Overall I think he was impressive.  I think in the 2nd half he missed a couple of throws that may have put some pressure on him but after NYJ go their first score Darnold marched the Panthers down to scoring postion and got us up by 2 scores again.

Gotta get that O-line in shape though.

He was a warrior standing in the pocket and making throws at the last moment.  I was overhall happy with his preformance.

Looked mostly like a pretty savvy vet out there.  Cool.  Calm. Collected.

Good arm strength. 

Accuracy was a bit off but I think that will come through with more reps & gametime.  

All in all a fine first game.

Loved that QB draw.  Don't know if that decision was his or Brady's with no Safety deep.  But that's what good teams do - make the D pay for their mistakes.

low tier game manager, but at least he's only being paid like one

can you explain this take? the way he took hits, bounced back from mistakes, demonstrated significant arm strength, etc... didn't strike me as a game manager.

it is true our offensive philosophy is dink and dunkish, but that's partly because of the atrocity that is the OL.

Playcalling was very up and down.

Brady needs to adjust.  It was obvious that Salah made some defensive changes at halftime and Brady didn't seem to adjust.  His best play was the misdirection with DJ Moore which is something I think they should have done more of.  Get that defense second guessing again.  

They obviously were targeting CMC.  We have other weapons and Brady IMO didn't use them enough.

I agree.  Somehow, Moore had 80 yards receiving, but it felt like he wasn't being utilized enough.  Robby had that one deep bomb... Just need to get these WRs more involved in the game somehow.  The one 2nd half drive that yielded points saw a lot of nice efforts to get WRs the ball in space.

      I can say that I have defended Canales because I get that they are doing all they can to keep from looking like idiots for drafting Bryce, from the trade up to signing $150m guards to drafting XL and Brooks etc---nothing seems to work.  And Hiring Canales was part of the Bryce Young rehab program, so so he can't really decide to "move on."  That has to come from Morgan and Tepper. Personally, I think Bryce is due for an injury.  He is small, he is not thick, and he has been a LOT more healthy than most any other QB has who has endured so much pressure.  The thing that bothers me is this---Bryce really does not go through his progressions quickly.  He locks on to his presnap read and stays locked onto him for too long--he seems to fail to anticipate the WR/TE's positioning on the play before the cut--for example, if the WR is running a dig and the CB has his back to the inside of the field, he should be open for a second or less just after the cut.  He seems to wait until the cut has been made before deciding, then checking down quickly while moving in the pocket. OL:  There seems to be a lack of communication--is that on Mays?  Watch this team presnap--they seem a bit confused at times.   I can almost predict the success rate of the play by watching the center and QB before the snap.

      Anyone else remember back in 2010 when Fox piloted having music under the in-game replays during one of Carolina's games? Not the commercial bumpers but the actual replay clips that the announcers would talk over. Pretty sure it was vs the 49ers. And it was terrible. Point being, Carolina continues being so bad that we get the networks trying things out during their games.

      Is it bad I found this video more hilarious than pathetic? I am still laughing at that one play where half the people on the field ran into each other and Bryce still couldn't see Chuba wide open... Also laughing at Cade blocking nobody and somehow losing his cleat Man this offense is a poo show
