What would a successful game for Young look like?

Yeah, I don't have much to add to what CRA said. I want to see downfield passing.

ACCURATE downfield passing. Downfield completions. Not interceptions. Not sailing. Not skipping.

That's the only thing he could show me that makes me have hope. But likewise, I expect I'll actually see a bunch of outlets, dump offs, screens, and five-yard hooks.

Ride in on a unicorn, look like an actual NFL player in game and then ride off the field on Santa's sleigh after a win...because all of that is a fantasy.

The real win would be his last game in a Panther uniform. IR from a bruised career would be the win I desperately need to make this nightmare end.

13 minutes ago, CRA said:

attack 15-25 yards downfield.  Probably need about 4-5 balls completed in that range.  And it being done largely from the pocket. 

I think that would be a sign of promise.  

In addition to the above:

I'd like to see some type of chemistry with a receiver not named Adam Thielen, who may play this week. AT is clearly his favorite target. If AT finishes with 4 or 5 catches that would be fine if XL, Coker, and DJ are getting multiple targets as well.

    • Team is dangerous right now, all four lines are contributing and the speed at which the guys play at is tremendous.
    • And every nfl player wannabe tries to up their draft position through things like the combine and theyre all basically lying though those drills theyve practiced hundreds of times that have little bearing on if theyre a good football player. The pro days are even worse. All you have to do is dupe 1 team. Is it right? No. But until teams put more emphasis on college tape vs. What they did in shorts with no defense it'll happen every year. I doubt there is a single player that wouldn't try anything to up their draft prospects.  Young had years of tape and that shouldve been what the decision was based on. Not a scale and throwing in shorts.  ( btw I think the combine and pro days are 90% a waste of time) Young has it financially made already. It's up to him if he wants to be a good football player too. I think the benching was the best thing that could've happened to him. It remains to be seen if it was enough
    • This.  Honest introspection on his behalf would have seen that size and strength were his biggest weaknesses. He looks no different. With the programs in the NFL, he could have come back to camp 10 lbs of muscle heavier. Easily. If had done so, it would have been reported on. It would have been the hottest story…. But we never saw anything of the sort, so it probably never happened.  He showed improvement this last game, likely from Andy’s tutelage. He has to show something VERY special to close the season out to change my thinking on him… like 4 game winning streak with a clutch 4th quarter comeback. Then maybe.
