If anyone watches that video and comes away thinking "Bryce Young played like poo and he is not good," then you should seriously consider watching it a second time -- only this time open your eyes when you watch it

buddy I can copy and send you some links of posters on here talking about the QB missing tons of open WRs if you like

I think they need to cap the damn time they spend in their caves watching film. Too much overthinking leads to no thinking at all.

It was -- but the personnel was still asswater. Corral, for as much as I liked him, couldn't make a play.

why does every fuging Panthers coach find a play that works early in a game, and never run it again?

Betsy is an offensive lineperson (preferred pronoun)

lol seems like you don't know how it was intended then

I have no Heisman Trophy and I have never worked for DoorDash in Tuscaloosa, but I would NOT throw deep to anyone on that fuging lineup today save for Jonathan Mingo. And even then it'd give me pause. Safeties were salivating at the deep ball with 7 in coverage. We're gonna be angry at the OL next Monday when the sack total rises after NO blitzes more.

I liked this play by Young. None of the WRs get separation, and Atlanta's trying to bait Young into throwing the drag to TMJ, so here it looks like he's gonna do it -- instead he looks off and at the last minute, throws to Sanders for 8 yards and a first down

If you're gonna be a finesse, gadget-play offense, you need to use your gadget players and not bunch everyone up together running similar routes. Hell, some of these pass plays looked like they'd never been run in practice.

I counted three (3) "missed" throws, one that could've gone for a TD, one that would've fallen short of the sticks on 3rd down, and one that would've gone for a 1st down. Young started the game 12-18 (67%) for 91 yards, TD, INT, but finished it 8-20 (45%) for 55 yards and an INT. Some other things I noticed: - quick screen to Shenault worked great. Was never run again - Bryce's biggest mistake on his first pick was not taking the 8-yard completion to Mingo - Needs to look Mingo's way more, the 3rd-and-8 pickup was a great play by QB and WR

Unlike Tepper, who cuts bait too soon on some things and holds on too long with others, if Reich's proving he's not the answer (tbh my biggest concern is he got the QB he wanted and set up a scheme and roster that sets that QB up to fail), cut bait early.

Did we? I recall FOX Sports NFL giving him the mid-season MVP award before he went down against NO in 2009. He only missed 2 games in his first 4 1/2 seasons. If it weren't for Huddle Hype, I'd forget Horn was even on the team most of the time (because he isn't).

I think that if you really didn't want Bryce Young, you probably are very happy with how things went today -- at least in the sense that your confirmation bias can be displayed. But if you think this team's wideouts were open all game, you simply didn't watch the game and you checked the box score, said "I KNEW IT" and logged onto the Huddle.

Same. Even if he were missing open WRs, I'd look for some of that to be cleaned up within a few weeks. Just as defenses can key on his weaknesses, he can seek out and key on theirs. And sometimes, he'll even have a WR get separation.

CJ Henderson's salary is actually negative, he has to pay to play

It will cost him his job when coupled with the grocery baggers he's given Young to throw to.

I don't really care what other teams are. I care that this team gets better.

If only those assistant coaches could get open.

He is what this team lacks: an affordable power back.

if that's the case no WR other than Mingo should make above $0 this season

You'd take Miles Sanders and Adam Thielen over D'Onta Foreman and DJ Moore?

I'm not sure there's gonna be a Year 3, and that's even as Bryce improves

Any coach is gonna be hard-pressed to win 4 games with this roster, top-to-bottom. I've noticed the angriest people are the usual suspects plus the people who expected 9-10 wins this season. I'm not sure there's 9 wins to be had combined between 2023 and 2024, and that's even as Young improves.
