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.

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.

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.

Cooper Rush 

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.

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.

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.

    • I feel the same way. Bryce hasn't proven himself to be so good that he would clearly lap anyone that we'd bring in the compete for the starting job. I think the team is actually afraid to do that. If Bryce goes down does anyone think Kenny Pickett is solid option to replace him?. We can control him for 2026 and 2027. The problem is 2028. Unless he takes a massive leap forward ability wise, I don't see how Carolina can justify paying B.Y. $50 million a year. So far, Bryce has not shown that he can CONSISTENTLY carry a team. He needs to be carried by a strong offensive line, running game, pass catchers and a respectable defense. If he's lacking any of those things I don't think we can make the playoffs in 2026/2027 unless the NFC South is as bad (or worse) than 2025. Unfortunately, athletes and agents have EGOs! When he has a chance for a 2nd contract his management team will probably insist on a "market deal" and feel insulted if they don't get one. That leaves a couple of options if his play hasn't significantly improved. 1) Let him walk and test the market. 2) Franchise him for the 2028 season if you're still not sure about what to do. 3) Extend him to a team friendly deal that pays him below the "current market" which would allow the team to continue to build a solid team to support him. 4) Over pay him and pretty much ruin any chance of becoming a consistent contender. The last option is the LEAST DESIRABLE ONE. The 2026 season is a pivotal season for Bryce and the Carolina Panthers. The success of the next 5-7 years could ultimately be decided on how well plays the next 2 seasons.  
    • Thank god BigKat can't buy it because I'd be gone immediately 
    • Drake Maye ended up putting almost 300 on them lol. Bryce was stunned from the beginning to end. I know that's an easy comp for the Bryce truthers but no one else put up those puny QB stats against them all season long.
