Frank Reich also has no excuses to not perform well anymore too. Outside of having Andrew Luck, he's been handicapped with poor QBs. He now has the staff that he has chosen, the QB he has chosen, and an owner who has given him all that he needs to succeed. If he doesn't succeed here in Carolina, he may never get a chance at a HC gig anymore in the future.

probably, and then factor in the schedule....it sort of sets up for a slow start for rookie QB, new team, etc.   

Before the bye 4 of the 6 are on the road.  4 of the 6 had winning record and all return their QBs.  The are 2 our divisional games but the standard divisional factor probably doesn't really apply there given the newness of the teams involved. 

Missed a sentence in your post.

He's had good QB's, but they were so long in the tooth they couldn't overcome a lacking roster.

Rivers and Ryan are edge HOF guys, but they both needed to be paired with strong defenses and great running games to succeed.  Didn't work.

Funny thing I heard the other day, and no clue where I heard it, but word was Shanny was going to pull Rivers in if SF made it to the Super Bowl last year.  Would have been a WILD story.

Week 1 is also the weirdest week in the NFL.  Bad teams fool people.  Good teams look bad.  It’s the one week I would never wager on. 

however, the overall starts have been slow.  

3-4-1

3-5

5-3

5-3

2-6 

Very Fox/Ron ish.  Gets it going on the backend most of his time.  Wasn’t afforded that opportunity in 22 though. 

its the best week to wager though, the books don't have the data/analytics they use to set lines.

A Steve Wilks, AR, Foreman combo sounds so much better then a Reich, Young, Sanders combo

Yea...Wilks is going to groom and develop AR into a franchise QB...lol. The amount of nonsense I read on this board is crazy. How many athletic QBs are drafted into the NFL and provide glimpses of shock and awe through their playstyles? And how many of those QBs fizzle and flame out? AR would be on a worse trajectory than Trey Lance if he was drafted here with Wilks

We very likely still have DJ Moore in that scenario as well.

That being said, I still think that we made the right decision by stirring everything up, even if it means we take a step back immediately. Wilkes, AR, Foreman seemed like a safer, same old same old, train of thought to me.

You realize that Belichick was a defensive coach right. He didn't develop Tom Brady. Rivera didn't develop Cam. That's what QB coaches do.

I doubt very seriously we would have drafted AR if we kept Wilks. 
Seems like Wilks wanted Stroud. At least that was supposedly part of his interview.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By Tepper's Chest Hair · Posted

      Sometimes its fun to read the threads/posts.  The panthers could literally hire a groundskeeper and we'd have a thread "improving the field for no other reason to prop up Bryce Young".  Apparently no move is ever done to actually make the team better.  All a conspiracy to just focus on Bryce Young. Or suddenly daydreaming and reminiscing about Sam Darnold when he was hated more than Bryce Young.  Its really fun to do a message board search about Darnold during that time period.   Or thinking there is just a tree that grows QB, and you can just easily go up and pluck one.

      Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying.

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
