Didn't Smitty buy him Dunkin donuts as an apology? Like sorry I cracked your eyesocket, have a bagel. What a douche.

Brindamour better regroup and figure out a new strategy. Canes were out muscled and out hustled all game.

We can't keep up with them. They play faster.

Supporting Bryce is based on continued growth, which he has shown. If he regresses to the state he was in last year in the first two games? Then it is time to move on. The issue is that he HAS shown growth and the haters are trying to assess him as the player prior to his ascension. And they seem to almost be rooting for his failure. It's sad.

Honestly, if he can't crack 3000 yards over 17 games, then yes.

Some of you Bryce haters can call yourself realists all you want to but even if he did put up those stats or better next year, you would all just say "well let's see if he can do it again, because a lot of quarterbacks have had one good season" or "not that he's good so much as he has so much talent around him". You wouldn't give him the credit he's due and it's exhausting

He was seated right next to Morgan, looked to be in the thick of things when picks were being made, and I even saw him dialing the number for at least one guy we were drafting. If this draft works out, we may have a new process of selecting players. Analytics like Eager's may change how scouting is done (or what is asked of scouts) in the future. Data processes the player, scouts may analyze the person.

Something tells me Kiper would willing gag on a certain Cleveland Browns rookie 5th rounder.

I actually completely understand this, sadly lol. I had the same reaction when we drafted Luke. I did so much research on him and wanted no one else in the 1st round. He was the guy. When Goodell read his name on the card, I lost it. I called my uncle (another diehard Panthers fan) and got lost in celebrating until I looked up and 10 picks had gone by.

I'll be honest, I thought I was going to have to jump ship after the first two games of last season. Which sucked because I don't usually get MASSIVE and UNSHAKEABLE conviction about a lot of guys in the draft, but Bryce was one that I did. The only other pick I wanted more than Bryce was Luke.

I'm not on the fence at all, but I think INDIVIDUAL stats that SHOULD silence the critics would be something like: 60+ completion % 3500 yards passing 25 TDs 10 Ints 150-200 yards rushing and 3 TDs

When Cam was quarterback and needed help after his first two years and we rarely brought him any: Can we get the man some receivers and some tackles?! He would kill it if he had help! When Bryce is quarterback, needs help, and we continually try to bring in help for him instead of drafting a replacement after year 2: Are we coddling him? Huddle gonna huddle.

One of the things that makes TMac an interesting big receiver prospect, is how low he can dip his hips in and out of breaks. This may not seem like a meaningful trait to most, but this is something that, physically, a lot of big guys cannot do well. This limits their flexibility, their ability to beat man to man, and the ability to make themselves skinny/small in run after the catch in traffic. This has been an asset to him, particularly on 3rd down and in the red zone. Both places this offense struggled receiver-wise. If you rewatch any videos of him, watch him on 3rd and in red zone. He seems to always get open and he never drops a ball. Other situations? Sure, he can use some development to create separation, but here? He's a weapon already.
