Mingo is a raw rookie WR that isn't even coming off a dominant college career.  That has always made him a project.  I think Mingo while young actually projects best in the role Thielen has locked up.  

I agree, hes looking a slot in-waiting.......that makes me more upset about him being 39th overall pick. 

Right now the future looks like a young leading a dink and dunk for mingo and tremble...... fyi mingo is the youngest and tremble is only 23.

My take from that video is that Bryce is a legit talent with a lot of upside who was drafted by a clown show. The guy was cracking up about the pass protection and the lack of speed and separation of the wide receivers.  I doubt he laughs that much during his other video studies.  

He is also dogging the routes at times.

To be fair to JT, he is beating mostly on the overall offensive issues more than AT in this one.

Honestly, I think we can all agree on that.

The nice thing is we see that BY is mostly starting to be able to make some chicken salad out of all this chickenshit.

overall in his QB school....he spends most of his time talking about what is going on around Bryce Young.   That's what should make us feel good about Bryce.

He definitely has a crush on him. 

Also I think we can all see definite improvements over the season. If that can steadily continue for the rest of the year, that should make us all feel good.....about the QB. Now all that other poo.....lawd.

I am just going to keep beating on the coaching/scheme and the way the team is being built. Those two things do not seem to align at all.

totally agree.  the way they put this team together is mind boggling.  nothing fits together.

one thing fits into Frank's O.....Bryce Young.  The rest doesn't fit.  And they aren't altering things up enough given the talent we presently have.  I do fear it's just a matter of time before Bryce gets injured. 

You got an OL that can't protect that is asked to pass pro too much.  We have been painfully predictable.  Which just helps defenses attack you. You got WRs that can't get open.  You got absurd pressure coming at Young.   Eventually that ends poorly for Young.  An outcome JT alludes to often in his vids.  That, and it's basically impossible to have real QB success in what we are doing and have.

Yeah and it's painfully obvious that it isn't all personnel on that OL. Each player individually played better for the previous staff. They literally just look confused and not on the same page too much in the game. You see it with the TE's, the RB's....our pass protection is just not good. 

Ikey is an easy target but almost everyone has been having mental lapses and errors.

The WR's just seems like more taking these square pegs and hammering them into round holes. If you know you are struggling with separation, why are you running some of these plays? Why are we not trying everything possible to scheme people open instead of relying on our dudes to just line up ans beat the guy in front of them? Not saying we don't do that but we aren't exhausting all efforts to make this as easy as possible for what we have.

To me that is the biggest theme on offense so far this season. Mismatched parts and not trying to make it as simple as possible for the what we do have. Stop trying to pretend these are perfect parts.

previous staff asked them to run block most of the time.    and that's an easy life for a lineman. 

this staff is asking them to pass protect most of the time.  with opposing defenses trying to tee off on a young QB.....with WRs not being able to get open.   

and it still bothers me that never did simple things coming in like adding a legit RB for the type scheme we were going to be running.  I talked about it a lot this offseason.  Hubbard and Sanders were basically the same dude.  And it's not what this O was going to need often.  We were going to need that traditional 3rd down RB.  Who had hands, route running and most importantly could be relied on in pass pro.

Yeah these RB's are so bad in pass protection. 

IMO, Fitt has to be canned after this fiasco of an offseason. Not saying the staff doesn't deserve a lot of blame but you can't have this big of a disconnect between what you are trying to do on the field and how you are building the team.

And that is not even touching on his other insane blunders.

I have watched all his videos on Bryce this year and you very rarely, if ever, hear him really dog on Bryce about a throw or decision hes made that is really bad.

I think Mingo is slowly coming along and if he can get a consistent 4 to 5 catches a game things will open up.

I think the issue with Mingo is that he seems to have a definite ceiling. Doesn't mean he can develop into a useful player but he isn't going to be a primary threat or anyone that a defense has to plan to stop.

We have to get some more effective weapons in the offseason.

I see the opposite. He is physically gifted player who ran a backyard college offense. I feel his ceiling is not limited at all, its all about if he has it between the ears to figure out the NFL and the work ethic to go with it.

Mingo couldn't get open in college playing that backyard offense that helps players get free. Yet another swing and a miss by Fitt, this time costing draft capital.

      M Kaye on roster ahead of combine 3 positions not drafted by Morgan

      Bryce will be complete ass if the O-line isn’t top 10 or better so you have to shore up the tackles.

      M Kaye on roster ahead of combine 3 positions not drafted by Morgan

      By raleigh-panther · Posted

      Observer article    I left out the specialists which is the 3rd position  Panthers haven’t drafted three positions under Morgan: Will that change in 2026? Mike Kaye [email protected] 4 hrs ago The Carolina Panthers, two years into the Dan Morgan-Dave Canales era, have yet to draft an offensive lineman. That is likely to change in 2026. The organization has selected  three wide receivers,  two tight ends,  two running backs, two defensive backs, two defensive linemen and two outside linebackers  during the shared reign of Morgan and Canales. Those multiple selections at several positions have come at the expense of the offensive line. But there are other positions that have been avoided, too. With the 2026 NFL Scouting Combine ongoing in Indianapolis, let’s take a look at the three notable positions evaded by the organization over the past two drafts: Quarterback Last time position was drafted by Panthers:Bryce Young (first round, 2023) Impending free agents at the position: N/A Current depth chart under contract: Young, Andy Dalton   The Panthers can’t really be criticized for not selecting a quarterback over the past two years. The team invested a ton of draft capital in Young while trading up for the first overall pick in 2023. Young has legitimately rebounded from a brutal rookie year and a whirlwind 2024 season that saw him get benched for roughly a third of the campaign. The Heisman trophy-winning passer posted career-high numbers in 2025, and the Panthers have already publicly noted that they will pick up the fifth-year option on his rookie contract. So, Young will be under contract through at least the 2027 season. His longtime veteran backup, Andy Dalton, is entering the final year of his deal. Morgan hasn’t minced words when discussing his desire to add a younger QB behind Young. The Panthers are hoping to contend long term, and they’ll need to manage costs throughout the roster in order to retain their top-tier talent. Drafting a quarterback on Day 3 could provide the Panthers with a cost-effective backup for Young for years to come. That savings could then help them invest elsewhere. Dalton is guaranteed $2 million this season. If he were to be traded, the Panthers would save $4 million on the salary cap. That’s probably not enough savings to force a move, but given Morgan’s outlook on getting younger, it could lead to at least some consideration. Dalton, 38, could also be bounced if the Panthers decide to target it a younger journeyman QB in free agency. The backup quarterback spot has some offseason intrigue for the first time in a while. Offensive line Last time position was drafted by Panthers:G Chandler Zavala (fourth round, 2023) Impending free agents at the position: C Cade Mays, OT Yosh Nijman, G/C Austin Corbett, T/C Brady Christensen, G/T Jake Curhan   Current depth chart under contract: LT Ickey Ekwonu, LG Damien Lewis, C Nick Samac, RG Rob Hunt, RT Taylor Moton, Zavala, Ja’Tyre Carter, Joshua Gray, Saahdiq Charles The Panthers are set at three of their five starting positions on the offensive line. However, their outlooks at left tackle and center are certainly unenviable. Ekwonu ruptured his patellar tendon in the playoff loss to the Los Angeles Rams last month. And despite being due $17.5 million in the final year of his rookie contract, Ekwonu might miss a good portion of the 2026 seasonfollowing a notable knee surgery.   Mays, the starting center, is set to become a free agent in March. While he’s played quite well over the past two years, the Panthers might need to pass on re-signing him to improve other positions on the open market. Mays was cut by Carolina in 2024 and lost the 2025 center battle to Corbett this past summer. So, there’s reason to believe the Panthers aren’t totally sold on him being a long-term answer, either. With all that said, both positions have quite a bit of fluidity. Having Hunt and Lewis at the guard spots might make Morgan feel better about putting a rookie at center in 2026. The same sentiment, though, probably can’t be said about left tackle, as the Panthers will want to reinforce Young’s blind side with Ekwonu shelved. Nijman is likely among the internal free agents who Morgan wants to re-sign, and if that pact happens, look for the Panthers to be patient at tackle in the draft. With Christensen, Curhan, Corbett, Nijman and Mays all set to hit the market, the Panthers are likely to have several new faces on the offensive line depth chart in training camp. The Panthers will probably make multiple moves in the trenches during free agency and the draft.   Selecting a long-term swing tackle with starter upside — especially with Ekwonu set to hit free agency in 2027 — seems inevitable.

      Should Dave Canalas be on the HOT seat??

      By ForJimmy · Posted

      Making the playoffs as quickly as he did after what he inherited was impressive.  He inherited the worst team in the league with a depleted roster, missing draft picks, and a QB who just had a historically bad rookie season.  I mean it's hard to get much worse.  I wish he would hire someone to call plays because I think that's his weakness, but maybe he can get better there as he gets experience.
