I think the vast majority supports the team. The team, not a specific draft pick. You can be disappointed with the pick and still support the team. Not sure why you are working so hard at this narrative that people are not being honest, it’s a bit odd.

That was a long empty whole lot of nothing u wrote. Lol

I said some ppl wouldn’t support our QB the way some didn’t support Cam in my thread.
Ppl like u were upset at me for saying it. Now that someone say they wouldn’t, u wanna change the debate to “supporting the team”. That was never the debate. Keep moving if u have trouble with comprehension buddy…

Feel bad for Chris 

He has really been through it the past few years 

That treatment for stage 4 throat cancer in January sure has taken a toll on him 

 

My best friend and fellow Panthers fan had a run-in with throat cancer two years ago and it was horrible to watch, even as a healthcare professional. And now he just found out it’s back….goddamn it. Wish him good luck, fellow fans, he’s going to need it.

Will do. My bro-in-law had it a few years back. The doc believed it was caused by the HPV when he was younger. He still seems to be doing fine after a couple of years though. He goes to the doc every few months now for a checkup. Your friend must be going for his regular checkups, and it's good that they caught it. Having good doctors is extremely important. The radiation and chemo are rough, but as long as they caught it in time, it's better than the alternative.

If they do I’m out until he proves successful in the NFL, which I doubt will happen.  

I didn't even know that that was a legitimate way to think for a fanatic, but I...guess that it is.

Honestly it sounds like the tact of an immature fan but that's just my opinion.

I don't like this take. Those that spout it overlook the idea that Houston's supposed love of Young could all be smoke too. If it's lying season for one team, it's lying season for all of them. And if Stroud and Young are a 1a and 1b scenario with very little difference other than size like some claim, why wouldn't Houston be happy to just sit at 2 and take whichever is still available and keep their picks?

because if they're 1a and 1b in the eyes of the panthers and houston offers you a stupid amount of draft capital to move up one spot you do that???

I hope so, but I find it hard to trust any info that comes out right now.

I will be happy with either Stroud or Young, although Stroud is my preference.  That being said, The fact that several reports are coming out of the Panthers organization, in early April, saying that Young is the guy actually makes me think that Stroud is the guy.

Read the post again. The question wasn't why wouldn't the Panthers trade with the Texans, it was why would the Texans give up picks to trade with the Panthers.

You're assuming both teams are fine with taking either guy. Maybe the Panthers are and the Texans aren't.

I'm not assuming they are. I'm questioning this belief a lot of others have that the rumors about the Texans being sold on Young are true and can't possibly be lies. Once again, it's lying season after all. The Panthers aren't the only team that lies to hide who they're interested in. It would have been a lot cheaper for the Texans to move up to 1 from 2 than it was for the Panthers to do so if the Texans were truly sold on any particular player. So, why didn't they? Could it be they're not sold on anyone yet? Could it be they think the guy they want will be there at 2 regardless of Young or Stroud going at 1? Perhaps they prefer Richardson or Levis. We just don't know and won't find out since we're just fans on a message board. All this assuming that the Texans love Young and will take the "bait" and trade with the Panthers because Stroud fans want it to happen is just jurassic park deal with it GIF

    • 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.
