I know nothing about college players don't watch college ball much, but I saw him play one time and said he's a going to be a good pro. I have noting really but a gut feeling to go by on this, but when I get that feeling it's usually right.

I said teh same thing about D.Will and knew nothing about him till the draft.

But like I said it's just a feeling.

Pike is going to have to learn how to play under center. That could take 2-3 years. He has the size and the physical tools to become a really good to possibly elite QB.

Hopefully in 2-3 years he will be some good trade bait. IMO Pike is as good as McCoy.

Yeah we picked him up because of the value. Could see him being traded in a few years depending on his progress.

I honestly hope we trade Clausen and build him up kinda like Cassel because I know Pike is better, Pike knows how to win games where as Clausen does not and we do not want a losing qb, hell Jake knew how to win games but it was sloppy and we lost more because of his poor throwing ability and poor ability to read a defense

You are really smart. Have you ever thought about going down to the Sylvan Learning Center and seeing if you could get a job sweeping the floor?

    • I must apologize, my sarcasm at times doesnt translate well in text form lol. At this point I would welcome us signing him, Trey Lance, trading for Jameis Winston, asking about Deshaun Watson and playing phone tag with Tom Brady before I ever fully entertain a season of Bryce Young being the defacto Starting Quarterback of the Panthers.

    • We had a QB who could do that and its the last time we went to the Super Bowl and the only time we had an MVP. Once he lost his ability to do that he was out of the league. To filter out insignificant stats I will only look at QBs who have played in 10 or more games this year. There are 28 qualifying QBs. Bryce is 25th in Air Yards per Attempt at 6.4. Only Joe Flacco, Cam Ward, and Dillon Gabriel are worse (6.0, 5.8, 5.1). Trevor Lawrence, Patrick Mahomes, and CJ Stroud are the median QBs at 7.1. Drake Maye and Sam Darnold lead the league at 8.7. Bryce is 18th in the league for passes that travel 30+ yards at 12. The median is Caleb Williams at 15. The league leader is Matthew Stafford with 26. With passes that travel 40+ yards, Bryce is tied with three others at 21st in the league with 3. Only Jacoby Brissett, Cam Ward, Joe Flacco, and Dillon Gabriel are worse. The median is a three-way tie with Drake Maye, Trevor Lawrence, and Baker Mayfield with 6. The league leader is Sam Darnold with 12. Having the ability to complete passes down the field (not YAC) stretches the defense and makes them account for more ground. It keeps players out of the box and keeps formations in nickel or dime, less line backers for your RBs to worry about. Bryce is why we have 2 losses against the Saints. If he had the outright ability to sling the football down field we beat the easily, but he doesn't. So they crowded the box and our 2 starting caliber RBs with our top ~10 Oline couldn't carry the offense to a win on their own. The limitations of the offense fall squarely on Bryce.
