Good point by Cam Wolfe that Bryce just too California laid back in the huddle/getting the calls in for them to run effective pre snap motions. That combined with his lazy dropbacks/crazy footwork/hopping in the air to throw is gonna be tough to fix. Almost like you just want a completely different QB

I literally made the point predraft multiple times that Bryce seemed too “California” to me and got poo’d like hell.

Please don't turn my thread into a 2 person pissing contest lol we have enough of those already

Don't worry 😄

It's an interesting topic, honestly. A lot of stuff has come out since the firing (as tends to happen) that's beginning to help explain things we'd seen prior to this point.

Yeah that with Reich seeming completely unmotivated and I'm assuming Tepper being adamant about playing Bryce even though he doesn't seem ready has been a bad scenario. Judging by the Tabor press so far he's not trying to do anything drastic either lol. I don't blame him really, he's just like I'm gonna ride it out and coach special teams again next year somewhere, not my problem.

Can you imagine, Young telling a Sean Payton or Bill B,  ‘nah man, I ain’t doing a wristband’

Sweet Jesus

It was Thomas Brown who said it, dude. He doesn't work for Panthers PR.

Bruh, Tepper slings PR and sells narratives to the masses of how they want things viewed. Fitterer does.  Frank does.  Brown does.  Tabor will.  Coaches  are the ones that do it the most because that’s who you listen to

this is why you are pointless to talk with. I say these folks are slinging PR nonsense and painting images of how they want things to be perceived (and it’s rarely the actual truth) and you respond with they don’t work in the actual PR deparment lol.  Wut?!! 

go ahead and twist this into something else too lol.  I broke my rule but couldn’t let that one slide lol

Since smitty got on the payroll, Ive basically stopped listening. 

Dam shame cause I enjoyed most of his takes. I even remember he was on an island about some white WR named kupp being the best WR in the draft....

I don’t know where this is coming from, but Steve Smith seems like the last guy who would you could put under a thumb.

Or either of them letting Bryce run O-line meetings during training camp? lol. 

I wonder how much truth is in all that stuff though.  I mean there was a massive blitz by this team to paint a narrative not just on Bryce but the team coming into this year.  It was borderline comedy what they were presenting when you put it all together

    • So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?
    • Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.
    • Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
