Wether you look like him or not, Robbie is a good speedy, experienced WR that can contribute to the team. There is no reason to flat out cut him and still pay him. 

...thats one argument...but I don't see how this dude is going to help us....If I owned a McDonalds...he wouldn't get the job..

That's another one but the fact is, he was the 2nd best WR on the team, stat wise. Unless we'd be replacing him with someone better, it doesn't make sense, stat wise...

I hope Robbie rebounds this year.  He had 519 yards and a 6.5% drop percentage last year with the worst QB in football. 

Meanwhile Thomas had a whopping 118 yards and a 13.3% drop rate or Chubba who had 786 total scrimmage yards and 18.9% drop rate.  Chuba was a rookie tho so.

I just think that normally rational Huddlers have become irrational pertaining to Robbie. Perhaps if our team wasn't so bad last year, or if Robbie has had other similar years, I would understand the utter hate, but some of y'all are way over the top in my opinion.

Some of it is reasonable some isn't. The crap about how he talks or his hairstyle is not difficult to see through that's some of the same stuff we read with Newton. But Robbie's contract size and his repetition of being in the news cycle every time you look up is going to become a worn out act in any city with any fanbase. When you add in his tough time statistically last season it's reminiscent of the days like 2010 where we paid guys just for the sake of it and developed a culture of what can only be described as mediocrity. If he wants to change things the first step is to show fans what was missing last year and that begins on the field not on social media.

      Big changes coming

      I'd like to see the gameday chats come back, especially if you can get it mobile compatible and like those support chats that stay on the screen even when you move around the site. We could use them during CLTFC and Hornets games now too.

      There's a lot of truth here, but at the same time, that one year of production we might be paying for is actually paying for a development arc. And a lot of players have those. QB is the most complicated position in sports, hands down.  I'm not saying Bryce will make it past the hump this year, the odds are stacked against him just like any QB in the league that isn't already considered an elite player (and there are only about 5-8 of those at most). Arcs happen, and slow arcs happen, too. Sam Darnold seemed a wash up for the Jets and a horrible mistake. He was better with us, but still couldn't carry a bad team on his shoulders (or bad coaching). He went to Minnesota and got a shot under better coaching with more mature eyes to see the field. Something sparked and then he took his team to the Super Bowl and brought home a ring. Baker Mayfield had a similar arc, and may yet hit the big game. Hell, locally, Jake Delhomme had one. Or Bryce could flutter back down having already hit his peak. It happens. More often than any of us want to admit. We've paid for a full development arc for Bryce, but we've had it on rookie deal rates and that's been a savings that has let us build out the rest of the team, which was really needed. Maybe we end up diving back into the QB pool in the first round next season. Might be the guy, might not.  But he'll be set up with a better team that Bryce was when he started. Or maybe, just maybe, Bryce adds another seven TDs and loses four INTs on the season. Grabs three more wins and maybe a playoff win, maybe two. It's not completely impossible and that'd be great for the team and for him.  We're just going to have to tune in and see how it plays out. Probably won't be boring.

      I am holding out hope for a miraculous run this season. But you know the narrative around him is peak delusional when the Panthers social team can post this without even a hint of irony. Four years and almost 50 games into his career he still looks like he's never set foot in the weight room. Really?
