Anybody else think we are putting to much on Bryce's plate?

Load up his plate. I think he can handle it, but if it takes awhile to click, so be it. It’s not the end of the world if we don’t make the playoffs this season. However, this will build the foundation for long term success.

I love Bryce, I think he's the future, but let's not act like he has a wonderful offensive room to work with... then I remember Tepper saying well he's so good we won't have to spend money on recover we can put it into defense..(before he's even taken a snap) I'm not too sure.. I'm worried it might stunt his development he needs a guy he can grow with that's going to make those special plays and those hard plays look easy, I just think we should invest in a true star WR1 or TE

We don't know what's been put on him yet. It's fuging July people.

Bryce's assimilation of the playback is happening at his pace, the coaches are only doing their job. 

Seems to me this team is being built to contend year in and year out. 

Music to every Pather fan's ears.

For clarification.. when I say too much on his plate I don't mean mentally, playbook , playing him etc I mean who we are SURROUNDING him with! We saw Cam literally give out from CARRYING this team! We need other legit playmakers not rookies or past their prime vets or injury prone guys who have never played a full NFL Season

That's not what Tepper said. He hinted at being able to focus on defense in the second round.

Then they went and took a WR with the second pick. Mingo....and stated it was for Bryce to have a WR to grow with.

He's surrounded by veteren talent and quality coaches. He will be here a long time. This isn't the end of the talent aquiring for his career.

That's false lol he was talking about team building in the future compared him to Mahomes and how they didn't have great WRs but a special QB lol that ain't happening here ima tell you that right now

Well, the thing you have to remember is Tepper is an idiot.

Feels like Trevor Lawrence, Joe Burrow, and Josh Allen had the same plate size. So no.

2, 5 and 3 were the win totals for those guys in their rookie year.   The nfl transition is hard as fug

I don't think any of us have any clue what we're going to put on Bryce's plate just yet and we won't until we get into the season. Talk is talk. We'll have to see what we do. I do think we went out and signed a legit vet FA RB to take some of the pressure off of Bryce and be able to establish the run to setup the pass when need be.

The coaches know what to do.

I have learned a long time ago, to train someone … you push until they hit a wall, then back off a little, let them gather themselves and when ready you start pushing again. Sounds like Bryce’s first wall was way past what the coaches expected it to be.

so we are setup good, but don’t expect a SUPER BOWL or NFL MVP the first year. But do hope for rookie of the year.

While I think Young will be great... I do believe the expectations are being set too high for year 1. He is going to make mistakes as he get up to NFL speed but over time, he will calm down.

Expectations are supposed to be high when you're the #1 overall pick.

 

Bryce has had high expectations since highschool. I think playoffs are a realistic goal with him at QB. Some may disagree, but I believe he has the talent and the roster around him to accomplish this goal.

Which rookie QB has taken his team to the playoffs that was drafting top 10 in the past decade? That's very unrealistic

Cam had his best year with arguably his worse WR group. A goal of the coach is for the team to play better than expected with the overall product being better than the mere sum of the parts. So Thielen might not be a legitimate number 1 but on third down he is money and moves the chains. He has his role like Proehl did in 2003.  That same year we had a 3rd year guy who had shown flashes mainly on special teams and gadget plays but not really stood out as a receiver make a huge push and was a main reason we went to the postseason that year. Maybe Marshall is that guy for us. But the big X factor is coaching which has been estimated to account for almost 30% of a teams' success.  I don't see us getting outcoached very often this season.
