cranky

I can agree with the competition part

I agree except for the fact he has shown improvements since returning. If he was still playing like he was previously or if he reverts back, than I'm with you. Until then though, I'll support him and hope he works out.

Why? Seriously, what are the options. Try again with another QB for the 5th time and hope again. We've been playing that game ever since Tepper got here. I'm ready to be done with it. I understand your dissappointment but can't help but feel your just cutting off your nose to spite your face here.

Did anyone see the Chris Berman highlights were he knighted Chuba as the Chuba Missile Crises when he scored against the Chiefs? It was great! I guess Chuba has made it to the big times. It's on X but I have no idea how to embed it so here's the link. https://x.com/i/status/1861239538753970359

The main point I am trying to make is Bryce made the throw and it should have been a TD. I just don't see how you can say he was just "okay" today. Here's some of what he did: Drove down the field in 44 seconds for a score at the end of the 1st half. Led the Panthers on a 9 minute drive to start the 3rd finishing off with a TD pass to Moore. That's 10 straight points. In the fourth he drove the field leading to 3 and then on the very next drive drove the field leading to a TD to tie the game. Again, that's 10 straight points. I am not saying it was perfect - but surely that is better than just okay

They also called a facemask on the Panthers when it clearly wasn't. I always thought the rumors about the Chiefs getting good calls was just that but am not too sure after today.

I thought putting more points on the scoreboard was how you win.

BY played way beyond just "OK" today. Tommy Tremble holds onto the ball in the end zone and the Panthers win today. I would venture to say the only reason the Panther's were even close was of his performance. It sure as heck wasnt because of the defense or rushing.

If TT holds onto the ball in the EZ, we win

Can't make the receiver get open and you cant make the tight ends hold onto the ball

The pass to Tommy Tremble was spot on. Tremble has to come down with that. The pass the Theilen was spot on on the 2 pt conversion but he was slammed in the head.

So what. The Panthers got the win both times. Bryce did exactly what was needed to win - complete the pass when it was there and protect the football - nothing more. I could care less what his yards per pass attempt is so long as they get the win.

I believe that title actually belongs to JaMarcus Russell

Y'all are crazy. How's that saying go: insanity is doing the same thing over and expecting different results. Every year, the Panthers get a new QB and when they dont immediatley live up to expectations, everybody wants to get rid of them and start over. Bridgwater, then Darnold, then Newton, then Mayfield then Young and now everyone wants to discard him and start over again just so they can get a Justin Fields or a Trubisky or a Rosen or a Jones or a Mac Jones etc, etc, etc. I wasn't a fan of the pick but I'm tired of the revolving door and I've seen enough over the past three games to make me believe there may actually be something there. Darnold, Mayfield, Geno Smith were all promising QB's put in terrible positions who floundered and consequently disgarded but through some miracle, are all playing at a high level now. Sometimes development takes time.

Caleb Williams Stats over last 3 games: 48 of 95 (51%), 468 yds, 0 TDs, 0 Ints, 1 Fum, 0 - 3 record Bryce Young Stats over last 3 games: 55 of 88 (63% ), 521 yds, 4 TDs, 3 Ints*, 0 Fum, 2 -1 record *He’s actually thrown 5 TDs to 2 Ints but 1 TD was called back because of a penalty in the Giants game and the interception to Legette could/should be a fumble as it was a beautiful pass. I know Young and Canales get a lot of hate around here and some of it is justified, but you have to admit that what they’ve been able to do over the past three games with a cast of rookies is a vast improvement from last year .
