I know #BryceYoung has come a long way from his rookie year but until he cleans up his feet in the pocket & learns to set strong & ready at top of drop, it will be really hard to take that next step! It causes him to be late & miss a lot of throws & with his limited arm strength, playing late is not a winning proposition a lot of the time!

He's just not a starting NFL QB......Solid backup? Maybe

Until people accept that then this team goes nowhere.  

Kyle Shanahan and Lynch leveraged HEAVY to get Trey Lance, realized he sucked and not a starting caliber QB, cut ties, built a team.  Consistently being a competitor and thats what its suppose to look like.  Stop trying to fit a square peg into a round whole, not going to work. Cut your losses and move on.......

What's crazy is that there are still people saying  "he's making progress"" This is year 3 and his footwork is still bad!

Technically…. He is making progress. Just imagine where we will be in another three years.  

[Khaki Lackey]

The only progress he’s made is that he’s not quite the turnover machine he used to be. He doesn’t look radically different than his rookie year.

The comments…

 

it’s pretty much year 4 and we are still on this.

Kurt Warner gets it.  I guess Kurt hasn't been seeing the cherry picked stats here on the Huddle where Bryce is apparently an elite QB. 

Again, his horrible mechanics CAN'T be fixed.  Why? Bryce is undersized and the bad mechanics results from him trying to compensate for the lack of height and arm strength.  So unless the puts on 20+ pounds and grows about 4 inches, the idea that he's going to fix his mechanics is unrealistic  Even if he could wave a magic wand and make that so, QBs at this stage in their careers rarely are successful in changing the throwing motion they have been using since youth league football.

His 3rd year is complete. Unless they trade him or cut him and he has a bit of time to sit behind a better QB and work on those things it's never going to happen. It's not an offseason timeframe thing.

It's who he is and who he has always been. Just get a better QB, with his level of play it's not a very difficult task.

never seen a QB so bad, be defended so much by a fanbase. 
they are going to pick up his 5th year for no reason whatsoever and we are going to suck again next year.

TO's/GM

2025: 0.94

2024: 0.92

2023: 1.00

One of the most consistent aspects of his career is that he is roughly a 1 TO/GM QB. His Int% has gone up from 1.9% to 2.3% over his career.

His actual only real points of improvement are Completion Percentage(career high) and Passing YPG(career high).

His now new career high is 188.2/GM.

Still can’t get over his 15passes for 54yards in game against Seattle.

Man. It seems like he’s throwing less awful picks lately. I guess not. lol

[kungfoodude]

Bryce Young is never going to fix his mechanics. He does not have a strong enough arm to be an "arm thrower" so when his base is not set, he struggles mightily to make NFL throws.

The biggest problem with this is that he isn't a pocket QB. It's partially because he can't get clean throwing lanes, he can't see over lineman and he also lacks the confidence in the pocket necessary to do so.

So, he is a scrambling, arm throwing QB that doesn't have the arm required to make NFL throws. 

There is no potential path to success like this. None.

He has 4 games this season of 200 or more yards passing.

He has 6 games this season of 150 or less yards passing. I can check but I bet that may possibly lead the league.
