Will the national media admit they were wrong?

All we heard all week was:

  • "It's an organizational failure."
  • "He needs more time."
  • "Nobody could succeed there."
  • "He has no weapons."
  • "The offensive line can't protect anyone."

Dalton has proven for the SECOND time that none of that is true. But because Bryce looks like he's 11, I think people want to coddle him and give him the benefit of the doubt.

It was such fanbase gaslighting.

Unfortunately not.  I was already thinking about this.  Now they will just say that the organization Carr'd him.  Even though he has been the exact same player since game 1.

Plenty won't until he goes elsewhere and craps the bed again...and they will still play the ruined card. Seeing the pregame stuff today and it was all Bryce is fine and needs time while it's all Teppers fault his play is dog poo.

Dalton has played in a billion games and fits what Canales does. 

Bryce has never fit.  You would have to create something unique with great skill talent.  So it’s still a failure by Carolina.  They drafted a unicorn and thought he could be a regular NFL QB.  Square peg, round hole.  That is an org failure.

He isn't a fit but he isn't a unicorn. He is just a guy who peaked in school. He brings nothing to the table that's special in the NFL.

Outlier and unicorn are two different things.  He's an outlier, definitely not a unicorn.

      He can’t even learn to run routes. No chance in hell he can do both that and pick up blocking schemes

      Well he had essentially a 70% completion rate for almost three thousand yards.  Biggest issues were awkward and inconsistent release.  I wouldn't call arm strength bad, but not great.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By strato · Posted

      I see him being better and most of that is a few downfield passes that were seemingly non existent.    But it is what is around him that has dictated the trajectory more than the quarterbacking. He is game manager level and unable to dictate to defenses.  And even if I am wrong and he is the reason we ‘upwarded’, we are bumping our heads on the ceiling and only making meager gains. If it is an incline it is awfully shallow degree wise. Like a finance graph that tracks your progress and hovers around the rate of inflation. Barely breaking even.  Is that where you want your money?  We make up these deadlines expectations and generally he does the minimum of what he needs to do to hang around.    It does not encourage me to believe that when we get into a game against a good run d that we cannot break down with our run game, to believe that we can pivot to the air and successfully counter their strategy.  But they run it back again. Of course I am gunshy of a repeat of the same thing we have watched for three years.    oh, and yes his durability is his most impressive positive for my money. I fear the other shoe dropping on that and the contractual consequences that will follow.   Last  of all, too late to edit my mistake here but would like to acknowledge it: the last three years has done very little to convince me that I was not wrong in not wanting him. One too many “not”s.
