And, no, this time I'm not linking the article because I'm tired of the Charlotte Observer's poo about going over my allotment and a digital subscription. They ain't the only game in town, so fug 'em!

Anyway, Palardy has been doing well from all reports, so much so that it's not a stretch to believe that he really could replace Lee, and to be honest most of us probably couldn't see that coming based upon last season. I mean, there was a marked difference between their averages, and honestly Palardy was a bottom feeder in the rankings. Now, Palardy has upped his game so much that he actually might take Lee's spot.

Now, I know there was at least one person in a thread the other day that suggested that Palardy might have some trade value, but we may be getting to the point where the FO is looking at Lee's trade value as opposed to the much younger, perhaps more durable, Palardy.

Now one thing I'd like to add is that Lee is one of the better directional punters in the league, but Palardy looks like he has even boned up on that skill as well. 

Of course most of us aren't privy to the practices, but if Palardy keeps punting like he has been this preseason, then would it really be wise to let him walk if he could answer the call for the next decade or more?

What most of you fail to realize is that Mike had a bunch of short yardage punts (45-50-45 yard lines) that brought his average down last season. In the 8 games he played, he rarely had chances to boom the ball from deep in his own end. The Panthers coaches realize this - and people forget Mike led the nation his senior year at Tennessee in punts inside 20. Oh, yeah - as a lefty, the ball rotates off his foot differently - more difficult for returners to gauge than right footed punters.

Oh lord here comes sanjay to claim we can save enough by cutting Lee to sign everyone else on the team to extensions.

This right here is sanjay's ideal roster:

Three positions left, just enough room for a QB, kicker, and punter.

when they pop that stupid annoying subscription window up just close it and then proceed to open said link in incognito mode (assuming you're on google chrome)

      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

      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.
