Bryce Young might not be able to see over the offensive lineman’s hip pads.

If we are even considering him I would be kind of upset. Matt Corral is bigger and more mobile. Yes, Bryce is more accurate based on what we have seen but running RPO, bootlegs and PA does not always require pinpoint passing. I feel Corral would be a cheaper more feasible option if ut came down to it. I am not saying he is the best QB option at this point but I do not trust BY's longevity at all.

The more i watched him, the smaller he looked and played. I never really was interested, even when the hype train was full force 2 years ago, and I was completely uninterested the more I watched last season. I really hope our staff feel similarly because I just don't have a good feeling about how his game translates to the pros, and its not just his height.

If he's there at #9 you probably take him (assuming you don't sign Carr in FA), but you absolutely don't move up for him.

If you put his brain / skillset in Stroud's body, Chicago would be pawning Fields off to whoever wanted to take him 'cos that #1 pick would be locked down.

Might as well call it a RB push now. 

They gotta change that poo. A QB sneak is completely unstoppable getting a yard or less now. Maybe when teams just start completely selling out and lining up an OL behind the QB for the push the NFL will finally put a stop to the ridiculousness. It's just a fuging rugby scrum.

What's going to happen is someone is going to get seriously hurt and snap some legs when that pile goes sideways. I can tell you from experience being on the bottom of that pile with your knee bent sideways that is not something I would ever wish on anyone. 30 years later and it still isn't right.

It kinda surprises me that owners aren't pushing for the change. They can't like seeing their most valuable and usually highest paid position on the team sandwiched in a melee but as long as it's legal coaches are going to do it because it's unstoppable.

Especially for the linemen. Because they are so low and have to have their feet dug in so well, there really isn't a whole lot of flexibility for them. A couple thousand pounds of beef falling sideways is going to end up hurting 4 or 5 guys at once. They'll end up stopping it once they're having to cart off multiple players with Jason Sehorn like injuries. I remember watching that as he went airborne and almost puked.

The roughest injury I ever saw on live television was Willis McGahee's knee in college. I was in college and a bunch of us were watching that game and I saw it and just started screaming. Like everybody y'all gotta watch this poo and now because they're only gonna show this replay once when they realize how ugly this is. I still can't believe he made a successful recovery from that.

I guess Marcus Lattimore's injury at South Carolina looked similarly and that one ended him.

      yeah, but the actual jersey Bryce Young is wearing is not the same jersey you are buying from Fanatics.

      Ravens release Justin Tucker.

      By bandu · Posted

      i just feel like i read this he says she says poo all the time over & over again  on the internet  TV  work ,in public & then i think back to myself oh what a sick slandermongering world we live in now. ts just like those National Enquirer magazines you find in the grocery store at the checkout counter which are nothing more than complete & utter BS  & more often than not when you assume something then you make an ASS out of U & ME. so chill &  let the courts do their job & if he is guilty well he is guilty  LOL either or this has nothing at all whatsoever to do with Carolina Panthers football

      XL makes a list of sophomore breakout candidates

      By Captain Morgan · Posted

      Former league executive and current NFL.com analyst Marc Ross recently named his top second-year breakout candidates for the upcoming campaign. Ross includes Legette, who may be helped out by his team's latest first-round selection. He writes: Legette had a slow start to his NFL career, catching 49 passes for 497 yards and four touchdowns last season. Some of the struggles can be tied to his own growing pains -- he had eight drops on 81 targets, according to Pro Football Focus -- but he had also had to navigate the quarterback shuffle between Bryce Young and Andy Dalton early in Dave Canales' first season leading the Panthers. Canales recently said he believes Carolina has a DK Metcalf-like talent in Legette, who had foot surgery this offseason but was cleared to resume work in early April, and that having a full offseason alongside Young, who took a significant step forward in 2024, could lead to a breakout result in 2025. I anticipate it will also help that Carolina invested another first-round pick in a wide receiver, Arizona's Tetairoa McMillan, to complement Legette in the pass game. McMillan's presence, however, could take some pressure off Legette—who may be able to roam around in a more natural playmaking role. With the 6-foot-4 All-American likely to take on the bulk of the volume from Young, Legette should have some cleaner shots to break out downfield and in the box score.     https://pantherswire.usatoday.com/story/sports/nfl/panthers/2025/05/06/panthers-wr-xaiver-legette-top-breakout-candidates-2025/83475176007/?taid=681a4610ede05d000149b376&utm_campaign=trueanthem&utm_medium=trueanthem&utm_source=twitter
