Not sure how being bottom 10 in passing justifies so much confidence..

I watched him throw the pick that lead to the points we lost by. I watched the 55% completion.

No one was talking to you. I was clearly talking to the OP. However, since you've responded as though I was speaking to you, it seems you know you're wrong and simply refuse to admit it. Because of that, we have nothing to discuss.

I get that there are fans out there that want to just say "slow ya roll" on the Bryce hype, as there are still mistakes mixed in there. But no one can say they aren't seeing improvement, which is the main reason for this new found hype/confidence. No one is sold that Bryce is a top 10 QB, we are all just excited that he is showing a lot of improvement. The best thing that could happen to this organization right now would be Bryce continuing to improve and it seems to be trending that way. Instead of throwing these poo posts/threads, just say you need to see more before you're sold and most will agree or at the least not complain or say you didn't even watch. 

Also for those throwing mad shade at XL, i get that we have had a lot of trouble lately drafting WR's but we literally are watching Bryce crawl out of the darkness of QB bust hell. I don't get how you don't have patience for XL after going through what we've been through with Bryce. If he doesn't improve next year, then I will be out. I think we gambled on his upside seeing if he could be a 1, he isn't that. But he could be a great compliment to a 1. Give him time to improve. Dave and our OC have experience working with WR's. Time to put that experience to good use. His route running is definitely better than expected though not great/perfect.

Which part of the eye test did you like best, the part where here stared down the receiver the whole way and sailed a gift of a free INT to the safety resulting in a 10-14 point swing. Or the part where he threw the ball into the dirt 5+ yards behind the receiver on 4th down.

It's so crazy that you picked out the only two plays in the game.

Gee. You win.

Everyone calling him a franchise QB conveniently cherry picks only the good plays and ignores all the bad ones as well.

At least I can say he's made good plays, he's made bad plays, he's still inconsistent and is giving you the same production as Dalton did. Doesn't sound like a franchise QB to me but you do you.

Stats aside, it's all about the eye test for me. These last 3 weeks I've seen a franchise QB. If not for a botched snap and a egregious drop, we probably beat the two best teams in the NFL. Both times driving his team down the field to win the game. He's escaping the pocket more, making plays with his feet, making good NFL throws (still want to see his deep ball get better), reading the defense better, etc. I mean, just turn on his film from earlier in the year to now.......it is night and day.

Now, I have to see it for the remainder of the year before I jump on the bandwagon. But if you're still trying to downplay Bryce after what we've seen the last month, then you really do just want to see him fail.

The best team in the NFL is the Lions and they would dog dick this team

    • @ForJimmy--I watched his '24 highlights and there's a lot to like.  He's mobile, for certain, but it seems that's his default because he's so good at it.  Lots of RPO stuff.  He's slippery in the pocket, but too quick to vacate it.  I saw very few pocket throws into tight windows, which is the hallmark of an elite QB, especially at the next level.  Green is a playmaker, there's no denying that.  I thought his arm was adequate to above average.  I assumed a big QB like that would have a cannon.  Ball placement was also above average. He's an intriguing prospect, but I'm not sure he's going to end up a top 10 prospect and that's where we are most certainly going to be picking.  If Sellers doesn't come out, he's probably the next best dual threat QB.
    • I was right there with you. I hoped for the best and tried to support once he was drafted. But the media created legend of Bryce Young the draft prospect was honestly like nothing I've ever seen. For a kid who didn't even play all that particularly great for Alabama (Mac Jones was the better college QB and it really wasn't close) he received an insane level of benefit of the doubt. From his supposed elite football IQ elite processing elite preparation elite field general abilities elite leadership yada yada the guy could do absolutely no wrong. Even when he showed up to the combine and hid out in a hoodie refusing to throw nobody batted an eye. And even after that he was still compared to current and past hall of famers in the NFL and other sports across the spectrum. If he didn't play for Saban and Alabama it would have been and would be right now completely different in the way he was and is perceived. But again. I've never seen anything like it for other prospects that I can think of in recent memory. Others have been dissected in some way or another. Maybe the only other comparison I would make would be Andrew Luck. But Luck had the necessary physical intangibles that Bryce Young very plainly lacked when you sit down and watch the tape. It was crazy then and it is still crazy now. 🤷‍♂️
    • Yeah I didn’t remember how many guys were on offense besides him that were taken but did figure he was facing one, maybe two guys that would be drafted from whatever defense it he was playing. Then the out of conference games against smaller schools that are basically exhibitions, sheesh, you know they can feast.    The other thing is, out of those 62, how many really had NFL bodies at that point? Few of them. Most will be different players after a year of NFL training and body development. So you have to think about what the difference is. Even with the SEC guys that got taken, they will be better in the pros too. So when you factor all that in, and look at the Bryce tape and the Bryce pro day and whatever, I just will never understand why.
