Cam being the problem is just a way better narrative to push and gets way more attention. Watching this unfold specifically  was one of the worst feelings i ever had as a fan. I almost started praying for us to please complete a pass so i could be at ease. It was the worst fear i had of this offense coming true.

And i blame Rivera for wearing that stupid ass t shirt last week trying to sale false hope.

media headlines and "narratives" aren't written based on tape or analysis...mostly on stats and catchy titles.  Everyone loves to hate Cam

It's never all anyone's fault.   Nationally however, QB gets the credit for the win, and the blame for the losses unless he has a statistically dominant day.   You watch that entire game and it's plenty of blame to go around to everyone in a panther uniform.  

I'm looking at it from this standpoint.  It was an important game (As far as NFC south title), we loss but actually have the chance to play again.  You don't get that chance again in the playoffs.   I am hoping that it causes focus , and gets everyone ready to play. 

We can definitely beat the Saints.  We can definitely beat anyone in the playoffs.   We just have to get everyone on the same page.

Very good breakdown of the first 8 plays. Not all his fault by any means.

Unfortunately it seemed like he pressed too hard thereafter and made some very poor decisions trying to make something happen. 

We need healthier WRs.

And a new coordinator.

What I found most concerning about this game (and others) is just how well defenses seem to be able to anticipate what we're doing.

We're predictable, very predictable, and I think we all know why.

They knew EXACTLY where Olsen was going to be damn near all game. They ran routes with our receivers on multiple occasions.

Not a good look.

McNabb was able to make average receivers productive. We were average at the beginning of the year, before trades and injuries. While I am a firm believer the QB makes receivers and someone who is glorified like Cam on here shouldnt require all-pro receivers to be productive(2015 proves that), what is being thrown out there on the field now is a joke. People blame Shula for 3 receivers ending up in the same spot but I can't for my life believe someone would draw that up intentionally, so to me it is the receivers or communication to them that is allowing that to happen.

We run the exact same thing over and over. We may change up going to the left or right. We all know this team doesn't adjust on the fly and I don't believe they really gameplan for defenses. I just think teams that aren't familiar with us we did well against which is why we did good against Vikes, Pats, Lions and even the Eagles really. Once we ran into our division who really know us we hit a wall

      An honest look at Bryce Young

      By panthers55 · Posted

      Actually I have always felt that using a qb to sneak was a huge mistake even for big guys. Do you remember when Cam sneaked the ball and got a helmet spear to the head and it wasn't even called. It is unnecessary and potentially dangerous. Everyone knows what you are going to do. Why not have a big guy or backup run the ball who is disposable? Yeah they know what is coming if you bring in a big guy. Like they don't if you keep the QB in...... Actually there are many more reasons not to sneak the ball with the qb versus using something else like New Orleans did who could still run or pass.

      An honest look at Bryce Young

      By CRA · Posted

      you want me to provide evidence of his jump balls? Or bailing the pocket?  I don't think either of those claims requires me to show you evidence.  What do you want evidence of exactly?  never did I mention downfield throws.  I said, he gets blind to play at the lines because of his size (the quick stuff).  There are literally plays I don't have time to search for but have been highlighted on QB school where there is just no way he can see the options on certain plays even if wide open (talking behind and around the line of scrimmage).   Line too close paired with the receiving  option too close.  And the stat I referenced (which you can find on next gen stats) was he is below average at and behind the line of scrimmage....which I'm sure his size/vision plays a role in the why. I have an agenda? Cool.  Then so do you.  and again, Bryce's cherry picked best play (which isn't how anything works).....still leaves him on the low end of production.  I'm not overly bashing Bryce.  I just acknowledge, most signs point to him having a low ceiling.  And in the big picture, that's not the direction you want to go.  He is our QB for now.  I hope he improves.  Which in turn would allow our O and others to develop.   But to me, there isn't much of an argument that Bryce Young is anything but short term solution.

      Again where is the evidence. You keep saying it but honestly you have shown no evidence. Unless you know what he was supposed to do and then what he did do, you don't know anything about his intentions and or forced changes due to height. His completion percentage for passes from 1 to 10 yards was only slightly lower than his best percentage which was 10 to 20 yards passing.  Not enough of a difference to be significantly different.  Truth is you have an agenda that you try to justify despite any evidence to the contrary. Many of us felt the same way but have allowed his actual play to inform our opinion. I still would have picked Stroud over Bryce but I am willing to keep an open mind and see what is there instead of filtering everything through my biases and already polarized opinions.
