Very balanced offense. DC can call a game. Our pass rush needs a lot of work.

I get that. I know Canales is not going into a post game presser and announce that he’s benching the QB. However, he needs to get better at coach speak, he should have gone with “we have to look at the tape” before going with “Bryce is our QB” just to bench him less than 24 hours after, because the optics made it looked like he needed to have a pow wow before making that decision. Just a bad look, imo.

Tar Heel QBs suck. Get a Wolfpack or even Duke QB before going this route.

I can explain the hate for you, hepcat. Bryce should have been benched after the first drive of the third quarter. The fact that he wasn't, combined with Dave C's weird "Bryce is our QB" quote after the game, then benching him the next day pretty much told us that at the very least, he needed Tepper's permission to bench Bryce, at worst, Tepper made our HC coach bench Bryce. Either scenario is not how an NFL team is supposed to function, so it means that Tepp has learned nothing after 6 years. Hence the hate.

Thanks to Bryce and Stroud, It’s now proven that I’m a better QB analyst than most professionals. Ewers ain’t it. Hard pass.

I didn’t want us to draft Bryce and I’m glad the experiment is over, but Jesus, some of you guys have too much hatred. You would think he sucked in college and his parents just bought him a NCAA championship and a Heisman. He’s not the first guy to be great in college and suck in the NFL. Unironically, if he really loves to play football, he needs to go the Doug Flutie route. Go kick some ass in Canada and give it another shot later as a backup

Maybe a decade ago he was the Red Rifle. He’s the Red Rocket now. Deal with it.

If that rule was enforceable, the NFL would never have allowed Matt Rhule a 3rd season.

Our front office might give up picks to trade down

You mean Nicole

Can we please stop using the “IT!” factor. That’s the only and entire reason Bryce is here.

Fields is the Steve Wilks of QBs. “If we had this guy we could be perpetually .500 again!”

Wilks Stans are almost as bad as Bryce Stans.

Maybe hire Matt Rhule’s wife for next GM? Her record is better than Nicole’s.

Reich was pretty well respected in the league and with garbage QB play in Indy amassed a better win % than Fox, Rivera, and coaching legend Steve Wilks. i think once he arrived in Charlotte he figured out that Isray was a well adjusted football genius compared to this clown show. That had to have been deflating.

I suppose it’s either a Tepper mandate or a tank commander situation

Clausen was a second rounder…and a little bit better

He opted to punt to Tom Brady with his career on the line. Yes .500 1980s football is better than what we have now, but that doesn't mean it's good.

Drafting a viable QB at #1 probably has a higher percentage of success than later rounds, provided it's not the owner's wife that makes the.. never mind. I see what you mean. Carry on.

Right, but shouldn't he have at least been working with a QB consultant like Cam did with Weinke to at least learn NLF QB footwork? Shouldn't he being trying to improve his mechanics so he can at least be more accurate at short range? Doesn't he at least owe the organization that is paying him millions to try to improve?

Jesus. I hope this team becomes competitive someday just so I can stop hearing from you dolts about training camp and preseason reps. Guess what?! If your QB and roster sucks, you’re gonna suck. Bryce had a season and two offseasons worth of reps.

We could have kept Darnold

Right there with you as far as not caring anymore. In regard to Tepper, start a thread and spill it. That’s what the internet is for.

Shaq's legacy was sealed his rookie season when he busted out, "F*ck the Seahawks" in an interview. He's a Panther through and through and for whatever reason has been loyal to this awful franchise. Anyone saying he's a JAG or average is either spoiled by our team having some all time great LBs or just not very smart. He's a solid, way better than average LB and will be remembered fondly because non-message board nerd fans could not care less about draft position or salaries.

This is the first year in 15 years that I haven’t watched one minute of preseason. I’m still going to watch every snap during the season (begrudgingly) I’d be lying if I said my interest hadn’t waned a little bit. The Super Bowl loss/2106 season/the loss of Cam/Luke/Olsen/revolving door of coaches and QBs…It can tear the ass out of your fandom after awhile.
