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

    • For Bryce’s obvious shortcomings (bad pun), there is upside to his game. This isn’t being a homer or apologists, but I like to consider myself fair in criticism.  He’s far tougher than I ever thought he’d be. I really thought homie would have been broken in half by now. I don’t know how he’s not, but he’s not.  He is prone to turning the ball over early in games which digs a huge hole the team is not built to come back from, but dude DOES come up with crucial first down in crucial situations. It’s NEVER pretty, but he just kind of has the shining. He gets bailed out LOTS, and the team still loses games because of him, but he’s a bit of an enigma. He’s a turnover machine that is clutch in big moments.  He’s a smart/elusive cat. He kind of has to be with his limitations. His audibles are almost always correct and he understands coverages. I don’t see him getting fooled too frequently. His turnovers are almost never the ‘damnit Jake/Cam!’ brand we have been accustomed to. They are ALWAYS due to his size/strength limitations.  Strip sacks that shouldn’t be. Picks that happened because he just don’t got that NFL arm. He is still prone to panicking and the wheels can and do fall off at a much higher rate than his peers.  The team is winning on the backs of the defense, running game and special teams… but they’re winning, and unbelievably 1 game behind Tampa. As long as this is happening and Bryce doesn’t go full meltdown, Dave is going to keep him in. He is not getting pulled. 
    • This was a terrible podcast. A bunch of uninformed homers that had worse takes than the bottom 10% of the Huddle. I listened to a handful of podcasts this past offseason in search of new Panthers material since John Ellis doesn't do his pod anymore and The 4 Man Rush don't either. Immediately deleted it after the handful I listened to. Truly terrible.
    • The NFC South was so bad it sent a team with a losing record to the Playoffs that year. Wilks had players playing hard at the end but let’s not act like that was a good season. That season hurts even more now that we see in hindsight how good our QB situation was. We just didn’t know it.
