00:00 Carolina Panthers, they have started off the season 0-4.
00:03 A lot of criticism coming to Bryce Young,
00:06 obviously their starting quarterback, their rookie,
00:08 as well.
00:09 Did the Panthers make a mistake with drafting Bryce Young,
00:11 you think?
00:13 Look, it's too early to say anything definitively.
00:16 But it's not looking good.
00:18 And I'm not going to say that as a pure diss to Bryce Young,
00:21 you know, rooting for him to do well.
00:23 He played a little bit better this past weekend.
00:26 But it's not just about Bryce Young and the fact
00:29 that he hasn't been great thus far.
00:31 It's the other quarterbacks that were
00:33 picked at the top of the draft.
00:35 CJ Stroud is lighting it up.
00:37 He's carrying himself like a leader.
00:40 And statistically, he's on--
00:42 you know, in the midst of one of the best rookie campaigns
00:45 we've ever seen.
00:46 Not to mention, Anthony Richardson
00:48 looks like a complete beast for the Indianapolis Colts.
00:51 So when two of your contemporaries,
00:53 two of your peers, are picked after you
00:56 and they look better than you, not to mention the fact
00:58 that the Panthers gave up another first round pick
01:01 in order to move up to select you,
01:04 so far the returns do look like the Panthers may have
01:08 messed up in making that move.
01:10 I feel like we just got to give it a little bit more time
01:12 before we make this call.
01:13 At the end of the day, he's only 22 years old,
01:15 only played in four regular season NFL games.
01:18 And I also don't think the Panthers' sole issue
01:21 is Bryce Young.
01:22 For reference, he was sacked five times yesterday.
01:24 They only rushed for 83 yards.
01:27 Sometimes there's growing pains with a rookie QB.
01:29 You knew who also had growing pains his rookie
01:31 season in the NFL?
01:32 Peyton Manning.
01:33 He threw 28 interceptions his first season in the NFL,
01:36 but the Colts also went 3-13 that year.
01:39 So I think he was picked number one for a reason.
01:41 I think we got to give it a little bit more time.
01:44 Apropos for Bryce, it's a small sample size.
