I think this is basically worst case scenario…

Bryce morphing into just… okay.  His ceiling is incredibly low.  He doesn’t have tools to be great at this level.  It’s just not in the cards. 

and he ends up handicapping our plans to build forward by being functional 

a close game vs KC….Gardner Menshew did that too.  LV isn’t thinking they might have something.

It's the biggest problem with the whole situation. Any improvement even at all is good enough to be able to say we didn't draft an outright bust after what we gave up. It keeps going back to justification instead of just being honest about the player.

Keep playing like this and I wont ever say a negative thing about this kid again.

 

For the first time he actually looked like he belonged. I hope he keeps it up.

Pretty much this.

I have been a critic and detractor of Young since college.  He looked surprisingly, and yet convincingly good today.  Let's see if it's sustainable...  ideally, for the benefit of our franchise, if he can figure it out and parallel with Canales continuing along the trajectory he's on, we would have a LOT less to worry about for the future, obviously.

And then there's that...  so, like I said, let's see if he can sustain it and build on it.

He really did look good today, but I agree - the reason I didn't want him since college is because I didn't feel he had the tools to excel in the NFL either...  but, we'll see.

I think we need to give Dave Canales a lot of credit. I don't think there are many coaches that could have this team playing well

You're absolutely right. I've been kinda questioning his "feel good about yourselves" approach, but I'm beginning to see some sunlight here.

BY played way beyond just "OK" today. Tommy Tremble holds onto the ball in the end zone and the Panthers win today.

I would venture to say the only reason the Panther's were even close was of his performance. It sure as heck wasnt because of the defense or rushing.

I’ve done my fair share of bashing on Bryce, not today!  I’m not eating crow just yet but against a good D, he put in work and deserves credit.  He played like an NFL QB today and I enjoyed watching him play.

That’s the spirit mate

I think this franchise is done chasing to draft or sign an “elite” QB.  It just hasn’t work ever since we let Cam go.  At the very least Bryce has proven he belongs in the league and you build the rest of the team around him. When it’s time to pick up his 5th year option you take a look at his development and assess if you should look elsewhere.

      shough vs tmac off rookie of the year

      By mav1234 · Posted

      I'd edited to be more clear where he was ahead of league average, but realize it was easily missed, sorry.  I do hope he falls off a cliff production wise because if he actually continues at this pace it's highly likely the TDs come and then he'll be a real problem. Anyway, to the stats... Shough is substantially better than the average in completion percentage, YPG, and INT% (68% vs 64.4% and 237 vs 215 and 1.7 vs 2.2). He is pretty close to the average in Y/A (7.14 vs 7.1) and rating (91.63 vs 91.8). He is a bit below the average in TDs per game (1.3 vs ~1.5, which is hard to average exactly due to the number of players that are part of this stat), QBR (51.54 vs 54.7) and quite a bit below in TD% (3% vs 4.7%). In advanced stats, he's above the league average in intended air yards/attempt (8.1 v 7.7) and on target % (76.8 vs 74.6), while barely below is in bad throw % (16.1 vs 16.0). This jives with what I've seen - decent young player, playing at a level that looks like a veteran starter, on a bad team. I've always said (and this is true of Bryce too, I even mentioned it this year) that I am less concerned with 30+ yard bombs than consistency at 15+ yards, because you need to be able to threaten past the sticks. Shough is doing that. Vs us in week 15 he had ~one third of his passes 15ish or more yards and he was money on them, and that wasn't really an exception, he has had some nice throws outside of that.  All that said, dude is just super new to the league, and once film gets out, if he does have limitations they will be exploited. No way he can get OROTY. And thanks for the kind words - I am prone to hyperbole at times, but I'm also just impressed by Shough. We'll see if he can keep it up (I hope not, unless the Saints randomly trade him lol)

      NFC South is now ACTIVATED

      To be fair, going from 2 wins, to 5 wins, to 8 wins at least is a pretty big positive no matter how insufferably miserable a select handful in this group want to make everything.

      Yeah Moore is definitely going to be a problem.  I remember he was the favorite for our job at one point in time.
