It's not "pretty clear", you've just already come to that conclusion without really any supporting evidence.  This theory completely falls apart if Bryce plays on Sunday.

Fun times on this forum when the mods are more insane than the average poster.

I try to tell myself people arent actually dumb enough to genuinely believe this kind of thing.

They always wind up proving me wrong.

You win first and figure everything else out later.  If he wins, he saves his job, regardless of what happens with Bryce.  And this also affords Bryce a soft landing versus being benched.  I don't think there's any conspiracy about it... think it's pretty clear what is happening.

You think Reich's plan is to ride Andy Dalton to the promised land? Come on.

If this was his plan he wouldn't have named Bryce the starter before training camp and let the competition play out. Tepper isn't going to want his #1 pick who we traded a ton for riding the bench so Reich can take us to the playoffs at 8-9 and get blown out in the wild card round. That's not going to save his job.

Tepper didn't pay this "all-star" coaching staff to not be able to develop our #1 overall pick QB. If Reich benches Bryce Young, he's admitting that he either a) made a huge mistake drafting him, and/or b) is unable to develop him. Which is EXACTLY what he was brought in to do!

Regardless of what you think of Bryce (it's pretty clear you've never been a fan of the pick; probably a Levis guy) the notion that Reich would have him fake an injury in order to have an excuse to bench him just doesn't make sense.

Young fails, Reich fails. It's as simple as that. Frank knows this, so why would he NOT want him on the field, even if it means going through some growing pains? He's not going to fool Tepper by continually finding a new excuse to keep our #1 overall QB on the bench.

The Hornets have sucked to the point where I can barely watch 10-15 games a season before checking out.

 

I never thought that would happen with the Panthers. I’ve watched every game unless it wasn’t broadcasted since 95’. But if we have another losing season AND Bryce doesn’t show flashes of greatness…

 

I might have to take a break.

There is a thing called Adrenaline

Brady Christensen finished out the first game with a bicep injury then was placed in season-ending IR the following day. 

Two Andy Dalton doesn't give them a better chance to win. He is even less mobile and hasn't looked good since AJ Green faded in Cincy due to injury. 

Today was a walkthrough, tomorrow is a practice session.

Yeah, it does fall apart if he plays.  But the fact he sat out of practice with an injury that no one noticed during the game isn't the least bit suspicious?

And I'm insane, even though we've seen guys mysteriously IR'd for years as our playoff window closed.  And we've even heard players come out and say they weren't injured but the team (and not just our organization), designated them injured.  But yeah, I'm "insane" and "dumb" for thinking they're trying to save face bc Bryce, the #1 overall pick, appears to be in over his head, is struggling, and Reich's offense and playcalling look like complete ass after assembling an all-star staff and a complete hype campaign from the offseason is going down in flames. 

Enjoy the kool-aid, fellas.

Lol, how some of you folks get through day to day life with all the BS that happens to us all is beyond me. Every thing that happens with the Panthers creates a frenzy of negative posting. It is incredibly tiresome.

Being cynical is completely warranted considering what we have had to put up with as a fan base. Pizza parties don’t work.

Sat out a walk through at that. 
 

Those walk through practices are really tough on the shoulder….ahem I mean ankle…that was the injury right coach?

Like most conspiracy theories, this one makes little to no sense.

You don't think Frank Reich realizes that if Bryce fails his career as a head coach is over? What would be the point of trying to hide him like this when even a playoff berth with Andy Dalton at QB wouldn't save Reich in the long run if Bryce ends up being a bust.

Bruh, have you watched the Panthers? Bryce is struggling in this disaster offense.   Things are going exactly how you don’t want them to go.  It’s how you ruin QBs.   Next up is Seattle where you can’t even hear yourself think. 

and yes, if Bryce fails they are all done.   So why ruin him like this.

      shough vs tmac off rookie of the year

      By MasterAwesome · Posted

      Ok fair to judge only his starts.  But you do acknowledge that going from "he's waaaay above league average in a number of categories" to "here's a single stat where he's above league average (not "waaaay") and another where he is exactly at the league average" is a pretty significant backpedal, no?  I'm guessing he's probably in the ~10th range for completion percentage too if we're only looking at starts (I'm too lazy to isolate his starts and do the calculations), so I'll grant you that one too.  But I don't think completion percentage is all that meaningful as a standalone stat if it isn't bolstered by good TD%, Y/A, etc. On that note, for how much people like posting Passing Charts in here (*cough* CRA) - if you peep Shough's passing charts, he hasn't completed a single 20+ yard pass in the past 3 games combined.  His last one was in Week 13 against the Dolphins, which was a single pass of 24 yards.  I just want to be consistent in how we apply our standards - I think it's always been warranted to criticize Bryce for it (even dating back to his rookie season), but do we suddenly not care about that with Shough? And yeah I did acknowledge that Saints' fans have reason to be excited about him and complimented his poise, which is giving my props.  Still not sure I agree that he looks better than a "ton" of QBs nor do I think you or anyone have really demonstrated that.  I think you are generally one of the more reasonable level-headed posters which is why I'm confused at what I consider to be rather hyperbolic language about Shough.

      The Case for(or Against) Drafting/Signing a TE

      By shaqattaq · Posted

      I don't disagree with you, but want to point out that Tremble's strong suit has always been blocking. Case and point: on Horn's 25 yard run, he lays down not 1 but 2 nice blocks...and is looking for #3! https://www.panthers.com/video/jimmy-horn-jr-s-25-yard-run-gives-panthers-red-zone-access-on-first-drive

      It is a popularity contest.  The selection does have meaning though. It is also 1 of the criteria that is considered for the HOF. The game does not have any significance. The team hasn't been to the playoffs in nearly a decade. That's why they don't get primetime national coverage. To the victors go the spoils.
