The last time a starting rookie QB won his 1st game was in 2002. No DJ Chark, a hobbled Theilen and probably Marshall. Horn goes out. It wasn't that bad. 3 TO's hurt. The O-line did better. 1st game for Sanders. It's gonna take time. There were some positives. But it looked like a rookie playing in a new system with new coaches and a lot of new faces.

Most of my concerns about Bryce were confirmed. He can at least take hits and appear ok (so far). Still have hope for the guy to develop if the team can just surround him with some WRs worth a damn. This loss only irks me more because it was against a division rival. 

 

On the bright side, I get to see what someone of my stature looks like in the NFL at the QB position.

If the mods are going to lock the ‘hot take’ threads then these idiotic ‘calm down guys’ threads should be locked too

 

anyone with an iq over 10 can see the hot garbage from preseason and know this team was going to be horse poo. We got beat by a ball control team, what’s going to happen when we face gun slinging QBs

 

Cam Jordan is going to annihilate Young

I'm a Panther fan but not necessarily a Reich, Young or Tepper fan.  I'm not necessarily a Reich, Young or Tepper hater either.  I do think they handled the trade for the #1 pick and drafting Young all wrong.  But I'm NOBODY.

 Listen, the OP is right.  There were a lot of positives from this game.  Honestly, overall, we performed much better than I expected.  We would have won this game I think if it wasn't for the turnovers.  For most of the game, we really did dominate.  It's not just one game.  It was the 1st for a team that except for a select few is a new team.

Calm down.  We have a tough stretch ahead.  If we come out of the 1st half of the season with any wins I'll be happy.

      if  ANYONE actually goes & looks at the FACTS on rookie Qb's after 2 full seasons as a starter in the NFL & they are still well below average do they rarely ever actually become top tier Qb's & instead most likely either do not recieve a second contract & or become life long backups...just saying

      So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre.
