Also from PFF:

PICK NO. 1: CAROLINA PANTHERS: QB BRYCE YOUNG
Overall Rookie Grade: 55.6 (Rank: 6/6)
Principal Opponent: N/A
Week 16 Snaps: 66
Week 16 Grade: 82.0

For the second straight week, Young saved his best for last. He just narrowly missed his second consecutive victory but tallied 300 passing yards for the first time in his career. It was also his first game with three big-time throws. Young posted a 97.6 overall grade in the fourth quarter against Green Bay, which stands as the second-best quarter by any quarterback this year. Despite all the turmoil around him, it’s encouraging to see Young put forth back-to-back productive efforts.

Honestly the last two weeks have given reason for excitement. He does need to keep this going, and fug would I be pumped if he finished the season on a tear, but let's not get too far ahead of ourselves just yet. Either way, I think we saw glimpses of why he was a first round QB pick the last two weeks (and honestly, he's had some plays earlier where we did too).

It is completely possible there were too many voices in his hand and he was listening to too many different people and not focusing on enough on any one thing. I hope that was it.

Footwork is still a major concern, but footwork IS fixable.

It didn't hurt to be facing the leagues worst secondary. 

IDC, I will take it either way.

If nothing else maybe this will be a collective boost of confidence.

The Packers aren't actually THE worst secondary. They're one of about a dozen teams with a bad passing defense... I don't even know if they're the worst secondary we've faced yet..

Wonder what that Rank 6/6 means... 6/6 out of all rookie QBs? If so how is AR15 ahead of him lol

6/6 of graded rookie QBs on the year overall. AR is on the link, he's not part of the 6/6 as he was out in week 5. The other QBs aren't in the first round I think and I don't pay for PFF, so not sure who all qualifies.

I am a little confused how BY has an 84+ grade the last two weeks (for reference, CJ is at 82 all season) when I thought he was 79 last week and he's 82 this week...?  Who knows, PFF has so many different stats for players I don't try to figure out where their numbers actually come from week to week without a subscription lol

So we like PFF this week then? It seems to vary from moment to moment.

I think we like when media sources say nice things about our players.  Especially in such a shitty situation

I don't put much stock in their individual numbers week to week, but it's nice when a player is recognized by a media outlet that had been pretty harsh on him (understandably) for playing pretty well.

Just like most else in sports media, it means basically nothing but it's fun to talk about.

      If you wanted Danny Dimes here’s the chance

      By Jackie Lee · Posted

      Strange, every news article and tweet I just searched all mentioned waivers. It is definitely his sixth year of at least 6 games. All I was trying to think of earlier was at the vet min could he beat out Bryce in camp next year lol. He's kinda got the old Darnold issue where he can obviously launch deep balls and qb run at a level Bryce will never achieve, but it sounds like he would be content being like a Josh Allen backup who doesn't throw the whole game plan out the window if he has to come in for a series or two. If we had him and for some reason still wanted to start Bryce he would kinda do what Justin Fields was doing the other night with Dangeruss, coming in for designed runs and maybe some play action/triple option rpo things to go deep. That would be so obvious and sad though. At least Russ can still sling it 40 yards in the air with a flick of the wrist

      Too late to edit above but the quote is from this Diane Russini article in the Athletic: https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5941684/2024/11/23/russinis-what-im-hearing-the-day-the-jets-fell-apart-and-the-broncos-rallied-belichick-best-fits/ Okay.. there you have sorry I left that out the first post.  Also waivers keep the contract intact. That is the major difference in released and waived. It's all in that link from the other post.

      Okay so I am reading something in The Athletic and it says that Jones had to pass through waivers. So I don't know. I looked this stuff up when we were number one there all offseason and I thought it said 4 years in the league got you vested, as they call it.  Vested gets you out of waivers as I understood it. I probably got something wrong, but when I think about the slack quality of journalism these days I wonder about that. So I went and looked, again. Well, well.  For everyone: "When a player has accrued at least four seasons in the NFL, they are considered a vested veteran. When these vested veterans get cut, they are released and their contract is terminated. When a vested veteran is released, they are an unrestricted free agent that can sign with any NFL team, and the team that released them doesn’t need to provide any additional compensation." It runs it all down here, where the quotes came from: https://www.profootballnetwork.com/waived-vs-released-nfl/ As far as Jones, the team turned down his 5th year option so I knew that meant he had 4 years in, because they re-signed him anyway, after turning down the much cheaper extra year.  The Athletic is owned by the New York Times so I shouldn't be surprised. That paper was an institution once upon a time but they let their standards go.
