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.

So he is top 20 if you just go by that list.  So for all of the guys saying he was playing "top 5" and playing "brilliantly" he at best was a top 20 qb. 

If you grade qbs entirely on passing yards then you are right.

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

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.

Taking garbage time out for Bryce is a net negative on his y/pg I promise.

just fyi this includes the 2 games he came in a threw like 4 screen passes late in the 4th to run out the clock after Dalton was benched in blowout losses

I mean it's not even like this was his worst game of the season...

I'm not done with him by any means but this feels more the norm for him than the exception:/

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!

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

Where are this weeks eager QB school posts? *looks around*
