Bagent also got 31 carries for 121 yards and a TD from his run game. Young got 13 carries for 25 yards from his. A good run game helps a QB. Despite all that, their performances were equal. So no, he only thoroughly outplayed him in your mind. Because 2 weeks ago, you didn’t say Young thoroughly outplayed Stroud when statistics and the things that don’t show up in the box score proved it.

Bryce proved he can complete a deep ball in stride

Confirmation bias

I mean, "touted" by pundits who get paid to guess. The 2015 Panthers were touted by Sports Illustrated as the worst team in the NFC South. It's never gonna get better until you add talent, competent coaching (not coaching PR), and get Tepper out of the picture.

Rhule had better players. He was just a different breed of the same suck.

I didn't expect Frank Reich to be sub-2001 Seifert in planning and leadership, but here we are.

Their numbers were identical, idk about "thoroughly outplayed" lol

Believe the 40-yard completion to Mingo against Houston was in stride as he broke in his route

The offensive line is at the center of the factors costing the offense, with the QB, WRs and coaching staff also at fault. The definition of "objectivity" is not "single out one problem and conveniently ignore the rest," and it will never be the definition -- not even after you say someone is having a meltdown or after you condescendingly ask if they're gonna be OK.

There's Step 5, right on cue.

1) make outlandish claim 2) outlandish claim is easily debunked 3) move the goalposts 4) accuse people of coping, caping and being weird 5) condescendingly ask people if they're gonna be OK 6) repeat for months on end

Imagine caping for someone who said Bryce's stats are eerily similar to Clausen's, then calling out someone else

When you do it, it's logical, but when anyone else does it, it's cherry picking. Sure.

Nah, this is a journalism job first and foremost. Their social dept is separate

Someone will compare Bryce to Dameyune Craig and Burns to Al Wallace

We had one dude say he was worse than Jeff Lewis, whose 50% completion percentage and 0 TD passes as a Panther must also be eerily similar to Bryce. They're just googling old names at this point, looking for a comparison. Thursday night they'll either spend all night bringing up Jack Trudeau and Randy Fasani, or we won't see them for 10 days.

You keep trying to make this true, and it’s not. They have one statistic that’s remotely similar. Young threw as many TD passes vs Detroit as Clausen threw in 2010. Young threw for more yardage in his third game than Clausen ever did. Young’s not been great by any measure but your hyperbole says a lot more about you than it does anyone else.

Yeah Bryce ain’t Clausen. One similar stat is what people typically refer to as “cherry picking” if it doesn’t suit their narrative. He sucked out loud Sunday though. But there’s no way around the fact he was also better than Stroud the week before. The reactionary crowd who goes from “0-17” to “we’re going 6-6” to “Bryce is the worst QB who ever lived” keep me on here. It’s entertaining. More so than the games, really. I Ekwonu all of them so I can still read their drivel (Ekwonu = refusal to block)

I like Barno but that means he’ll embarrass himself

He’s already had one?

Define "long".

It's been pretty well-documented (aside from my own personal experiences) that Panther fans are some of the worst in all of professional sports. Some of it comes from expecting the pro teams to be as good as Duke or Carolina basketball every year. And not like Matt Doherty Carolina basketball, but that's no excuse. Fans are pretty toxic at the games.
