Young's Toughness

We've seen several starting QBs go down this season.  Young took a beating yesterday but kept coming back for more.  Win or lose he gain a lot of my respect just for coming back.  I did not want to see Dalton come in.  

You can hate his skills but there is no way you can argue about his toughness. 

Absolutely.....

It's especially impressive given his small frame. No one expected his body to hold up coming into the NFL and even after getting hit at an above average rate, he's barely missed any time. To not only shrug it off once again, but elevate his game and lead us on two clutch drives to win the game, you have to give massive props.

People aren’t talking enough about it. He didn’t just play with a bad ankle. He literally carried the team yesterday to victory.  It’s one of the great all-time performances by a quarterback in the Panthers uniform.

He was battered but would not quit.  That's leadership.  I can guarantee that the players picked it up a notch with Young's toughness.

Not necessarily true. It was a big topic of discussion predraft and I remember there was data that suggested smaller QBs actually got injured less. It’s just the loudest voices talked with certainty non-stop that he would break every bone in his body the first time he took a real hit. Meanwhile, Anthony Richardson will bench himself for a hangnail.

Bryce's toughness has impressed. He's resilient for sure. Been one of his big strengths even when playing poorly. The combination yesterday was fantastic.

    • well i could go on & on but i will just highlight it by saying big difference trust me from the SEC & NFL.it's honestly like comparing apples & oranges especially when you are talking about a  LT. in the NFL you are going up against the most athletic freaks of nature the world has to offer . .the NFL also has much more exotic & complicated defensive schemes than what they are used to seeing at Georgis &  finally but most importantly you have to learn how to master complex bio mechanics where the body kick steps instantly as a reaction to these world class athletes rush without really making a conscious effort it's more of a learned muscle memory  & it can take thousands upon thousands of reps to master rproper technique for a LT in the NFL especially if you are still very raw like Monroe Freeling is    ...just saying 
    • All that being the case or maybe being the case, we do not know Wharton’s timetable n the first place. They are being coy about it. Or maybe not. They say week to week the board says he is terminal lol and must be replaced. Who knows? It may or may not warrant a fairly drastic solution.  Walker is a bargain and we are not well stocked at OL despite recent investments. Freeling has yet to have a single padded practice. Too much speculation driving this plan IMO. 
    • I would really love to know who’s actually making these moves because it’s weirdly vague who’s doing the hiring and firing.
