No no no, Denver's defense is just bad. Miami shouldn't get any credit for that performance. /sarcasm

Clearly Bryce will be good because Tua figured it out. So will Justin Fields and Zach Wilson. You know because "insert random successful" qb putting it together is obviously a predictive model.

So two games in is too soon to know anything about Bryce, but completely soon enough to know how good Seattle's defense is, got it. Seattle probably played their best defensive game of the year yesterday. That was a tough test in a very hostile environment, all signs indicate BY would have completely crumbled. I'm sure you'll queue up some emotional insult or imaginary conjecture to combat the obvious.

JT cherry picks his analysis to support previous conclusions until it’s no longer possible. His “analysis” ranges anywhere from less than 30 minutes to well over an hour. A true objective analysis would grade every play. JT is good at breaking down tape, he’s even better at making YT videos that people want to watch.

Anyone that thinks BY could have done what Andy did today is smoking some strong poo. I have hope for BY but the kid needs to sit and the rifle needs to hunt.

His sideline gun chewing game is def on par with Pete Carrol and that could have helped us TODAY! But with Seattle now behind us imma have to hard pass. No more gum chewing showdowns on the schedule.

Fitts is a Chicago double agent and is fantastic at that job.

It is burnt down and this is what burnt down looks like.

I feel sorry for anyone that didn’t believe black cats were bad luck before they got here.

Well CJ just moved ahead of Mahommes to 3rd most yards in first three starts, now only behind Cam and Herbert. Oh he just added another 70+TD and there’s still 10 mins left.

Then just make your point, two games is indicative of nothing. Stop propping a valid point up with a pointless comparison.

Oh and here's Jimmy Clausen's, which also has no bearing on Bryce's future.

This dumb poo again. Below is Ryan Leaf's first season. Does it have anything to do with how Bryce will turn out? NO and neither do these ridiculous comparisons to anyone else.

We now interrupt this program to introduce Bryce Young, you will be returned shortly to your regularly scheduled program...Journeymen's last Hoorah

Chuckle response: Whatever the record is between now and when he is fired. It’s a gauranteed outcome. Serious response: 4+ wins this season gets him 2024. Flirting with .500 gets him 2025. Anything less qnd he’s job hunting and we’re literally half cocked rebuilding again. It’s the Tepper blue print.

Welp facts are facts. Meanwhile this is NFL open. (@ 36 seconds if it doesn’t go there auto) https://youtu.be/UG4DKNasoPU?t=36 This is what you’re up against. Pat Mahommes throwing into tight window highlights are even more ridiculous. So stop complaining about our receivers not being open, champions throw them open. I’m not saying BY can’t get there, just illustrating the competition if he’s going to be a factor.

Yeah, a few guys here eager to jump on me in defense of "Keep Pounding". I am emotionally connected to it, and it does mean something to me as I'm sure it does many fans on this board. I never said it was a gimmick. The only point I'm making is NFL players are plucked from all over the country, the vast majority have never heard of Sam Mills until they get here. While his story may be inspiring, if you weren't here for it then it's not much different than any other inspiring survivor story. It's mostly a memory and a mantra for the fans that remember him at this point. It's been pointed out that Frank and Dom shared office space with Sam when he was an active player there's also Dan Morgan. I'll admit my oversight there as I'm sure those guys have fond memories of Sam. Doesn't change my mind one bit about the average player on our roster though.

You're saying things I didn't say at this point. I didn't say anything about the last two decades. Keep Pounding has definitely been part of the culture over that time span, without doubt. I said, and this is in my opinion, that it's lost on this current roster. There's no emotional connection to it for them.

I wouldn't say I didn't know. I've certainly followed the Panthers since day one. I suppose Frank and Dom being there at the beginning just didn't connect for me with Sam and his battle and "keep pounding" coming long after their departure. But fair play, they are def connected to Sam.

No, there's no way to be sure not a single person has no connection. I suppose restated I could say I'm sure it doesn't mean anything to most. Dan Morgan is still in the building but technically an executive. Who else still has direct ties?

There's not a single player or coach on the team with an emotional connection to Keep Pounding, it's no more meaningful than Jack Del Rios "Keep Chopping" is in Jacksonville anymore, or Rhule's DBO. It stuck because Sam Mills was a great man and an icon for this team and to not honor that tradition would piss a lot of people off. But the inspiration of it doesn't mean anything more to this crop of players than it means to any other athlete on any other team that didn't know or play with Sam. Other than that, I'd say any fan on this board still participating, bitching or otherwise after the last six years is indeed STILL POUNDING even if they're doing it wrong in your estimation.

There's no denying it's a dumpster fire, the only real debate is where to place how much blame.

We are Browns level dysfunctional for the last six years, they've had 3 playoff games (1 win) in 20 year. That's just the reality of where we're at right now. We've had the same issue they've had for much longer, no answer at QB. They've busted on two #1 overalls in Tim Couch and Baker Mayfield and have taken multiple others in 1st round, Brady Quinn (07' 22nd overall), Brandon Weeden (12' 22nd overall), Johnny Manziel (14' 22nd overall). Even with all that they've been less dysfunctional than us over the last six years with only 6 different starters, Mayfield largely stabilizing the franchise between 2018-2022. We've had 9 different starting quarterback in the last six seasons: Newton, Heinicke, Allen, Grier, Bridgewater, Walker, Darnold, Mayfield and Young. So I understand why we went all out for BY, there's belief in the building that he can stabilize the most important position in football for us. We shot our shot and now we have to see what comes of it. Like the Browns for the last two decades, and like any other organization in QB purgatory, we are going nowhere until we have competent play behind center.
