Eight games in and I feel like I've had enough time to evaluate Teddy Bridgewater. I know Teddy wasn't the only reason we lost yeterday, our interior Oline is crap and our defense isnt aggresive enough.  But Teddy just isn't our QB of the future like I had hoped he could be. There are many things I really like about Teddy Bridgewater, his personality, leadership, gamesmanship, good decision making, leads recievers, and I belive he has a strong enough arm.  He just doesn't have "it", especially when we need it.  In other words he isn't clutch, he plays great for 3 quarters, but when he has to make a play and force something that may not be there, he can't.  This week, game on the line, throws and interception.  Last Sunday, game on the line, takes a costly sack that puts us out of FG range.  Week before, game on the line, overthrows DJ then on next drive throws an interception.

I had said before the season started that we are too good for Trevor and I still believe we win at least 5 games this year.  I think that puts us out of the running for the top 3 and I dont want to reach on a QB.  Next year we may have an even better record than this year if we fix the O line in the offseason.

We still have the Bridgewater problem. We need a QB. I don’t want Bridgewater here after his contract is up. Wouldn’t be surprised if the Panthers trade up.

He’s not the only problem but he is a problem at the most important position in sports.  He needs literally a perfect team around him to get to the playoffs. We shouldn’t have that little of a window with any quarterback.  We need a guy who can win us games when we don’t play our best or don’t have the best roster. Our current guy can’t do that.

      Strength of Schedule for 2025

      By Gapanthersfan · Posted

      Bryce and Dave will determine how many games this team wins next year. It’s not on the WRs. The RBs. LBs. This is about 2 things: 1. Can Bryce continue to come up big in the few key downs that decide most games?  2. Can Canales evolve his play calling to counter punch like the big boys do. Half time adjustments.  teams that score 30+ points on the regular win more games than not. That’s on Bryce and Dave. The offense is top 10 at every position group, save for TE and QB. A baller TE is gravy but not crucial when the receivers are dudes.  The defense is the defense. It’ll be better this season, hopefully by a large margin, but Dave/Bryce is really where it’s at.

      Normally I'd wholeheartedly agree with this. But I feel like teams figured out this offense after the Raiders game. Bryce was so inept the first 2 games that we couldn't really even run the offense. Dalton's first game showed what we had. But after that game, coverages got a lot tighter and windows were smaller. When Bryce came back in, his ability to extend plays made a big difference. It's really difficult to stop a QB that can beat/escape 1on1 tacklers. It puts a lot of pressure on the defense when you blitz. And he was completing throws in tight coverage with anticipation. Point being Bryce wasn't throwing to wide open receivers that were schemed open by the offense. Occasionally yes. But not often.

      With the additions we've made to our roster combined with the state of the division and the conference as a whole there is no excuse for this team not to make a legitimate push for 8-9 wins. Anything less is honestly inexcusable. There will be no more free passes for being a doormat in this iteration of the league where even mediocre teams are competing for playoff spots.
