Fitterer secured Ryan Poles job for 5 more years.

Yeah which I think will burn Chicago a bit too. Poles chose Fields over Stroud

No one thought we’d be THAT bad last year. At best Chicago was thinking they’d maybe get 6-10 pick range with out 1st rounder 

Chicago has need a QB since forever. Poles got very lucky that we were as incompetent as we were last year. And most likely this year again too since they have our 2nd

Before I go looking, can you provide me with what exactly you're looking for? Are you looking specifically for a go route down the sideline where the ball travels at least 40yds through the air and the WR has to snag it with one hand because the defender is still on him?

Genuinely asking here because Bryce will make a solid throw and the same people sharing the sentiment we're discussing (re: not being able to throw deep) will do everything they can to try and invalidate what their eyes are seeing.

If we're having a good faith convo tho, I've got two queued up already.

There are many people within the fanbase that are dug in on their positions regarding QB. They are all understandable. Some believe no matter what without consistent verified results because they are tired of being what they perceive to be negative even though others simply regard it as reality. Others don't believe and won't believe until they see those consistent results from a first overall pick. And that is what separates a jag who can occasionally make certain throws but more often than not doesn't get it done. That's not a franchise QB. That's not even a flash in the pan. That's not even a Sam Darnold or a Kyle Allen or a Matt Moore. That's simply a swing and a miss.

Some people complain to no end about the existence of this discussion but taking that out on fans here is misplaced. We do not control day to day team operations. The staff made the decision they made regarding the first week of preseason and set this back in motion. Direct the complaints of the state of discourse where it belongs. Shooting the messenger isn't helping either.

Yeah just a go down the sidelines 

A lot of Young’s deep completions came on post routes 

I know he semi dropped one into Chark’s lap down the sideline. I believe Chark dove for it but hit his hands 

60yds through the air against Georgia. Read the defense and put it out in front of Williams where only he could get it.

Timestamped the stutter and go route.

Is there a reason that you specifically want a go route and not crossers, posts, corners, or other deep routes?

Every discussion will turn towards Bryce because its the biggest move we've ever made.  The team bet everything on him.  That's all that matters right now.  Regardless of how you feel about it, I think most would agree that Bryce is one of the only things that matters this year.

Yah that A&M ball was the one I specifically mentioned where Jamo absolutely roasts the guy. 

And that Jamo Georgia ball still isn’t the same. 

I want one on one, WR beats corner outside and Young hits him in stride along the sidelines. If we’re talking about a franchise QB this is a type of throw that shouldn’t be THIS hard to find. That’s the issue a lot of us have with Young. His limited deep ball ability and his deep ball accuracy simply isn’t good. 

It’s really limits the offense as a whole

Counting on Carolina’s incompetence isn’t really a luck thing. With any awareness at all it’s pretty obvious.

      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.
