Bryce Young May Be The Answer

[Donald LaFell]

I’m happy that he is no longer is playing historically bad. I’m also happy that the team is looking better. He’s thrown a good number of perfect balls that guys have dropped. 
 

I don’t think Bryce is the answer at QB. I think his ceiling is under an acceptable level of play for a franchise QB. I’m happy to be wrong as long as it benefits the team. I’d much rather trade him than pay a starting QB salary to him.

He makes special plays but passes for less then 50 yards 

If you look at the statistics it can be deceiving. He made critical plays when he had to. I had rather have a win if he only had 50 yards passing than a loss and a 300 yard game. He is gaining more confidence. It has been a long time since the Panthers scored 36 points.

Great. After last week Levis had more yards, more TD passes, a better completion percentage, the same number of wins and was benched for mason rudolph. 

He didn't just have Tyler Boyd though did he

Today he missed a wide open pass to the flat that would have sealed the game in the fourth. He then tripped on third down in overtime. And even his td drive in the fourth was sandwiched by three and outs. 

don’t worry about Bryce young throwing for 300 yards. He’s done it once and it was last season. 

the panthers scored 36 points in September of this year.

Yes, and the kicker missed an extra point that would have won it without overtime. I have not read anything about him. If I remember on the trip Christensen stepped back into him.

Yes, and the refs gifted the Panthers a TD on their first drive.

it is a useless exercise to point to something in the first quarter that would have changed every other decision that occurred after it unless you’re literally trying to wrap your head around causality for the first time.

It is also useless to point out every flaw in a quarterback in his 2nd year without critiquing players around him for their mistakes. I had about decided Bryce was not the answer when he was benched for 2 games. With the improved play as of late he deserves a fair chance.

What chance he’s getting is more than fair, seeing he’s basically the least productive qb in nfl history who’s been given this long a leash. 

the only player who did as poorly as him his first season in the modern era was Josh Rosen and he was immediately shipped out of town. Bryce was given an entirely new offensive line, an entire new coaching staff, they brought a first round wide receiver, they brought in a big young tight end, they tried to trade for another wr but he has schizophrenia. 

Nothing at all unfair had happens to Bryce. Do not say a “fair chance” about a guy who’s done so little and been given so much.

It’s sad that so many want him to fail.

He has failed. He’s a failure.

Has Bryce lit the world on fire? No

Has he improved? Yes

Has he elevated those around him? I'd argue yes

Has he made costly mistakes? Last game for sure, this game no. 

Is he a finished product? No

Last year he was unwatchable and terrible. 

He was just as bad if not worse the first 2 games of the year. I had written him off and wanted him gone. 

Now I am cautiously optimistic. Since his benching He looks consistently better than 1/3 of the current starting qbs. Does he need work? Yes. But so do his weapons.
