Has this game changed feelings about Young?

Not enough to justify taking a QB in the first round given a weak class and when the entire team stinks and needs help.  
 

Give it another year, but even if we decide to eventually move on we need to put a QB in a better situation. 

Got to agree with you, try to fix the OL and defense with this draft and then look for a QB between now and the ‘26 season. Still hope BY can improve, but don’t see a franchise QB in him.

The entire team shat the bed. The thing that is most disappointing is that Young showed his negative tendencies and deficiencies again. I can't put the entire blame on him by any means. I was hoping that they had laid having to take a QB early to rest, I'm not so sure now.

I know the Oline stunk it up big time and didn't help Bryce at all. The coaching on both sides of the ball got owned. Do you feel confident that taking a QB later in the draft would work or in the top of the draft would be a better move.

The draft will have to primarily on defense, no doubt. Just not confident yet that Bryce would be the guy long term. Better to be save than sorry.

No. I said from day 1 that he is not the answer. He is not physically talented enough to justify the price that was paid for him. His bad habits absolutely kill this team and he just cannot protect the ball.

the Bryce from weeks 1 + 2 would have have completely folded and finished with like 80 yards passing. That he didn't do that is another sign of progress.

You consider losing by multiple scores and being unable to manage additional garbage time points at the end of the game without throwing a very ugly interception on his final drive not only not folding but a sign of progress?

And if you remove the 83 yard touchdown pass in the 2nd quarter he had 136 passing yards for the game.

By your standad we might as well bring in Kyle Allen and give him another look.

Nope. I didn’t think he was that guy even during his “solid” 5 (id have only given him 2 games) games.

I know we’re going to roll him out there next year; I’ve accepted that, but when we go through this again next year, and win 3-5 games, I hope we’re ready to move on. 
 

I don’t feel confident with him behind center.

That’s another thing. These 160/170/180 yard games aren’t going to cut it. We need to be scoring at or close to 30 ppg. That is a struggle for him and this offense. I know it’s not all on him, but he’s a huge part in why we’re not doing that.

Closing the gap on stroud my ass.

Saw that thread and ignored that foolishness lol. Bryce has been too terrible outside of the “solid 5 games” he’s had to make any declarations like that. Even the solid 5 games is stretching it out a bit. I’d give him 2/3 decent to good games.

Even with this being a “down” year for Stroud, he’s still top 7-8 in passing yards, and his 17 TD 9 Int season is miles ahead of Bryce.

    • Don't take this personal, but anyone who watches pregame or game broadcast on any of the four major networks & can't point out a dozen "experts" that Luke would do a better job than, is just not paying attention. IMO
    • overall agree on the draft grade as a whole on on each pick, but every time I read (and I have read it more than once) that we "gave up two firsts" for Bryce, I am confused. We gave up the 2024 first, but we swapped 2023 firsts, so we didn't give up anything there. We did give up our former first rounder in DJ, but I don't think thats what you mean as one of the "firsts" we gave up.
    • Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
