Glass half full. I could respect it if the Panthers were actually a competitive franchise over the past 3 decades.

I wouldn't call it half full, I just don't take the first month of the NFL as gospel, let alone the first game. With the limited practices and off-season time teams have these days, things look completely different from week 1 to week 5.

If we came out and stomped Atlanta my expectations would be tempered the other way.

This is a completely new coaching staff with a new complicated offensive scheme, and receivers who aren't very good at getting separation.

Ive been saying for months that if we look good, it won't be until the second half of the season so we played about up to my expectations today? I'm not sweating it though. Everyone else seems to have the unrealistic expectations/overreactions.

I'm not worried about it until we look like complete poo into late October

This is purely a conversational and reactionary thread. You are using too much logic.

Im not even sure what we are playing for this year. We clearly lack talent on offense. We don't own our 1st.

 

I guess the growth and development of Bryce is why we watch the games this year. Not gonna lie I lose interest in the team if it gets real bad. I remember not even watching games anymore under Rhule.

 

Hopefully they at least be competitive this year.

Uh, experience. Don't underestimate it.

I just want to actually watch a top 5 offense for once. If we are going to lose a lot, at least be entertaining. Close games, big scores, flashy plays, fuggin something. We can't even get that. We've had the most lethargic, boring offense for 5 years now.

Oops. Ridelelelerler actually passed for over 100. Almost caught Young. 

Ridder led 2 drives that resulted in 4Q TDs. He racked up the elusive GWD. He is the better QB. Young will have to prove himself at some point.

Young may be the worst QB in the NFC South. We will see when he matches up against Mayfield.

The two #1 picks (Mayfield, Young) are the worst in the division. A 2nd and 3rd round QB are better. Who would have ever thought that?

Actually, you're drawing conclusions after one game. But, to answer your question, most analysts (if not all of them) understand that Bryce is a rookie. Likewise, most analysts picked the Saints to win the division, and the nine-year vet Carr is a big reason for that.

Yeah the experience under the Tepper era has been fantastic.

 

Gotta love the experience!

If you think that experience doesn't mean anything to young NFL players and coaches in new positions with more authority, I don't think you'll ever understand the dynamics of professional football, and team building in general.

Did you not see me mention the growth and development of Bryce Young in the post above?

 

Calm down Top Dawg!

You're the one who pooed my post talking about experience. You're also the one who began talking about experience as a fan (and other things like equating Young to Pickles). I think you're the one that needs to sit down, have a drink, and calm down.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By strato · Posted

      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.

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      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.

      Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.
