Thanks Jacksonville.

You inflated Kaeps numbers and he is once again, over rated.

Cant stand him. Any QB would look alot better than they actually are on that team. Seems like every player is a pro bowler. Especially their offensive line. Gets under my skin like no other.

I know how you feel. 

 

Anytime he as to show patience in the pocket, he looks like a Wild Tatted Chicken, the way he shuffles his feet, gets fidgety, and obviously uncomfortable, then bolts!!

 

But they don't trust him anymore, and have shown they can win with him the same way they did with Alex Smith last year as essentially a game manager (with his wheels as a added dimension).

To the OP:

It would help (unless I'm missing it), to separate the passing TD's from total TD's, though I know you're being fair and including "total turnovers" as well.

I disagree.

With QBs like Cam, Wilson, Kaepernick, Griffin, and even Luck as the new "young guns" in this league (throw in Pryor and Smith and others as well if you wish), production from their legs is an integral part of their game. Next time I may provide rush yards or just add it with passing for total yards. Its a new day with these QBs.

If you wish to grade them on their arm alone, I'd be excited to see your own post providing that information.

I asked, cause I think Cam is a better pocket QB than all these guys, and it's still good to know the passing stats/separate them.

 

It's all good.

      The Carolina Huddle

      Been here a while but rarely post and most of them are smartazz. Mostly lurk just so I can sound informed while hanging out drinking beer in my neighbors garage. Amusingly a Huddle level of knowledge kind of makes you a subject matter expert. Thanks for that.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      That’s similar as saying MVP Cam is the same as rookie Cam because his mechanics didn’t change. We’re talking about production.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By frankw · Posted

      In 2025 Sam Darnold had over 1k more passing yards than Bryce Young on 1 less pass attempt. Repeat that to yourself several times and let it sink in. I absolutely love it when people come on here and invoke Sam Darnold like some gotcha. Darnold is the physical prototype for what anyone needs in a franchise QB. All the physical tools. Few people thought he would put it all together on the mental side of the position. He used to make some of the worst decisions you would ever see. At times in the past he made up for that with absurd throws and athleticism. But make no mistake whatsoever no matter how you feel about our starting QB. Bryce Young is a completely opposite conundrum. He lacks virtually any and all physical tools and athleticism and his elite processing is really mediocre at best on a good day and horrific on a bad day. These are realities people should have already been addressing instead of quadrupling down in year four.
