It seems that NFL fans have already concluded that Carolina Panthers quarterback Bryce Young is not a starting quarterback in this league. It only took about a season and two games, but Panthers and NFL fans are all in agreement that Young is not it.
Bryce Young Is A Backup Quarterback in The NFL

Young was taken as the No. 1 overall pick in the 2023 NFL draft, and the team spent everything to get him. He was an incredible college quarterback and a Heisman Trophy winner, but since then, he hasn’t shown even a sign for Panthers fans to be optimistic about.
Carolina had the worst record this previous season, but their number one pick did not belong to them, because they used it to get Young. That pick turned out to be Caleb Williams. The team is now off to a 0-2 start and can kiss any thought of being above .500 goodbye.
The team has many issues on the roster besides their quarterback, and many of their issues are not Young’s fault. However, the former Heisman winner has not looked good either. He has missed wide-open receivers consistently and leaves the pocket to take sacks for no reason.
He does not seem to have the ability to move the ball downfield and with his stature and lack of any elite athleticism, it does not seem like he is a starting quarterback in the NFL. The turnover does not help either.
While Young is only in year 2 of his career, and he has plenty of time to grow and get better, it seems that fans are fed up with him already because of what the team had to give up for him.

While Young should be given more time as he was a No. 1 overall pick, fans are all already convinced that he is going to be a bust:

“Well Bryce Young will not only go down as the biggest bust in NFL history but the trade to get him will always be known as the worst trade in NFL history. Tepper you’re a piece of (crap) owner who has done nothing but damage this team. End our suffering and sell the team,” one fan wrote.
“Bryce Young is done, trade him for literally any amount of compensation. It’s over, one of the biggest busts ever,” one fan added.
“Is Bryce Young the biggest NFL bust of all time,” one fan added.
“Bryce Young sucking really isn’t rocket science. His only knock was that he is a historical outlier in both size and weight at the position while lacking any plus physical traits to make up for it,” one fan added.
“I don’t understand how everyone got Bryce Young so wrong. He was great in college, he had experience, he faced quality competition, his brain was considered his biggest asset, and his only knock was that he was tiny how is he this bad,” one fan added.
