Well, our actual best WR is also part of why he was wide open, as they had him doubled with bracketed coverage instead of one of them keeping an eye on Rico running right past them all into the open space.

And he caught it when it got there.

Not sure it's hate as much as nerves.

There is a large portion of the fan base (myself included) that is 100% convinced he'll never be a legitimately good starting QB in this league.

While sure, I'd love it if he just flipped a switch and becomes one, as it's the quickest way for us to get back to relevance.  We're nervous when he puts up the one decent game because it might trick the team into thinking he can still become something and it gives him an extra year that he shouldn't get.

It's not rooting against him, it's fear that he's going to do what he did last year, just enough to get another season that he shouldn't be getting.

I don't think it is shocking that when his supporting cast plays well, he plays better.  We have more problems than just Bryce.

We seem pretty relevant right now.  Enjoy it.

It is in all our best interests for him to be the guy.

    • I am not sure it should be a ‘sell out to go to the SB’ season. And hope they don’t.  At the same time I was thinking you absolutely must find out if you want to pay for Bryce or not. That means putting it on him. No protecting and trying to hide weaknesses with the run game and a super conservative calls.  So I wish they would do it and find out, win or lose, 2026. No more developing. Time to do it. Let’s see once and for all. 
    • My biggest fear with Bryce Young is that he will always do just enough to stick around. He shows flashes and then drops a turd so the hopium is always there. Like his career highlight reel if you cut it up to some hype music and did a YouTube video would actually be quite good. His great plays really, really look good. But after that video you look at his yearly averages for completion percentage, yardage, touchdowns, and virtually every other metric and it is meh as fug. Like you know Bryce is gonna be 13/23 for 157 yards a touchdown and probably a pick.  I will 100% give him his flowers for his athleticism and ability to scramble outside the pocket. I haven’t seen the mythical “super processing ability” he was touted for per se, but he has shown flashes of absolutely elite awareness when it comes to scrambling. The little basketball move he does to shake defensive linemen has almost become a signature move. It’s hard to explain but you know it when you see it he stops on a dime and pivots like he is gonna hit a step back jumper and it has gotten him out of a lot of trouble.  I sincerely, truly, as a vocal Bryce HATER, hope that since we are obviously running with him next year the coaching staff actually tailors plays around his strengths. He needs to be in a pure spread IMO. His size is much less of a hindrance when he can play QB in open space. I feel like most of his highlight reel is from scrambles and play action/bootlegs.
