Makes no sense. Bryce Young as a rookie at times looked like a fish out of water as an NFL QB.

XL despite his issues with the drops was getting open and blowing past defensive backs.

Definitely noticing a tendency from certain people who harp on XL more than others.

And if anyone can spot tendencies, it's definitely the person who displays them more than anyone else.

I call it like I see it. When a player plays poorly or makes a stupid mistake I acknowledge it. Did so when XL got himself ejected in preseason.

But there's definitely a lack of consistency when people relentlessly attack a WR who has yet to play a single game in his second season yet make every excuse for the starting QB.

I haven't seen much of that, but I'm not on here as often as others. I think people relentlessly attacked the starting QB when he deserved it and when he didn't, and the now second-year WR who looked noticeably worse than the UDFA WR behind him on the depth chart probably deserved a good bit of criticism. I hope they both do a great job and I'm rooting for them. But I didn't see any unnecessary vitriol toward XL. People calling him out for looking unprepared and dropping important passes were stating facts.

At the end of the day success of each is dependent on the other. And also at the end of the day as the third year QB the first overall pick and the face of the franchise the onus is on our QB to guide the young WR's. They have to elevate each other.

This is my most disappointing pre-season since Cam and Olsen....

 

Just terrible.

 

FYI this brainy bunch cut COker, Richardson, and Mays last year at this time......... Mays plays under a 3.3 million deal this year, if he wasn't cut it would have been less than 1 million.

 

fuging brilliant with staff decisions, not only are they vastly under talented but also vastly over paid.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By strato · Posted

      Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying.

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.

      Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.
