Still a lot of questions to be answered for the Panthers after Saturday's 20-3 preseason loss to the Ravens. Didn't see enough of starting QB Sam Darnold to say he is ready. Backup Will Grier was an efficient 11-for-14 for 144 yards, but he failed to lead a TD drive. The red zone in particular has been dreadful this preseason.

Joe Brady needs to step up bigtime

There is no 3-5 year process in the NFL. This isn't college. You don't build an NFL team like a college team although our owner and front office seems to think you do.

You definitely dont build teams to be consistently good in 1 year either.

Oh so the Ravens did have another QB, they just didn't play him until it was time to kneel down.

How weird - I wonder if we fuged them up in training camp and this was their revenge? Playing the second stringers deep into the fourth quarter.

I obviously don’t strongly follow the Ravens’ preseason games but I don’t think you win 19 straight preseason games on accident or because you legitimately have the strongest depth of any team like 5 years in a row. My guess is they try a little harder in preseason than most teams…Harbaugh is probably big on “winning culture” or something, i.e. winning in the preseason carries over into the regular season.

      Bryce is elite at deep throws

      By beckersteen · Posted

      We had a QB who could do that and its the last time we went to the Super Bowl and the only time we had an MVP. Once he lost his ability to do that he was out of the league. To filter out insignificant stats I will only look at QBs who have played in 10 or more games this year. There are 28 qualifying QBs. Bryce is 25th in Air Yards per Attempt at 6.4. Only Joe Flacco, Cam Ward, and Dillon Gabriel are worse (6.0, 5.8, 5.1). Trevor Lawrence, Patrick Mahomes, and CJ Stroud are the median QBs at 7.1. Drake Maye and Sam Darnold lead the league at 8.7. Bryce is 18th in the league for passes that travel 30+ yards at 12. The median is Caleb Williams at 15. The league leader is Matthew Stafford with 26. With passes that travel 40+ yards, Bryce is tied with three others at 21st in the league with 3. Only Jacoby Brissett, Cam Ward, Joe Flacco, and Dillon Gabriel are worse. The median is a three-way tie with Drake Maye, Trevor Lawrence, and Baker Mayfield with 6. The league leader is Sam Darnold with 12. Having the ability to complete passes down the field (not YAC) stretches the defense and makes them account for more ground. It keeps players out of the box and keeps formations in nickel or dime, less line backers for your RBs to worry about. Bryce is why we have 2 losses against the Saints. If he had the outright ability to sling the football down field we beat the easily, but he doesn't. So they crowded the box and our 2 starting caliber RBs with our top ~10 Oline couldn't carry the offense to a win on their own. The limitations of the offense fall squarely on Bryce.

      Bryce’s deep passes are intermediate passes for other strong armed QBs. I will say that Bryce’s accuracy on his deep passes have improved. Before they would just sail out of bounds. Now the WR actually has a fighting chance on the ball.
