Like the player, afraid the contract is going to be too big when there were solid cheaper options out there.

I'll also be completely honest... I very much dislike the idea of paying any RB decent money 4 months after we traded CMC away, I understand getting the picks back, but I'm still angry about that trade, would have loved to give a rookie QB CMC to throw to as his safety valve.

Or unlike half this fan base some people actually watch all teams play and not just Carolina 

Hi I watch a lot of teams play.

I know a lot of HBs struggle with pass protection and struggle with catching out the backfield.

A lot of those halfbacks don't run as well, nor have the production Sanders does. 

That's the difference. Sanders is good at football and has those areas as areas as of weakness. And still had 50 catches on 64 targets last year.

Yeah he’s a legit runner never said he wasn’t. He’ll be a good 2 down back for us given his strengths and Reich’s scheme

He puts up close to the states he did in Philly it's one of those things you learn to live w/

i.e. D.J. and press coverage.

Fair enough. Just optics with your initial reply makes it seem like you were just criticizing the player.

I'm excited to have him on the team, but I agree he's not a "bellcow" whatever that terms worth.

      PFF ranks the 2025 starting QBs

      By Seltzer · Posted

      I personally think you are trying to talk yourself into circles here... It's ok to say Bryce played incredible the last 5 weeks... I know there are plenty of people on this board who desperately need the doom-and-gloom narrative, but I genuinely question how much NFL QB play some of these people really have watched when they still question him being the unquestioned starter for next year...  Again, that being said, no one is crowning him at all. I think Bryce is one of the best stories going into 2025 bc his season last year was so outlandishly unprecedented. It's totally fair to personally not believe in Bryce. Plenty of sports "journalists" need to write stories, and that's an easy narrative path... But I think that actual people in the know rank Bryce much higher. That's the fun thing about sports... we shall see!

      Regardless of how we got here, any rational fan should be excited by how well Bryce played down the stretch. Anyone not happy about that level of play either doesn't know what they're looking at, or they're still trying to drive tired narratives. Obviously, Cam had an all-time rookie season, and I'm not putting the two in the same basket yet, but as someone who has watched every snap of Panthers football since the start of the new millennium (Im old), Bryce was playing at a higher level at the end of 2024 than Cam was at the end of 2012 (his 2nd season). Cam continued to develop into MVP form, something Bryce has to prove, but as someone who watched both (and will stan for Cam always), Bryce was playing at a higher level to end year 2 than Cam did.  Go watch the film if you dont believe me. None of that means anything for the future. But the people who said BY9 couldnt play in this league are wrong.   That being said, the only thing that matters is this year. #20 is perfectly fair IMO going into the season. I mean think about it, how would you rank him??!  His in-season turnaround is one of the wildest things I've ever seen... how do you rank a guy who looked like a massive bust in September and by January was consistently playing at a top 10 level? My excitement level is pretty damn high heading into this season. There were throws from the Chiefs game onward where Bryce had Drew Brees levels of anticipation. Im excited to see what he can do with a full deck on offense, something we really never gave Cam. Really hope and expect Bryce to move up this list this season.

      Not really, the only QB's (other than Anthony Richardson) ranked below him are new to their teams as a placeholder starter or drafted in 2024 or 2025, not a lot of gymnastics to get there. It's not about how many that is, if it's 20, 12, or 2... It means there isn't a QB who's team has committed to them for the long term right now that they have ranked below Bryce. That's not a great thing.
