Kyle Allen just throws a more catchable ball

This is admittedly a garbage thread, but also a rhetorical device to smack the jesus out of any moron who's ever said the title out loud and not in jest. Besides being a bafflingly stupid statement from a technical standpoint, its general tenor as a knock against Cam now looks profoundly idiotic.

Kyle Allen has played admirably up to this point given the circumstances and I hope we continue to develop him as a part of the team. However, the true test of his mettle was always going to be a game where the entire team played like garbage and he was going to have to put the team on his back and find a way to win as Cam Newton has done countless times in his career, and we saw nothing today that suggested he's capable of that.

Now that we've crashed back down to earth, let's cross our fingers for Cam Newton and 5-3.

I don't want to sound like a Cam homer but I agree 100% with what you said. In a way I feel we needed this kind of display just to put things back in perspective. Fans and media have been blinded by this team's success to the point we actually thought we would be better off with Allen than Newton. Being 4-0 is a measurement of the team's ability not of Allen's.Now that he has been forced to pass look at him..

this whole situation sucks. im not cheering kyle allen to be bad. but the reality is, if you were kidding yourselves into thinking he's anything other than a viable backup/okay starter, then you were going to be massively disappointed in this turnout.

richard sherman sure thinks allen throws a catchable ball

to preemptively respond to the third tier trash can posters that will ooze out to complain, this post isn't a knock against kyle allen for having a bad game or throwing INTs like all quarterbacks do, but that this game (defense and special teams  playing poorly) offered him a chance to put the team on his back and carry it, and not only did he not but he totally melted down.

he has done an admirable job holding down the fort and 

...we interrupt this post to report on bosa stealing kyle allen's jock

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By Tepper's Chest Hair · Posted

      Sometimes its fun to read the threads/posts.  The panthers could literally hire a groundskeeper and we'd have a thread "improving the field for no other reason to prop up Bryce Young".  Apparently no move is ever done to actually make the team better.  All a conspiracy to just focus on Bryce Young. Or suddenly daydreaming and reminiscing about Sam Darnold when he was hated more than Bryce Young.  Its really fun to do a message board search about Darnold during that time period.   Or thinking there is just a tree that grows QB, and you can just easily go up and pluck one.

      Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying.

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
