Franchise QB Dominates

I don't know how you can watch games and not see him as an issue. His physical limitations impact every aspect of our offensive gameplan.

I don't think he was "the issue" or "the / a reason" we lost. But he's clearly limited, and was just massively outplayed by a rookie (I mean given people last week claimed he outplayed Stafford I feel this is fair game, lol).

I could watch this game and not see him as an issue.

(in fact, I did)

Other games? Maybe. This game? No.

Despite the common mindset on here, not every loss or every issue the team has is traceable to Bryce.

To be fair I bet Bryce puts up 300 on this poo defense. 

I'm not really sure, tbqh. Our weakness as a D is often the middle of the field, and Bryce has huge trouble throwing to the middle of the field.

8:7 TD/INT ratio and a losing record. Y'all have low standards. Any QB in the league could hit targets that were that open.

2-0 vs Carolina. The only record that matters right now.

I don't know, man. This game is the same as every other game of us - he moves well in the pocket and escapes well, but he can't find the middle of the field and his ball placement often leaves something to be desired. he did have some great scrambles and a great throw to Coker, but every QB in the NFL can do those things.

Bryce was ok today especially considering our pass protection was pretty bad today. He was under duress almost immediately every passing down. 
On the other hand Shough or however the hell you spell it, had all day to throw against a soft zone. 
Not shitting on the guy, but our lack of pass rush and out fourth quarter prevent D did wonders for his stat line

Right, the bad throws.

Did you actually watch the game or do you just read statlines after?

I watched enough to see right before the Coker TD (great throw)….he had 2 horrific throws on that drive.   I guess you were in the bathroom for those.  We just were fortunate we didn’t pay for them. 

one was a blind duck XL somehow found and the other should of been a pick 6.

When your QB is a non-fuging-factor besides underthrowing balls to your unit of a rookie receiver causing drops, or taking a sack with the game on the line, or climbing the pocket and never looking back up to pass it on your final drive in a tied ball game, finishes with barely over 150 yards passing again, and gets outplayed by a geriatric rookie 2nd round pick twice while being swept by a division rival… maybe that’s why.  He sucks.  He requires everything around him to be optimal to produce, while real franchise QBs make the players around them better.  We have to play like a fuging Knute Rockne offense to make him look like a fuging QB.  Everybody was drinking the koolaid after the rams game, but we had to go for it on 4th down how many times to generate the majority of his numbers.  It was inexplicable and a complete anomaly because it shouldn’t have happened…  he got that production on 4th down because the Rams, as the rest of the NFL would, expected Bryce to be inaccurate or incapable of making the throws they gave him on those plays - because 99% of the time, he doesn’t make them.

Where is this vitriol for Horn getting smoked or the defense blowing it? I get you’re hyper-obsessed with Bryce Young to a wholly unhealthy degree (and may in fact assassinate him before week 18 if given the opportunity), but today was one of those where the blame CAN be spread. He’s not good but neither is the defense or most anyone on the roster. The coaches also suck.

That’s on Canales. In that situation there is absolutely no statistic that says not to go for three.

That baffled me why were we so set on going for it, when a field goal puts us up 2 scores? 

[OneBadCat]

No way you can pin this on Bryce. He looked good. Refs kept him off the field.

Considering hardly ANY QB gets shut down by this defense I’d bet on any QB to shell it, including Jack Plummer.

You back to posting sh-tty arguments just for the hell of it or are you serious here?

If you genuinely believe Bryce's skill set doesn't fit Canales approach, you may be in need of retaking Football 101, or at least the section of the course dealing with WCO concepts.

I'm waiting for either you or Proudiddy to start a thread explaining how Ejiro Evero's issues are really Bryce's fault too.

(was that a light bulb that just came on over your head?)

So a QB who struggles to post 175 yards on most Sundays is NOT a major problem holding our team back?  That’s a normal, acceptable average for a franchise QB in the year of our lord 2025?

Got it.

He's actually admitted in the past that he sometimes intentionally posts stupid takes just for the hell of it.

Is this one of them? Don't know  Sometimes it's tough to tell if his arguments are intentionally dumb or honestly dumb.

He led the team in rushing yards today, he was genuinely our entire offense man. But yeah, he's why we lost.

Bryce played his part well today but what most people are tired of is seeing this team doing everything they can to cater to Bryce and yet only get this type of production. 161 passing yards just isn't an acceptable number to consistently win games in the NFL.

It is, he admitted a few posts up he didn't watch the game.
