a good QB can make bad WRs look average, average WRs look good, and good WRs look elite.

imo, clausen can be that QB. we'll have to see (and hope) if that is the case. i don't have all that much confidence in the non-smitty WRs that we have right now.

their growth will come when we have proper playcalling. I full heartedly believe in the run but if you constantly have your qb with 3rd and long, they nor the receivers will ever succeed. When they are 8 or 9 in the box we need quick slants, release throws to the back out of the back field, easy throws. That will open things up, it isnt rocket science. Balanced playcalling is what are receivers and qb needs but that is beating a dead horse, and everyone knows this.

That is a fact!

The idea that great QB's make great receivers, instead of the other way around, has been proven over and over throughout the years. Nobody would would have ever heard of many of the all time "great" WR"s if they had had the misfortune of playing with bad QB's or on running oriented teams.

Name a great WR and you are almost certain to find a great QB throwing him the ball. That's one of the things that has made our own Steve Smiths exploits even more impressive. He is one of the few that have put up big numbers in spite of his QB and offense around him.

      Josina Anderson: Panthers NOT trading Adam Thielen

      I mean, no I’m not going to panic when he got 2 Qs and looked great in 1 and looked not great in another (let’s not mention the drop).    Yeah we finally have a team that would be considered average offensively around him. Let’s roll this season.

      The woe is me everything but Bryce sucks mantra is stale af my friend. Look nobody here is going to argue with the fact Frank Reich was not a good head coach. At the same time. Bryce Young is now in his second season with his second coaching staff and a handpicked young offensive head coach who has been known for working with QB's such as Baker and Geno. As far as the offensive pieces around Bryce we have the 4th highest salary cap allocation (that might be even higher now after the new Moton deal) dedicated to the OL in the entire league. We have 2 first round WR's one of them 8th overall the first time we've ever selected a WR that high in franchise history. And the fact of the matter is Bryce Young did not have a good preseason. It's not the first time it's happened either. We all hope to see he and the rest of the team flip a switch in week 1. But we should all be able to agree that the offensive performances we've seen from the entire QB room (Bryce included) in preseason was simply unacceptable.

      We have seen Bryce play… what… 9 games with AT BEST what one would consider NFL average WRs? You just can’t see the forest for the trees and keep going back to your lazy take of revisionist history.    he looked AWFUL Y1 with the worst coaching I’ve ever seen in the NFL and one of the weakest WR rooms I can recall. He looked awful first half of y2 and great second half of y2 with average coaching and average skill position. I don’t know where this elite talent argument even comes from.
