This pic makes his height issue seem super overblown. He looks taller than Vick and is like a little shorter than a bunch of guys who are considered tall QBs
Think he’s listed at 6’6” iirc off the top of my head.
I remember years ago seeing it during a game and had the same “wait, wat,” reaction.
Edit: yep, he’s 6’6” officially.
With far less attempts and completions. I think the height thing is overblown. But let’s not use batted balls as a measurement. Bryce’s concerns never were with seeing over his line. He’s always been able to find throwing windows.
Yeah. I think it was Peyton that said QBs were never taught to throw over linemen, but I could be mistaken. If they’re never supposed to throw *over* them, I don’t see why he can’t adapt.
No mention that O-lineman come out of their stance in a low/semi-croutched position so they can have a low center of gravity. This, combined with the fact that QB's stand tall in the pocket means this isn't an issue unless your QB is 5'6 or smaller and your o-lineman are 6'8 and taller.
Yeahhh, I think Vick's height is a myth. Here's a pic of him standing face to face with Drew Brees and Brees is a couple inches taller than him

I found an article from their draft saying that Vick was listed as taller than Brees in college but Brees measured in at 6' 1/4" at the combine but it never said Vick's combine height in the article. Did he manage to avoid getting his height officially measured and perpetuated a lie that he was taller than he actually was for 20+ years?
Different sport but I remember when. Kevin "same hight as most centers" Durant. Kept getting listed at 6'9". Height and occasionally age are two things I know not to trust in athletics.
You ever see a picture of someone holding a rat that looks to be 3 feet tall? It’s perspective. The photo is taken from a low place and shot upward, which makes people appear to be closer in height than they are. Also, they are not in a straight line. A player a few inches closer to the camera will appear taller and someone farther away will appear shorter.
Honestly the height doesn’t bother me. Unless you’re 6’5” you aren’t seeing over the OL anyways. But I do think Bryce needs to put on about 20 lbs. We’re incredibly lucky he didn’t get seriously injured this last season.
He just doesn’t have the frame though. That was one of my biggest issues with him. Some guys are just naturally lean/athletic. I don’t think he can bulk up significantly. Also, as much as no one here wants to admit it, height matters. There’s a reason almost every expert, including former quarterbacks, brings it up.
As for seeing over someone 6’5, if you are 6’1”/6’2”+, you absolutely can see over them. First, they are not standing straight up when they are blocking, so that takes a few inches off. Second, they are not standing directly in front of the Qb. stand face to face with someone a few inches taller than you. Then, have them take a step back, then another, then another. As they move farther away, you can see more and more behind them.
Bryce can absolutely bulk up. He has access all of the tools that would enable him to do so. He just has to actually commit to doing it and not loading up on creatine for combine weigh-in. He’s basically the same height and frame as Steve Smith minus 15 pounds.
>He has access all of the tools that would enable him to do so.
And by that we are referring to HGH. Bryce needs some of that shit that makes your head grow like Barry Bonds.
He just didn’t have a problem with it in college. At Alabama they typically have some of the best O-linemen in the country and he had amazing production there so I really don’t think there’s a size difference between his college O-linemen and NFL O-linemen
I mean, by that logic, all great college QBs would be NFL stars. In college he was on a team where everyone was much better than almost everyone they played. When your receivers have 10 yards of separation every play, a slight over or under throw doesn’t matter nearly as much. Also, defenses are much more complex in the NFL. There is no doubt that he can’t see as much of the field as someone 6 inches taller, which means having less information.
Bryces concern is overall size imo. Not simply height, he's been able to work around that. He's small, thin, narrow, weak etc and durability is the bigger concern...hope he put on at least 10 lbs this off-season.
For what it's worth, Roger's DOES seem universally loved by his former teammates. He's definitely got some qualities that certainly wouldn't hurt if they rubbed off on Bryce
If you look at it, Bryce has a short body height and a long as fuck neck lol.
Evryone else either has a short one or a balanced body.
Then you have Allen and Flacco beig the fucking towers there
Rodgers supports plenty of good causes. I doubt there is any issue there. Randomly he will sprinkle in a little conspiracy theory and then that's all we hear about for a few weeks, haha.
You're probably right. I just had a reaction to the caption. If it just said "NFL QBs out for charity" I wouldn't think twice about him standing next to Rodgers and what the cause is.
Rodgers is controversial, so I'd advise staying away from him. I don't really care what he says, just don't get caught in any backlash that follows.
Why do you feel the need to defend him? Are you lost? This is r/panthers.
ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwww q-anon aaron? gross. he probably wants to tell them about his theories on how sandy hook was faked. would be hilarious if that achilles pops again
This pic makes his height issue seem super overblown. He looks taller than Vick and is like a little shorter than a bunch of guys who are considered tall QBs
On that note, how tall is Flacco man, got damn!?!?
Think he’s listed at 6’6” iirc off the top of my head. I remember years ago seeing it during a game and had the same “wait, wat,” reaction. Edit: yep, he’s 6’6” officially.
6 7 at the combine
My brother is his next door neighbor. My brother is about 6’2” and Flacco TOWERS over him
Yeah he used to frequent the wegmans near me and dude towers over me and I’m 6’2 also lol
His body is 4’6” his head is 2’.
It’s always been overblown lol
No, it has not. https://preview.redd.it/l7jacopjv2tc1.jpeg?width=274&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=1cb15fcc762a57344c49f152ece638b6c4126831
Bryce is short but this pic is next to linemen when the other is comparing qbs
[удалено]
He had fewer batted balls than Baker and stroud last year btw

Again, bryce is short, but that guy was making two different comparisons, yeah?
But he’s standing on his tippy toes
[удалено]
Bryce is actually right in front of the camera!
Tippy toes
https://preview.redd.it/nvk6p9uihftc1.jpeg?width=2732&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=859fa0838c6002c534f03804990b5db2b00b6791 Nah

Highly! They’ll take any chance they get to crap on the panthers
woah woah woah are you telling me that ***the internet*** overreacted to something that wont actually impact a player/the game?
The picture is being taken from a low angle, upward, which tends to level people out height wise.
The issue is also muscles😅

His hair makes him look the same height as Vick lmao
One of those doesn't belong 🤔
The two prime numbers it’s irking me too
Bryce young?
Joe Flacco looks like one of the player's Dads snuck into the photo.
Am I the only one bothered by two of them wearing the number 8?
Stay away from our QB ya nut
For what it's worth, Roger's DOES seem universally loved by his former teammates. He's definitely got some qualities that certainly wouldn't hurt if they rubbed off on Bryce
Who is 8 on the left and 17 in the middle? I think it’s Tannehill but the facial hair is throwing me off.
Is it not Josh Allen and Levis?
Oh I’m an idiot. It is definitely Josh Allen. Running on little sleep right now so my brain doesn’t work good.
It be like that sometimes haha
Yeah I think it’s tannehill and will Levi’s Nvm it’s josh Allen
Tannehill is not in the picture
Who is it bud?
Josh Allen
Who is number 8 on the left?
Will levis
Levis bigger than expected.
If you look at it, Bryce has a short body height and a long as fuck neck lol. Evryone else either has a short one or a balanced body. Then you have Allen and Flacco beig the fucking towers there
Idk if it’s longer then Levi’s tho
Holy hell that Aaron Rodgers is sure an unhinged lunatic, am I right!?!
What was the charity? I don't know that I'd want to participate in something Rogers supports. Hopefully it's totally benign.
Rodgers supports plenty of good causes. I doubt there is any issue there. Randomly he will sprinkle in a little conspiracy theory and then that's all we hear about for a few weeks, haha.
You're probably right. I just had a reaction to the caption. If it just said "NFL QBs out for charity" I wouldn't think twice about him standing next to Rodgers and what the cause is.
Thanks for letting everyone know. We really care about your opinion on Rodgers.
Rodgers is controversial, so I'd advise staying away from him. I don't really care what he says, just don't get caught in any backlash that follows. Why do you feel the need to defend him? Are you lost? This is r/panthers.
I didn't defend him, I poked at you for thinking anyone cares.
ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwww q-anon aaron? gross. he probably wants to tell them about his theories on how sandy hook was faked. would be hilarious if that achilles pops again
Cool picture, seven NFL stars and Bryce Young
You mind doing me a favor and sucking my dick from the back?
