Bryce Young - Good and Bad, what say you?

I'm of the opinion that he's been showing it the last three weeks. The two weeks prior to KC weren't statistically great but anyone with eyes could see the improvement. 

I respect your opinion (which is a very positive one, so good for you), but in my mind this was his first good game. I would even say a very good game. The previous two games were less bad than before, but not good compared to the average QB. The bar has been so incredibly low, so any improvement is somehow considered “a good game”.

But again, yesterday was very good, and hopefully he can have more of those.

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 

Throwing it away is better than throwing an int in that situation. The Chiefs players had to interfere on those passes for a reason. They were on the money and all would've been completions otherwise. Go touch some grass buddy

The two pointer yeah, but the Thielen in the EZ that moved it to 1st and goal, if that defender had looked for the ball he was in position to get it. He didn't turn around. Which a lot of times they don't.

This was also the first game when BY had more velocity on his throws, I seen a little mustard...

Plus the look of the ball was dang near perfect- balance, spin, height, angle, etc on some throws for the first time. 

That needs to be stated as well with this being his best game in 2 years.

If he doesn't run into Thielen, he catches it for a touchdown. Thielen was in better position than the corner. We don't know who wins the jump ball there.

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 😕

One smart move that Dan Morgan and Canales did was realize the offensive line needed to be addressed. As Bryce gets more confidence in his protection we should be able to see the true Bryce, good or bad. I am excited about Canales. I truly believe Dan Morgan and Canales have the Panthers trending up.

And that's what it was from the start. Canales wanted bryce to prove it undoubtedly that he is the starter with his work and play. Up to this point you couldn't honestly say he was the best qb on the roster.  And that goes back to last year. 

Until the last few games, you could honestly say he was the worst qb on the roster.  

I am still not sure he is the "guy" but I am a little encouraged by the last few weeks, essentially since the second half of the Denver game.

The "I like what I saw yesterday but want to see more" takes are all very reasonable and quite frankly I'm impressed with how balanced the huddle has been after yesterdays game. 

Benching 9 and making him earn it back was a great move by the org.  There are no kings, no anointed ones, just compete for you job on a daily basis and let it rip on Sundays.  lfg.

How did he earn it back? Dalton got in a car accident and couldn't play.

Until the last few games he was probably the worse qb on any roster in the nfl.  He has played much better.  Lots of games left but at this moment if I were GM I would still be drafting best qb available.

    • I'm not looking at any of those as a good choice. Willis is a pass and Jones will probably get a contract offer in Indy (and should).  Now, work out a trade for Mac Jones and I might be intrigued. The two best QB factories right now are SF and LARams. Grab someone from their benches and you get a quality guy from a prior high draft that might be reaching their potential. Everything else is a crap shoot at best.  
    • Nijman wasn’t terrible. But I wouldn’t describe his play as good either. I think he’s still best suited as a swing tackle off the bench. And unfortunately Brady Christiansen cannot be relied on given h injuries as well   We should resign Nijman, but we need to bring in someone else either in free agency or the draft to give us an alternative in the event he doesn’t perform. Free agent options are pretty bad unless there are some surprise cuts, so the draft is probably our better option.  With our overall needs, would be nice to shore up the defense in Round 1, but if the value that’s there is in a LT, I think you have to seriously consider that. If Ickey returns and can still be effective, I think you can move him or the new LT over to RT since Moton will likely be retiring in the next couple years. 
    • The moving goal posts for Bryce both ways is wild. But for the most part, this place is overtly negative. First, it was he didn’t show flashes at all of being a #1 pick: he’s done that for sure. Then it was he cannot throw the deep ball and we want to see him take more shots: he’s done that and gotten much better with his timing and accuracy on deep shots. Then it was he can only win with a dominant ground game getting 200+ yards: we haven’t had a ground game since October, he pretty much carried the offense and almost took down the Rams. I get it, you didn’t want him and think he’s too small and weak and nothing will change that. But holy hell give the guy a break. “31 other starters can do what he’s doing” You put a statue back there like Stroud and see how many sacks we give up in that playoff game. I’m not saying he’s a top 15 qb but there are flashes to what he can be if he continues to improve. The disrespect to saying he’s a bottom 5 qb is wild lol
