Steve Young. 
Bucs drafted Testaverde, shipped Young to SFO.

How did you come to this conclusion, just on wins?  Young actually went on to study under a G.O.A.T. coach and QB to become a really good QB.  Arguably the biggest bust even though he a FEW more wins was JaMarcus Russell.  Dude was out of the League before his rookie contract was up.

I just thought it was interesting that Steve Young was the worst rookie #1 overall qb ever, Jamarcus was bad but not Steve Young Tampa Bay bad.

Russell was on a better overall team than Steve too and only with a few more wins to show for it.  Russell was out of the league in 3 years.

Steve Youngs  first year with a close to full season was his actual 2nd year in the league in 1986. This actually looks not too dissimilar to Bryces season. 2 wins, 8TD 13 INT, 2282 passing yards.

The weird thing with Steve Young is he did not have another full season again until 1992. Went 14-2 that year 29 TD 16 INT and he won the MVP that year.

They keep showing on these broadcasts that HOF QBs like Aikman and P.Manning and others had bad rookie seasons. Stafford, Goff, T.Lawerence also had somewhat bad or mediocre rookie years. 

This situation's going to take years to evaluate considering what we gave up to get Bryce. Hes getting at least his 2nd season in 2024. Probably 2025 as well if he doesnt play like dog poo. 

Ive vocal in criticising him this year but I'll give Bryce some credit where its due. He's been showing some  better poo later in the year. He had 2 crucial game winning drives vs Houston and vs Atlanta and hes had probably his best game of the year against Green Bay today.

      We looked like a competent NFL team PIE thread

      By Prowler2k18 · Posted

      We could easily pick apart yesterday’s game: dropped passes, blown coverages, bad tackling and red zone issues to name a few. But it was clear that this wasn’t the same team from earlier in the season. They fought back and hung with the champs until the end. That’s what I was excited to see and it gives me hope that we’re on the right track.

      Bryce developing before our eyes

      By Pejorative Miscreant · Posted

      I think BY played well today and exceeded expectations. I will temper future expectations as he has to string together many games of consistent quality. One game doesn’t convince me that he is a franchise QB or even a guy you want to stick with for another season. One game doesn’t erase all the negative play and limitations from the past couple of years. I hope he balls out and continues to get better but for me the verdict is still out   That said, I think he gave the team and fans hope yesterday which is a lot more than what we had when we woke up Sunday morning.

      Bryce Young - Good and Bad, what say you?

      By Ricky Prickles · Posted

      He was vastly improved today and we need to see more of Bryce the rest of the season to continue evaluate him in order to decide what the heck to do with him at the end of the season. He must play at least like this and improve more from here the rest of the season in order for me to keep him. No more 123 yard passing games and want to see at least this output weekly from him. If this is Bruce improving slowly over time then Canales is even better with developing QB's than I thought he was but still too early to tell and we need to see him the rest of the way as he has at very least earned back the starting gig moving forward.
