This. When did the NFL start letting guys just pass on the combine tests? If they forced Bryce to run the 40, bench press, vertical jump, etc there’s no way he goes #1. Seeing him get buried benching 135 and running a 5.1 forty would kill that idea.

Collinsworth: “At some point you have to decide, can I hit it or not?” Amen.

Brock Purdy was the last pick in the last round of the 2022 draft (7th round, #262 overall). Mr Irrelevent. Bryce was the first pick in the first round in 2023 (#1 overall). Purdy isn’t even regarded as a stud or even super talented…a game manager…but Bryce isn’t even in Brock’s universe. Regardless of talent on the rest of the team.

So he’s short, small, weak, super slow, has a weak arm, and not good at football. But he’s smart on paper kinda!

If I was David Tepper (the 99th richest human in the history of the world), I would… …move into my private island estate in the Caribbean and watch the Panthers games via satellite with my Playmate model girlfriends and private chefs. Just stay the F away from Mint St.

I’m looking at Bryce’s career stats vs Jamarcus Russell’s and I mean….

#1 overall Bryce backing up #1 overall Shedeur. Lol at this franchise.

Caleb Williams is FAR more talented than Bryce Young will ever be and anyone watching the games knows this.

Did you watch the 4th quarter? He won the game for them, if not for the Hail Mary.

“Lucky” he can buy major time with his legs and then launch it 60+ in the air. Bryce would need more than “luck” for that. Because he literally just can’t.

Jayden Daniels just won the game on a 65-yard Hail Mary. Caleb Williams got the Bears back in the game running around and slinging it. Jameis Winston beat the Ravens taking risks, throwing it deep. Jalen Hurts routinely scores TD’s running the tush-push. Bryce Young can’t line up behind center, nevermind run a qb sneak. Hail Mary? He can’t throw 50 yards and can’t escape the pocket. We have to move on. The QB’s coming out are increasingly freakish and ours ain’t even remotely close.

Bryce would’ve thrown it to Sanders 2 yards behind the LOS. Like literally.

They tried the Refrigerator Perry play and tried handing it to an O-Lineman lol. Epic fail.

Quit.

Right now we own #1 overall. Tennessee is the only 1-win team so root for them to win moving forward. But yeah, we’re good at the moment.

Watching Jayden Daniels, he’s like hundreds of times better than Bryce. Not even the same stratosphere. Caleb Williams is struggling but still far more skilled. CJ Stroud, same. Even Fields and Richardson at least have talent. Like how did we miss so horrifically bad?

Ian Rappaport with the hot take.

You’re right. Browns: Mayfield and Myles Garrett (back to back years) Jags: Trevor Lawrence and Travon Walker (back to back years) We are in some extraordinary company.

Has any team ever had #1 overall twice in three years? (We also earned #1 overall the other year but traded it away. lol.) #ShatteringRecords

Give me Prime and Shedeur and maybe Silo and Hunter too. Maybe it would be watchable, which right now it’s not. Or maybe Tepper will just fix it all.

You stole my idea LOL. But yeah, there is no hope. Take the long-shot and pray.

Frankie Luvu dominating once again. Blew up DJ Moore on a key play. Sucks so bad watching former players in big games.

Yes, Mugsy Bogues.

I mean I kinda agree. It’d either work…or crash and burn in epic fashion. Very Panthers-like.

Bryce QB rating 138.8, 5/5 and a TD. Can we call the game now? Mercy rule?
