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

Edited by panthers55
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

    • Who is "they"?  Who in the media still argues that Bryce Young could reach the levels that people thought he would before the draft? I mean, nobody is going to come outright and bash the kid.  By all accounts he's a good dude and I think that is why you don't see the media come after him like they did Zach Wilson.
    • It started during the Denver game after that first drive. i don’t think the panthers got a first down again until the fourth quarter. 
    • The Panthers will finish with at least 7-8 wins.  So that leaves them with only two "smart" choices in my opinion: 1. Sign a reasonably priced free agent QB and see if they are better than Bryce Young in training camp - The issue is there will be very little options.  There is almost no way the Colts let Daniel Jones walk.  Rodgers, Flacco, and Wilson will likely retire (and is Wilson better than Bryce anyway?).  Winston is under contract with the Giants for another year.  That leaves Mariota, which I'm all for, but the Commanders will make a big push to keep him given Daniels' injury history.  Outside of him, there is literally nobody else. 2. Stick with Bryce Young for one more year - Nobody wants this to happen, but the Panthers won't be in a position to draft one in the first round and it isn't a strong class to begin with.  Mendoza, Simpson (and do we really want an Alabama QB?), and Moore will likely all be off the board by the time we pick.  Bryce isn't good, but we are still 5-4.  I'd rather continue to build the rest of the team than reach for a QB.  Then we could set ourselves up nicely in 2027 to make a splash play if we choose.  This is how we should have approached years past; stuck with Kyle Allen or Sam Darnold or Teddy Bridgewater and kept building the team until we were ready to make a splash.  But every year we panicked and did something stupid. There is the idea you could throw a dart at a guy in the later arounds, but IMO this just isn't a good QB class and odds are it will be a wasted pick.  I still think we need a lot of depth on the defense.  I'd rather focus there.
