He plays like he’s 5’11. Brees played like he was 6’2. Low arcing throws and he’s a loose gunslinger about things. He’s got the ability but is simply a bit of a sloppy type of QB. Less margin for error when you have the physical traits working against you.

Still, on a per-pass level, Mayfield's 2.46 percent passes batted down mark is the second-highest rate in the league among the 30 quarterbacks that have attempted at least 1,000 passes since 2018. The only quarterback with a higher percentage over that span is 6'5" Cam Newton at 2.56 percent.

ESPN

Cam wasn’t ever more than an average throwing QB and his mvp season was a fluke because of other top qbs being injured and cam getting constant great field position because of the defense.

Ok I've said this a million times.

 

It's the Olines job to get their hands down.

When the defender jumps you punch towards his balls. They will instinctively bring their hands down in a flinch.

Or they jump and you cut them (unless this is now illegal but it shouldn't be in the free blocking zone) that brings their hands down as well.

 

 

Exactly this, on the replays of the batted balls the offensive lineman is not even touching the dlineman and allowing them to jump freely.  I have no idea how this hasnt been corrected yet.  If the dlineman doesn't get quick pressure they are instantly preparing to bat the ball down and until the olineman start making them pay for it,  it will continue.   The team seemed to have a mean streak in the preseason and in the regular season it seems like the coaching staff has told them to lose all that energy and they are flat.

      Serious Thoughts Fellas What numbers would Bryce..

      By Icege · Posted

      Agreed. A healthy bit from column A (stats) and column B (film) paints the most accurate picture, which is currently that Bryce is not performing up to the standard a 1st round QB (let alone drafted #1 overall) is expected to (statistically). When we dig into the film to see why, we see that while he's having his struggles (not stepping up in the pocket, bailing out early, hesitating on some throws, making occasional bad reads, etc) the team that surrounded him last season was simply awful. Bottom 5 defense, bottom 5 OL, bottom 5 weapons... but somehow one player has to overcome ALL of that in their rookie season? Yeesh... Taking this season into consideration, he started where he left off last season and was rightfully benched. Since starting again, the team has gotten on its first winning streak in a few years and he's made good plays to keep them in the game. Is he lighting it up? Nah... but he is beginning to show the reason so many draftniks had him as QB1a for his class. Re: what the team does next season... who friggin knows anymore at this point T_T. Resign Dalton? Sign Jones? Draft somebody in the mid-to-late rounds? Go with another UFA? Maybe grab an FA that can compete with Bryce for the starting position and draft a rookie to sit and develop? Might be best of both worlds for the team, but ugh... not a fun position to still be in with question marks throughout the position group.

      Yeah, this is basically the same as asking, "What if Bryce Young suddenly had Patrick Mahomes brain, how would he do?" It isn't happening. This ship is beyond sailed. Send him somewhere else, let us move on and him move on.

      Dalton is too close to starting right now. If it hadn't been for a car accident, he still would be. Switching Dalton for Jones does nothing except reduce the backup's age by a decade. One is in his NFL prime, the other is almost in his NFL grave. Not a horrible move if you're trying to improve the team. We've got to get better as a team and a lateral move like that would improve the team. The problem isn't that he's close to starting. The problem is we have a GM that signed off on BY and didn't bring in any serious QB competition for camp, a HC that said yeah, he's my guy until BY poo the bed so bad he couldn't start him, and an offense that's limited because BY can't make all the throws a normal NFL QB can.  The problem isn't that Jones could be an improvement as a backup QB. The problem is he could be better than our "franchise" QB.
