I’m not sold on Love at all. He’s barely completing 50% of his passes through three games. 

I didn't say I was either. My point is that Young needs to see how the Pro game is played . He saw what Dalton can do with the same line he has. Young in a year or 2 could be a fine QB but today he sucks and ruining his confidence because he has to play is not worth it. in 4 or 5 games let him go out on the field and sling it around. See how he does. If he is having the same problems as today sit him again. He didn't learn anything but having him get killed. We saw what happen to Carr when he was pounded on for a solid two years in Texas. He was a number one pick also. How did that work for him.

Love went 26 and was a project. They spent 2 1st and a starting WR in his prime to pick Young who's giant positive was he was pro-ready. Closes thing to Young sitting would be Lance at 3 who sat behind Jimmy G who had been taking them to the playoffs and he was a giant project coming from a covid riddled year. I don't know about any other QBs picked 1st sitting recently except for extremally poor performances. I'm going to look that up.

Sorry Young is not ready to play either. I don't care what they spent for him. It was too much. We should have taken CJ then. He has 2 wins. Young is zero and two. Just because we spent doesn't mean he has to start. That is the propaganda the NFL sells you. Young is not ready, or his performance would have been better in the two games he has played.

Sitting didn't seem to hurt Love in Green Bay did it. He even had his troubles too, but he did lead Green Bay back from a 17 point deficit did he not. Young is not ready. Maybe later.

Players usually come back when they are healthy. If Young is cleared he will play. 

Shame but if he does then expect another loss. We have a chance with Dalton.

A hell of a lot easier when you’re playing a trash defense that’s missing guys. 

Seattle was missing guys too. Our defense got tired in the 4th quarter and once the team couldn't move the ball the flood gates open and they couldn't stop Seattle.

Should be the same call this week and let Dalton play. It will be the perfect week to get on the winning side and give the team some confidence going forward for the 2nd quarter of the season. Doi you really think that a one game sit and Young is going to come out and set the world on fire in the NFL.

And yet...

361 yards, 2 TDs, 0 turnovers for Dalton. 

Dalton balled out Sunday in Seattle. It will be the best thing for the team to say Young is not ready to go and Andy will be starting. Might be best to put him on IR as they did with Corral last year. At least our tackles won't be "False Starting" since the crowd will be silent when we have the ball. They will be able to hear the snap count.

They have the most talented offense in the NFL. We traded our only legit WR and a ton of draft capital to go get our franchise QB. When you make a move like that it's because you think you're getting a guy that you don't have to surround with elite talent because your ability to do so is going to be severely limited. We're going to have to be wizards in FA and the mid-late rounds to make this experiment work. 

Ultimately, yeah I think the Tua comparison is apt but our ability to recreate what the Dolphins have is going to be a real uphill battle.

They picked the wrong QB then. Tepper wanted Young and there was not going to be any questions asked. Maybe after 2 years on the bench watching he might be a damn good QB, but Young is not ready for Prime Time at this stage in his career. We watch Love from Green Bay sit on the bench for 2 years and learn the position. Maybe in two years we will have a line that can block and open holes for the running backs.

We know our boy Scotty loves to wheel and deal, so you know his trigger finger is itching to make a deal we will later regret right about now. 

Our most valuable assets are probably:

• Burns
• Brown
• Chinn

We don't have a first round pick next year, the cupboard is pretty bare. Pretend you are Scott Fitterer and you are tasked with unfuging the current situation you helped create. What are the best trade packages that you can come up with that might help this team this year and into the future?

I would trade all 3, but if you are looking for just a 1. Burns would be the choice.

What Tony Pauline says makes sense, Stroud was perfect for Reich’s offense but as the Panthers brass continued their due diligence on the top 4 QB’s it was Bryce who clearly rose to the top and separated himself from the pack 

Still not ready to play the position though. If the Panthers want a chance to win next Sunday, they will start Andy not Bryce.

He was sitting there toi be taken. Tepper wanted Bryce instead. Well we would've been better to done the smart move, but we didn't. Live with it and hope Bryce develops by next year.

Good point.  I meant the conservative nature, but yeah, if we actually could run the fuging ball, we would be in much better shape.

I wondered if they practice with the speakers blaring to simulate the crowd noise they were about to face.

Shame we let Freeman go. But can anyone run with the way the Oline is playing.

It's watchable again.

Why I have said all a klong that Young should be watching this year instead of getting his head beat in by the opposition.

What? Where?

Bryce can stand to watch for more than 2 games, but Tepper is not going to allow that to happen. Tepper will force Frank to start him before he is truly ready.

Glad Bryce is getting his time to heal and to watch how the game is played. He wasn't ready to start, and Frank knew that. Maybe we will have some good players to pick from when the 2nd round starts next year. Dalton is not the future, but Bryce will get some time to watch and learn.

I think he is the next Drew Brees if he gets the right coaching.

We don't know how well Brees would have done his rookie season, because he didn't start. But I suspect he would have looked a lot like Bryce.

I was always jealous of how quickly Brees would dissect the defense and that quick gd release. So hard to defend.

 

I see that potential in Bryce. 

I still say he needs to sit for this year. He is just not ready for NFL football. Maybe next year but the 2023 is a redshirt year if he was in college.

There is no tongue biting on The Google.  If you sit him 3-4 games the narrative is why trade up to the number 1 pick if he is not ready and you dont want to play him.  Pitchforks would be out for Reich and Fitt. Then when he gets in week 4 and makes a rookie mistake we would be having this same conversation. 

Same level of misery, just in a different bucket. 

I personally prefer to watch his progression week to week rather than manufacturing a crisis on every miscue.

 

that is true, but we saw the same mistakes in the preseason we saw on Sunday. I just think a first year QB needs some watching before being thrown to the wolves is all. We didn't start Collins till later but that was then and today is today. Maybe he didn't study as hard during the preseason. We have another one on Sunday. We will see what he saw on film is translated to improvement.

Alright armchair scouts, let's hear who's got y'all excited!

Speaking for myself, I watch the college season with the intention of having a good time but then always go back at the end in order to do the "deep dive" scouting. That means for my list, I'm not exactly listing the prospects that I think are the best. I'm watching who I think is going to be fun to focus on during the games.

QB: Joe Milton III (Tennessee)
RB: Braelon Allen (Wisconsin)
WR: Marvin Harrison Jr (Ohio State)
TE: Brock Bowers (Georgia)
OT: Patrick Paul (Houston)
iOL: Donovan Jackson (Ohio State) 
DL: Leonard Taylor III (Miami)
EDGE: Jared Verse (Florida State)
LB: Smael Mondon Jr (Georgia)
CB: Nate Wiggens (Clemson)
S: Rod Moore (Michigan)

Any of those top 10 CB's to replace Horn. I am not saying get rid of him. He might be a good 2nd or backup but as a first we know he can't stay off the injury list for a full year. Then there is Jackson.

they wont eat crow but the many huddlers who said he was a bust two years ago... you did a good job demonstrating you dont understand professional football. Hats off to you.

So are they going to pay both Burns and Brown top dollar. Brown had a decent 1st half, but that 2nd half really sucked. Can blame the offense for not converting on 3rd downs and keeping them rested or blame the secondary for allowing those 3rd down conversions. Don't think they will pay both. So which one do you let go.

Don’t feel too bad for them..with the panthers pick and their own, they will have plenty QBs to choose from next year 

Next group will be better, but the mind set was get the QB now. They truly thought we were going to win with Bryce. We might but not this year.

his.

first.

game.

if it looks this bad mid seasons, then I'll consider panicking. If it looks this bad by season's end, I will actually panic.

We could have sat him the first 3 to 4 games to let him watch. So we the fans will have to bite our tongues as he learns the NFL game. Next year if we see this type play. Then we can scream "TOLD YOU SO!"

Well we need to be looking at a new CB next season. Seems Mr Horn will never stay healthy to play a full season for us. What his 3rd season and out again with a hamstring injury.

Can Bryce throw a long ball?
