RUMOR: Bryce Young 'pissed' at being benched for Andy Dalton

I think it is funny that we give first and second round picks more time to develop than we do a seventh rounder.  In my view, a first rounder should have a brief learning curve and then moderate success by the end of the first year.  Were it not for the Green Bay game--when we scored 30 points and Bryce had over 300 yards passing,  one can see a digression towards the end of the 2023 season.  Between weeks 4-8 last year (one was a bye) Bryce had 4 consecutive 200+ yard games.  As you can see in the screenshot below, the last 200+ yard game is week 8.  If you remove the outlier--week 16 vs. Green Bay--not the digression in yards and scoring.  It was as if his confidence was waning and he was getting worse.   I think the demons were winning the war:

One thing I can say for sure. All this Bryce Young talk aside. The head coach his staff and these players need to respond in a big way on Sunday. Coming out looking flat and playing like poo is not an option. You guys got what you wanted now put up some damn fight let's see some competitiveness.

Bryce showed up looking the damn same this season. After a historically bad season I thought maybe he’d at least attempt to add some muscle but nope.

He either thinks it was everyone else’s fault last year or he knows he can’t play with the big guys. Probably a bit of both 

Kid has no one to be pissed at other than himself. He’s been utter dog sh!t since his very first snap in the NFL

He did.  If you look back at the screenshot I posted, he had a good game vs Green Bay, breaking is string of 7 games below 200+ yards.  Did he build on the Green Bay game?  NOPE.  That is when he began his nose dive into the ghettos of Clausenville.  Two of the next four games under 100 yards.  An average of 3.25 points per game.  Yikes.

That’s why Kiper was so fired up, he talked up Young all the way until we picked him, he’d look silly if he were this wrong. Kinda like he was with Clausen…

It's amazing that anyone pays any attention to him anymore. His whole shtick is acting like his opinions are stone cold fact and yet he's been wrong over and over again. Which to be fair, anyone who expressed opinions on draft prospects has been. It happens. But his whole shtick of acting like he's infallible and his opinions can only be failed by others not just be flat out erong is just supremely off-putting.

Yep.  In comparison, Clausen got 10 games as starter before we moved on.  He was a second round pick.  Bryce got 18 games. 

I watched the NFL Network's Good Morning Football (or whatever) this morning and they were pitching ideas for Miami's QB concerns.  I was not watching closely, but nobody suggested a trade for Bryce-they suggested trading for Garrapolo. They mentioned Ryan Tanneyhill.

What's funny is that he was THE go to guy for all that nonsense. Then some young buck named Todd McShay came along and was like, why are you the only one doing this? People were like, oooooh this kid is a breath of fresh air. One second later ... nope, just like Mel. lol.

    • Thielen was a "dawg" like Dan Morgan likes to say. And they replaced him with puppies.  The analytics are probably saying this is more targets for younger receivers they are hoping to develop, specifically the first round pick from 2025. The eye test is going to show a very inexperienced group of WRs that are going to have some serious growing pains, for a 3rd year QB who has not yet proven to be the guy going forward.  It's crazy how in the literal first game of his NFL career, Cam Newton showed everyone he was a star QB and there was never any doubt about that. It almost didn't even matter who was around him, although he definitely had a serious lack of talent at WR for most of his career. Bryce is going into his third season and there is still a ton of doubt, and who is around him is seen as crucial for him to have success. I don't like it. 
    • Everyone says AT was old and slow but the one thing he could do consistently was get separation. That takes skill and it's been a huge issue in our WR for years. And while Moore may be a great locker room guy and our WR coach may be a 12 year vet, he's not playing in the game. Vets like AT do what they do because they can see things others don't and exploit it. The DB interview I mentioned before was with Stephon Gilmore after his DPOY season. He was pulling the younger DBs aside showing them things you wouldn't even think you'd be able to tell from the way the receiver was standing.  Seeing what a DB or LB is biting on in game that can give you that half step advantage is huge and we don't have that experience in our WR group right now and I think it could end up hurting us. None of our receivers have lined up against NFL corners successfully on a regular basis. Having someone that can walk over and give you a tip to get a half yard separation can be a difference maker.
