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.

    • Um, no, just no. Bills, Chiefs, Chargers, Ravens, Bengals, Texans, Eagles, Commanders are 8 teams that it's not even a debate, they aren't trading their QB for Purdy. Patriots, Broncos, Titans, Giants, Bears, Vikings, Falcons are 7 more teams with QBs drafted in the last 2 years that also would rather stick with them than trade for Purdy as they all have more upside than he does. Lions, Packers, Cowboys, Bucs are 4 more that would likely keep their QB's as well, age aside for Goff, Dak, and Baker. Panthers and Colts are two teams in the same situation, QB's who have both struggled and shown flashes to where the teams probably stick with them because they drafted them, but in a re-draft of all QB's, they probably take Purdy over the guy they currently have. Jags, Cardinals, Dolphins, are 3 more with QB's who probably have a higher upside than Purdy but come with their own question marks, so debatable if they'd take Purdy over who they already have. That leaves Jets, Raiders, Steelers, Browns, Saints, Seahawks, and Rams. Rams would take him over Stafford for the future of course, but not for 2025, and I'd think the Seahawks would take him over Darnold, but honestly not sure if they would take him over Milroe at this moment as they really like his potential and have him for 4 years really cheap. That leaves 5 teams that I see who would absolutely take him over their current situation right now, and a handful of others who MIGHT take him over their current guy, a far cry from your 20.  
    • Agreed. Also as soon as they received the top pick in the next draft it was over. Bears won that trade. Gave up a top overall pick got one the next year plus pick 9, a couple 2nds, and DJ Moore a proven young WR. Had their 2024 pick from us be in the late teens or later it would be more debatable IMO. 
    • Option A:  Pay your starting QB starting QB money. Option B:  Look for a starting QB for 4-10 years (or longer) while wasting the talent at every other position.    How many of the top 20 QB's do you think are worth what they are being paid?   When you factor in the last year of his present deal his contract is really an average of 45 million per year which in today's QB market is a very, very good deal. I wish we'd had found a Brock Purdy to pay 50+ million a year right after we parted ways with Cam.  Ya'll go ahead and live in fairy tale land where good to great (much less elite) QB's are available to pay. Just the fact that they had the chance to pay Brock after the disaster of trading up for Lance is a testament that when you find a quarter back you can win with, complete in the playoffs and superbowls with, you pay him.
