I'm Sold on Drew Allar

After watching BY9 all of last year and a few games this year, I’m amazed by any other QB where any other QB is so accurate, possesses such a strong arm, is so mobile and athletic, etc. I find myself falling in love with any QB just because it’s not Bryce. 

I have that as well and I'm pretty sure there is some psychological diagnosis that could be labeled on us for that just don't know what they call it....I just call it "Bryce Syndrome". It's almost like when you have gone without a woman in a while on a severe dry spell and the slutty ugly chick at the bar with chipped teeth who smells like wet dog that nobody wants to touch ends up looking like a perfect 10 and you take her home and think you just took home prime Jessica Alba.

The guy is big. He looks like a Rothlisberger in the pocket.  Many of his completions came from being under pressure and having guys in his face.

 

 

Hell, i'm so damaged in my brain by getting behind and having hope for Bryce when drafted even though concerned by his size the being hugely let down that any big QB now looks enticing to me to draft which I know isn't a good mindset

I find it more like now that I have been forced to watch Young so much it isn’t as much of a shock to my senses.  
Desensitized they call it.  

For real, it just looks normal almost now. Where the first game of 2023 I wasn’t sure what I was looking at it was so out of bounds for NFL type play. I literally couldn’t make sense of what I had seen vs Atlanta that first week.

Allar was Top 3 for me entering the season. Now, I have him about 5th. 

He's a 2nd Rounder.

Big guy, strong arm, but man he makes some wild decisions sometimes. His upside is to develop into a Josh Allen type, but he could just as easily be a Paxton Lynch.

He has 4 ints this year and is throwing 71% completetion vs top 25 with a qb rating of 125.  What wild decisions are you talking about?  He is also building off of a pretty good 2023 season which is encouraging to see.

Is this the QB you were comparing to Peyton Manning last weekend?

 

That in itself was a joke!

    • We don't need to know what % was his fault last year because it was all bad enough to know to not sign up for more of it. Look at the stuff he was directly responsible for being the point man on, the pro-personnel, and the stuff he was involved in should tell you enough. If you have to discount it to make it look better than you already knew the answer. It's just making excuses for all of those people. Hoping something changes while discounting the work they already done here has proven to be a losing strategy every time so far. Maximus Copius Bulshitetus i think is the Latin name for that phenonium. 
    • 1) Signed 2 high profile guards to big contracts. Did we need guards? Yes. But there's a reason you draft guards and pay tackles. It's easier to find solid guards in the draft. Now we have the most expensive line in the league and still can't get 100 yards passing before halftime.  2) Traded up to get a RB when we didn't really need one. Chuba is one of the better RBs in the league right now and while it is a contract year, we had a crap ton of holes all over. Brooks was a luxury pick we didn't have the luxury to make. 3)Spending a small fortune to build a supporting cast for BY. Bryce didn't even put the work in himself during the offseason by his own admission. We didn't need to build an offense specifically for BY. We brought in DJ and drafted XL. These guys need a QB with a live arm. That's not BY. Speed kills but not when your QB can't legitimately make an accurate, deep ball strike without putting a ton of air under it and floating it.  4. Not looking for a true center. There were several available and it's been a position of need for years. We could have had our choice but we rolled with Corbitt, who did look good at the spot, but had an injury bug that struck again this year.  5) He didn't bring in any serious competition for Bryce. Now you can say that BY needs time to develop and we needed to show we had faith in him, blah blah blah. But the simple matter of fact is Bryce looked like a PS QB last year, Andy has one foot in the QB grave, and there was never an attempt to actually compete for the job. If he genuinely believed that BY was going to magically make it all come together watching YT and chillin for 4 months to unplug, then there's nothing else that needs to be said.  The goal of every GM should be to build a winning team. Players are commodities and loyalty leads you to an early walk out the door. We've tried to build a system to work around the most limited QB in NFL history. 60 years of history should have told him it was never going to work. And benching BY after 2 games is the real truth, he never should have been starting anyway. And either Dan should have known that as the great MLB that he was after watching BY's game tape, or someone else is making the call and Dan is just rubberstamping that decision.  Either way, doesn't matter. We're screwed because we've devoted 2 years of resources to build around a player that didn't put in the work in the off season after one of the worst NFL QB seasons ever. 
    • Something I find interesting is that you are more likely to find successful players as UDFA's than you are to find them with a single pick in any round past 3.  Those 3rd round compensatory choices?  Largely worthless.  Yes, I get it, there are a lot more UDFA's than there are drafted players in later rounds.  Basically, if you're fishing for starters you are simply not going to find anything in Rounds 4 - 7 with any regularity.
