Yep.... Kinda, Sorta. "Almost there" = Hmm, I don't know about that...
BY has definitely improved. No doubt about it. However, I don't believe that HE deserves all of the props. Dan and Dave are building a team. I hope it continues. Right now, as we sit here, Young is nothing more than a 'game manager'. Of course, realistically speaking, most NFL QBs are 'game managers', so..... Anyway, BY has a long way to go before he will be a true #1, at least in my eyes. He hasn't faced a lot of GOOD teams. AND, he hasn't faced a steady diet of the best the NFL has to offer. Let's give him a few years before, you know, ( ... "Sliced Bread, Move Over -- There's a new sheriff in town"). Nope, not yet, no sirree Bob. I'm going to want to see more than a few games. I want to see a few seasons of exemplary play. More wins than losses. Multiple years of winning seasons, leadership and honors, Pro Bowls, All-Pros, etc., etc. --- THEN we can talk about how great BY is.
Until then.... ¿Quien sabe? There are at least 20 (or more) #1 QBs in this league I would rather see under center for the Panthers.... Seriously... If you could rank BY, where would he "fit" in the league right now.?? I would have to think about it, but I can guarantee it would NOT be anywhere near the top.
Hmmm, maybe that would be a good exercise.? I'll think about it....
