Peter King - Young is one smart guy

I'd have preferred Richardson or Stroud. Hell, maybe even to have been able to trade down and take Levis. 

If Young works out, great. We are banking on him not just breaking the mold, but shattering it and tossing it in the trash. Average arm, average release, 5'10, above average processing, average mobility. Even comparing him to Steph Curry is a stretch because Curry is 6'3 and is an outside shooter.

My job here isn't to make anyone miserable. But you don't get to start at Alabama without being able to call protections and seeing an overload blitz isn't difficult when you recognize the alignment. 

Josh wanted Stroud. His breakdowns made that obvious. 

Well it didn't happen. Time to deal with it and quit whining/grumbling.

Or don't. Stay miserable. Stay insufferable. You do you.

All I read is that I watched 3 mins of highlights and that I think I’m smarter than 90% of the NFL heavy hitters

And ihope we keep having them throughout the year.

I wouldn't mind it if it translates to wins but it's a long ways off until we find that out 

I remember people blowing smoke up teddy baker and Sam's asses before the season started too. I'm just jaded as a mother fuger until I see it work on Sundays

You people are absolutely miserable. Why are you fans of the Panthers? You sure as hell aren’t because it is fun. 
Stop whining. Get over it.

Saying this with so much certainty is hilarious when nobody on here has had a conversation with the man to know for sure. He was extremely complimentary of Bryce in his breakdown of him and that was when he broke down one of his worst games vs CJ’s best. 
 

In one of his columns leading up to the draft, Peter King even said Josh was telling people in the fall how much he loved Bryce and thought he’d be a great NFL QB. This is another reason I can’t wait for the draft confidential to come out, so we can squash some of the ridiculous narratives folks have on here about who was/wasn’t on board with Bryce, when all indications point at it being unanimous for him by the end of the process.

this is also based largely on comments McCown made before he became a coach here and before he started collaborating with other coaches and scouts to evaluate and interview all of the prospects. it could very well be that his opinion changed the further that he got into the process.

and it's not just these guys who are recognizing and even gushing about what Bryce Young did in his second game as a true freshman saying that what he did was some next level poo, and that's what you can expect from him. We have very informed, educated, and experienced people saying and recognizing this in Young....and then we have people like @CPcavedweller saying this kind of thing:

Y'all are slobbering over recognizing an overload blitz? My god.

Oh fine, ya got me. So happy our QB can recognize a blitz and slide protection. Everyone! Everyone! Make way, the next 5'9 Payton Manning hath arrived!

Seriously. It's one story about a team aligning in such a way it can only be one thing at that level. It's logical deduction and it's an easy one to make at that. 

so either CPcavedweller is right and these people talking about Young either don't know poo because, as cpcavedweller has intimated ...it's not a big deal because every QB who puts on a bama jersey does this kind of thing right out of the gate and it's not unusual for any QB to do this. 

or

they are correct and Bryce Young mentally is on another very impressive level.

I'm skeptical he even watched highlights.  Who watches Bryce Young and comes away thinking he has average mobility?

Well, to be fair. Maybe he was watching in slow motion. lol

 

I'll admit I gave Bryce a hard time during the draft process. But it was mostly just his size, not in how he played the game. The kid is exciting. He is just wee. And that does scare a lot of us.

The hype for this kid is getting unreal. Like above Burrow level. 

and it's not all coming from us. 

maybe they all know something that some here are reluctant to recognize. the guy has off the charts potential.

If you mean just on the huddle or in Panther fandom, it would have been the same if Stroud or Richardson had been the pick. It's what fans do. If you mean outside the huddle, then maybe it's the NFL hype machine or as @rayzor said, the experts might see something to get hyped over.

Now if Levis had been the pick, you'd probably see a lot more doom and gloom posting going on.

    • I had started typing my post hours ago and didn’t finish it and just came back to finish it, posted it, then saw yours and saw we were pretty much saying the same thing - even the games that stick out to us most.  I don’t think a lot of people remember that SF playoff game, but I felt like I had just got mugged in broad daylight.  I remember them calling Mitchell for unnecessary roughness, and then I remember watching Boldin take a super late cheap shot, dead in front of the ref and then showing him watching the whole thing in replay…  the refs let them have a fuging field day and didn’t do jack poo, but if we so much as breathed the wrong way it was fuging 15 yards.  Each team playing under two completely different sets of rules.  poo hurt.  I was enraged.  I’ve never went back to watch either that game or SB50 and never will.  fuging robbery.
    • I’ve said it a million times since, but it’s impossible to keep them from affecting the game.  In SB50, they literally took the game from us, and they did it early.  Cotchery’s no-catch?  The miraculous amount of times we converted for a first down only to have it suddenly called back make it a 3rd down and 15+ against the best defense in the league that specialized in rushing the passer and man coverage on the back end?  And you do that enough times, you kill the morale and confidence of the team you’re doing it against.  It’s telling the one team “you can do whatever with impunity” and the other “you can’t do whatever they’re allowed to do.”  It changes the aggression level.  It essentially neuters one team and allows the other to do whatever the fug they want.  Imagine you call the police for help and they get there and tell you to sit still while the other party beats the poo out of you and you can’t defend yourself.  That’s what the officials do.  There is no way to avoid them affecting the game.  And more often than not, it’s the most subjective calls they use to do so.  Even in SB50…  you saw the Broncos commit more egregious penalties than anything we did, and barely any of it was called.  Their OL was holding all fuging game and the refs did nothing.  We already had our work cut out for us against two future HOF edge rushers and the refs played to their advantage with that.  From what I remember, both Oher and Remmers were called for holding at various times and their hands were in the INSIDE of the defender.  It was garbage, but all by design. Also, if there is any video of it anywhere, go look at what the refs did against us back in 2013 against SF.  The fix was in there too.  They stepped in early and often and ensured we knew we were not allowed to play with the same aggression or intensity SF was.  It was disgusting as well. at this point, I hope Vince McMahon, errr, I mean Goodell just finally scripts us to win it, because this poo is not won via competition or off merit.
    • You can go back to the New York Knicks somehow getting Patrick Ewing.  I saw a story where they place the New York Knick card in the freezer right before the drawing.  It was simple.  Show everyone the cards are undetectable to the human eye.  All they had to do was grab the coldest card. IMO ever since Goodell took over the NFL it has been fishy.  Patriots winning the SB after 9/11, New Orleans after Katrina and Peyton Manning's going away gift against us. The terrible calls during that game were blatantly one sided.  New England should have been stripped of their first 3 SB when they were caught spying on the other team in their SB wins.  I think the evidence against the Patriots was so damning Goodell felt it could ruin football and they brushed it under the table.   In the 2004 SB, How did we go from practically no yards in the first Quarter to setting a record in the 3rd Qtr.  Dan Henning changes the game plan.  IMO probably the greatest half time adjustment of all time.
