Now that hopefully the existential fear of Cam being seriously hurt has washed over us, can we appreciate just how incredible Burns has looked in the preseason?
 
Preseason or not, 4 sacks in 3 games in limited snaps is extraordinary.
 
Even ultimately great EDGE rushers typically don't look great in year one.
 
If Burns stay healthy, he could be a legitimate DROY candidate.  
 
His ability to diagnose plays and elite athleticism reminds me of Kuechly.
 
I understand this preseason has certainly not been sunshine and roses, but it's hard not to be ecstatic about how great Burns can be.

On the night, Burns finished with five tackles, two sacks and a forced fumble as well as a tackle for loss. In the second half, Burns took down Patriots quarterback Jarrett Stidham for a strip-sack that was recovered by defensive tackle Woodrow Hamilton. Later on, after being pressured on the outside by Bryan Cox Jr., Stidham was forced to step up and Burns was able to register his second sack of the night.

He makes a lot of nice plays on backside run support too. When he gets left unblocked he gets to the ball so fast 

He made one REALLY nice play last night where he chased the RB down on the backside.  I said "Damn that guy is fast".  We got us a real one in Burns.

      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.
