From the episode

Bryce Young hasn't really taken that leap you'd expect from a number one overall pick. And I think Canales knows that because he was calling plays last year. You could tell he was protecting him.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalProjection

Young is being shielded by a conservative, run-heavy scheme.

Bryce Young has not taken the expected leap for a number one overall pick. The coaching staff is shielding him with a low pass rate over expected and a heavy reliance on the run game, as he attempted only 9% of his passes downfield last year.
