Bryce Young - Good and Bad, what say you?

Game manager or not the only way he can "steady the ship" for the time being is by getting touchdowns on the board. Maxing out at 1-2 passing touchdowns per game at best is honestly below a game manager. That's what any good backup worth his salt can give you.

Depends on play calling and if guys catch the passes he throws. It is a team game after all.

What does this have to do with Bryce? His scoring is just like it’s been his entire career. We have 22 games to judge his point production and it’s been remarkably consistent. 

I’m responding to saying that a backup consistently delivers 1-2 TDs every game.  
 

and TBH, there is no need to do anything else as a fan but see if he continues to grow and root for it.

 

His past performance can’t be changed.  The trade can’t be changed.  
 

He showed a ton of promise today.
 

 He beats almost every team with a game like that today.    I don’t know if it can or will be sustained.   But showing development is a good sign.  
 

And it doesn’t mean that he can’t have competition brought in for next year.

Hard not to like BY. Really enjoy his energy and enthusium. It feels like he is turning a corner and also making believers of his teammates.  He played well, hard and smart today. Lets just hope he keeps improving.

That’s absolutely not true.

The NFL has changed this year.  Passing yards and TDs are down.     Backups aren’t doing that every week.
 

Bryce has some faults in the red zone today but the 2 false starts killed two different RZ drives.   That is the onlY negative for him the entire day.

We had one passing touchdown against the Giants and one passing touchdown against the Chiefs today.

Yes a good backup can replicate that. And that is why Andy Dalton in significantly less games has the same number of 30 point outings as Bryce Young.

I am on board with you guys about wanting to be hopeful for the future. Today was a good performance to build on especially at home. But let's please keep things in perspective.

BTW the Bucs who honestly aren't even that good blew the doors off the Giants today after we went to overtime against them with 17 points.

Again. Perspective.

Like imagine if Bryce had thrown TWO tds like elite qb

I’m not on here saying that he’s reached his final form or anything.  He has a lot more to prove if he is truly the QB1 for future.

 Last week, he was OK.  Not good, not bad.

but in general, he is trending significantly upward from where he was.  
 

Baker is a good comparison for why it does not make sense to give up on Bryce.  The NFL is hard.    And people develop at different paces.

I completely understand why that’s frustrating considering the trade but it’s all sunk cost now.    Just hope he turns into the best form he can.

You consistently contribute nothing here.

I don't check the boards often lately but I can always count on your poo posts to bring the level of conversation down.

That’s called passing the eye test right against a good defense

Actually that's called a passing chart

[Mr. Scot]

Seriously though, he's certainly been good since he got the starting job back.

I'm still not ready to anoint him as "the future" but he's proven he deserves a little... reconsideration

[Davidson Deac II]

He had the best game of his NFL career today.  And fwiw, he has actually played fairly well since the Denver game.  In truth, I thought he was done, and still not sure he is the future, but I feel a little better than I did a few weeks ago.  

There is a part of me wants to throw out his rookie season, and just proceed as if this is his rookie season.  

[OldhamA]

He upped his trade value in the offseason today.

You may disagree or not like his delivery, but Fiz is one of the few knowledgeable posters left of this board.

With the game on the line over two drives, Bruce threw it away on a must make third down, threw a couple bailout DPIs, and completed clutch handoffs. 

finally reached the elusive 7 ypa threshold 

It was a bad day for you. Take the L.
