Sure it is preseason and yes it was only one game but Cam completed 65% of his passes tonight. Most impressive was the scramble completions he made for firsr downs. He kept looking downfield and his receivers came back for the ball. A great start for Cam and his receivers. This is exactly what Norv predicted.

You can tell WRs are being held to higher standards this year. Last year no one would have worked back to Cam. 

Funchess stood out tonight. He actually played up to his size.

I really like Wright. He just seems like a savvy vet who may not do anything spectacular but he's going to be in the right place at the right time.

Samuel seems greatly improved. It seems like he's settling in as a WR and playing up to his speed measurables.

I'm curious what we have planned for Moore. Reports out of camp were pretty glowing and he looked good in the first week of preseason. I kind of feel like we've been intentionally down playing him since then. We'll see.

Funchess has always done that. I mean if he can consistently run crisp routes and not be lazy he is very good. It's the consistency that is lacking because of work ethic. Wright, Frazier, and Samuel are better route runners at this point and it's because they don't get lazy. Moore looks like the speed of the game has gotten to him a bit. Not unexpected coming out of a small program. He will catch up.

Helps when your top target isn't a 300 lb lineman.... I mean WR (cough...cough...Kelvin)

Yup, it's what I have been begging for years...  All he needed was a competent OC and some viable weapons to be at his best.  He still carries the load, but now the work is distributed to a tolerable level across the supporting cast as well...  and Norv just knows when to call what, and that is probably an even bigger piece of all this than the surrounding talent level.  A good coach can scheme to his talent.  Shula wasn't a good coach lol.

I agree with you about Moore.. I think they are hiding the his part of the playbook while giving curtis some shine... Who doesn't play next week will be telling... If Moore sits early he is definitely a bigger part of the offense they aren't showing..

      Bryce’s new look. He looks like a grown up

      By SCO96 · Posted

      I feel the same way. Bryce hasn't proven himself to be so good that he would clearly lap anyone that we'd bring in the compete for the starting job. I think the team is actually afraid to do that. If Bryce goes down does anyone think Kenny Pickett is solid option to replace him?. We can control him for 2026 and 2027. The problem is 2028. Unless he takes a massive leap forward ability wise, I don't see how Carolina can justify paying B.Y. $50 million a year. So far, Bryce has not shown that he can CONSISTENTLY carry a team. He needs to be carried by a strong offensive line, running game, pass catchers and a respectable defense. If he's lacking any of those things I don't think we can make the playoffs in 2026/2027 unless the NFC South is as bad (or worse) than 2025. Unfortunately, athletes and agents have EGOs! When he has a chance for a 2nd contract his management team will probably insist on a "market deal" and feel insulted if they don't get one. That leaves a couple of options if his play hasn't significantly improved. 1) Let him walk and test the market. 2) Franchise him for the 2028 season if you're still not sure about what to do. 3) Extend him to a team friendly deal that pays him below the "current market" which would allow the team to continue to build a solid team to support him. 4) Over pay him and pretty much ruin any chance of becoming a consistent contender. The last option is the LEAST DESIRABLE ONE. The 2026 season is a pivotal season for Bryce and the Carolina Panthers. The success of the next 5-7 years could ultimately be decided on how well plays the next 2 seasons.

      Drake Maye ended up putting almost 300 on them lol. Bryce was stunned from the beginning to end. I know that's an easy comp for the Bryce truthers but no one else put up those puny QB stats against them all season long.
