cranky

I agree about him being rattled.

When Bryce scored three TD's against the Cardinals, all you haters would say is it was because the Cardinals let up. It was garbage time. Yet when Dalton comes in, it isn't. Not sure thats a fair comparison. Secondly, I was simply responding to your statement that the offense wasn't doing enough to keep the Defense off the field. I just pointed out you were wrong.

Obviously but that has nothing to do with my response.

The Panthers had 320 yards to the Pats 307, they had 21 first downs compared to 16 for the Pats and they held the ball for 35 minutes compared to 24 for the Patriots. The offense did more than their part in keeping the Pats offense off the field.

Again, I am not defending him but putting the blame on him for Sundays loss is just ridiculous. Put it this way, in order for them to have won, Bryce would have thrown 7 TD's.

the offense is also the one unit that has been bad every single game Not nearly as bad as the defense. They set a record last year for points allowed last year in case you didn't hear. One unit, has had all of our resources dumped into it the last several years as the expense of having a well built team. That’s our offense. Tershawn Wharton, 54 million Tre’Von Moehrig 51 million Patrick Jones II 20 million Bobby Brown III 21 million These were all signed before the season to bolster the defense and the defense gave up 3 rushing TD's and 2 passing TD's yesterday with Drake Maye going 14/18 passing. And again, ST gave a TD and good field position on punts. Again, I am not defending Bryce's play yesterday. He didn't play nearly good enough but the teams problems go way beyond just him.

Yeah I saw that but thanks.

WHAT? They gave up 2 passing TD's and 3 rushing TD's on only 300 yards. They were 14/18 passing and were 4/4 in the red zone. They only had 300 yards because they didn't need. I don't see how you can be happy with that.

Bryce doesn't run ST's or the Defense. Special teams gave up a TD as well as long punt returns and the defense gave way too many big plays AGAIN. I'm not defending Bryce here. He didn't look good today and that's on him but the HC is responsible for the failings of the ST's and defense - not BY. Today was a total sh*t show and it all falls in Canales lap alone.

It sure is nice to see the defense playing competently. Hopefully they can continue the trend.

5 of them occured against the Steelers. They only have 1 in the other two games

Time will tell but it does look encouraging

First, I know it's a small sample size but as any long time Panther's fan knows, it's been hard to find anything positive to talk about so I figure it's worth pointing out. He may just be "the" guy

The Jags are 2-1, the Cardinals are 2-1 only losing to the 49's at the last second and the Falcons scored 22 and 20 against the Vikings and Bucs the two weeks prior to the Panthers. Not sure I would consider any of them trash.

I've never been an Evero fan but ignoring all the BY noise, I can't help but notice that they have been fairly solid so far this year. Not perfect, but definetly heading in the right direction. Hopefully they will keep it up and I can post a big apology to him at the end if the season.

I wouldn't say the Patriots are easy. They are playing very good football right now. They easily outplayed the Steelers but could'nt stop turning the ball over. That should be the most difficult of the 4

I think we start at 7 and go up from there depending, again, on how the defense plays.

Man your hate knows no bounds.

If the defense really has improved, then yes. If Sunday was just a fluke, then no.

I'm looking for the video but I found this from SI (from 3 days ago) in the meantime. "If you remove the turnovers, which is a pointless exercise since they happened, Bryce Young has been quietly very good. Sometimes, you can live with the turnovers, but the explosive plays to offset them haven't been there, and the turnovers have directly led to points and losses. But Jake Delhomme thinks that's the one area that needs to be cleaned up. Otherwise, Young has been strong. "We saw Bryce end the year well. I saw him play decent the first few weeks (this season). It’s just the turnovers, that’s something that’s killed him," he said via The Athletic's Joe Person."

There was a defender right on him - Bryce threw it the only place he could and it NOT be an int or pass defended

Any of the next 4 (Patriots, Dolphins, Cowboys, Jets) are winnable

No, the Renfrow throw is on Bryce. The ball hitting Tet in his hands in stride on a screen and him dropping it is a drop.
