Vic Fangio praises Bryce Young’s growth ahead of Eagles-Panthers game
Vic Fangio praised Bryce Young's development and explained why the Panthers quarterback presents a different challenge for the Eagles defense.
In Charlotte, North Carolina, there is a story unfolding as the Philadelphia Eagles prepare to face the Carolina Panthers. The team's first overall pick in the 2023 NFL Draft, Bryce Young, is exceeding expectations and living up to the hype surrounding him. Vic Fangio, the defensive coordinator for the Eagles, has closely observed Young's progress since their first encounter when Young was still a rookie.
Fangio commended Young's improvement, highlighting his ability to process defenses, make quick decisions, and anticipate where the ball needs to go. He described Young as an "elusive scrambler" with exceptional anticipation. Fangio emphasized that these qualities make defending Young particularly challenging for the Eagles' defense.
The Eagles must account for Young's decision-making, anticipation, and mobility, while also remaining disciplined against Carolina's balanced offense. Fangio's assessment underscores the need for the Eagles to evaluate the Panthers' current offense rather than relying on outdated footage from their previous game together.
