Wish we had a few guys with more speed and who can stretch the field. The lack of ability to separate from most of Carolina's WRs is concerning, especially with Chark out.

Near 2017 end of season levels of bad. Cam Newton was incredible being able to make something out of those jags.

Hoping Bryce Young finds some of that magic too. 

Cam did still have Olsen and CMC that year, both of whom were over 100 receiving in the playoff game. The WRs sucked, especially after trading KB and Funchess getting hurt. Lol, makes me laugh saying that but KB was unfortunately still better than the crap we had at the end of that year.

It’s also funny to see you talk about the WRs like that because the optimism was overflowing not that long ago about our WRs this year. I still wish we did the Burns trade because with Kupp starting the year on IR, that 2024 Rams pick has a decent chance of turning into Harrison Jr. Bryce needs serious weapons. Heck, pick 36 could have netted us a TE like La Porta with a small trade up.

    • I feel the same way. Bryce hasn't proven himself to be so good that he would clearly lap anyone that we'd bring in the compete for the starting job. I think the team is actually afraid to do that. If Bryce goes down does anyone think Kenny Pickett is solid option to replace him?. We can control him for 2026 and 2027. The problem is 2028. Unless he takes a massive leap forward ability wise, I don't see how Carolina can justify paying B.Y. $50 million a year. So far, Bryce has not shown that he can CONSISTENTLY carry a team. He needs to be carried by a strong offensive line, running game, pass catchers and a respectable defense. If he's lacking any of those things I don't think we can make the playoffs in 2026/2027 unless the NFC South is as bad (or worse) than 2025. Unfortunately, athletes and agents have EGOs! When he has a chance for a 2nd contract his management team will probably insist on a "market deal" and feel insulted if they don't get one. That leaves a couple of options if his play hasn't significantly improved. 1) Let him walk and test the market. 2) Franchise him for the 2028 season if you're still not sure about what to do. 3) Extend him to a team friendly deal that pays him below the "current market" which would allow the team to continue to build a solid team to support him. 4) Over pay him and pretty much ruin any chance of becoming a consistent contender. The last option is the LEAST DESIRABLE ONE. The 2026 season is a pivotal season for Bryce and the Carolina Panthers. The success of the next 5-7 years could ultimately be decided on how well plays the next 2 seasons.  
    • Thank god BigKat can't buy it because I'd be gone immediately 
    • Drake Maye ended up putting almost 300 on them lol. Bryce was stunned from the beginning to end. I know that's an easy comp for the Bryce truthers but no one else put up those puny QB stats against them all season long.
