Bryce Young's average stats over a whole season would be...

Current Bryce Young stats:

  • Attempts: 269
  • Completions: 166
  • Yards: 1,514
  • Touchdowns: 11
  • Interceptions: 7

Over a full 17-game season, this comes out to:

  • Attempts: 468
  • Completions: 313
  • Yards: 2,859 (168 yards per game)
  • Touchdowns: 21
  • Interceptions: 13

In terms of yardage, this would rank as the 19th-best total in team history, only slightly ahead of 2006 Jake Delhomme (2,805), who missed 3 games. It would even rank behind 2023 Bryce Young, who threw for 2,877 yards in only 16 games.

The only quarterbacks who started a majority of a season in team history with worse passing numbers are:

  • Kerry Collins (163 yards per game - 201 if you exclude a game he missed most of due to injury)
  • Jimmy Clausen (145 yards per game over 10 starts)

This is statistically on pace to be Bryce's worst season ever. It's year 3. We have two good running backs, weapons at skill positions, and an offensive line that works. Zero sign of progress from a statistical perspective other than Bryce having a lot of game-winning drives. But guess who also had that? The Golden Calf of Bristol, and once the Broncos cut him they won a Super Bowl within a few years.

Where would this rank if spread out to only a 16 game season?

Because remember, this is only the 5th season of having 17 games, so even with an extra game over 26 of our seasons in franchise history and it still only would rank 19th best (and again, that's ignoring how some players didn't play 16 games in those other seasons like you said)

The game winning drive thing -- If nearly all of his wins have to be game winning because we can never win by more than a score, that's not clutch.  That's just playing the odds.  

He's 8-9 in one score games, those 8's final drives were classified as GW.  But when you compare to the games when he had the same amount opportunity presented, it's a sub-500 metric.

    • LOL! We have ourselves a funny one over here.  
    • That’s why I love Jake and always will.  He was so fuging gritty and definitely was a gunslinger.  Like a not-quite-poor-man’s Brett Favre.  Like an economy version lol.  He was damn good.  Yeah, he’d throw a pick here or there, but more often than not, I trusted Jake.  He’d make some throws that really made you think, “damn, he’s even better than I thought.”  I loved that he loved to gamble, but more importantly, he gave his guys a fuging chance to make a play.  When people have been criticizing Tet for drops, it pisses me off, because they say it like these are some gimmes that he’s dropping.  but, at about 6’5”, if your whole body is moving one way and you have to stop or slow down to come back to a ball thrown behind you, or low, that poo is not easy.  Bryce isn’t really giving him a chance, and I can see why he’s dropping them.  Versus if you look at this highlight reel of Moose: at about halfway through is when Jake stepped in.  The passes he was throwing are CRAZY.  There’s multiple passes in there where he is throwing across his body while running the opposite way - and he still had the strength to get it on target.  Then there’s the throws where he lasers it in a spot only the receiver could get it - seam routes, out routes, over the top. The longer you watch, the more obvious it is that so many of these (what should be basic) throws are completely absent from our offense with Bryce.  There was a play today where he started to scramble, kept looking, looking, looking, then just threw it into the ground near the receiver.  Let them make a fuging play.  His best pass of the day?  The long one to Tet?  If you re-watch it. About 10-15 yards further downfield, XL smoked his man on a post route.  You get maybe 3 chances at that a game usually, and when you don’t even attempt it when it’s there?  That poo is so demoralizing.  I can’t wait for Bryce’s time here to be fuging over.  If they cut him tomorrow I would feel free.  I would feel like I just won the fuging powerball.  If they signed Heineke, Perkins, White, PJ Walker, or Hooker to start the rest of the year, I would be fuging ecstatic like we just trotted Cam out for the first time.  That how fuging life-sucking Bryce is as the QB.
    • Aren't they about the same size too? Why TF are teams all of sudden drafting these small ass QBs that have an EXTREMELY low hit rate at an already extremely low hit rate position?
