    I think Bryce is over processing and not relying on instincts at all. which is why he is holding on to the ball so long.  Hes doubting himself, his skill, everything.  This is the epitome of being shell shocked as an NFL QB.  He has to get out of his own head and just play football.

    You nailed it, he's playing without confidence

    Panthers get humiliated in season opener. And I’m not sure Bryce Young will ever work out.

    BY SCOTT FOWLER

    [email protected]

    ‘On Bryce Young’s very first pass of the 2024 season, he threw an interception.

    In the second half, Young improved. 

    It took him until his second pass to throw an interception.

    After a full offseason, with a vibrant young play caller installed as his head coach and several additional offensive weapons to work with, Young looked exactly the same in the beginning of his second season as he did at the end of his first.

    Overwhelmed. Undersized. Out of his element.’

    But at the forefront of all this pain inflicted on another black-and-blue Sunday for Carolina was Young, the former Heisman Trophy winner at Alabama who plays the game’s most important position. And although I’m trying to give him the benefit of the doubt, I just don’t know if it’s ever going to work out for him in Charlotte. 

    The Panthers will give it every chance, of course, because they’ve invested the No. 1 selection of the 2023 NFL Draft and so much else in Young. They have earmarked him as the guy from the very first game of his NFL career, making him the starter and a team captain and entrusting much of their future to him. And he’s only 23. There’s that. And he looked good in training camp and in his one drive of the preseason. There’s that, too.
     

    But wishing Young was the guy and him actually turning into the guy are two very different things.

    I’d love to be proven wrong, because it’s not a lot of fun to cover a losing team every single year. But all we saw Sunday was the Panthers threatening numerous team records for futility with this 37-point opening-day loss, which not only took the bloom off the rose, but also took the rose itself and threw it into a wood chipper.

    The quarterback numbers: Young was 13 for 30 for 161 yards, with no touchdown passes and two interceptions. He was sacked four times. His QB rating was 32.8.

    The entire game was comical. It was infuriating. It was both believable and unbelievable — believable that the Panthers would lose again, because they went an NFL-worst 2-15 a year ago and haven’t made the playoffs since 2017. This was the 100th game of David Tepper’s tenure as the owner of the Panthers, and the team is 32-68 and has never had a winning record since the billionaire bought it. 

    But it was also unbelievable that the Panthers would be down 30-0 in the second quarter to a Saints team that is, most likely, mediocre.

    HE ENDS WITH THIS 

    And it was Young who owned it afterward. 

    “Any time that the ball is in peril, and obviously it’s a turnover, that’s on me,” Young said. The quarterback took full responsibility for both his interceptions, which is what Young always does, because he’s a very nice young man and I’ve never heard anyone say a bad word about his conduct off the field.

    But on the field? 

    Man, he just doesn’t make enough plays. 

    Young hesitated when guys were open Sunday or threw it to them when they weren’t. He got aggressive when he should have been careful and got careful when he should have been aggressive. Even his one touchdown — his first NFL rushing touchdown in his career — almost got negated, as Young crossed the goal line and fumbled almost simultaneously on a fourth-down scramble. Fortunately, Young broke the plane just before getting the ball knocked out.

    Bryce dropback and footwork

    in Carolina Panthers

    Posted

    There was a point the 2nd half where Bryce dropped back to pass and was so slow and methodical in doing so I honestly thought the refs had blown the play dead for a penalty

    his mechanics are a mess it almost seems like he doesn’t trusts what he sees he hesitates and by then the original play design is ruined  

    I will pull for any player that wears the Panthers uniform but Bryce doesn’t look like an NFL QB he seems to be missing that confidence in himself
