It’s only a thing players who have a weak mind go through. Other QBs get sacked like crazy and still perform. At this point it’s just an excuse for why Carr sucked but he was a big performer at a small lesser school and he wasn’t ready for the NFL. 

Yeah I agree. It can make a QB jittery or play bad during the game when the OL is struggling, but I’d like to think the good QBs can bounce back and get into rhythm when the OL plays better.

I mean recently we have seen it especially with guys like Burrow. Or even look at @LinvilleGorges boy Sam Howell. He’s getting plastered every week and performing at a high level.

Sam is used to it. That UNC OL his final year was beyond atrocious. Dude don't give a fug. He'll stand in there and fire that pig skin anyway. He's that dude and somehow the whole NFL just missed it.

Yes and no.

Carr had his own issues, but he absolutely was shell shocked by the number of hits he took. He felt phantom pressure for the rest of his career.

It’s too early to tell with Bryce. You usually need 1.5-2 seasons to tell with a QB. The group around him isn’t very good, and as the article in The Athletic pointed out, not the right scheme players. 
 

Many of his negatives get inflated by that, but he does have some alarming footwork/technique at times as well. 
 

By this time next season, what Bryce is going to be will be clear.

      Round 1: The Carolina Panthers select OT Monroe Freeling (Georgia)

      By Jay Roosevelt · Posted

      I wonder if they'd consider trading Rasheed Walker to a team that needs tackle help but missed out in the draft?

      LOL. This is such a Panthers fan take.  Anyone who falls to us must suck because some other team didn't take them before.  We got lucky with Lemon, Thieneman, and Freeling all falling to us (honestly any of the three is a A+) but the WR and S positions are much deeper than the LT position in this draft.  We got the LT w/ the most upside at 19.  Mauigoa played RT in college and some think he is a guard in the nfl.  Spano played RT in college and some think he is a guard in the NFL due to short arms.  Blake Miller played RT in college and is not as good as Freeling.  Proctor is a true LT but his ability to handle quick edge's worries me (see Icky).  Freeling is a true LT and a gifted pass protector.  Many think he has a very high ceiling and will benefit from not having to start right away.  This is how you build a franchise.

      After watching Cam get killed for years behind a bad Oline and having to watch the 2021 and 2023 Olines I will never complain about this team putting resources into that spot.  We got a true LT who could really push Rasheed Walker for the day 1 job. Go back and watch Iceky's draft profile from 2022 and all the talk was Ickey would be an all-pro guard in a zone blocking scheme, but he could play LT in a gap power run scheme. That's why Ickey looked really good when Wilks took over and we just started running gap run plays and just mauled people up front but under Canales we've been more of a zone running team. Ickey can survive at LT with his pass blocking but his true strength will always be his ability to just move guys in the run game and that's a skill set that's better used at guard.  Take another OT later on day 3 to learn from Moton to take over RT in a couple of years and let Walker and Freeling battle it out for the day 1 LT job then next offseason trade one of Hunt of Lewis and let Ickey move inside to guard.
