cranky

First: a big thanks for taking the time to do this. Second: "Panthers are in nickel with Scourton + Johnson as the EDGEs. Bunch to the right and who wants to guess the play call by Evero? If you guess cover 3, you win! " I think that pretty much sums up Evero's play calling. He's just too predictable and offenses are exploiting it.

Please. Anything but BY stuff.

Really? Well I looked and using the search function, I could only find 3 posts in the last 30 days on Evero. But maybe I missed it as every time I come on here there's nothing but BY suck threads lol. I'll look more carefully in the future and if I see something already posted in the previous week, I'll refrain from starting a new post.... Unless it's to comment on how much BY sucks

Agreed and I did say Canales future may be tied to him more than Young.

I get what you are saying but am not sure even with better players they would be much better. Heck, they invested heavily in free agency last year to get better against the run and yet they, again, gave up over 200 yrds rushing. That's been a common theme EVER SINCE EVERO HAS BEEN HERE.

Seriously, I don't know how this turned into another BY thread. It was in no way posted as a defense of him. I simply wanted to point out there are other things on this team that should be concerning besides him. Not sure how yall have turned it into another BY sucks post but here we are....again.

The Panthers won the other games at the beginning of the year were the defense held them to 22 and 17 points as well but they only scored 22 and 20 points themselves I don't think your argument passes the test.

Really? What other thread are you talking about because this is the only post I have started in a year or so. Secondly, am I only allowed to create a thread that has to do with how badly Young is doing. That's rich LOL. I was only half serious when I said the forums name should be changed but I guess I was right.

The Panthers had the worst defense in the history of the NFL last season and yet somehow, instead of commenting on how dissappointed they are in it or why might be the cause of it or how frustrated they are, the first 7 responses are all about BY. This place really has gone to crap. It's a one themed forum. Just change the name to the Bryce Young Sucks forum and quick pretending you car about the rest of the team.

Seems like almost everyone here blames Young for the Panthers losses while completely ignoring the defense and its impact on their record. Last year, they gave up 32 points a game which means they had to, on average, score 33 to win. In fact, in their last two wins, the Panthers scored 36 and 44 and they still just barely won as the defense gave up 30 and 38. Having to score 33 points to win a game is untenable long term regardless who your QB is. I have no idea why Canales decided to bring him back but given it was his decision to bring him back, Canales fate may be more closely tied to him than Youngs.

If it were just one post I would agree but it isn't.

Man you must really hate him. I've never seen someone spend so much of their time trashing someone.

If you want to rank a bust, start with Canales. I put the blame for last weekend solely on him. His play calling was abysmal and the team lacked any intensity on the field. He was outcoached by a new HC with 0 games under his belt!

First, those aren't excuses, those are assesments and I think they are pretty much on point.

He doesn't rank at all yet as he's not a bust.

Amazing. 15 minutes into the season and everyones already talking about how the season is already over - 15 minutes.

Around 70% of their projections will land within 1.5 wins of the preseason totals. That's good but not perfect. A couple of notable exceptions are: 2023 Jets: The were projected for 9.5 wins but Rogers was hurt week one and went 7-10. 2021 Bengals were projected at 6.5 and went 10-7 going to the SB. That was the year Burrows came back from an injury and Chase was added through the draft. 2023 Texans were projected for 6.5 wins but went 10-7 thanks to a phenominal rookie season from Stroud. The point being, the emergence of a QB ( or decline) can change those lines quickly. IF, Young continues were he left off at AND Tet is what they hope, then the 6.5 projected wins could be another "notable exception"

You didn't see the team be incompetent. You saw the 2nd and 3rd stringers playing what the sub coaches called. Nothing more. I don't think anyone really knows how the team will be at this point. I, for one, hope it is a continuation of late last season.

How do you do that...please lol

Are you ever happy man lol.

I believe common sense says you pay more attention to your current talent level than past deals to dictact what mode you are in - pretty sure that puts us in the build mode.

The problem with that is studs are rare. If we have to have a stud DT(NT) to fix our problem then we are probably doomed defensively.

I hear the personel excuses - the problem is he had Burns, Luvu, Chin and Brown last year and he didnt show much then either: 23rd against the rush with Brown, Burns and Luvu at the line AND they gave up 29 rushing TDs - the most in the NFL. They also were either last or near to last with pressure and sacks. I'm not sure its so much personel as it is scheme.

1) Every free agent pickup this season is underperforming from their previous year. 2) The good players we had all elected to go elsewhere instead of staying with the Panthers (for the same or more money) when given the opportunity. 3) The team can't tackle to save their life - it has been a consistent thread throughout his time here. That pretty much sums him up I think.

So the Panthers are finally showing signs that they may actually be getting good and you decide to sell your PSL's and celebrate huh. Not sure I can cheer to that but whatever makes you happy
