I didn’t want to joke because of all the uptight people in here but I chuckled when he wasn’t in the picture. I’ll add in a picture someone sent me after I poked him about his Celtics.

Save this pic. You'll need it for when he's all-pro.

I think they will eventually.    I never noticed them with Kyler Murray and he's the same height 😉

 

Fingers Crossed. Although, I do believe if we become a more consistent winner, which seems likely, (Fingers Crossed) the jokes will be more playful anywho.

Veteran Andy Dalton got the first reps with the first-team offense in Monday’s OTA practice. Rookie Bryce Young ended up getting more of them.

Via Joseph Person of TheAthletic.com, the first overall pick in the draft got the majority of the snaps with the first-team offense during his first full-squad offseason practice.

It’s not unexpected. Coach Frank Reich recently said Young would end up getting more of the snaps with the first-team offense.

The situation points to Young likely being the Week One starter. At some point, the goal will be to get him ready. Which means that, at some point, he’ll need to get all of the first-team reps.

It’s a tough balance for a team. One one hand, the player must be prepared. On the other hand, other players might think the rookie is being given things he has not earned.

The reality is that Young earned the starting job when the Panthers made him the first overall pick in the draft. The job now becomes getting him ready to do that which the Panthers believe he can do; otherwise, they wouldn’t have picked him.

He didn't "earn" the starting job by being the number one pick. He has been given the job. Now he has to earn it or, as Tepper has shown, he will move on by 2024.

Yeah, everyone knows he is going to play 100% of the snaps this year. No use wasting reps on QBs that will never see the field. lol

It was the first day of OTA's, there isn't a single QB in the league who is taking 100% of the first team reps in OTA's, or even in training camp, you have to get the backup reps with the first team in camp since they won't get any during the regular season unless the starter needs a day off in practice to rest an injury.

He took the majority of the snaps with the first team, he's literally only the QB2 in name and first snap of practice only right now, besides that he's already the QB1 and even Dalton admits as such.

The real question isn't if he'll start week 1 or even when he'll be officially given the QB1 label, it's whether or not the team will vote him as a Captain in his rookie year.  Normally I'd say that is 50/50, but seeing as we replaced our entire offensive lineup outside of the OL, I think he has a great chance at getting voted by the team.  

I think on offense, Moton is the only player locked in as a Captain, after that, Young is probably the only player that makes complete sense to be in the running, who else would be?  Bozeman, Ickey, and Thielen maybe?

No thanks Brees only had 1 SB. And im never going to want a Panther to be like a Saint.

 

I mean, yeah, who in their right mind wants Bryce to turn into Bees, and become a HOFer with a SB win? That's just crazy talk there. I tell ya what.

Firstly, what you quoted was a response to WUnerland who wrote "Oh just give him all the snaps jfc."

 

Secondly, I agree with your thinking. It is going to be interesting to see if after TC Bryce is selected as a Captain? That is something I hadn't thought about.

 

Edit to add; I don't think Cam was selected as a Captain his first year. So just adds more intrigue to this years Captains calls.

 

I think Dalton got first reps to show the rooks how to go about leading your team. Getting them into and out of the Huddle. All those little things a good Vet QB can do.

      That might balance out because apparently the Texans O-line is ass. He did manage to throw for almost 300 yards the last two weeks though.

      How many Qbs can you name better than Bryce Young?

      By frankw · Posted

      Don't forget that Rhule actually took Tepper's offer to the Giants and they balked. He was just seeking the big payday which should have been a red flag. I have no idea how much time Tepper spends within the Panthers building. I do know that he in the past has been too much involved. He supposedly held weekly meetings with Reich. Then after firing Reich Tepper he held a press conference where he did virtually all the talking and made it about himself. Before that Tepper went out of his way to bloviate to the press about how he spoke to Bryce Young months before the draft and directly told him he wanted him to be a Panther. Then he went to the well of his selling point about Bryce being a point guard and we wouldn't need to invest in elite weapons. The guy thinks and talks like he knows what he's doing. At the end of the day the franchise has been in the gutter in large part due to he and his wife's involvement. It is what it is. Appreciate the convo.

      Unlike most of you, I do not assume the FO thinks he is beyond repair.  For the first time since 2017 the Panthers have a chance to be in the playoffs. One more game will tie them for the most wins since 2018, 2 more wins will put them at 8 wins - the most in 8 years.  Hate all you want but a big part of that success has come from Bryce. He got them in the hole with Miami but he got them out of it as well and was a big part of that win. Against Dallas, he played very well throughout the game plus he converted on a 4th down in the final minutes putting them in FG range for the win. He may not have had a good game against the Packers but he did convert on two 3rd down conversions in the final minutes to help seal the win and of course the Falcons game was his best yet. Tepper likes him and they have a huge investment in him as well. You don't just throw that away unless you have something concrete lined up behind him - which I just don't see.
