Bryce Young is not an accurate passer. Thats not an opinion. I only care about deep ball passer if the Panthers run a scheme and O when it matters. And it matters in the Canales tree. Been talking about fit since the day he was drafted. He didn’t fit Frank. He doesn’t fit Canales.

Yeah, proposing such a trade or it happening isn’t what that convo was about. He asked a question with a super easy answer. What would you prefer as a franchise. The question was answered. I realize Bryce Young competed 11 passes for 100 yards at a 50 something clip. Bryce doesn’t suck because I say so. He tells you. Our coaches tell you. And the standard we judge the play of the 31 other teams tells you. PJ Walker was 4-3 as a starter. By Bryce Young logic he was Tom Brady.

Geno fits Canales and fits the O. It’s why Geno worked in Seattle and not Oakland. He is a deep ball passer. NFL is about fit. Geno would beat Bryce out in 2 weeks in a real camp battle. Which ain’t Geno praise. It’s just recognition Geno is a round peg and that is what we are lacking

I understood. Again, give me Joe Burrow all day, every day and twice on Sunday over Bryce Young. Because when Burrow is ready to roll they are worlds apart. Joe Burrow elevates everyone around him and is a legit stud QB. Bryce Young ain’t winning games. Rico Dowdle and the Panthers have won multiple games in sort of anomaly fashion repeatedly in spite of having a backup caliber QB. In no scenario would I pick a backup caliber QB over Joe Burrow. I can just play a backup when Joe can’t go Burrow had lead the NFL in comp%, yards and passing TDs. A multi Pro Bowler. A postseason QB. An MVP candidate multiple seasons. No way in hell am I picking the Bryce Young Panthers era over that if given the choice of the two. this Bryce schtick is sad and whack. And a healthy % of the Bryce “hate” is just pushback on absurdity

Wind is a seperate issue. it was the exact same route, throw, player and area as the other TD. Mirror image. They tried it again. and my comment isn’t even knocking Bryce. It’s Dave. Seems like a bad idea given the ask of XL. He has to beat his man so badly that he can cut around him/behind him. Or it’s them thinking they can fool the DB into a corner fade when it isn’t one. But why attempt that twice in the exact same spot with everything the same.

Name of the game in Carolina to win is to minimize Bryce Young. See our wins. All of them. They tell a story.

Carolina being forced to actually let Bryce throw sometime doesn’t mean he isn’t horrible. again, PJ Walker had a winning record in Carolina and a better highlight tape. PJ sucks. Bryce Young is a bad NFL starting QB. The Carolina coaching staff basically is screaming it at the Bryce defenders. We play the game how we have to because of Bryce

As Micah Parsons said when questioned on why they didn’t take it to Bryce….Bryce Young had like 2 actual drop backs the entire game for a measly 100 yards. Which isn’t how you win the in the NFL. and Rico got them on the brink of FG position with that big run and Bryce wasn’t allowed to touch the ball after that. I mean, Bryce is treated like a backup QB. Simple as that. Pretty tough to argue that he isn’t at this point.

Not playing devils advocate. The staff clearly has recognized you have to take Bryce out of it and Rico is our best chance to win. That play illustrates it. and all that window dressing most likely was not a Bryce Young original. But the thought process of a staff that knew Rico had to get the ball. it’s the never ending search of trying to make Bryce look good.

I hate to break it to you…..but in the year 2025….the Panthers pass attack isn’t much more threatening or productive than Bryce’s rookie season. yeah, give me Joe Burrow 8 days a week lol it is a team sport. And you are highlighting the inverse. Naming non-weak links. Bryce is the weak link in Carolina and this season is probably the best evidence of it to date

I mean, most likely this 78th degree chess move…..was the coaches/playcall. Not some Bryce Young experiment. coaches knew they wanted Rico and not Bryce to have the ball in their hands. So they went to great efforts to disguise it

Bryce has flat out and consistently been one of the worst if not the worst starting QB in the NFL over the last 3 years. Anyone worse hasn’t played all 3 seasons. We are having to play painfully archaic and safe football given he is our QB. It’s winning in spite of him being the QB almost every time we find a win that’s just reality. and Bryce is statistically, pretty much unchanged. And our wins are all on the back of Rico…..minus the Penix implosion. And Bryce did nothing that Atl game either

That pass to XL was just trying to repeat the last TD to XL. Which really didn’t make sense even when it worked. Basically expecting XL to beat his man so badly that he can cross behind him??? Which is what happened when it worked. We got lucky when it worked IMO. Hate the design and ask of that playcall.

Depends on the definition of it working. Goff works. The Schuabs and Hasselbecks worked and that’s without getting into the Montanas. Also, Bryce is no Alex Smith. He went 6 straight years in KC with a winning record as a starter. There is no Bryce comp. Everyone as unproductive as Bryce has disappeared

I mean, if we played them 5 times.....they probably largely would beat us by double digits majority of the time. I think if we played the Packers again this week it would be about the same spread. I mean, as soon as we can't run the ball and have to be balanced or pass heavy in a game......it's Nightmare on Elm Street.

I think from a bad juju stand point they shouldn't return this season. But outside of that, they should return when they want. Not sure why the players don't want them to return. If it's anything other than superstition this season...then fug them for that. That unknown podcast was right when they went about what they did.

our gameplan to win and coaching is literally all designed around the fact Bryce Young isn't a good NFL QB. PJ Walker has a winning record as a starter in Carolina. That never made PJ Walker a good QB.

wut? Riding Rico is literally the only way we can win football games. And you want to not do that in a winnable game? we have seen w/ Hubbard that it takes more than our gameplan to win a game.....we need the opponent to have painfully horrific offense in addition to that. You play to win the game. You ride Rico until he can't ride.

Team A - 187 pass yards per game, yards/attempt 6.2. Team B -170 pass yards per game, yards/attempt 6.0 - bolded is the 2025 Carolina Panthers Team C - 161 pass yards per game, yards/attempt 5.5 Carolina has made HUGE strides this year defensively and with their rush attack. But the problem is the problem. It's actually insane exactly how productive Rico Dowdle has been in the NFL this season (even more so insane given teams just play the run). 3 starts and is the 3rd leading rusher in the NFL at the half way mark. Insanity. Everything in Carolina is trending up. But one aspect of the team.

The formula for us to to win games is just so microscopic. We have overachieved. We are basically the Steve Wilks Panthers. The fact we don’t have a QB is going even out down the stretch. It’s hard to watch us and say it’s a good football team

Hater implies improper bias. Which isn’t the case with those critical of Bryce. They should just be called the ones who are right about Bryce.

We lose when Rico isn’t the offense and the QB isn’t largely a spectator. Simple as that. Dalton and Bryce are no different in reality

Only because early that ball went through a defenders hands and into TMacs. That route got jumped. That really should have been a INT or at worst incomplete. Stat sheet will show it as one of his best throws though

refs gave them a 5th down to do it

Trade him and he is still probably a top 10 cap hit for us next year then you got the issue of Rico looking good….and having lots of options elsewhere after this year. then your RB room is Etienne. I don’t even count Brooks at this point given the back to back ACLs
