Starting Bryce Young

You essentially don’t have to respect a variety of vertical and out routes. He isn’t making them.  If he did, you would live win the rarity. 

He loves the same area over the middle.   I think it’s because of his height and where he sits in the pocket.  And it’s why every season has kicked off with his “go to spot”….being INT city.   It’s the same from his debut rookie season at Atl.  And outside of that you just aggressive play all the underneath stuff 

I was so cloudy and fogged about what I was looking at the first two games last year that I actually had pushed myself into believing that Tepper was behind the totally non aggressive offense with no deep balls because of maybe the OL and not wanting his little prodigy to be hurt. I could not make a lick of sense out of what I was looking at. After Tepper showed his ass and fired hm I realized that wasn't it. 

Then I moved to the Reich took one look at Young when he started practicing and went totally into a shell.

I mean, the Panthers painfully have exposed the one place on the field Bryce can see well and feels he has the arm to get it there that isn’t some bologna check down 

it’s why about seasons have debuted with the same INTs.  In the same spots on the field.  That’s what coaches do.  Try to start the year off with a bang and give the QB what they like most.   That’s about as dangerous as he gets.  But that’s it.  So you take away that one spot in the middle of the field.  He can’t go deeper or to the left or right (as those throws get longer and the ball floats).  I mean technically he could.  But those throws are all too hard for him with coverage and if he isn’t set properly.

Diontae is gonna knock him out before the season's over.  Got traded for a contract year and this is what he has to work with.  There are no words.

This should be the next worry. It’s only a matter of time before DJ becomes a problem as long as Bryce is playing. Bryce is costing him money

How many times has Bryce lined up under center in his NFL career?

I would love to see that stat vs total snaps and compared historically to other QB’s.

How can you draft a QB that you can’t lineup under center? 

Another issue that was long known about when we drafted him. He almost never took under center snaps at Alabama.

    • Adam Thielen had 1000 yards with rookie Bryce. I guess he's using that as comparison. Just kidding. Calm down. 
    • We definitely improved from 2024 to 2025, to me the results were less important than the roster in that regard. It's better. It's still a very bad roster but continuing to be better is the goal. The changes we are talking about at QB are about spending LESS resources. Not picking up Bryce's 5th is a big potential savings. Significantly better QB's have been had in recent years for half or less than what Bryce will get in 2026. To say nothing of an extension(the ridiculous subject of this thread) which would cripple roster building by saddling it with a bloated QB contract for an awful QB. The price for Bryce, I mean who is even making that argument anymore? I don't think you are seeing anyone in this thread discussing trading up to #1 for Mendoza.  We are talking about cheap backup and FA QB's and Day 2 and 3 draft guys. That is literally tied to the idea of roster building. IMPROVE at QB while you build the roster so that we can actually potentially attract a franchise QB or when you make that big move up(SF for Lance) that your roster is so good that the impact is largely negated.  After all, improving over Bryce is an extremely low bar to hit. Let's not assume that standing pat would have resulted in a sudden spurge in good decision making. Don't forget who was making all those roster calls at the time. Bryce or not, we would have fuged it up in some way because we had idiots at the helm. We may still yet. Also, it's easy to say we can't get in the habit of switching QB's like that but there are also plenty of situations where that flip was the correct decision. Richardson to Jones, Rosen to Murray, Fields to Williams, Lance to Purdy(technically some nuance to this), etc. There is no real danger of Bryce leaving and suddenly becoming an elite QB. We all do know this, no matter how big of a Bryce stan you may be. His ceiling is middling game manager. So there isn't some crazy risk of moving on.
    • Honestly. You can see it on the field. Bryce will literally skip a pass on the ground rather than throw a contested catch to XL. Especially when it's one where XL would have to fight back to the ball. Coker is actually really good at that. Coker lacks real NFL speed (not a small thing), but he maxes out in most other categories.
