300 yards games will never be typical. He is just not kind of QB.

But neither is 100 per game.  Sunday's game was very windy.  Both Young and Love felt it.  

I'm no NFL QB but I can throw a football quite well.  Throwing in a strong wind is very difficult.  The shorter the throws the better chance you have of maintaining the zip on the ball.   The longer the ball is in the air the velocity decrease quite quickly. 

Young's throw that was intercepted was the exact route XL scored on in Miami, but it was easily picked off due to the strong wind.  

Love should have had two picks against him and both of them died in the wind.  So, while throw bombs is cool you have to take the conditions into account.

Defense and Dowdle is the ticket. One hundred to one fifty yards a game is Youngs ceiling. Let him use his legs in situations where he can get some positive yards. He will never be a gun slinger, throwing darts all over the field.

A "game manager" is obviously his skill set. Taking the throws he can make and not making stupid mistakes is his game.They can win with this formula, they have no choice. Supplement Chuba when needed. This win wasn't luck.

Keep Pounding

 

 

 

Nothing new, Run the ball and stop the run has always been the key in the NFL.

So many on here don't want a game manager.  They want Dan Marino or Dan Fouts to be throwing the ball.  (neither of them won a SB)

So it’s come down to this: To make our ‘super processor’ successful, we need a run heavy offense to keep the ball out of his hands and minimize turnovers, along with a stout defense that keeps the other teams offense off the field and make it a low scoring game.  Sweet.

Welcome back, ‘Fox ball’.

That is correct, and we all know it, but as long as the team is winning, however that may be, Dave would be insane to pull Bryce unless Bryce goes full meltdown. 

This isn’t really Fox ball. People forget that Jake was the prototype gun slinger and had one of the stronger arms in the league pre injury. He was never a dink and dunk guy. 

FWIW, Fox ball was good ball, and it won us a lot of games before Tommy Jon took Jake out for good. It was a good era that ended way too soon.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By LegioX · Posted

      Bryce has been in the NFL 3 years and still looks like a very mediocre QB. Most games are nothing but mediocre plays with a highlight reel every now and then.  He is a very INCONSISTENT QB and it’s very fustrating. He does not deserve a 5th year option, even though the Panthers and all the dumb asses in the front office will give it to him.

      If they lose the last three......

      By Joe Bear · Posted

      I’ve rarely ever been more sure of anything than losing out — but how can anyone say with a straight face “Bryce hasn’t improved, but Canales has and he’s masks his flaws”. You have to be so out of touch with reality to put one way above the other when discussing those two.

      Last night was the classic example of a visiting team just holding on through the wave of emotion a home team has at the start of a big time game. Bama’s first two kickoff returns really set them back as far as playcalling and allowed OU to dictate field position. The emotion of the home crowd fed into what OU was doing at that point, and it felt like Bama would not be able to overcome that.     Once the kickoff returner was told to fair catch every kick, the game shifted, as Bama wasn’t starting each drive inside their own 15. It was then that Bama was able to make some plays, outscoring OU 34-7 the rest of the way.  I think the last 3/4 of the game proves Bama was the better team. OU was just able to ride the initial wave of emotion to a big lead, but Bama held on just enough.  However, had OU blocked the punt on Bama’s second drive and scored a TD (vice a FG on the ensuing drive), things likely would have been different.  Anyway, Roll Tide!
