Nothing Defines the Bryce Young Era Better Than that 4th Down Play

Also a microcosm of this game itself

Bryce plays his best game of his career, but at the same time also had a good 6-8 plays (if not more) today where he just made terrible decisions and/or throws that in the end, likely cost us the win.

So even when he plays well, his issues still cause problems

Yeah, I was just thinking afterwards, he had some really good plays today.  But it’s the bad ones…  a true franchise QB would’ve had 4 TDs before that last one to Tet.  The plays have been there…  like you said, the number of times he just balls up and eats a sack or is completely oblivious on 4th down plays, or free plays from penalties is unreal.  The number of 4th down plays he’s just threw the ball away or ate a sack, I’ve never seen so many mistakes by a single player in my life.  So even in the games where he makes a few great plays, the bad ones still end up outweighing it.  If he converts that 4th down instead of falling and laying there, this is a very different looking game.  We could’ve milked the clock and been methodical.  Instead we’re forced to do the spectacular.

Yes, the mistakes are bad, but for me, they're still the secondary problem, the big one is the numerous incomplete passes because he's unable to drive the ball when he isn't able to have perfect balance and step into the throw.  

Because even if you fix his mental mistakes, he still will never have a strong enough arm for this league.  You can't win with a QB who can't drive a throw from the hash mark to the opposite sideline and only 15 yards downfield.

2.5+ years of limpdick quarterbacking.  Let’s revisit your post hoc gloating next time he has another Saints performance.  Where were you last week?

lol where’ve I been? This place sucks. Haven’t frequented here in years. Just wanted to see what the haters are up to and of course I see your limpdick post. No need to revisit. I got better poo to do than be full of hate like this wasteland of a community. ✌️

    • Like many of the old heads, I’ve been here for a long time.  I got a lot of respect for everyone on this board for your dedication to this team.  We’ve all been through it during the tougher years. At this point in life, I’m not one to judge anyone’s level of dedication, or their reasons why anymore.  Time, and a lot of bad football, will do that.  For me, it’s simple.  We share a common bond.  For that, I love and appreciate all of you crazy SOB’s. For me, last season was at a minimum, entertaining.  BY lead a young team to multiple come from behind 4th qtr wins.  That showed me heart, and that he has the clutch gene.  That’s the wildcard intangible.  For me, that was fun to watch even  if it was mindbogglingly frustrating at times.  Over the past two seasons, we have progressively built a better team around him.  On paper, the defense should be better this season.  That’ll help.  Let’s see what he can do as the other guys continue to develop too.  Besides, his contract is cheap for a few more years, and we just made some smart cap decisions during the draft. Let’s see how it shakes out. 
    • Hiring Shula & his Cam save us playbook.
    • I would very much liked to have seen Jake Delhomme's career if Tommy Jone no hurt Jake.  I just know that roster and the leadership were destined to hit paydirt but Jake was never the same after the elbow injury, and unfortunately he was the sole reason they didn't make it back to the big one.  I think that 08 team was the best in the league, and Jake masked his inability well all season til the Arizona game put it all on display.  I'll go back to the season prior even and say the 07 team was primed to be a competitor.  Jake was off to a fantastic start that year (for a Panthers QB).  They may have been a championship caliber club for a few seasons after 08 too.
