This is a sad albeit accurate statement about the state of the franchise.

The impression I get is that Young is better at handling adversity than Stroud. A part of it might just be that Young has gone through so much adversity at the start of his career, and so things don't really rattle him as much anymore. Stroud has a far easier start to his career but it has gotten harder since then. Protection isn’t as good. He lost Dell. He had a concussion this season. But it's still bizarre how he went in full panic mode in the playoffs. It's like his confidence vanished and there was no real trigger on why it did. And this is happening a few years in? Young does need to work on his mechanics but that I feel may be far easier to fix than what may be a mental thing with Stroud.

You can get the Athletic for $2 per month. But it isn’t impressive. It is all columnists mostly, not daily up reporting, not much gets written during the week. Baseball coverage is the same. That’s mostly what I follow. Foot and base ball.

I think that’s where the RPO number is coming from. Panthers can’t run a lot of play action under center from Bryce because it’ll always be a roll out or a quick pass to the flats. Remember his rookie year when it came out he couldn’t pick up the post snap defense after selling a PA, so he’d be looking back over his shoulder the entire time while doing the fake.

I’m not paying for the athletic because none of the panthers writers there are worth supporting. assuming this is on top of his extension and let’s just say they decide to do it after he completed a check down in the preseason, this is like 5 years 60 million, or 12 mil/season What’s even the point of keeping him if that’s all he’s worth? Why commit to five years of this if you value him only slightly more than Russell Wilson?

It would be more helpful they differentiated between the play action from the gun and from under center.

This is coming up next week. Here is a little primer from the NFL. I will post more as I find them. https://www.nfl.com/news/2026-senior-bowl-roster-reveal-things-you-need-to-know

Backup caliber money for backup caliber play

Agree wholeheartedly that a youngster beside Brown would be welcomed with open arms. A’Shawn is a great rotational guy but I want someone with a bit more pass rush juice and younger legs helping Brown out. I feel like we are doing with DB, what we did with Cam. Knowing how dominant they are as a 1-of-1 player, we aren’t supporting them with more talent around them. Putting JAGs like Shy and Ray out there were awful choices. I LOVE what the Rams have with done w/ Fiske-Verse-Young-Turner. Same with SEA - Murphy/Hall (draft) & Williams/Lawerence (trades). I think 2024 was a rough draft but our FO learned from it and had a successful ‘25 draft. I think this crew can find 3-4 starters again and land another late round/UDFA gem like Coker and Fitzgerald, we’re in business. We’re right where we should be (possibly a win or two/division crown early actually), and won’t be complete even with this offseason. I also think with a successful FA/draft, we’re at worst a 10-win team, and favorites to win the NFCS.

I wonder how they're defining "screens" because I see a lot more passes that I'd call screens in today's NFL than those low percentages.

Bryce Young is our Josh Allen, bro. Dan was here for that fiasco.

Until Morgan fixes the QB room or at least attempts to...Beane by a mile.

I wonder how much of the Davis Webb interviews are opportunities to see if he would be interested in leaving Payton to be an actual play caller. If he’s not selected as a HC, I could see him getting paired with Evero, being his OC on a big contract and play calling duties. HOWEVER, you risk losing him to a HC job in a year or two.

Yep. I couldn’t bear to read it all. Hunt is praising him. Derrick Brown is praising him. Reich is praising him to a lesser degree. He says not expected to be offered an extension before next season, but it is paving the way preparing the sheep for the news type of piece.

Wow. Nothing on Kaelon Black the other RB? I thought he looked great. Maybe a very late round guy or even UDFA.

I would say if we did, it would point to Tepper keeping his hands off and letting his people work. Chances of that? Highly doubtful. I would have to assume Morgan is a 4-3 fan.

Say what?

I saw them there. I didn't realize they were going to do the Evero interview there too. Makes sense why the McDaniels interview was right before it.

The 3-4 switch led us to Evero and both of these choices were reportedly David Tepper. I am gonna guess we will not be seeing any 4-3 in the foreseeable future here in Carolina.

We’ll find out soon enough.

yep. They all went to the game last night scouting their number one pick. Brady and I guess Davis and whoever else from the Raiders.

I mean is there a point with Evero? Even our own players act like he won't let them pin their ears back. I would say do it if 4-3 or even a DC that seemed to care about pressure lol.

Joe Person has a big piece in The Athletic today floating 3 years 33 million extension for Young. MF’n poo. Noteworthy it has Reich quotes in it. Complimentary too, but that’s Frank. Sure wish he would talk about his time here and why he was fired.

In the city of Miami??
