They don't call deep throws because their QB can't see the receivers to throw deep. Bryce threw deep in college with a wish and a prayer because his receivers were so much more talented than the opposition. 

Hell, he cannot throw deep because his arm is not strong enough and he has to either tiptoe or jump, which makes it worse. IF he could plant and run into it, maybe, but that is not possible in the NFL.

Diontae is playing for a contract this season and got stuck with the worst QB in the league

He’s going to lose his mind soon and rightfully so

Yep. We brought a guy who is known to have a volatile temperament who is in a contract year and paired him with a QB who can't effectively throw past the LOS. The guy might be an asshole but even a genuinely good guy would eventually erupt as he literally watches millions of dollars of future earnings go up in smoke.

      This Bryce Guy (General BY Discussion in Here)

      By CRA · Posted

      PJ's completion % was 63% when starting games in Carolina.  Which I believe is better than Bryce when starting.  And again, 4-3 as the starter here and the LONE QB Carolina has been able to actually win with in the Tepper era.  If you ask a gambling gunslinger to come into blowouts.....they are going to go down in a blaze of glory.  Which he would do.  Yeah, he isn't good.  And gunslingers are supposed to have rockier stats than checkdown QBs.   So....why does PJ Walker have a better comp % as a starter than Bryce Young.  And for every knock you want to make about PJ, you can find something or a skillset that PJ does better than Bryce.   I didn't say PJ had good field vision.  He doesn't.  Tell me about Bryce after he comes off the first read lol.  Let me repeat, PJ Walker is not a good QB.  He is NFL depth and an in house arm.  Bryce Young doesn't belong in a convo w/ Jake and Cam.  He belongs closer in a convo with the backup caliber QBs Carolina was forced into playing.  Which isn't just PJ Walker.  But Kyle Allen.  Moore.  Guys like that.

      Oh I see what you meant by memory. I will trust my memory, I have looked a a lot of those ball charts for Bryce and they trend a general pattern. They thing that has changed that I have noticed more recently is the reduction in the bunching of behind or at  the LOS passes over to his right.  Aside from the quantity of throws recently since the running game has become a more dominant factor.

      Yes but you basically said you are going from a quick skim of those charts without doing the same for Bryce and/or Andy. So you are going memory vs. snapshots. That's not going to be a very comprehensive analysis.
