Sounds like a young man with more millions in the bank than he can spend who has had to go through some very long recoveries from injuries and just wondering if its worth going through it all again. Hard not to tell him to go and enjoy his life. His "kid have a cigar moment" just turned into "welcome to the machine."

Kannapolis is actually pretty cool now.

We need to be aggressive and hit big plays early to back the safeties up. Then run Rico and Chuba. I don’t expect another bad luck game from Horn either. If the team comes out determined I think we’ll win handily.

You haven't missed a thing my friend.

Damn, is it really that big of a disaster to lose to Ohio State? j/k

Never been frightened by a snack food before

I really think Bryce has been given so much time due to what they've put around him. In a vacuum, he hasn't been good enough. But I think we tend to be overly judgemental with him because he's our QB. Every fan base does it. You see every mistake, not just the highlights/lowlights. I've listened to Cowboys fans crap on Dak and Ravens fans crap on Lamar. How many WRs from Bryce's rookie season are still making plays today? Probably a few starting olinemen from that year are out of the league too. Hell even his HC is out of the NFL and his OC is a TE coach right now. How many WRs from last season, Bryce's second year (other than the rookies) are making plays in the NFL today? And now in his third year, he's been passing to rookies and second year players. And the only one that was highly touted was TMac. Heck Coker wasn't even drafted, and he's easily been the second best receiver on the team. And let's not even get started on how bad the defense has been. When a team is constantly playing from behind, and/or being ran off the field (time of possession), it greatly impacts the offense's chemistry and playcalling. Look at the young QBs that are playing well right now. All of those teams have great defenses. Houston, Denver, Patriots, Cleveland, even the Saints defense has been on a bit of a tear recently. I agree he needs to be more consistent. But to be fair, so does his supporting cast. He had some horrible fumbles early in the season. I beat him up over that just like everyone else. But we wouldn't have said that if it was Stafford. We would have rightly blamed it on the oline for allowing jail breaks when they weren't even outnumbered on blitzes, and to top it off he was throwing to a bunch of young receivers. He killed teams for blitzing him the end of last season. I don't think he forgot what to do. I think his receivers didn't know what to do. They were all young and new, other than XL, and DCs exploited that. The team is developing right now. And amazingly Bryce is playing better. Funny how that works. Let's just enjoy the ride and see where it takes us. Getting there is half the fun, and the team is actually ahead of schedule.

Never been to Kannapolis

well, the Colts are winning. Heck, they are surprising or were. My guess that has a lot to do w/ something not okay being totally okay for the moment. And the PR machine likely is running really hard for her at the moment. It's weird stuff. I mean, she was in the HC hip pocket working Rivers on the practice field. Really weird. I still would be willing to play the odds when things go south.....we find out there is more than one bonkers person in the Isray family tree.

I saw her on the sidelines with the headset on and thought, "Man, that's going to be a mess." Read an article about it, and by all accounts, she is well liked, and not meddling as much as trying to learn the business. They say she sits in team meeting and never speaks or disrupts, and when she talks to players it's strictly "how's the family" type stuff and not football related. Her with the headset is a bad optic, and who knows how she will act in the future, but so far, she seems way more stable than her old man.

We all thought the trade up to #1 overall was a historic haul. Wait till what Tepper decides to pay him lol.

Tepper got nothing on the old Colts owner or the new one. Not only is she in a full head set on the sidelines every game with the coaching staff. You got her at the practice w/ the HC working on Rivers lol. I don't know when it is going to happen but something crazy is going to go down in Indy sometime in the near future IMO. I mean, wait til the Colts hit a rough spot.

While we are winning. How will he be when we are 2-15?

if anything occurs we/someone doesn't like it's all David Tepper's doing. If something good happens, Tepper was hands off. That's seems to be the general logic applied w/ Dave for some time. I think Tepper is probably an average owner in terms of involvement. I think he just really botched the big hires and the big hires did a bad job personally.

He and canales need to break that trend time to adjust and go forward I dont have faith about this game. I want to but…. ‘deer in the headlights Bryce’ or ‘sleep walking Bryce’ cant show up Sunday i dont know, with loaded box, if he cant see over the line, cant process what he sees, he panics, or the hot read isnt there but Canales needs to find a max protect and an outlet for the little fella

Svech

if this season has taught us anything..... the Seattle game might be the one we are most likely to win. Saints the hardest. Darnold still has those disaster games in him and might gift us.

Bryce plays his best football vs Atlanta and his worst vs the Saints. And it's not just in the dome, he has been bad in every single Saints game. two completely polar opposite trends and both represent the extreme ends of the Bryce spectrum.

I Sunday 1pm. Let's go.

IMO Crux Good Bryce. Bad Bryce and unfortunately, how Young goes is how the Panthers go Big boy pants time for both Young and Canales To me, the Saints have laughed at Young and the organization which selected him in the field the past 3 years It will be interesting to see what the Panthers put on the field Sunday bolded a fee comments Heavy boxes is key article For Panthers QB Bryce Young, Superdome has been a personal house of horrors Scott Fowler [email protected] 4 hrs ago As all Carolina Panther fans know, there are “Good Bryce” and “Bad Bryce” days. When you get one of Bryce Young’s good Sundays — and those have been popping up more often in 2025 — you’ve got a great shot to win. But when you get a “Bad Bryce” day, there’s not much of a chance. And there’s nowhere that Young — the third-year quarterback for a 7-6 Carolina Panthers team that is surprisingly tied for first in the NFC South — has played worse than in road games at New Orleans. Young’s record in the Caesars Superdome as a starter is 0-2 heading into Sunday’s critical game at New Orleans (4:25 p.m. kickoff). Not only that, he and his offensive teammates have played terribly in both of those previous games, losing them by an average of nearly 30 points. In the NFL, the Superdome has been a personal house of horrors for Young. His stats in those two games bear looking at, as painful as they may be. 2023 (28-6 loss): 13-for-36, 137 yards, 0 TDs, 0 Ints 2024 (47-10 loss): 13-for-30, 161 yards, 0 TDs, 2 Ints Nasty, right? And we’re not even factoring in Young and the offense’s most recent dud against New Orleans — a 17-7 loss at home on Nov. 9. The point this week, of course, is to win at New Orleans (3-10). And the Panthers are taking a different and more weaponized offense to the Big Easy this week compared to what they did in Young’s first two seasons — this one includes wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan and running back Rico Dowdle. Young’s nature is to walk through his NFL career with blinders on — never looking back and never looking more than a week in front of him. He’s not nostalgic. The past is never prologue to him. So it’s not surprising that he answered my question about his previous lack of professional success in the Superdome like this: “We look forward…. I’m not a look-in-the-past type of person. It’s a new game. You can’t carry over the good or the bad.” Having covered about two dozen of the Panthers’ previous 30 games in New Orleans, I can say with some certainty that the Superdome is one of the more difficult places for a road team to win in the NFL. The building is ancient by NFL standards. The noise reverberates. Football is king. Even when the Saints are bad, the fans are passionate. It’s a great environment,” Young said. “Super-unique atmosphere. They have a great fan base. It’s fun to play in and be a part of that… and the challenges that brings, going into a hostile environment.” Young is more equipped to deal with that challenge this year than he has been before. As he noted in his press conference Wednesday, his “overall command” of the Dave Canales offense is greater. The communication errors are fewer. His mistakes are down. The Superdome noise should (you would think) affect him less this time around. And — if the Panthers can avoid getting way behind early — Young has been terrific in close games just about all season. In Carolina’s most recent game, Young led the Panthers back over and over, finally throwing a 43-yard touchdown pass to McMillan on fourth-and-2 in the fourth quarter for the deciding score in a 31-28 upset win over the L.A. Rams. Heavy boxes are often catnip for an elite quarterback, because that means there are eight defenders very close to the line of scrimmage and a whole lot of room behind them for deep balls. But the Panthers never could make that work. Young threw for a paltry 124 yards, a yardage total that was actually worse than in his two contests at New Orleans, as hard as that is to imagine. His 124-yard effort included a late interception that allowed the Saints to seal the game. This game will be the first time Young has played an NFL contest in December when the Panthers are still in the thick of a division race. “It’s a cool fact,” Young said. “But again we understand that in this league, we’re not entitled to anything.” If the Panthers are to win Sunday, though, they’re going to need more than a cameo appearance from “Good Bryce.” Carolina has a real opportunity to do something nice this December. To do so, Young has to be at the center of it, and “Bad Bryce” must be left outside the Superdome on Bourbon Street. He can watch the game from a sports bar or something. He just can’t show up.

Wouldn't that fall on Morgan and Tillis?

Crazy story

As flat as they came out after preseason and a single "victory Monday" I wouldn't be resting the starters either.

I don't know... How could you not enjoy the version of him that tosses beers on an opposing team's fans...
