Oh you're talking about the big time throws stat. Yeah I agree and I don't really even know what that means. Seams like a subjective stat. -
I also need to reiterate that nothing I've said means I'm rooting for him to fail, when he's our starting QB come week 1 next year, I'm 100% rooting for him to have an MVP season and show he can be our franchise QB, as that would be what is best for this franchise. I just don't see it happening Sure, I no longer think he's the biggest bust in NFL history who shouldn't even be on a roster like I did after last year and the start of this one. I'll give him that credit, that he's turned it around and shown me more than enough to say that's no longer the case. But even after his turnaround, I'm now back to, at best, my pre-draft evaluation of him as someone who will end up in that "20-25th best QB in the league" category. Which unfortunately in today's NFL is purgatory, that's someone probably too good for a team to ever let walk in free agency but not good enough to ever truly have you be in SB contention. Honestly, his peak potential for me is probably a Sam Darnold this year, someone who has a beneficial schedule so you put up a good record, but in the end, never really stood a chance at this time of the year. Because in the end, his physical abilities and limitations are always going to be a hinderance for him at this level. It's like I said before we drafted him, Bryce needs to be the literal biggest outlier in the history of the NFL to end up being successful. -

His first 18 games were pretty bad for the most part. I had all but given up on him after the first 2 this year. But he's been playing good football the last 10. I mean good football. It's not unfair to reference stats but you have to dig deeper than yards and TDs a game. I mean I know you realize that we really don't have weapons here to put up gaudy passing numbers. Isn't that why you keep drumming for Tet? DJ was supposed to be that guy, but he went full Antonio Brown. Here, a poster referenced deeper stats that showed Bryce was actually getting through his progressions at a high tick compared to the rest of the league, which is unusual and impressive for a young QB. But rather than say that's a good thing, we should punch holes in it? We should find the negative and point out that he isn't passing for 300 yards a game - with Adam Thielen as his #1 target? No offense to Thielen but he shouldn’t be anyone's #1 receiver at this stage in his career. Maybe safety blanket. But not #1 guy. I'm just saying. When he's playing bad. It's ok to say he's playing bad. I know I do. But when he's looking good, it's ok to say he looks good, without caveats. Hopefully this is a turning point for him going forward, but he's never going to consistently meet your passing criteria with a receiving group that isn't put together to put up big numbers. Other QBs have receivers that make people miss and break long plays all the time. We've rarely seen that this year at all. I mean I can't even recall a screen pass to a receiver that went over 15 yards all year. I don't know if he will definitely be the franchise QB, but going by his recent play he looks to be the part - to me and alot of impartial experts.
