You're letting your hatred for him cloud your judgement, you can't say with 100% certainty that Bryce can't play anywhere else

oh is this what bryce defenders have been reduced to?

you're correct; I cannot tell the future. But I can see what's going on and through deduction and just understanding how things work I can say that Bryce isn't an appealing reclamation project for all of the reasons he never should have been drafted.

I mean yes it's possible the jets could roll the dice on him like they did after the Broncos cut The Golden Calf of Bristol but if that's where we're at with Bryce's post Carolina career then what are we even talking about

I have seen where people say he makes great throws in practice. But then he has always looked good in shorts and with no contact.  It is a different thing when he is worried about being hit. Just a little bit more challenging.  

I have a working theory that part of the reason Hooker and White are no longer around is because they were showing up Young in practice.

They can actually zip the ball - Dalton and Young can't. It will have stood out like a sore thumb.

That jives with my theory of why we don’t have a younger backup that can push him, though not so much because the players see it but because the fans would make a fuss. 
Imagine right now if there were one of those on the roster….

"After watching their offense sputter most of the afternoon in a loss to the hapless Saints, something has become evident: The Panthers were winning in spite of Bryce Young, not because of him. He isn't the long-term answer under center in Carolina. The 2023 first overall pick completed 68 percent of his passes Sunday, but for a paltry 125 yards with an interception. It was the fifth time in 10 games that he has failed to eclipse 150 passing yards."

Lol 50% of his last 10 starts are sub 150 yards...

Score: 17-7 loss vs. New Orleans Saints

Stat Line: 17 of 25 for 124 yards, an interception and fumble lost

Without a strong run game, Bryce Young and the rest of the Carolina Panthers became exposed.

Young wasn't asked to do much when Carolina won four of its previous five contests—Andy Dalton actually started the game which the team lost. Instead, the Panthers leaned heavily on running back Rico Dowdle.

Dowdle averaged 2.9 yards per carry against the Saints, which placed a heavier burden on Young. The quarterback didn't respond.

"I think we were just putting our eyes in the right place, doing our job and just making sure our technique was right," Saints defensive back Alontae Taylor told reporters. "I think Demario [Davis] did a really good job with just bringing everybody in after almost every series and just making sure that we just did our assignments. And I think we did that, and I think it showed up."

The Saints were ready for the Panthers' offensive approach, and Young failed to make New Orleans pay.

Grade: F

What are everyone's thoughts on davis mills? He would be a definite improvement over Bryce next year then draft someone and let them sit behind him

He’d be an upgrade for sure ( so would just about anyone else) but I doubt Houston lets him walk. They seem to have reservations about Stroud and want a solid backup. Unlike our approach because we don’t want to hurt the lil guy’s feelings.

[strato]

I noticed him for sure. I favor grabbing someone’s backup, that hasn’t gotten their shot yet. Over a draft pick.

Now, both would really be ideal, import a ready to play backup and a drafted guy to school.

The announcers kept saying the saints were dating Bryce to beat them, he couldn’t
