Still would have thought by this point Young would have shown SOMETHING to me fans feel good about this undersized QB. 
As of right now he has shown nada, nothing. 

He looks slightly better than corral did and that’s sad

I will admit that he's come up small---shown little (har har har). Seriously he has shown some ability to improvise outside of the play script. He is largely accurate when he has good time, including in some tight windows. Other than that, I don't know.

A team president with actual NFL experience might have looked at Frank's coaching history and offensive play calling during his tenure and seen that we don't really have the team build to do that kind of stuff and he might not be the right fit. 

Dipper had plenty of time to get this right... hes not immersed enough to be making these decisions cause hes dickin with CLT FC...Rock Hill...and other BS....

Well, that's something. I thought Freddie Coleman was somewhat being an apologist yesterday when someone said that Tepper had betrayed Young by hiring and keeping a bad staff. I will say that the staff is still relatively new, but I expected more. I thought that experience alone would have begun to cover up some of our ills, but who knows what's really going on? They could be thoughtful and analytical, or they could be in disarray. I think that the presser where Reich began to talk about Tepper and his ownership style indicated some fractures.

We have literally been the worst team in the NFL, record wise, since Tepper took over.  I want to go to an alternate universe where Puff Daddy or that other guy ended up buying the team instead.

Other guy. Don't need "Puff" Daddy as the owner of the team I root for. Give me public ownership like the Packers or something.

If you can tell me Canty, one time, cross your heart and hope to die, that you, having played in the NFL, scouted a 5’ almost 10” maybe 185lb kid with an average arm and average footspeed, and evaluated him to be taken where he was taken? For real? 

This whole deal smells like CIA school. Run a trial propaganda op, see how far they can get with it. If they can sell this kid as the number one, worth a HAUL, then they can sell their candidate in some third world county.

I believe that one of the main issues with Tepper running this organization have to do with his use of analytics and using them to possibly select players in the draft since this roster is so void of talent. My belief comes from an article in 2019 published in the Riot Report. Here is a quote from that article:

"For plenty in the football world, the Panthers’ approach will be an exciting one with the potential to move the game forward as the 2010s turn to the 2020s. Not everyone, however, will share that sort of enthusiasm. And many of the concerns about an analytics-driven league are very sound ones. In 2016, the Cleveland Browns implemented a radical analytics-based approach under executive Sashi Brown, which resulted in a 32 game stretch that saw the Browns win just one game and go 0-16 in 2017, while yielding a talent-rich – if underachieving – roster in 2019. While that may be an extreme example, there’s plenty to be said about the limits of analytics.

Statistics, after all, can’t make a tackle in the open field.

Regardless of which side of the fence one lies on, the Carolina Panthers are about to become one of the most important teams in football. Should David Tepper’s vision work, and a data-centric approach yield an age of greatness, the Panthers will become the envy of an entire industry and a model franchise to be emulated. If it doesn’t, the Panthers will become just one more cautionary tale of the limits of analytics – and their fans will rue the day their team ever parted ways with Ron Rivera."

    • Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.
    • Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly. 
    • Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
