If you think Cam has ever once in his entire life played as badly as Young has this year, I don't even believe you have the use of sight.

Love me some Cam, hate the way this franchise dumped him unceremoniously in 2020, but uh, you did see some of the stats he put up in his second stint here, right? Specifically the ugly game in Miami when he went 5/21 for 92 yards and 2 picks?

Are you seriously comparing the clearly past his best days as a passer version of Cam to Bryce?

Bryce Young at 22 and Cam Newton at 22 don't even belong in the same convo.

I think Cam is far and away a better QB in his prime, as well as a QB prospect coming out, than Young. I wish he had never gotten hurt and was still the franchise QB here. I was just responding to the "has [he] ever once in his life played as badly" as Young part. The clear answer to that is yes, he has.

It was bad no doubt. I had a fun time arguing with people who thought Cam still had something left in the tank.

In fairness based on how we've seen Bryce Young perform so far I don't think he would fair any better than Cam under the same circumstances once it's clear he's past his best youthful days.

He played 2 games start to finish and that wasn't one of them. In the 2 he actually got a chance to play to the end (vs Washington and Buffalo), he played miles better than Young has in any game this season.

He ran the ball very well the Buffalo game (15 car, 71 yards and a TD), but his passing stat line might as well have been ripped out of this season (47.4% completion rate, 156 yards, 4.1 YPA, 1 TD, 1 INT, 17.7 QBR).

Washington was his best game in that second stint and agreed, that game was way better than anything Young has put on tape so far.

Sounds like every game Bryce has had for us, except substitute 2 picks with 2 fumbles and 1 pick.

    • Who is "they"?  Who in the media still argues that Bryce Young could reach the levels that people thought he would before the draft? I mean, nobody is going to come outright and bash the kid.  By all accounts he's a good dude and I think that is why you don't see the media come after him like they did Zach Wilson.
    • It started during the Denver game after that first drive. i don’t think the panthers got a first down again until the fourth quarter. 
    • The Panthers will finish with at least 7-8 wins.  So that leaves them with only two "smart" choices in my opinion: 1. Sign a reasonably priced free agent QB and see if they are better than Bryce Young in training camp - The issue is there will be very little options.  There is almost no way the Colts let Daniel Jones walk.  Rodgers, Flacco, and Wilson will likely retire (and is Wilson better than Bryce anyway?).  Winston is under contract with the Giants for another year.  That leaves Mariota, which I'm all for, but the Commanders will make a big push to keep him given Daniels' injury history.  Outside of him, there is literally nobody else. 2. Stick with Bryce Young for one more year - Nobody wants this to happen, but the Panthers won't be in a position to draft one in the first round and it isn't a strong class to begin with.  Mendoza, Simpson (and do we really want an Alabama QB?), and Moore will likely all be off the board by the time we pick.  Bryce isn't good, but we are still 5-4.  I'd rather continue to build the rest of the team than reach for a QB.  Then we could set ourselves up nicely in 2027 to make a splash play if we choose.  This is how we should have approached years past; stuck with Kyle Allen or Sam Darnold or Teddy Bridgewater and kept building the team until we were ready to make a splash.  But every year we panicked and did something stupid. There is the idea you could throw a dart at a guy in the later arounds, but IMO this just isn't a good QB class and odds are it will be a wasted pick.  I still think we need a lot of depth on the defense.  I'd rather focus there.
