Can Bryce Young lead Panthers to a deep playoff run?

Couldn’t edit the above post but wanted to add I will say Young is doing things that Cam should have done that I don’t remember him doing much of. He took his off-seasons off. Young is at SMU throwing to his WRs which, damn right I like to see that. 
Then I think, a guy with his negatives to overcome, would do that type of stuff though.  He’d be used to it. Business as usual. He has done that to succeed his whole life. I definitely value that type of ‘want to’ in my football players

Atlanta's offseason has me scratching my head a bit.

I kind of think that Arthur Smith is looking to replicate what he had on the Titans. Strong running game and a game manager qb with some big play potential. Pair that up with a tough and active defense.

The answer is no.

Bryce Young may have 1 playoff win during his rookie contract.

As long as Young is the QB, the Panthers will need to have a championship defense/DC and an offensive play caller who can manage to average more than 2 GWDs per season.

Currently, the Panthers do not check any of these boxes.

A deep run? Going to depend on a lot of luck in regards to injuries plus who the first draw is.

Can he get us to the playoffs? The team nearly got there with an offense piloted by Ben McAdoo & Sam Darnold. The coaching staff and QB position have been upgraded, and there's an argument to be made that the defense was upgraded as well (at least from a coaching perspective). The WR room lost it's #1 WR but there's no doubt that the room as a whole has gotten more talented (Thielen, Chark, Marshall, Mingo, and Shenault alone is a solid overall room, nevermind whoever the 6th WR will be).

The division is winnable, that much is for certain. The Bucs are tumbling, full stop. The Falcons are hoping to run an offense similar to what Smith did in Tennessee but with Ridder/Robinson rather than Tannehill/Henry, but do they have a defense that can support that type of offensive approach? How the Saints look this season will dictate a lot.

Anything short of an undefeated MVP season will be seen has a failure 

Jk, that's what people were acting like when we drafted him , I got called a Karen and laughed off the board for daring to suggest we wouldn't be world beaters this season 

I just want him to develop confidence while we continue adding pieces, I don't know how long it will take to get back to the promised land , but I feel like he will be the one to lead us there

I think NFC Championship is a realistic possibility. The only teams I think we would have trouble beating are the Eagles/49ers. If we can avoid one of those teams before the NFC Championship game why not?

 

The NFC is pretty weak overall especially when it comes to QB play. If we were in the AFC this would be a obvious hell no. Maybe im overconfident, but I truly believe we can beat any team in the NFC besides Eagles/49ers.

Well damn!

    • Not exactly sure that is an honest assesment of the talent he had to work with that year. Olsen had over 1100 yards that season making the PB, Stewart had close to 1100 total yards also going to the PB. He had Kalil at C who went to the PB, Trai Turner at RG who also went to the PB, and Michael Oher at LT who played well enough that the Panthers offered him a new contract the following year. I wouldn't call that a trash OL. He also played with a defense that was stacked with talent as well.   "The thing we are doing better this time around is actually surrounding our #1 overall draft pick QB with talent vs. asking him to completely carry the offense. I just hope that effort is leading us to realize that the guy isn't even good enough to get carried." Please.... Did you not read the list of names Newton had to work with his rookie season. I guess you missed it so I will post it again for you... Steve Smith (PB), Greg Olsen (PB), Brandon LaFell, Ted Ginn JR, Deangelo Williams (PB), Jonathan Stewart (PB), Jordan Grossn (PB), Ryan Kalil (PB) on the offensive side and then he had Luke Kuechly (PB), Jon Beason (PB), Thomas Davis (PB), Star Lotulelei, Kawann Short ( PB ),Charles Johnson, Greg Hardy (PB ), Mike Mitchell, Josh Norman (PB)  For comparison, here is who Young had his first year.  Chuba Hubbard, DJ Chark, Jonathan Mingo, Adam Thielen, Hayden Hurst, Ikem Ekwonu, Chandler Zavala, Bradley Bozeman, Nash Jensen and Taylor Morton. Not a single PB player on the list and most of them aren't even playing any longer. Additionally, his HC was fired during the season and the defense was as bad as the offense.  You might not like the comparison but saying Newton had to completely carry the offense isn't exactly fair to the 4 pro bowlers on offense who played with him that year.
    • That's why I say we have to keep looking. Even if you believe Bryce is the guy, KP and Grier are not and who knows if King is anything more than a gimmick player, we should be active in improving our 2nd QB spot. Season ending injuries happen, and you don't just want to roll over and give it up. How many starters have we seen come from the ranks of backup? Having 2 potential starting QBs is one of the best problems we could have. 
    • Eh, it’s more on how bad the refs are. Some of these calls against the canes are no calls
