Th 6’2 prototypical QB is a myth, look at the shotgun percentages

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.

    • NFL Pro has the All-22 up already 😄 Going to grab a play or two from each redzone series to put screenshots to. Looks like AT angled his route off to the near pylon rather than the back corner where Bryce was throwing to. I imagine this is something they'll quickly try to figure out with Thielen back from IR. After watching the All-22 again, this was actually a pretty nifty play. I thought it was a TE screen to Tremble because of the way XL charged the DB, but he quickly shed and kept upfield as seen in the second screenshot. This looks like it had multiple layers built into it with AT running the crosser, XL the fade, Tremble to the flat. The progression would call for the play to go to Chuba here as the LB does follow Tremble out into the flat. Ball hits Chuba low and in the hands, but the LB does a good job disrupting the catch.
    • The bottom lines to me are that a) we played well enough to beat the best team in the league and b) Bryce Young is growing into a bridge QB role (his ceiling) for us. As much as I don't want BY around after the season, it seems DC can still build the O with a game manager at QB for now. Best case scanario, we can build the D through the draft this year and take a QB we have conviction outside the 1st this or next draft. If BY keeps improving, we are going to win a couple more games this year.
    • Bryce has been a completely different QB since coming back. That started in Denver where it was obviously he was playing a lot more loose and willing to push the ball downfield  Bryce continues to build off of the previous weeks performance and that’s what you want to see Bryce has been making some real good anticipation throws. Reading defenses well. Pushing the ball downfield (7 throws of 20+ air yards yesterday. 8 if you want to include PI to Thielen). The deep ball accuracy has been there. Some of Young’s best throws yesterday were incompletions. Sideline balls to XL and Moore both should’ve been caught. RZ dot to Tremble should’ve been caught. And another RZ ball to Moore that Young gave him a chance at. Bryce is starting to execute Canales offense and yesterday Canales finally opened it up a bit. Canales was to blame for the 126 passing yards in Germany as he played a more conservative game.  The next bit I’m looking for his for Young to be a bit more decisive with running the ball. Start putting that on film and it’ll help open things up a tad
