You seem to have Young and Ridder confused. 

Ridder had some nice downfield throws.  Name one Bryce pass that made you say “now that’s why we drafted him first overall”

The entire touchdown drive

Bryce Young is not ready to be a starter in the NFL

His field vision is really bad, I thought that was supposed to be his ELITE trait?

Why is he the starter if the coaching staff doesn't allow him to stretch the field before desperation mode?

I honestly think him sitting and watching for the year could be good for him, let's be real this team isn't going anywhere this year.

The little 5 yard dump offs?  His longest throw of the game was 14 yards, and that one was completed 7 yards from the LOS.

Bones are there it's just going to take time. They didn't look incompetent, they just made mistakes and need some time to work some poo out together.

I'm not freaking out until next month

So, I used to make a yearly “lol @ you” post after every first loss of the season. Lots of people in here that have unrealistic expectations and freak out after the first loss. Nothing to see here or freak out about. I’d be far more interested in seeing how Young improves from week 1 to week 8 and then toward the end of the season.

we want to see progression, that’s the only thing you should be looking for right now. The first 3 games are for nothing more than setting the base line for expectations. So if you had any at all before today that’s on you. 
 

ps. People hate being told theyre overreacting cry babies but many on here are.

The throw that TMJ slowed up on was a dart.

Lol - having to pick an incomplete pass as his shining moment is exactly what I mean.  Cam went off in his first game.  Stroud and AR had some incredible throws today.  Young looked like Teddy B. out there.  I’m hoping it’s a fluke, but it was a very discouraging performance

The last time a starting rookie QB won his 1st game was in 2002.

What the f*ck?? That is just not true at all.

Brock Purdy won his first game last season.  I think what he meant to say is season opener.  But yea, there’s been several rookies to win their first game since 2002

I think we drafted Pickles again.  Smarter, but a noodle arm. 

This take makes no sense, particularly within the context of the game.

The O-line did better. 1st game for Sanders. It's gonna take time. There were some positives. But it looked like a rookie playing in a new system with new coaches and a lot of new faces. 

This thread pops up every year and same results
