Say this Bryce thing doesn't work out... how far back is the Franchise set?

We shot our shot for the no.1 pick.  That is a 100× better than the Panther's history of ignoring our needs and going after D- free agents and afraid to trade up for Justin Herbert. 

If it fails it fails, but they were not afraid to try and put the pieces that were available this season to help it succeed. That makes all the difference.

You're kidding yourself if you think Peyton and Eli wouldn't have both gone #1 overall this year. Eli had elite physical tools and Peyton had everything you want except mobility.

Peyton's arm was never elite.  His vision and accuracy was.  If Young was 6'2" he would have been one of the cleanest prospects to come out in a while.  His weakness was his size, but that really wasn't much of an issue yesterday.

I truly can't tell if some of you are trolling or not.

If you aren't and this thread is serious, my God you are a dumbass. 

It was his first game in a hostile stadium after having limited preseason snaps with the best receiver on the team being a rookie, a middling TE and a mediocre RB corps where the best player put the ball on the ground.

WTF are some of you expecting?

Bryce to be a super star with no rookie mistakes taking this team to 14-2 and a Super Bowl birth year one. /jk

If Young would have been 6’ 2” the Bears wouldn’t have traded with us. But I have a feeling that at the end of the year they will wish they had of stayed at 1.

Why would you tank for Maye when Williams is in this class?  Williams is QB1 in this next class and it's not really that close.  

Williams has more red flags than a hurricane warning in Florida. He is already planting the seed that he will go back to USC if he is gonna be drafted by a team he doesn’t want to play for

These are all fair points. I think I was more concerned about Reich hire than BY. 
 

Frank Reich could very well be Frank Wrong.

Wouldn't have to tank and the QB class is much deeper than this one.  I hope Bryce works out, but several teams are getting some great QB prospects in next year's draft.  I was in the wait camp, but alas, it wasn't to be.

Haven’t we been saying that almost every year since Cam left?

Eli has elite physical tools??  Are you kidding me??? AR has elite physical tools, so does Fields, Lawerence, Mahommes, Rodgers for that matter but Eli??  wth!   And I never said they wouldn't have gone #1 in this draft.  I said lets see what we got and give him time.  Its one damn game and Bryce is Bryce lets see what we have.

Peyton's arm wasn't elite but it was good. Better than Bryce's. Don't let the old frankenneck version make you forget.

      D-Mo on FA & some of my general thoughts

      By TD alt · Posted

      After listening to Morgan's presser twice, I came away with some key beliefs. First of all, I don't think he's a bullshitter. What you see is what you get. When he says something, he means it.  The Teppers really have evolved as owners. Morgan has mentioned how they're easy to work with--a pleasure to work with a few times now. There seems to be a good relationship between all of them (and include Dave Canales on that). We'll see if it lasts. Yes, no one wanted to come to Carolina with the previous management, but that seems to have changed. The team signed arguably the top Edge, LB and OT on the market, two of them on pretty good deals and one on what I'll say is "not a bad one." And, credit Sunshine Dave "Flowers and Cotton Candy" Canales for helping to change the culture. Morgan mentioned getting guys--and I'm paraphrasing--that are not only great football players but great people. Don't look for us to be acquiring any James Pearce types anytime soon, just saying. We'll see if that holds true in the future. Dan Morgan really has set up the Panthers to take the BPA/BAP. He mentioned it at least a couple of times, and he doesn't seem pressured to pinpoint a particular position. He just wants quality players that will help the team. This is how it's going to be (to your joy or dismay, probably for as long as he's here), and personally I love it. Many of us know how Morgan was when he played: aggressive! That's what he's going to be when making acquisitions. He explicitly said it, and emphasized it. All avenues are open (think FA, waivers...the draft)! Personally, as long as it's controlled aggression and not reckless aggression, I love it.  On KP: "Mobility is big in this league."  He basically says if another QB is the BPA while drafting--we're going by our board, people--we're going to add them.        ...

      Canes vs Leafs 7pm

      By TLGPanthersFan · Posted

      Canes are so fascinating. Despite inconsistent defense and poor goalie play they keep winning.

      The team store should re-release Dan Morgan's jersey.

      By csx · Posted

      I like Morgan's approach but I'll wait for a few winning seasons before giving too much praise.
