Frank back to calling plays

We showed last year that this Oline can be a top unit in the league being a power running team. Then we hired an "offensive guru" who decided that he should completely change the whole philosophy. I wouldn't be as upset if Reich was taking over a complete poo show and he was just trying to do things his way to see if it sticks but Wilks had us running a pretty respectable operation late in the year last year and instead of choosing to build upon that and embrace what we showed we were good at he changed everything. The worst part is that even though through 10 weeks of the season it's shown to not be working he's not went back to the power running plays we know this team excels at.

The stats...

 

Frank Reich didn’t even let Thomas Brown call a preseason game.  Frank let him come on late when the future insurance salesman were on the field. 

Dumb management on his part. A green OC is like a rookie QB.  They need reps.  They need time to grow and learn.  

But that’s also one of many reasons I don’t think Frank wanted to turn playcalling over when he did. His reasoning was always bologna. Which he sort of concedes in reality.   Think that is/was Tepper pressure.  And that is when Frank was also conceding a hands on owner was displeased and in his ear. 

so it didn’t work.  Now Frank gets to say, see it wasn’t me being bad.  A green OC who never even called a preseason game was worse in a tiny sample size.   It’s a clown show.

I don’t even know why we’d be comparing Young to Dalton, the two are at completely separate points in their careers.

the only people who want that are coming from the angle of “we need to see if it’s Bryce fault so he can be criticized!”

what does that accomplish? The team isn’t waging a debate with you. They’re proceeding as if he’s going to be the QB for a while. The goal is to help him develop, not throw meat to people who are out to see him fail. They aren’t evaluating, they’re developing.

he’s going to be the QB here next season. 

Yea it's a pretty silly argument but when Carolina Panthers Football is your only source of entertainment in your life it's kind of hard to hide that you're just a miserable person and it actually has nothing to do with Bryce Young or Panthers Football. That's all I gather from their strawman arguments

Yeah he knows his days are numbered.  It's a panic move.

I don’t see that. As far as panic, I mean. He has been through this just last year.

Hate to see it come this way but it is an example of a person who sees himself maybe repeating a mistake. Kind of catches himself and says wait a minute…. 

Like the guy who has been trying to please everyone and realizes he can’t.

    • I read that Pittsburgh is a possibility.  I think of college QB studs who had some form of mental quirk yet tons of talent--but their issue made being a team leader difficult and it led to their demise--going back:  Jamarcus Russell, Art Schlichter, Jeff George, etc. I think people forget that the QB must not only have talent, but they must lead.  
    • I wish I knew more details, but the NIL money to 20-year olds combined with easy access to gambling sites is a side effect that these kids may not have considered.  To your point,A famous 2009 Sports Illustrated article titled “How (and Why) Athletes Go Broke” estimated that 78% of retired NFL players go bankrupt or face significant financial stress within two years of leaving the league.  I am guessing that ego and $$$ and the thrill of competition (most pro athletes love competition because they are the winners) makes it a powerful temptation.  Throw in the ease of gambling on your phone which is always in your hand, and I see your point x 10.
    • Freeling got some reps at RT when they gave Moton a rest day--I sorta hope Freeling gets brought along slowly as you describe.  It would be better for him for reasons you provide.  We have a really good problem.
