Who is going to give him a larger retirement package than we gave Reich? Just retire and stop mailing it in. Then he would have plenty of time to look like his girlfriend's dad cheering her on in her adult cheer leauge.

We got pretty lucky being the sandwich game between the Seahawks games against the Rams and 49ers. Sucks that we are playing back-to-back teams that get extra rest from playing on Thursday, but I think the Seahawks will be looking ahead to San Fran when they play us. I doubt we win, but a 1:00 pm game on the east coast for a west coast team that will be looking ahead to week 18 sets up pretty well for us

Seahawks were one of the best places Darnold could go - they have elite pass blocking tackles and their oline overall is very good at preventing pressure. Darnold was very good for Minnesota last year until Darrisaw got hurt - then it all fell apart for Darnold

It was halfway believable until that last sentence.

He wanted total control of the team and the Falcons were not willing to do that. I cannot imagine any team will, but there is always someone desperate. I still think his mentor was a better coach.

Every Heels fan is begging for it.

And how’s that highest paid OL holding up in pass protection? Not good I’m not going over the investments with you your logic is so flawed. But you just repeat the same crap every post. Investments don’t equal production. Tough to have these conversations when half this board doesn’t understand half this crap

UNC was so stupid to hire this egomaniac.

We take the win.

This season only ends one way... We win this Sunday. Bryce is decent. We take back 1st place... Only to then get our brakes blown off in the last two weeks.

Here's one of the most maddening things, that will be shown in full light over the next three weeks. The same people around here that called Darnold a bum and Mayfield a washed up over draft are also the ones saying Bryce is a catastrophe. Yeah, and I've been one who said Bryce wasn't big enough, brave enough or capable enough. I said back in the day that Darnold had a lot of fight in him and got shouted down. And on Mayfield, heck I didn't know, I just knew we had a very, very bad team that was run terribly. But I saw both of those guys go out there and resurrect their careers and be play-off bound since shaking the Carolina clay dust off their cleats. And we sat there and cat called their cars as they pulled out of the parking lot, laughing at what nobodies they were. Over the next three weeks, those two guys may just serve us sh!t sandwiches and then settle down to their just desserts. And then we'll probably let Bryce go off into the realm of other teams. And when that happens, will we see him coming back, better than before and we're left to re-sit this cycle all over again? Same naysayers, same results, same revolving carousel of ponies and pundits? Will we end up looking like the Temu version of the San Diego Chargers back in the day watching Drew Brees come to fruition in the previously moribund Superdome while we whiff on a Manning pick just to be jilted for Phillip "Always a Bridesmaid" Rivers?

Panthers season is done. Just you wait until next year! Dowdle will be gone. We will have a new 1st round threat at wr. We will have found a mid-round linebacker that has flashed during preseason. We will be patting ourselves on the back for finding some cheapo players on other teams' scrap heaps. And Young will be under a multi-year extension earning the big bucks for being a franchise qb.

Supposedly he was going to be the coach in Atlanta, up until he wasn't. I don't mind if they hire him this go around. He will not be successful there.

Let’s get it to 6 in a row!

Bryce had his best statistical game ever this season against the Falcons but aside from that he has been either hot lukewarm or ice cold. And sandwiched in between the games he's won have been games like the 49ers loss and getting swept by the Saints with the division and the playoffs on the line. Only to some Panthers fans could that be considered "trending up" because we have lowered the bar so much for our third year #1 overall pick. I've legitimately never seen anything like it. Bryce Young is number 5 on the list of games played by Panthers QB's in franchise history with 43 games which is 2 games shy of tying Kerry Collins for number of games played as a Panther. And he has a 13-28 record. Yet he's "trending up". GTFO 🫵

I have said if you out even an average QB into the offense we are averaging 25+ points a game. But that will never happen with Bryce under center.

The defense is 28 out of 32 in salary cap allocation for 2025. We have a ton of resources tied up in the offense including the highest paid OL in the league multiple 1st round WR's and multiple recent draft picks across the offense at TE and RB and we have two 1000 yard backs. Bryce and company couldn't get past Tyler Shough and his crew in 2 games. That's all there is to it. You can spin it and put the entire onus on the defense to your heart's desire it doesn't change the fact that this is an OFFENSIVE team now. If you want to argue that we should revert back to a defensive identity as we have been in the past which has brought us success then I will agree with you on that. But as it stands the onus is on the offense because that is where we have invested through the nose. Dave Canales and Bryce Young need to do a hell of a lot better than they have against the rebuilding Saints who without us should only have 2 wins this season.

Bryce is not trending up. He is the same QB he has always been. Bottom of the league in most categories. If Canales thinks he can build a contender with Bryce then he is a bigger idiot then I thought. Offense next year will have the same issues and be just as inconsistent as it was this year. We have seen Bryce’a ceiling and it is 175 yards a game and that is not a QB you keep around as your starter. That is barely a backup.

Looks like Darnold should have had at least 3 picks. That'll get ugly in the playoffs eventually. Can't deny his physical talent though. You either have that or you don't. Mike Macdonald is a legit coach.

Seahawks ran a short yardsge sneak similar to what the Steelers did the other night. Darnold just standing 3 yards behind the formation.

Collective effort Bucs have a top 10 run D so they should be able to focus in on and contain the run. BY will have about 170 passing yards. D will spend too much time on the field. While Baker’s arm is in doubt, I think he makes enough plays over the middle and still gets one late over the top on us for a really big one to Evans as we get sort of fooled he is conserving his arm I think it will be a pretty ugly offensive game for big chunks but the Bucs pull away late.

I’ve seen a few people mention the fact NO only had 10 points going into the 4th as some sort of victory by the defense. I assume you’re box score watching? The Saints had 4 real possessions going into the 4th quarter. One was the 11:22 minute TD drive and the other a 7:58 FG drive According to nextgenstats there are normally 24 possessions in a game. There were 16 in Sundays game and that’s including a one play kneel down “possession” at the end of the first half and the final 1 play “possession” at the end of the game For comparison, there were 11 possessions in last nights Seahawks Rams game in the 4th quarter alone

Evero

They are 1 and 9 against the Bucs in the past 10 games. the Panthers go as young goes. QB1 ‘s are suppose to dictate and overcome and elevate Everything the QB does affects every part of the team and Bryce is uneven. Canales and Bryce have an uneven relationship too as for Evero, the only thing that might save him is the injury to Baker’s left shoulder and oline injuries. I don’t even know how he is out there I really feel their season ended last Sunday Canales’ division record isn’t great Getting owned by the Saints and Bucs isn’t a good look
