Everybody is riding Jarret like a bad mule right now, but I really just think that he needs a couple games to shine. If you put him in the starting slot instead of Moose, I think he could be a great possesion WR. Moose is too old to me to still be a viable threat on the field, even though I know he deserves it. Jarret just needs some time on the field and a bigger role to become great.

Martin wasn't just activated bc of his Wr skills, he made a few blocks that kept Stewart going and was also used on ST. Not every WR makes plays by catching the ball. I was watching him a good bit during the game and he made the most out of the oppertunities that were give to him.

How many you feel he should have a bigger role on Sunday? They brought him in from the practice squad and he only has 1 catch? If they aren't gonna use him then what's the f'n point! Geez...

Seriously? Don't you think it would help a little bit if he actually had time to learn the play book first? This is just like all the people that claimed that Matt Moore should have been starting much earlier in 07 even though he wasn't in Panthers TC and still only knew a portion of the play book when he did start later in the season. This is real life, not Madden.

He's had the same playbook since practice squad, my point being if you bring a guy in at his position to fill in, why not give him a chance to catch more or run some kickoff/punt returns? We suck at ST might as well give yet another guy a chance to run it back.

    • 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?
