Passing yards per game leaders

Bryce needs a perfect OL to have average to slightly above average passing production, as the last few weeks have shown. That's what we hang our hat on? Meh.

He may very well be the best QB on the roster, but that isn't saying much at this point. I hope he bounces back to have a monster game next week. The issue is, that's basically 215 yards and a TD for him.

Now post the WR's each QB has. Lets see were Bryce weapons ranks vs the same QB's.

 

 

 

The whole justification for trading what we did to draft Bryce Young was that he was so good we would not have to surround him with elite talent across the offense.

If we have to do that for him to even be slightly average then guess what? We need competition at QB.

He has looked like a NFL starting QB since he came back from the benching. Not many QB's are going to do any better with these weapons.

 

Bryce is no Cam or Allen. He can't carry an offense due to his size. Even Brees needed weapons. Get the guy some legit help then judge him.

What about other teams OLs?  Our QBs have been sacked 28 times (21 on BY)..  This is virtually the lowest of any starting QB. Mahomes is at 35. Burrow at 33... Jayden Daniels is at 37 and CJ Stroud at 45. Yes others are lower but that's because good fuging luck sacking Allen lol.

We invested more than $150 million and a 1st 2nd 4th round draft pick in our offense last draft.  Bryce needs a perfect team around him just to look better than average...

Bryce Young is not Drew Brees.

If I could put that in a really big font I would because it needs emphasizing to some of you once and for all.

For the record. More often than not Brees main weapon was his OL. And as much as we dislike Sean Payton his scheme was also part of that.

Here's the list of receivers Brees had.

Now look at the names. And ask yourself. Outside of Colston. Who made who? And even Colston is only 63rd on the all time receiving yardage list. Brandin Cooks will pass him within the next season.

Jimmy Graham was probably the next best TE after Gronk during that era. How you forget about him.

Did he though?  Or are we only remembering what he looked like once he had those weapons.  Brees threw for 4400 yards his first year in NO . . . with a rookie Marques Colston as his top target.  Brees didn't *need* weapons, but yea, he had them.

So far, BY has shown the ability to be a marginal starter in the league.  That's it.  Where we picked him is no longer relevant.  Is "marginal starter" our organizational goal?  I hope not.

Graham is overrated. Tony Gonzalez shits all over him.

Even Ertz isn't far behind Jimmy.

    • Not exactly sure that is an honest assesment of the talent he had to work with that year. Olsen had over 1100 yards that season making the PB, Stewart had close to 1100 total yards also going to the PB. He had Kalil at C who went to the PB, Trai Turner at RG who also went to the PB, and Michael Oher at LT who played well enough that the Panthers offered him a new contract the following year. I wouldn't call that a trash OL. He also played with a defense that was stacked with talent as well.   "The thing we are doing better this time around is actually surrounding our #1 overall draft pick QB with talent vs. asking him to completely carry the offense. I just hope that effort is leading us to realize that the guy isn't even good enough to get carried." Please.... Did you not read the list of names Newton had to work with his rookie season. I guess you missed it so I will post it again for you... Steve Smith (PB), Greg Olsen (PB), Brandon LaFell, Ted Ginn JR, Deangelo Williams (PB), Jonathan Stewart (PB), Jordan Grossn (PB), Ryan Kalil (PB) on the offensive side and then he had Luke Kuechly (PB), Jon Beason (PB), Thomas Davis (PB), Star Lotulelei, Kawann Short ( PB ),Charles Johnson, Greg Hardy (PB ), Mike Mitchell, Josh Norman (PB)  For comparison, here is who Young had his first year.  Chuba Hubbard, DJ Chark, Jonathan Mingo, Adam Thielen, Hayden Hurst, Ikem Ekwonu, Chandler Zavala, Bradley Bozeman, Nash Jensen and Taylor Morton. Not a single PB player on the list and most of them aren't even playing any longer. Additionally, his HC was fired during the season and the defense was as bad as the offense.  You might not like the comparison but saying Newton had to completely carry the offense isn't exactly fair to the 4 pro bowlers on offense who played with him that year.
    • That's why I say we have to keep looking. Even if you believe Bryce is the guy, KP and Grier are not and who knows if King is anything more than a gimmick player, we should be active in improving our 2nd QB spot. Season ending injuries happen, and you don't just want to roll over and give it up. How many starters have we seen come from the ranks of backup? Having 2 potential starting QBs is one of the best problems we could have. 
    • Eh, it’s more on how bad the refs are. Some of these calls against the canes are no calls
