See, this is proof that ppl don't actually read my posts. They make their assumptions and move on.

 

I have said from the start. Whichever QB we take I will get behind. I am not that petty. But...until his name is called. He's not technically a Panther. Thus, open to fair game.

 

I know Young can be exciting. And if the Powers That Be want him. Then let's go to war.

Young can be exciting? 

Seems like the one not paying attention is you.

feel free to ignore my posts as I was responding to bigkatt in regards to his post about the shotgun.  But you be you

Feel free to ignore the huddle and go commiserate on Twitter or something. Young’s size has been talked about since before we even traded up. There have been countless counterpoints made to the injury arguments. You don’t have to accept them, you are clearly set in your view no matter what anybody says or thinks, but wtf is there to gain by bringing it up over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over. The debate is over, you’re not convinced and you’re not convincing anybody, just let it go.

We’ll see tonight if our all-star QB expert coaches and front office thinks like you or not, but all signs point to them disagreeing with you completely.  People here are trying to be positive and excited about Young because it seems very clear he is the pick. We get it, you’re smarter than our coaches, just don’t be surprised when people get fed up with your incessant nagging pessimism.

Now, to be fair. You have kinda done the same thing numerous times. 

iamhubby1 you can't even be consistent yourself you were the biggest happy go lucky homer here a year ago now you're ridiculed by just about everyone because the best you've got going are corny short jokes like you're someone's cringy drunk uncle.

So...You have complete confidence Bryce can handle getting sacked 63 times, with who knows how many times he gets knocked down?

I don't know, ask the guy I quoted who was invoking Russell Wilson's injury history (or lack thereof) as a cautionary tale for Young.

What I do know though, is that it sounds awfully cowardly to forego a better prospect (which is majority widespread belief, whether or not you would like to admit it) at the most important position in the NFL because he might get injured at some point.  Having the 1st overall pick and settling for a lesser prospect is something I'm surprised people are advocating for, given how outspoken everyone is in here about a franchise "mired in mediocrity".

There are two types of people in the world: Chad Riverboat Rons, and Virgin Calculated Risk Taker Rons.  I'm proud to be Team Riverboat...you feel free to stay comfortable and complacent in the latter category.

and yet nearly every post you make in bryce young threads you make some comment about him being too damn little.

sorry for victimizing you.

Considering Bryce was literally sacked 63 times in college, I think it's safe for anyone to underline in stone that, yes, he can in fact handle getting sacked as many times as he has been sacked.  Fantastic argument, that.

Matt Corral is 6'1 215 pounds and he looked small in preseason. It was like he was being swallowed up by the pocket, and I kept thinking "he's going to get hurt." Then he got hurt trying to run for his life. Young is 5'10 190 pounds, and I can't even imagine how small he's going to look behind our enormous o-line. Our center is 6'5, and you know our tackles are basically the largest humans on Earth that can still play a sport. I can't help but wonder if the Panthers are actually taking Young, but all signs do point to him being the selection. 

Bro you act like someone a few inches shorter is such a big deal.

      Gameday Thread: KC-CAR

      By strato · Posted

      He made some excellent throws but he always has made some excellent throws here and there. I don't know what to think, which is what I was apprehensive about. Is he going to have a decent downfield game? Because okay Legette dropped one, but someone was giving stats prior to the bye or during it where he had two downfield completions and one of them was the jump ball that is just launched and fingers are crossed that our guy comes down with it, and yesterday we saw that again. The Russell Wilson school of downfield passing.  I don't feel like that is sustainable, but at the same time you have to do Something to make the defense understand they have to defend that downfield throws. Like i said, confused.  I guess I'm going to review the game for myself and look closely at his mechanics and stuff because if he actually fixed that stuff it explains the better throws. And that has been my biggest objection, or what I see as the thing that makes or breaks his chances, that unorthodox dropback and tippy toe action and not having his feet set which limits velocity etc etc.

      Crazy stat

      By Manna · Posted

      The negative Nancy in me (or objective?) says that they had a bye week to prepare for the Chiefs. However, it’s one thing to have a good plan and it’s another to actually execute it. For all the flack he’s received (from me as well), Bryce seemingly has put his head down and worked his tail off and his play is giving me hope. The first 18-game Bryce showed no progression whatsoever. He gets benched, comes back, and has shown steady progress every week he has started. I think I’m starting to see what the Bryce lovers and unconditional defenders were saying all along, and I hope he can show that on a regular basis for the sake of our QB1 position.

      Some Thoughts on Our Remaining Games

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      Yeah, we could still very well end up 4-13 with the 2nd pick.   I think LVR has the inside track for 1, with only a JAX team as a team on docket that could be beatable.
