Remember.  Peyton Manning threw incomplete passes too, very obvious correlation.

And extraordinary...and I mean in a league of his own...lip licker slash smacker.  That dude has a happy wife, and let's be honest...probably a happy mistress as well!

The only benefit to keep playing him is to boost his value. It won't be much but it could decent enough to trade him for a 6th MAYBE a 5th. 

The best part is we're not even done paying for him yet.  We still owe the Bears next year's second round pick, which will likely be the first pick in the 2nd round.

I don’t care how bad the Panthers play, making a national tragedy the platform for football jokes is embarrassing.

Bama had the same 6 5" 330 dudes in front of him. Hes playing like those bama games never happen and he just stepped onto a football. The one thing that got him drafted, seems to be the main issue-mentally he looked shocked. 

Bryce’s inaccuracy didn’t matter at Bama because his team was infinitely better than most opponents.  He could just chuck it and it would work out.  In the NFL the windows are tight and no imposters survive for long.

I’ll say it again, go watch his last game against LSU, it looks just like his pro performances and LSU was just on par with Bama that year.  Certainly not a NFL caliber defense.  

It really doesn't matter, we haven't been able to develop talent for years.  We get the bare minimum out of players.  When that bare minimum is enough to create market value they move out for another team at which point they generally perform even better under real coaching.  

There's no culture or tenured leadership in the building and it affects everything.  No one looks around the room and feels certain they'll even be together next year or that the message they're being sold will even last half a season.

The real thing we should be hoping for is for better leadership.  Until we get that the players might as well be nameless faces shoveling sand in a turnstile factory.

He moved protection to the weak side of an overload blitz and proceeded to never acknowledge two uncovered defenders, the last thing he needs is more freedom.

Tepper will can Canales (see what I did there), if he doesn't fix his boy Bryce.

Bryce does look like he's lost it mentally. His erroneous throws, jumpy feet, everything, he was a total deer in the headlights.  He's officially been David Carr'ed

Bryce never had it to lose, he was doing this same poo against any quality competition in college.  Go dig up his last game against LSU, it was a functional disaster and it looked just like yesterday.  Cool he beat up lesser opponents and built a false narrative on the juggernaut that is Alabama football.  He was the only QB in the Saban era to start a full season and not win a title.

The Panthers are nothing more than a farming organization now.  When we back into a good player they get shipped to another team ASAP.

I guess someone has to support the ole Tep dog. More power to you my man. 

How you could possibly deduce that I'm supporting Tepper from merely suggesting that your internet thread is a comical attempt at removing him as the owner says a lot more about you than me.  I'm no fan of Tepper but this is his team until he decides otherwise and no one is changing that.  

I'm sorry your hurt that I found you thread useless, but that is a truth.  Making up comical insults towards me won't change that.

You won't be successful gaslighting me.  Your thread is terrible and you handle criticism like a child.

It's comical that you think starting a thread on an internet forum is the beginning a movement that ends in Tepper getting ousted.  We have a lot of cheeks threads, this one is high quality cheeks.  G'luck on your coup, lemme know when he's gone.

The worst part of that game was that we officially went down 17 points at 1:32 remaining  in the first quarter, a total that we now know was enough to win the game.  

At 1:32 already facing an insurmountable lead we had not completed a pass.  We didn't get our first completion until :37 seconds remaining the first quarter.  

Every yard Bryce gained passing was essentially garbage time.

This thread is cheeks.....Bryce Young level cheeks.

They looked exactly like I expected. 

2023's worst team with a rookie coaching staff, a Bryce Young QB'd offense, an overachieving defense stripped of talent starting guys that were cut by other teams two weeks ago, a team that hadn't played any real simulated football together outside one series against another team's second string that was opening on the road against a divisional rival in one the harshest environments in the NFL.

Anyone that expected anything different was just deluding themselves.  It was only a matter of how badly we'd lose.

Not surprising even one little bit.  I felt that our odds for a significant injury were higher because we bubble wrapped the team in the preseason.  They went from playing completely guarded football to full contact high violence with no on ramp.

@CRA I owe you an apology. I thought being super upset at Canales/the team for not playing the starters much in the preseason was overblown. And I still don't know how much that would've changed things given how much of an abject disaster this team looked like yesterday, but it's clear as day they needed more live reps together. 

At least no one got hurt in the preseason!  We might have lost even worse.

After preseason game 1 Dave Canales was asked why he played starters in Tampa but not in Carolina.  He calmly stated that Tampa had a QB competition and Carolina didn't.  "We know who our guy is here."
 

I just don't see any scenario where a new coach with control over this choice would make Bryce the defacto starter after what we saw last year unless it was mandated when he was hired.  

So yes, I think Tepper meddled by only considering coaches that were onboard with project Bryce.

Not sure how much we can take away from the run game when they got down so fast. So I wouldn’t say the backs or like had a bad performance in that respect.

I’ve been a Bryce supporter and I’m going to keep an open mind about it because he is going to play regardless so we will see if he can sink or swim this year. With that said, it’s getting late early for him. Just poor awareness yesterday, sporadic accuracy, etc. 

Mingo is just awful, shoot him to the moon.

 

If you can declare Mingo to be awful and worthy of ejection to outer space why is so hard to do the same for Bryce?  They were drafted at the same time.  What has Bryce done to deserve more leash or an open mind?

I mean it's more gas in the lambo and a roof on their third home, but I take your point, they're working!

Any kind of turn around would have to start with this organization doing something right.  What on Earth has given you the impression that’s going to happen inside five years?

There are plenty of us who saw this disaster coming.

We are in the valley of the shadow of death.
