Bryce Young: The NFL's Most Aggressive Quarterback in 2024?

[NAS]

According to Next Gen Stats, Young leads the NFL in Aggressiveness (AGG%), a metric that tracks how often a quarterback throws into tight coverage. Meanwhile, Kansas City’s Patrick Mahomes sits at the opposite end of the spectrum, ranking as the least aggressive quarterback this season.

That's my quarterback...

Probably says more about our WRs not being able to separate than it does Bryce Young actually being aggressive.

Lolz.

Dude that's pretty impressive considering he's thrown 0 INT's in the last 3 games.

It's because he has too with our WR core

Cam also used to own the stat of throwing into the tightest coverage. We can’t seem to synch WRs in their prime with a QB in their prime.

We have never really tried to make offensive weapons a strength since Smith and Moose. And it baffles me

I wouldn't say they never tried. They have just failed every attempt.

This

Bryce is constantly throwing to guys with little to no separation which would classify as a tight window

Combine this with all the other grades and what not from the receivers and it’s impressive what Young has been doing the last month

The big time throws, the lack of interceptions, tight windows, pushing ball downfield etc

The desperately need to address the WR room

Don't take this as bashing Cam but I appreciate that BY can hit guys in stride. 

Cam was the best QB we ever had... but his accuracy and touch let a lot to be desired.

Cam could laser a ball in, but couldn’t thrown with anticipation. 

Bryce is the opposite.
