Good players sometimes committ not so smart plays. 

Yep. And really good players can have really bad games.

Our dumbassery gave them the game.  We did not lost to Seattle--we lost to Carolina

To a degree. Their d line manhandled our oline. Not sure we'd beat them once in five attempts 

BY playing scared today. Pure and simple. Simple and Plain.

Horn isn't all of a sudden a bad player because of a few plays in one game. Still easily our best cover CB.

Just push him out of bounds. Geez Jaycee!

You have got to be frigging kidding me !!

Wow. Didn't know you were allowed to catch a pass thrown behind you

3rd and 2 and we have over half our defenders back 5 yards? Nice. Like...really nice.

I don't get it. Just weird. Do you expect them to throw a deep pass every time?

We can not cover TEs. 

Welp

Dowdle is the hot hand today. Stick with him. Young needs to stop playing scared. F it bro, just let it rip!

3rd and goal from the 2 yard line. No Derrick Brown in the game. Moehrig on the LOS. LBs 5 yards deep in the end zone. Yeah we were daring them to run right up the middle.

We suck at tackling 

And Seattle doesn't miss tackles at all. They're all solid tacklers.

Defense came to play. This is playoff level defense... so far.

Well dam...

Corbett is getting absolutely WORKED. 

So is Damien Lewis and Moton.

There is no way in hell any former overall #1 NFL QB would be okay with a coach electing to not chuck that bitch downfield aggressively at HOME an entire half, with a playoff spot on the line. He would DEMAND or TAKE the helm. This ineptitude is on BY9s shoulders.

Pretty sure they took at least 2 shots downfield. I think it was 3 though. One was a DPI to Coker. The other was to TMac. If he turns his head and finds the ball that's a TD.

Which team makes the right halftime adjustments? Come on coaches. Let's go!

Highest paid oline in the NFL, huh?

And imo that’s why we saw Bryce revert back to bad Bryce to start 2025

He ended 2024 looking really good BUT then to start 2025 he had a whole new WR group

TMac (rookie), Tremayne, Renfrow saw a lot of snaps 

Legette is Legette. Even David Moore getting hurt honestly hurt Bryce

So it took awhile for BY and TMac to build chemistry and then Coker coming back has made a huge difference as well

Said it before the first game, when we learned of Coker's injury. 

The QBs will be playing with a group of receivers where they've only completed a pass to one of them ever - Legette. That is not a good place to be, especially when the other receivers included two rookies, Tremayne and Renfrow who hasn't played football in 2 years. Throw in a second year TE and a rookie TE. I mean I love Tremble, but if he's your vet receiving TE you're not in a very good place.

Folks around here treat Bryce Young like he is their child on a travel ball team.  And he got the loud parents and is the kid that everyone else knows really doesn’t belong. 

no one is “sick” because it’s pointed out, it’s a red flag that 3 years and in our low ceiling QB is still being with a 2nd round rookie on a bad team.  

this is the freaking NFL.  No one is clutching their pearls as XL is poo on every day.  Or Evero.  Or Tepper.  Or any other player.

So because people cheer on their starting QB, you think it's your responsibility to bring them back to earth? I mean it is a Panthers fan forum. But if that works for you...

He can’t. Just because he’s playing better doesn’t mean his arm magically got stronger. You’ll never see a Hail Mary from past the 50 because it wouldn’t make it to the end zone. It is possible to be objective. 

How many passes have you seen that were not completed due to a lack of arm strength? I mean I get he doesn't have the strongest arm in the league, but this narrative that he can't throw the ball 50 yards is ridiculous. Now can he throw it 40 yards on a rope with a defender at his feet? I seriously doubt it. But those QBs are a rarity. Not the norm.

I agree here . I would give Horn more opportunities and limit Legette's routes and number of plays on the field .   I would give him one more year to get it together .  Give him a few screens and let him run in the open field .  We invested too much in him to cut him this soon .

I guarantee Horn would have more receptions, receiving yards, YAC, rushing yards and game impact if he had XL's reps and opportunities. He's just a better player at the position. Not a better athlete or prospect, but a better player. I could see him being a Josh Downs type of player. XL is a Mingo type of player.

After getting burned on Brooks can you blame them?

Pretty sure they were in the same draft class. 

Yeah... and there'll be another one once Jimmy Horn starts taking XL's reps.
