Yes, todays performance actually reminded me of 2010. I was too young in 01 seeing as I was born in 96 I wasn't really watching football yet

The '01 Panthers couldn't seal the deal; MANY of their games were winnable.  The players finally gave up in the last quarter of the season though.

We're all very aware of this. But good they are not. It's like an in person version of our game threads. 

I didn't say they were good, just that they are better than the Panthers.

Being better than the Panthers is not something to brag about 90% of the time for the last 27 about to be 28 years.

Rookie QB, new coaching staff, lots of new players, about what I expected. I am not really bothered by it. We will just have to wait a few games to see what developes. 

 

Bryce learned one thing today.  Playing at Alabama where your team almost always has more talent than the other team is vastly different than playing in the NFL.

Did Cam Newton have elite accuracy?

No, and there are others who don't have elite accuracy. What he did have was a once-in-a-lifetime body that carried him for...a grand total of FIVE seasons. He started breaking down in year six BECAUSE he didn't have elite accuracy. He was great...at running. When he lost that, he was no longer great.

Young looks like he will have a solid career if he can get with a team with some weapons.

As far as pure talent, Young just doesn't have Drake Maye's God given gifts.

My fear is Young is what he is. He's not 6'4 240 with great running ability. His ceiling is much lower than the other guys so his decision making has to be off the charts. Sure he can improve but I'm afraid only to a level that's not franchise changing. I remember Cams first game thinking wow the future is bright. Not so much with young.

    • Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
