, it’s just random hot takes after every game.

    • I mean I just don't understand the argument. Baker and Sam both have been pro bowl QBs post their time here. And you just said yourself that is due to him having a damn good roster around him and they are well coached. You're even saying the bad baker is still there somewhere, but he is in a good organization with good roster and coaching that they are getting the best out of him. Why does Baker and Sam get all that benefit of the doubt but when it comes to Bryce it must be a BY9 problem, not an org or team problem?  Hell I got a guy below you arguing with me that Chark/Hurst/Mingo sucked because Bryce wouldn't throw them open. It's ridiculous how far the stretch goes. 
    • Correct.  It’s really hard to get open in the NFL when opposing defenses gameplan and cheat coverage/routes on all your players because they know your QB can’t make certain throws/plays.   magically no one that comes to Carolina can get open or make plays with the ball in their hands…..it’s like there is one singular common dominator to it all.  BY makes playing defense way too easy.   NFL players are too good to allow one side to cheat coverage and not respect all the potential threats of a route  so you can dial up a great play.  But if corners and safeties just cheat coverage and know X and Y happening on route/threats….getting open gets hard when they just play it one way.  Getting open has a lot to do with the different threats a WR can pose on a given play.  
    • Kinda depends how you look at it both were 3rd round draft pics.  Nico was nothing before stroud and tank came in with stroud.  If both were on the panthers would young have them doing well and starting or would their stats be low.  I really dont know the answer to that.  None of the panthers wrs have left and did well either but personally i feel neither of nico or tank would do much on the panthers.
