I know, this isn't sexy or groundbreaking news, but I like his confidence in our WR corps, for him to be that confident and defiant in telling the media that makes me think he is either A. In denial or B. He has loved what he has seen in practice the last few days from our WRs that the media didn't see and was cutoff from and he really feels like that. I hope it's B.

Oh he said this today BTW during our presser

Yea he said something to the same effect about the LT situation last year and look how that turned out

I mean at what point is this board going to stop waiting for Ron to insult our intelligence? The WR situation is crap, everybody knows it, but you're not going to get him to admit to that because his job is not to bury his own players, it's to be constructive.

The Panthers are one injury away from having a very solid WR core in 2015.  After the Panthers drafted Funchess, I think everyone was excited about our WR's.  Nobody expected or wanted KB to blow out his knee, but this is the NFL and injuries happen. With the improved o-line, I think the Panthers are going to ground & pound more and that is not a bad thing.  In addition to an improved o-line, the Panthers also have some very talented RB's in Stewart, CAP, and etc.  I still think the Panthers will pick up another WR, but in the meantime enjoy the running game.

Until somebody actually fugs up in a real game he really shouldn't be saying anything different. Its not likely him playing Pinocchio is going to turn water into wine ,  but him going all Huddle on his own players can only be counterproductive at this point.

He can say whatever he wants as long as they have a game plan to feature the run game and tightends. That is this teams saving grace with the WR corp they have.We will see if Shula will or will not be a bone head when preparing a game plan

      Josina Anderson: Panthers NOT trading Adam Thielen

      I mean, no I’m not going to panic when he got 2 Qs and looked great in 1 and looked not great in another (let’s not mention the drop).    Yeah we finally have a team that would be considered average offensively around him. Let’s roll this season.

      The woe is me everything but Bryce sucks mantra is stale af my friend. Look nobody here is going to argue with the fact Frank Reich was not a good head coach. At the same time. Bryce Young is now in his second season with his second coaching staff and a handpicked young offensive head coach who has been known for working with QB's such as Baker and Geno. As far as the offensive pieces around Bryce we have the 4th highest salary cap allocation (that might be even higher now after the new Moton deal) dedicated to the OL in the entire league. We have 2 first round WR's one of them 8th overall the first time we've ever selected a WR that high in franchise history. And the fact of the matter is Bryce Young did not have a good preseason. It's not the first time it's happened either. We all hope to see he and the rest of the team flip a switch in week 1. But we should all be able to agree that the offensive performances we've seen from the entire QB room (Bryce included) in preseason was simply unacceptable.

      We have seen Bryce play… what… 9 games with AT BEST what one would consider NFL average WRs? You just can’t see the forest for the trees and keep going back to your lazy take of revisionist history.    he looked AWFUL Y1 with the worst coaching I’ve ever seen in the NFL and one of the weakest WR rooms I can recall. He looked awful first half of y2 and great second half of y2 with average coaching and average skill position. I don’t know where this elite talent argument even comes from.
