Great article. You've really uncovered something that was right in front of our faces. Your post perfectly spells out the obvious correlation between the Panthers success and Nicholas Cage... much like this article:

True Fact: The Lack of Pirates Is Causing Global Warming

Now the article goes on with a bunch of words...blah blah blah...but the point is that when things happen at the same time they are a direct cause of each other. Now let's bring this back around to the matter at hand...Nick Cage and the Panthers with some NextGen stats.

Leaving Las Vegas is arguably Nick Cage's best movie. When did that movie come out you ask? Well 1995 is the answer. What happened to the Panthers in 1995? That's right...Inception (not the movie).

What other movie did I like from Nicholas Cage? Matchstick Men. I thought it was a nice story of a conman getting conned and played into his strengths as an actor (being what they are). What year did the movie Matchstick Men get released? That's right. 2003. What happened to the Panthers in 2003...you know I think.

What other year did the Panthers make it to the NFC Championship or beyond you might ask. Well the answer is 1996. Well ok then but I suppose the real question then is what movie did Nick Cage come out with in that particular year? None other than The motherfuging Rock (emphasis mine). That movie was bad ass and had Sean Connery in it. Nuff said.

You know who was the costar of Nick Cage in Matchstick Men? That's right...none other Sam Rockwell. How about the costar in Leaving Las Vegas? Karate Kid's own Elisabeth Shue (I'm sure you remember her). Well as we can see here (thanks to https://oracleofbacon.org/movielinks.php) Sam Rockwell and Elisabeth Shue have a very real connection:

 

Sam Rockwell

was in

19th Annual Critics' Choice Movie Awards (2014) (TV)

with

Oprah Winfrey

was in

Amy & Isabelle (2001) (TV)

with

Elisabeth Shue

So friends...I think it's clear that since there will be another Annual Critics' Choice Awards this year...the Panthers can reasonably expect to make it to (at least) the NFC Championship game. Now that's some NextGen stats right there.

Imagine if Brooklyn Decker and Steph Curry had a kid, and Jeremy Igo took the baby photos of the kid wearing SCP's helmet while facing BOA and periscoped it live on his podcast with special guest Cam Newton. It would be like some holy trinity of Panthers awesome.

Mother of god.

      Malik Willis anyone

      I must apologize, my sarcasm at times doesnt translate well in text form lol. At this point I would welcome us signing him, Trey Lance, trading for Jameis Winston, asking about Deshaun Watson and playing phone tag with Tom Brady before I ever fully entertain a season of Bryce Young being the defacto Starting Quarterback of the Panthers.

      Bryce is elite at deep throws

      By beckersteen · Posted

      We had a QB who could do that and its the last time we went to the Super Bowl and the only time we had an MVP. Once he lost his ability to do that he was out of the league. To filter out insignificant stats I will only look at QBs who have played in 10 or more games this year. There are 28 qualifying QBs. Bryce is 25th in Air Yards per Attempt at 6.4. Only Joe Flacco, Cam Ward, and Dillon Gabriel are worse (6.0, 5.8, 5.1). Trevor Lawrence, Patrick Mahomes, and CJ Stroud are the median QBs at 7.1. Drake Maye and Sam Darnold lead the league at 8.7. Bryce is 18th in the league for passes that travel 30+ yards at 12. The median is Caleb Williams at 15. The league leader is Matthew Stafford with 26. With passes that travel 40+ yards, Bryce is tied with three others at 21st in the league with 3. Only Jacoby Brissett, Cam Ward, Joe Flacco, and Dillon Gabriel are worse. The median is a three-way tie with Drake Maye, Trevor Lawrence, and Baker Mayfield with 6. The league leader is Sam Darnold with 12. Having the ability to complete passes down the field (not YAC) stretches the defense and makes them account for more ground. It keeps players out of the box and keeps formations in nickel or dime, less line backers for your RBs to worry about. Bryce is why we have 2 losses against the Saints. If he had the outright ability to sling the football down field we beat the easily, but he doesn't. So they crowded the box and our 2 starting caliber RBs with our top ~10 Oline couldn't carry the offense to a win on their own. The limitations of the offense fall squarely on Bryce.
