Bryce Young won't play in preseason opener
MechaZain replied to Carolina Panthers's topic in Carolina Panthers
have a bad feeling that this is more of an indictment on the offensive line than anything -
Ian Rapoport on Bryce: "Everyone had Bryce Young #1"
MechaZain replied to Icege's topic in Carolina Panthers
I'm holding out hope that it was some combination of our OL and coaching because Reich didn't even try to play him that way. He was sold as this Russell Wilson type but they had him just standing in the pocket throwing dinks all season (the thing Wilson's worst at, whaddyaknow...) -
Ian Rapoport on Bryce: "Everyone had Bryce Young #1"
MechaZain replied to Icege's topic in Carolina Panthers
It's funny looking back because I remember the Levis rumors before the trade and we all hated it. He was probably the guy had we stayed put. i have no problem with the move up. There was a strong chance the top QBs would all be gone and I don't think we could afford to just sit and pray. -
He was high on DJ but they didn't work closely together. There's that clip from All or Nothing where you can see their personalities clash. Smitty is trying to light a fire under him but DJ's laid back, doesn't really respond to his buttons getting pushed. Similar players completely different personalities. It sounds like Mingo's going out of his way to do extra work with Smith so I'm optimistic. I like seeing players emotionally invested in being great. There's been a severe lack of hunger on the team since Cam left.

Rhule is just not cut out for pro football. He tried to run this team like a college program. Over reliant on stars instead of designing systems that his team could consistently reproduce. His coaching went as far as the scouting process and everything after that was him spinning numbers to justify not having any gameplan week-to-week beside riding his favorites. You can get away with that in college where most of it comes down to who recruited the best roster and superstars can carry you through a season on talent alone. The NFL requires actual tactics and roster development for success. The players saw through him but Tepper, like a fresh recruit entering college, had no foundation for what real coaching looks like so Rhule scammed him out of $60 mil by pandering to his trust in analytics. The same misguided trust that probably closed the door on drafting Stroud here because he didn't score well on a test.

Bryce Young can have a breakout season in 2024

Show me anything that links performance to height I’m begging you -

MechaZain replied to Verge's topic in Carolina Panthers
Really wish y'all would get over the dude's height already. There's no stat that shows a correlation between height and performance for QBs. There's plenty else we can criticize Young for without constantly harping on him being short. Cam set unrealistic expectations for this fanbase. -

MechaZain replied to Verge's topic in Carolina Panthers
Only thing I can give Bryce is he stayed composed through it all which alone is pretty exceptional for a Panthers QB. Nothing else I saw from him was. I'll give him a pass because he was rookie in a clown show, but I expect Canales to set him up for success. I'm optimistic that we'll get a clear look at him this season either way. -
Collegiate bro he won the heisman and national championship

below average student athlete versus the top player in college football but sure

Cam’s mad he couldn't reenact Wedding Crashers with Greg it’s probably for the best.

Is Charlotte the worst sports city right now?
MechaZain replied to hepcat's topic in Carolina Panthers
I'd feel so bad for Raleigh. It just doesn't make sense in Charlotte. Too close to the Braves and you won't get a better location than the Knights have already. Even Greensboro I think is a better option. -
The Carolina Panthers are hurtling towards threats of relocation
MechaZain replied to hepcat's topic in Carolina Panthers
Yeah I don't know why anyone takes this seriously. Can you imagine how much he saves having both teams share a stadium? The cost of relocating the Panthers would be over $650m and untold millions over the long run. They're going to give it to him but the city should be playing hardball on this. -
she's fine as hell in every commercial

Obviously his health was the reason but the state of the team definitely helped. Luke doesn't strike me as someone who cares about individual accomplishments much at all. He loved the game and he wanted to win with the Panthers. He wouldn't risk his life to go chase a ring elsewhere. It was difficult for him to step away from a team that was bad, if the Panthers were serious contenders I really think he would have tried to see it through. Everything worked out the way that it was meant to in the end. It was sad seeing his career cut short but if he had a suffered a serious injury from football I can't even imagine. EDIT: To be clear I don't think the medical staff was part of his decision at all. It just helped that the team was far from winning a SB when he bowed out.

Hard to beat the worst NBA season of all-time in 2012 -
His juke was ridiculous his first two years I pissed a lot of people off online

Stroud was salty panthers didn't draft him
MechaZain replied to CPF4LIFE's topic in Carolina Panthers
I think this he was more burnt by "Mama Tepper" than about not being picked first if they got as close as claimed. Imagine developing a personal connection with a team's owner and still getting passed over for your buddy the little goldenchild. The ironic conclusion to this photo
