You honestly can. You don't like it but you can take it. Others can't. Anything not glowingly positive sends them into a spiral.

We're 0-6. We are at or near the bottom of the league in most passing metrics. Bryce hasn't been able to demonstrate an ability to effectively throw beyond 29 yards. THAT is the flash that I want to see.

He hasn’t been accurate deep. That’s a different conversation from him not being able to do it. I’d rather him overthrow WRs than to be leaving the ball short. It’ll come.

I hope so but I need to see it. I'm out of hope.

And that's cool man that's great, but why do you constantly berate people who aren't out of Hope? 

That's literally the point of most of these arguments -- we're hopeful our QB can improve with our bad team. Seen it with Tua, seen it with Geno, seen it with Jared. Why can't it happen to Bryce? None of the height issues have been a problem and "kinda innacurate deep" is much more manageable. Matt Ryan made it to a superbowl.

It’s fun to seeing the “mods” of this place having a full blown tantrum and acting like children. I used to post here often. This is a great example of why I only really browse this site from a distance 99% of the time now. 
 

Good luck huddle. It’s gonna get a lot worse around here before it gets better! Lol

the mods here and Igo's complete lack of interest in the forum and improving it have really begun to turn this place to poo. Was so damn great back in like 2014, 2015. Now a far far cry from that. The team sucking doesn't help, sure, but no excuse for the other issues

There is hope and there is being realistic.

 

Hope is saying in the preseason we can win this division

Reality is looking at this roster and other factors and seeing a 7 win at best team

 

It serves no purpose to continue to simply sugarcoat poo for the sake of being some loyal fan or whatever.  At 0-6 you need to open your damn eyes

It won't. But several will.

He doesnt have a nfl level arm.  Throwing even moderately deep isnt going to be his bag going forward.  Ive accepted that.  Now whether we can win championships with it I am extremely skeptical of.  If you cannot consistently make all the throws the defense can just bottle you up like in the 2nd half for example

Amen. As for my positivity, I'm positive that there is still football left to play this season.

I think the ones that really need a safe space are linville and mr completely so they can just both pie eachothers post about how bad Bryce is, abject any level of nuance, until their hearts content. 
 

He’s clearly grown every single week.

      I believe in bryce...

      If you are an athlete or former athlete (myself?  Cornhole 2021-present; Disc Golf 2013-got a mega blister and had to retire; speed walking--every black Friday at Walmart 2003-2009) you know what it is to lose confidence.  Self-inflicted or not (in my view, a lot of 2023 was coaching and a lot of 2024 was confidence), he has confidence now. How fragile is it?  I think the light is on, the game slowed down, and he is ready to do his thing.  He seems to be "mobile in the pocket" instead of "running scared."   Last year, there were times when AT was out, Johnson gone, and all he really had was XL and Coker--a raw rookie with upside and an UDFA rookie.  TE was rarely a viable option. It reminded me of Benjamin and Funchess.   Moore had to step up.  This season, Bryce has weapons.  I expect XL to improve.  I expect TMac to help tremendously, and I think Coker will be solid.  Renfrow?  Horn?  bonuses.

      The Franchise guy Panthers 2025 deep dive overview

      His points are valid.  However, it seems a bit based on past performance and fails to take into consideration trends and conditions that might suggest growth in 2025.   For one, he breaks the team down by position and ranks them separately.  I guess that is a fair way to do it, but they are dependent upon each other. Last year, our DL sucked.  That impacts the rest of the defense.  With no internal pressure, the QBs simply step up to avoid the Edge rush.  I would have suggested that the internal DL is now featuring pass rushers and large people who can collapse the pocket.  Secondly, the LBs were not protected very well in 2024.  It is hard to see the holes and step up when a guard is in your earhole a second after the snap.  Finally, the defensive backs will be forced to make fewer tackles and they will be better in pass protection with a new and improved DL.    Canales made an interesting comment the other day, and I (from the outside looking in) feel the same way:  (paraphrasing) "I have never seen a better group of rookies."   I think the biggest concern is the learning curve.  How long before these rookies are ready?   I am bullish on this team.  I think they win 3 of their first 4 and get confident.  The get the fans behind them.  From there, they win 6 of the remaining 13.  If they stay injury free, they have an outside shot at the NFC south.

      Biiiiiig eyeroll on this.  First, Look at historical stats of the most recent historical great DBs.  I plucked 3, Revis, Sherman, and Norman (cuzz he was our guy).  Combined post age 30, there are TWO pro bowls between those 3 and wanna get this...ZERO seasons with 16 games started.  ALL missed time.  It is RARE that Corners survive that long in the NFL and its about time we started recognizing this fact.  Jaycee is a good bet because it hasnt been anything seriously devastating injury wise, and with his sample size he could and should be an incredible piece for the panthers through age 30. Jaire kinda flops on the other side, hes 28...so hes under 30, but he wants his payday before it comes up, hes also been injury prone lately.  Bulk of the contract will be on opposite side of 30.  Will both of these guys help us be better in 2026?  SURE!  No doubt, but the question is, will these guys help us past 2026...not sure. The investment isnt worth the risk, nor would the ROI be anywhere close to worth it.  Neither guy is moving us from a 6-8 win team to a 8-10 team, period. My point is we're in this state a 6-8 win team IMO and he projects us as  a 4-6 win team.  EVEN if we think Jaire or Ramsey will make us a 6-8 win team, it in NO WAY is worth the money or capital to move that much just to suck kinda less.
