Absolutely. I think he pans out if he had been drafted to a better place. I can’t name a head coach who handled QBs worse than Rhule did.

Cool but we didnt pass him. 3 times or even twice in that draft. He went before our second pick in that draft. Ikem is the only selection we had before he was taken.

I want to see XL catching more footballs and acting in no commercials.

Chris trapasso was all over it at the time. He was full on a Malik Willis stan lol

Steichen interviewed with us, he didn’t turn it down. Reports were that tepper wasn’t impressed with his zoom interview and ended up going with Reich and Steichen went to Indy. Colossal fail on our part.

I'll have to say Gamble and Lucas as well. There was one brief little stint where Lucas was ridiculously good. Very hard to get anything by him, along with Gamble who was always very steady and underrated. Norman and Peanut were really good too, but I feel they were more a product of our front 7 that year. Clean pockets were at a premium, so most passes were either hurried or off a little, on top of Norman playing at an elite level it basically was overkill.

General observations: 1. Too much pressure without having to send extra guys. Generally a bad situation to counter. 2. More success running out toward the perimeter. And yet, we kept going back inside where we struggled. 3. Panthers receivers beating man coverage remains a problem. 4. I feel Bryce has been baited into that type of throw before. 5. Seemed there wasn't as much misdirection.

What does this guy know? Big time throws don't even need to travel five yards, and we've got the guy for those throws.

So the fans who dont attend games in Chapel Hill would pack BofA?

I just don't want to end the season at the Bank in a false victory formation..

Fell asleep end of 2 and missed the comeback lol. Nice win!

Backing into the Playoffs with an 8-9 NFC South title is the most on brand thing possible for the Tepper owned Panthers.

Because he likely has the same fear a few of us do which is a win and playoff appearance means the FO will subject us to years more of Bryce and the QB play that comes with him. Bryce as our franchise QB for the next 5 years is like signing up to be punched in the dick a dozen Sundays a season for half a decade. Our FO has not made one right decision with our QB room in the 8 years Tepper has been owner. Do you trust them to make the right one if we make the playoffs with a one and done? If you knew missing the playoffs this year meant we would be a perennial contender in 3 years, would you cheer for missing the playoffs this year? I want them to win. I also want no 4th year, 5th year option or extension. I've seen more than enough. Sadly, I don't think we can have both options.

It wouldn't be about division, it would be about group record. The Panthers would be 2-0 vs the Falcons and 1-1 vs the Bucs. Therefore win the three way tiebreaker via a 3-1 record among the three teams.

Nice, no better way for the NFC South winner to be chosen that some crap like that. poo Mountain at its finest

I dont see how there can be 5 deep passes from goal line to goal line. 2 at most. A true deep ball is 40 plus in the air to me.

Good one. Can you imagine if we lose Saturday and the league has to wait on Atlanta to play their game a day later?

https://x.com/mysportsupdate/status/2005854209854373981?s=46&t=xeIgh_-Vr2aKxBkBJdfnKA The Panthers–Bucs game on Saturday is no longer a win-and-in game for Tampa. Even if the Bucs win, the Panthers would still take the division if the Falcons beat the Saints on Sunday

I mean would you find it useful to subdivide the over 19 yards stuff into some categories? Lot of ways that could be divided and give you some more accurate pictures than lumping everything that basically isn’t a short pass into one bin. Defining short medium intermediate long deep from 0 to 40 or 45 seems to offer far more detail out of your numbers than what they do now. That is one thing I learned thanks to Bryce - the 20 yard deep ball rule. I never ever considered 20 yards a deep shot, in my life. And everyone is talking about his deep ball… and it’s a 20 yard pass. I definitely rebelled.

The Panthers would be the 4th team in NFL history (including the 2014 Panthers) to win their division with a losing record. If the Falcons win and we lose, of course. Let’s just take care of business and beat Tampa.
