Passing yards per game leaders

weird things happen when you take out bad games

Weird things also happen when you include garbage time games in your averages. Chicago and Washington he came in with like 2 min left. 

The remaining 9 games which he started, 1,737 yards, 193 yards/game. Still low but let’s all be clear the number reported isn’t correct.

Bryce succeeding was always going to be high risk/high reward. Dude had a ton of red flags going into the draft that teams just decided to ignore. 
Heck if he was a good short QB he would have joined a very short list, heh, of successful short QBs in the Super Bowl era. 
Since it seems like his processing doesn’t matter in the NFL all he has is a very average QB ability in a 5’10” body. 
Murray at least has an arm.

Passing yards alone says more about the offense than the QB if for example a team runs a lot versus a team that relies almost totally on the pass. Stats like TD to Int ratio, average yards per completion, 2 min drill efficiency, passer rating when behind or ahead,  etc tell me how he takes care of the ball and  handles pressure which is the most important element to me bar none. I think the jury may be still out which is why I still want a QB in the draft in the first 3 rounds, but Young is battling and deserve more time to develop. Isn't the rule to wait at least 3 years before deciding their value. Darnold took a lot longer but look at him in the right offense

Autocorrect keeps changing Darnold to Darrell.

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 ANOTHER QB.

FIFY!

How do you grade qbs?  TDs, wins, qbr?

Thats how I grade most qbs but when looking at b young i prefer to just focus on the greenbay game from last year and the tb kc games from this year.  I then compare him directly to patrick mahomes oct 20 game against sf and anyone can clearly see bryce young is way way better than patrick mahomes lol

    • My read is they intended to try and get points but that first run and usage of the clock was done to hedge against things going poorly. Basically they shouldn't need all that time to score since they had multiple timeouts. Dirting that second play put us in a no-win situation. Sure you can run on 3rd down but ARI had timeouts so they still likely get the same result.
    • Anyone catch Adam archuletta referring to him as a “young qb” like bitch this is year three players are in the Super Bowl by now. 
    • I never said he had a good game in the Denver game.  As you said we had a good first drive ending in Bryce throwing a slant to XL for a TD.  It was garbage time but the back shoulder throw to Coker for the late TD was a great throw.   Throws like these in bad games are why I say he "can" do it and has the physical tools.  The question is can he do it consistently, continue to improve, grow and become our QB of the future.  Up to this point that was a hard no but with a new head coach and Bryce in his 2nd year it was 100% the right call to play out the year and see if he got better.  He did.   Two games into this year is still more of the up and down quality of play and coaching but there is still plenty of potential and we have 16 more games to decide if it's worth it to continue down this path. I don't know what will happen but I know cutting him or benching him now makes zero sense on any level. I said of those last 10 games we were only blown out in 2 of them.  I'll concede the Denver game was a blow out.  So 3 blowout loses and 7 competitive games, 4 of which we won, all decided by less than a TD.  Sounds like a team growing, improving and getting better.  All I want to do is see where that leads and if those examples of starting NFL level quarterbacking can continue to improve and become more consistent.   Anyone with pride would retire?  Laughable.  Do all of you quit in your daily lives every time things get tough or don't go your way?
