Yeah, like they tried to close the door but it didn’t latch because Bryce Young’s huge balls were stuck in it. Now the fire department has shown up with the jaws of life to see if they can open the door and save the balls.

Shelf him for who? The ghost of fuging Andy Dalton? Bryce was meant to start this full season. Sink or swim.

How? The d is playing much better than last season We just held a good offense to about half of their normal production. Our biggest weakness is the pass rush obviously, but the D is light years better than last season.

last 2 weeks really make things hard to sort of figure out what we got going on this year. In terms of what the D really is and isn't and probably the same for the run game.

Option 2 for me He’s only 24 years old and this organization set him up to fail horribly from day 1 Seems like there may be a light at the end of tunnel all of a sudden but until I see this organization turn it around and see Bryce with a proper team around him I don’t want to see them ship him off

yep. Rico Dowdle extended Bryce Young's audition. If not for Rico......and the next game being Dallas? You got to think Tepper/Canales shelf him again like last year if Rico didn't flip that game on it's head. That's how that was reading.

he's not it, but give him the season to prove himself

Sadly, he was one of the few guys that actually had a sack... Should be a good battle of movable force meets stopable object when our pass rush meets the Jet's pass protection

I legit contemplated having an "I'm a sassy apathetic fan doing my thang" choice

I am not convinced his personal is past high teens. That is peak. He has to be somewhere in the 20s right now and that fluctuates week to week. The Miami game, the local ESPN duo Chris Rae and partner did a postgame and said his teammates saved his job. That the whole stadium and I think including the press box (them for sure) had him benched and done. And his teammates saved him Unlike these claims that people say he can’t throw 5 yards and 25 yards, this happened. I’ll find the clip. Two weeks ago.

I mean, there is what I think. Then there is what I think the Panthers think. and I think the Panthers have consistently shown that their thinking and decision-making in the Tepper era at the QB spot is what they are worst at. We are keeping Cam. No, Cam is gone. Teddy is here. We have a plan. Forget that plan, Teddy insulted us. We have Sam. I mean, we have Baker. I mean, we sold the farm for the #1 overall pick and we will figure out who we want. Bryce is the guy. 2 games into year 2, the Bryce ride is over. Wait a minute, we had to bring him back and now we are going to give him a year 3.

fug that grab Judon or Yannick

Went with the "he's not the answer" option, but in reality, I fall somewhere between that one and the door is closed barring a major run. For me to be okay with him coming back, or god forbid even worse, give him an extension, it's not that he has to go on a "major run" the rest of this year, that's not emphatic enough of wording. He needs to literally be in the MVP discussion at the end of the season, like Top 5 MVP candidate when the season is over to even warrant giving him a 4th year. Of course I don't think this is remotely possible, which is why I went with the "he's not the answer" option. I still think there is a possibility of him being a low end NFL starter as a decent game manager, but to me, that's not the type of guy you re-sign to an extension, that's the guy who becomes the new Teddy Two Gloves or Dalton before we signed him. The guy who teams sign to be their bridge starter for a season or part of a season if they have their rookie waiting in the wings to take over when ready.

Sucks for him but ride the young guys.

I wonder if this means we bring back DJ Johnson.

Or even someone like Trevor Lawrence who isn't a game manager. Paying a mid to low end QB top 10 money is cap suicide.

Where does this completely new claim of people lying about his arm strength like this 5 yard claim, and another right now today that claims ‘people’ say he can’t throw 20 yards, where is this coming from?

Not a franchise changing guy, but there's only a handful of those in the league. His peak is probably a Top 12-15 QB with a great situation around him. Is that the answer you want? No, but is it better than some? Sure...but he's still got to get to that top end level on a consistent basis which seems highly unlikely.

Pat Jones out for the rest of the season because of back surgery

I want him, just can’t pay a game manager big bucks. Look at tua. Making 50 mil to flounder and can’t get much help because of his cap hit.

I sure haven’t seen it either. There is a ton of reframing and twisting critical comments and putting words into peoples mouths going on the last couple of weeks. Not good faith debate.

Yes but this is the Kyle Allen argument. The eye test for Allen was rough even during the "Baby GOAT" streak. To an extent Bryce is similar. The eye test isn't the best even in these wins. TO's, missed throws, missed reads, etc. However, he has definitely made some good to great throws too. They are just too few and far between
