I mean I ain't trying to die on the Bryce Young hill, but this is a crazy statement. Who were Mac and Tua's receivers? Devonta Smith won a frigging Heisman! WRs don't mean everything but they matter. 

Does Jahmyr Gibbs ring a bell?

You mean the running back? Of course. 

Edit: And he wasn't there in 2021.

Gibbs was basically used as a wr in Bryce's final year. Gibbs was incredible.

I think the main issue with us with Bryce is that we can't control or attack the middle of the field with him. He doesn't have the zip or we don't have the players to attack or threaten the middle of the field.

So you seriously think Bryce was bad in college and his receivers made him look good? Oh wow.

I remember watching him at bama and thinking he throws a lot of wobbly non spiral balls that have very little velocity. Knew it would be a real problem in the NFL and it is.

Roger that. Bryce Young wasn't that good at Bama. He actually passed for all of those yards and TDs, and won a Heisman because of Metchie, Williams, and then Gibbs his junior year - even though he's a running back. 

Beating out CJ Stroud for the Heisman with Njigba, Olave, Marvin Harrison, Egbuka, Garrett Wilson, and Treveyon Henderson.

Come on. I am not defending today's Bryce Young. He's playing bad football now, but that doesn't mean he wasn't balling at Bama.

So were Vince Young Matt Leinart and Tim Tébow.

I thought that was the point of the conversation.  Was Bryce just not good in college and was always a bad QB but was somehow carried to glory on the wings of elite surrounding talent and great coaching?

Wouldn’t be the first time a QB has passed for a ton of yard and then sucked in the NFL. Happens all the time. Bryce never had to throw difficult balls at Bama. Everything was wide open and easy for him for the most part. If a play was contested it was college open not NFL open. 
Bryce may have been a good college QB but he is one of the worst NFL QBs I have ever seen play for the Panthers. 
Bryce has a ton of help in college where his size and arm strength was not a big issue.

I think too many people see his numbers in college and think he is an amazing QB overall. He had the same issues he has now in college but it is college they were not as much an issue. 
Once he got to the NFL his issues were compounded. Mediocre arm, small size and bad footwork.

Doesn’t mean they are gonna be good in the NFL. Plenty of good college QB suck once they make it to the NFL level. Unfortunately we drafted one of them.
