I hate to say that I was right about Young, because I wasn't.  I stayed loyal through the offseason, but after the second game, I wanted him released or traded for a conditional seventh rounder. If this continues, I will admit that I have no ability to gauge a QBs expectations in the NFL.  None.

Same, I was out after Week 2

Alabama QBs seem to take time to adjust to the NFL. Maybe it's the system there, perhaps its the small number of games they have played before they get out into the pro levels. I don't know.

Tua took what, three years before he got the hang of it?

Mac Jones is still working on it.

Bryce, might be the fastest learner of the bunch. Although four games isn't enough to hang our hats on yet... but it is four games more than we've had in a long time. And it has been against both bottom dwelling teams and the top of the division and league.

His best games have been against his best opponents over the last 4 games. If he turns in a decent performance vs the Eagles, he'll go a long way to solidifying his starter position longer term. I still think he has some work to do, but it's been exciting.

Progress is good.

Unfortunately 1 month of QB play isn't enough to form a true picture.

Roughly right around a year ago the flavor of the month was Tommy DeVito. A few years before that Jets QB Mike White made a name for himself.

Need at least 8-10 games of consistency to form a true conclusion. Even then nothing is guaranteed.

Is it possible to include week 8 so that it includes the Denver game so we can have all games post benching 

The last 2 weeks he has 9 big time throws versus 1 turnover worthy throw 

If you include Week 8, he drops to 13th in offensive grade and 11th in passing grade.  

Still pretty solid.

Thanks

I thought he was fine against Denver given. They have one of the better defenses in the league. He was finally pushing the ball downfield and Legette dropped another one that had big play potential 

The INT he threw to Surtain is on Tremble not Bryce. The INT he threw targeting Coker in the end zone was on Bryce obviously which is his only actual INT post benching

The game has clearly slowed down for Young and he’s seeing a lot of things he wasn’t previously 

He’s making pre snap adjustments and throwing a lot of balls based on what he’s seeing. It’s not until you watch the all-22 that you can appreciate the strides he’s made these last 5 games. The anticipation/timing of a lot of the throws are impressive

Young isn’t missing guys running wide open down field or throwing interceptions that make you scratch your head. He’s a 2nd year QB and 23 years old. 

For the first time it’s starting to look like this pre draft brain talk might be real. I’m not sure what the Panthers end up doing next season but they’d be foolish to get rid of Young. If they want to bring in a vet and have him sit and learn more then that’s fine but with a few more years left on his rookie contract I’m 100% hanging onto him until year 5 for sure 

amazing what difference a month makes--well said, FF.

So all of a sudden everyone on here loves PFF now? you damn hypocrites I'm disgusted 

Some things are immeasurable, and I get that.  I used to break down film as a high school coach, and there was often disagreement.  That is what they do--they give you a number to gauge a player's game.  Until Billy Bob the Huddle Bitch comes up with a better assessment process, I will use PFF and not listen to the second shift experts who are only members because McDonald's has free internet.  😁

What gets me interested is that while he has work to do still, you can tell he has really been doing some work. It's quite encouraging.

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
