  1. God bless him, Fitterer lost every single trade he was involved in. There’s a good chance CMC goes on to win Super Bowl MVP. He’s already proven to be the best non-QB player in the league. You don’t trade that kind of talent without getting multiple firsts plus a proven player, and we didn’t get either. At the very least we could have made San Fran throw in Kittles for fugs sake.

    This “just hit you?”


    yeah, obviously could have had Stroud first

     

    When considering Dell I always associated with just swapping it with Mingo and keeping Bryce. Fitt is putting on a master class of how to make every wrong decision.

    So he led a receiver with a throw and the receiver ran under it, also something every NFL QB should be able to do. I really don't understand the desperation to turn this into something more than it is at this point, a chuck to a receiver that had a defender literally all over him that worked out because the CB didn't get his head around. If that ball is caught with Thielen not having to turn around then we have a discussion, but the play itself was very risky and not an impressive strength throw, which again was the whole premise of the first comment I responded to. 

    Bryce had another game showing improvement and made other throws and plays that were more impressive on a technical level, e.g the TD throw. Acting like this throw itself was anything more than NFL QB table stakes is just silly, and it's not an insult to Bryce to recognize that.


    The play would be a highlight for any QB in the league. Spinning out of a potential sack, rolling to his left, off balance with the flick of the wrist and dropping it perfectly on the sideline is something to be excited about, especially for a rookie that has struggled connecting on long throws.

    No, it's not. It's a lucky slop throw, just like the ones Russel Wilson used to get away with and no longer does, and you have now moved the argument from it being a display of superior arm strength, which it is not, to the play in general.

    I have nothing else to say here, so believe what you like. I'll agree with anyone that it's nice to see the positive trend these past weeks after the poor start.


    go watch the replays of the throw from multiple angles. Live, the throw looked like one of Wilson’s prayer balls where his WR bailed him out, which he built his entire career on. This was not one of those throws. Thielen had the defender beat, Bryce recognized it and dropped it perfectly over the defenders shoulder. Wilson would constantly throw moon balls, often times under-thrown into double coverage and his star WRs would make ridiculous catches, and everyone would praise Wilson. Again, this was not one of those throws lol. 

  5. This team has no on-field leaders. Shaq is the defacto leader of the team, the only guy from the glory days of 2015, and he’s out of course. No one else has a pedigree here with the capacity to lead the locker room. Burns is half checked out, the vets they signed in the off-season can’t wait to get out. 
     

    This roster/FO needs an enema.

  6. So with the Lions and Fins next, it’s likely this team is 0-6 going into the bye….then things get darkly funny.

    10/29 Texans at home

    11/5 Colts at home

    11/9 TNF at Bears 

     

    We all get to witness the two QBs the Panthers passed on probably kick our ass at home (with their teams fans outnumbering panthers fans) and then the team we traded up with on a short week on the road. You couldn’t script a more embarrassing three game stretch to lose for the FO and coaching staff. 
     

    Oh and after that it’s the cowboys, titans and NFCS teams. It’s gonna get a lot worse. Embrace the suck

  7. If Bryce had of been the only legit top ten prospect coming into the draft, things would seem better. But the reality is the two QBs that went in the next couple of picks after Bryce look more like number one picks and it’s not even close.

    Gambling that Young would be the second coming of Peyton manning because of his mental intangibles seems to be a losing bet four weeks into the season. 
     

    It’s the type of gamble that costs people’s jobs. Not to mention what the FO sacrificed to move up to select the losing bet. 
     

    The time for accountability is rapidly approaching.

    Where did you get Frank had to be convinced. Jury is still out on Bryce. I thought he played well despite the limitations placed around him. 

    The behind the scenes stuff leading up to the draft showed Fitt telling Reich he and the scouts had settled on Bryce as the top pick, but he would let Reich come to his own conclusion so it was collaborative. 
     

    When your bosses are telling you they basically want you to come to a certain conclusion, it’s easy to do.

    I agree the jury is still out on Bryce, not saying he’s a bust or won’t have a successful career. But after a four week sample size it’s clear Stroud and Richardson are more pro-ready than Bryce, even taking into consideration their situations.

     

    Fwiw I was sold on Bryce as well, and still think he can be the Panthers future. It’s just really hard to see Stroud and AR look like beasts while the Panthers have the worst offense in the league.

  9. We really traded the best running back in football for several non-first round picks because an algorithm said it equals a first round pick. 
     

    while simultaneously turning down MULTIPLE first round picks for a dude in Burns that spends most games not even being mentioned. What a time to be alive
