If Bryce is out I'll like to see what Dalton can do with this offense the last time he was called up he didnt have much to work with. A disgruntled Diontae Johnson and old man Theilen. We have the deepest receiver room we've had in a long time. Some good young TE's. And strong rushing attack with Rico (should be Rb1) and Chuba. Good offensive line depth. Say what you want when Dalton came in the passing game started pushing the ball down the field, not so much with Bryce. Young stats: 15-25 for 138 yards and his two longest pass plays went to Chuba for 26 yards and Rico for 17 yards. Dalton stats: 4-7 for 60 yards he eclipsed almost half of Youngs yardage in just 4 pass completions. We have outside weapons we need to be able to keep defenses honest in order to make this offense work.

I think this decision caused that game to be much closer than it should have. They essentially split carries and Roco had double the production, I think had those Chuba plays gone to Rico we would have had a much better run game and flow on offense. Thankfully the defense stepped up and saved a game the head coach and offense was trying to blow.

This coach with his stupid personnel decision completely messed up the momentum this offense had going on the last two weeks

On the flipside with him being hesitant to let it go, he gets sacked a ton, which is why the Jets have given up the most sacks on the season with 25. With our pass rush being invisible so far this may be the game they can show some life.

Yea he was setting the edge pretty good in the run defense

Ok the corner has been turned. My exile in the fandom wilderness is over, I'm back.

I'll never doubt my football acumen again. Pre draft I stated after warching film of all 3 Qb's CJ looked to be the better prospect. And then I took a hiatus from the board and came back just a few days before the draft and it was all Bryce, Bryce, he was the guaranteed lock to the the Panthers Qb all you heard was the inside sources, super processor blah, blah, blah. And I started doubting what I saw on film, and assuring myself because hey they are the "experts" maybe they're getting it right. They absolutely didn't get it right, and what I saw on film was the truth. Man I was hoping to be wrong, but nope at all.

Bryce hasnt exactly been airing it out.

Foreman as well.

They trade or don't want to pay productive players like Foreman, Hassan Reddick,... but then overpay guys like Miles Sanders, give up the mother load for Bryce Young and send another productive player DJ Moore away.

Can Sanders get benched already

Who's going to throw him the ball?

It's official Byrce a turnover machine. Which is crazy because he rarely pushes the ball down the field. It's official I don't like short Qbs anymore.

If that happens I know there must be some inside job to sabbatage the Panthers.

I remember reading a quote somewhere from Dan Morgan who said they would be more conservative going forward with dealing draft capital.

Houston moreso. They are team who were in need of a Qb who we were trying to leapfrog. We initially were trying to move up to 2nd pick, but the deals fell through so we just went straight for the gusto with Chicago and got hosed. And Houston ended up with the better Qb anyways.

If we had better qb play we beat Atlanta, Saints, Minnesota. Seattle possibly but the defense and Oline the bed

Well to be fair there hasn't been any creativity in the running game its straight up the middle into darkness. Chuba appears to have better vision and hitting the seems harder, but our schemes are lacking. This team was running down people's throat late last season after being pedestrian under Rhule and now it's back to worse than pedestrian, so that goes to coaching.

I think that trade was more if a solid to McCaffrey seeing as we weren't winning than to make the Panthers better. Plus we had our eyes on the Watson sweepstakes so I think they were trying to clear cap space in the hopes of being able to sign him to a long term deal.

Weak division is true. Atlanta right now is trying to scramble and see what they're going to do at Qb. Derek Carr is hurt and NO is on a 2 game skid. Ironically the Qb we ran out of town Baker Mayfield and the team left for dead after Brady departure the Bucs are leading the division again. Going into the season Bowles was supposedly on the hot seat.

The margin of talent in the NFL is so small that coaching matters even more. Every team has weaknesses and strengths, good coaching knows how to exploit the other teams flaws while limiting their own.

The Panthers right now...

Manning was 2nd in voting for Rookie of the year behind Randy Moss. Sure he threw alot of picks but he flashed just as much. Everybody knew the Colts had their franchise guy just had to build around him. I'm not sure what we have yet. But right now there's no comparison.

Exactly you don't win games talking football at dinner. You win it on the field, CJ passed the eye test for anyone not trying to outsmart themselves.

The shows the absurdity of mortgaging the future for one guy, Qb or not. You build your roster up and you will find your Qb. All that the 49ers gave up and their Qb is a 7th rd draft pick. The Panthers would be a much better position jad Dakyon started the season or they signed a vet like Derek Carr.
