No, he's a game manager...at best.  We get to see next year. I think he's about hit his ceiling.

If he completes his passes at a high percentage and does not turn the ball over, then whats the problem with being a "game manager".

That's basically a QBs job, anyways. Taking the chances on big plays when its appropriate and the rewards outweigh the risk.

It can be argued that the best names were so successful because of how well they managed the offense. Mahomes, Brady, Manning.

Gunslingers like Favre, Winston, and Mayfield are super fun to watch and can be big play making, crowd-go-wild fun. They also tend to make extremely EXTREMELY stupid plays that lead to turnovers, putting defenses in poor positions repeatedly, and super frustrating unnecessary turnovers that cause the team to lose.

here we go again comparing Bryce Young to some NFL legendary Qb's .you can't just disregard his other 70% of bad games & get a true & factual picture of who Bryce Young really is as a Qb

& what happens when Bryce Young plays a defense like the Cardinals & performs above average &  then when̈ he plays a good defense like the Cowboys well he looks like an entirely different Qb.

that's the thing with Bryce Young there is no consistency in his game & more often than not there is way more bad than good performances .

so just saying is there enough good to ignore the bad ?

i mean if you do not think any of this makes any sense then look no further than around the league at  Qb's like Jameis Winston for example who yes has had some really good games in the past but at the same time Jamèis Winston is still a below average Qb who is very inconsistent & throws alot of interceptions

My friend is a Bears fan and sent me a video of Williams' TD throw to Allen today.

My response was simply: "Young can't make that throw" - and that's ultimately the problem. 

Yes

for the team, the fans, the franchise, the other players and for Young himself, glad he looks good ..Glad he doesn’t look crushed   glad he is improving 

this franchise has so many needs helped along by poor GM and Owner   We know this  This young needs to be here next year regardless 

however, people talk about a speed receiver, as if that changes things…

…if the QB does not have the arm strength for that long pass with sufficient velocity to out pace the closing speed of NFL cornerbacks, that speed receiver won’t do much good, even as a decoy.  I need to see Young be able to do that

…and if he can’t do it, you will see defenses do what Dallas and Parsons did 2 sundays ago

that short arm to an open Thielen in the end zone against Dallas should give everyone pause

jayden Daniels is special…has every tool and the mind needed   Drake Maye might become that too  they both would have gotten that ball to the end zone 

when I look at young compared against those….well…the game manager, that needs perfection 

not trying to denigrate young or people who support them

Yes and better DL, LB, CB, S, TE, and possibly K in addition to more WRs.   So again, we have to build the entire team around Bryce for him to be _______.  The word I would insert is average.  If it was so easy to plug every hole on the roster in order to prop up a QB, every team would do it, yet how many succeed?

No, we just need better receivers.
