I said at the start that he was worth resigning, for the life of his contract his salary is largely going to be middle of the road on edge pay.

They run the ball a lot, 30 times a game on average and Allen is averaging 240 yards a game. They are leaning heavily on the run game and play action passing. Their defense is really weak against the run and strong against the pass. Run the ball effectively and make it a low possession game with a low score to have a chance to win late.

And now Brady calls plays for Buffalo. He became the Buffalo QB coach in 22 Buffalo with Josh Allen runs the ball 30 times a game and works off play action and roll outs.

I didn't want expect us to start this strong. Miller and Nikishin new on defense Walker, Ghosty playing different lines and Ghosty playing on his off side. New players plus rods propensity to play line blender and I thought it would be a rough start.

Then he made a horrible turnover.

Miller just saved a goal, so guess he's even for the game. Lol

Freddie just robbed that shot.

Blake just doesn't fit with the first unit, they have no one to get on the board and retrieve the puck. Got to be one of the dumbest pp moves this team has ever made and that's saying something. Lol

Well that's fun. Lol

Aho!!!!!!

Missed the start. Has it been that bad?

Team hasn't ruled him out, he's listed as day to day.

The PP has looked horrible since Svechnikov was pulled and out on line two and then it took an even bigger hit losing Ghost. Svechnikov is the best player on the team on puck retrieval and keeping a line going. That first line needs some grit and it doesn't have any to me.

Maybe I can reverse jinx Svechnikov and get him going. So I'm gonna go with Jackson Blake.

There's 6 QBs in the NFL averaging 250+ yards a game this season. One is a backup. The NFL is swinging back to a run first league where QB's get yards off play action passing

His biggest strength at QB is deep throws outside the numbers to the boundary. Deep in NFL terms is over 20 yards. It's why I joked earlier in the season that all you had to do was run a zone focused on the flat and deep boundary and you take away most of his throws. I posted this earlier in the thread. "Carolina is no longer forcing him into a box as a quick-game distributor, which could be the weakest part of Young’s game and the one most affected by his height; instead, Canales is setting him up for more downfield throws aimed outside the numbers. Young has the touch, timing, and accuracy to pull those throws off." Those deep boundary throws is what he's excelled at since becoming the starter again.

65-35 split and play to their strengths. Not alternate drives since that outs your offense in a weird position.

Add on to this. That means I thought Bryce needed the same amount of time on the sidelines before starting because his mechanics needed fixing before being thrown on the field. Additionally if starting him, you need to be able to scheme him a throwing lane up the middle so the whole field is open to him when he drops back. The Panthers didn't fix his mechanics, they didn't have an offense set up to scheme him throws over the middle consistently and didn't draw off his biggest strength as a thrower which is numbers out to the boundary. None of the above even started happening til Canales got here and Bryce was benched. Throwing him on the field as a rookie in an offense that didn't fit his traits and skills set literally ruined what chance he had at being an NFL starting QB.

That's how the draft works, dunno what to tell you. QB has the lowest hit rate I'll use Bryce as an example. The scouting department that drafted him (one that is still largely the same now) thought he would excel in a quick strike offense when his size and ability to read a defense literally makes that the worst aspect of his game.

If you've paid attention I've said already multiple times that he isn't a starting NFL QB. I said this before the draft, I had him rated third at QB. I had him rated behind AR, who I said would need a year or two on the bench before starting.

I'm literally telling you that is in fact how it works. You don't compare players to starters when only like 10% of drafted players develop into long term starters. You compare them to every rostered player at their position. Their skills, traits, athleticism is based off of that. Do they have above average athleticism for their position, well their position includes backups and starters.

Even with all of this, he's not a long term starting QB. Which I said prior to the draft. You've got to scheme his throws over the middle open by creating lanes for him to see the field. So his best throws are to the boundary outside the numbers. That's where he excels largely. For his size to throw over the middle, he's got to trust the play and the receiver to be where they are supposed to be. That leaves a large part of the field he's not going to see or naturally want to throw the ball to without the line breaking down or being schemed to have an open lane to see the middle of the field.

Air yards. It's from where he throws the ball at, which is the 50 yard line and Thielen catches it at the goal line. But yes that's one of them.

That literally what a draft profile is, it compares a player to the players at his position, not just starters. So no it's not crazy because that's how it freaking works. Lol

I told you where to look, there's a long highlight video that's easy to find where there's a 50 yard air throw to Thielen and multiple 20+ yard air throws. I just shared a small clip that featured under pressure throws.
