Just because the game is on I thought I would spark up an age old debate. I like to think most people wanted Brown but Simmons had a lot of support. I like to think it was 60/40 split. I was in the Simmons camp, I will concede Brown has been pretty solid. A force in the run game and will occasionally get those coverage sacks.

Simmons started off very slow wit h a staff that had no idea what to do with him but he turned it on late. Has proven to be a versatile chess piece whom many said we got the poor man's Simmons in Chinn(they booth look equal to me) so hindsight and all who would you rather have?  

Yes I know Chinn makes it look like we made the right decision but also Simmons plays more like a linebacker rusher than Chinn who plays more safety coverage lb specialist. They are both chess pieces but not in the exact same mold. Have at it.

We have Reddick.

To me, they were just about carbon copies of each other.

Having both of them here now would be pretty cool but they didn't seem to wreak havoc together in AZ.

It feels like Simmons just picked up where Reddick left off.

Not sure reddick is like Simmons as Simmons can play safety and cover... reddick is mostly a pass rusher..

We made the right choice based on our need. Real question to me would be is if we passed on Herbert if he fell to 8

Brown was a good pick but man I wish Herbert would have fell.

Herbert wasn't available to us so it's kinda irrelevant...

We easily could’ve traded up with Detroit or especially NYG to get Herbert. Rhule was so confident in Teddy Bridgwater so he didn’t.

      Why do people think Bryce Young won this game yesterday?

      By Mage · Posted

      The last thing I will say, because I'm not going down this Bryce Young rabbit hole again, especially with said poster: You guys aren't the only people who see what you see.  Stop focusing on small minority of fans and voices.  The media has accepted Bryce Young isn't anything more than a game-manager at best.  You can literally look up "Bryce Young Franchise QB" and the only thing that pops up is that the Panthers MAY be viewing him as one, but no media outlet supports it.  The vast majority of fans accept he won't ever be the guy. It is such a stupid conversation for this reason.  You guys get so tripped up over such a small minority.  Bryce Young SUCKS.  We get it.   And feel free to continue to converse about it.  It is a discussion forum.  Have at it.  But can we just stop using words like "retard" to describe people who might not want to go as far as you all do?  Or acting like you have some unique ability to see things in the game that others can't?  There is no "mythos" around Bryce Young except in your head.

      Only thing I’ve seen that says it on is TWSN sports which is notorious for clickbait titles and in the articles it usually says something like this is a prediction not a report even though the title of the article sounds definitive.

      Sorry, someone probably said this, but I'm not going back over 9 pages 😃 QBs get an outsized amount of credit for wins and losses.  Bryce is the same way.   He was far from good except for a handful of plays.  That's not a recipe for success long term.  On the flip side, with the running game and defense playing so well, he's not being asked to do too much.  He doesn't look like "the guy."  I'm all for bringing in real competition with Bryce this year.
