Sadly this is where I am. Was such a special player at Alabama. He’s not a guy that can carry an offense. He can be highly productive in a GOOD offense/scheme, but he’s not elevating a bad one. So yea like others have said, you didn’t have to give away your future for him. 

Right. I still think he can play in this league. And perhaps do well if he finds himself in a very fortunate situation. But being the guy we thought he could be, I'm out on that. I hate it too cause I really like the kid. I'll still be rooting that when the pieces are around him something is unlocked, but I'm no longer putting all my eggs in that basket.

He is certainly missing some transistors and diodes in that processor  at this point. Clearly failed the “most nfl ready, safest bet” mantra, so he is indeed at bust based on that, but he may be the guy it takes 2,3,4 years before it starts to click.

Sadly all of the Panther’s eggs are in that basket

I was reasonably impressed by Bryce's composure. Bad decisions, sure, some bad throws. But actual flashes, which is what I wanted to see all year.

Just throw this team into under-center looks for the last chunk of the season and focus on what worked today instead of the pistol nonsense that hasn't worked all year.

Uh the Commanders have good WRs. This a bad take 

They have better than us lol, but no ... their corps is very average. Now you can blame their production on Ron or Howell ... but that's the base of all these arguments on this board. Mingo would probably be killing it in Houston. The Commanders corps would be beyond lousy here.

This is also the opponent Stroud torched for 550, so any flashes are tempered. He had some pitiful downfield throws that aren’t even nfl-backup caliber

Mingo wouldn’t see the field in Houston. He had a good game today, but he still doesn’t have a good feel for where he is on the field.

If this was the 1st or 2nd game I’d agree with you. And maybe this is the 1st game minus Frank and that’s how it should be viewed. Idk man this game was his to grab a hold of and I just don’t see the same clutch and confident guy I watched at Alabama.

You got to theow money at him anyway.

No you don't, it will just be wasting our time when we could spend it on someone more realistic.

Evans is either staying in TB or going somewhere to try and chase another ring, he's not just going to sign with the highest bidder.

I dont know if its fair to expect the same guy we saw at Alabama.  Not yet anyway.  Its so much easier to be the QB at Alabama.

      Not sure how much he was a long term piece of this team.   Sucks to not have him as part of the rotation.   Looks like it's Lee Hunter time.

      I am not sure he will put the over the games but we’ll probably have them.   Two things I am thinking.  We have 4 preseason games.  All the coaches have enough service time to know the standards that are in place for decades. If I recall it was play your starters just a series to start woth and build it up until week theee where play a lot and you have week four to set hour roster. Evaluate before cuts.   Bevell will certainly have the whole thing down pat.   I’d they don’t do the fries and frie air will worry too. Because it is set up to do that.     I have said since they went t three preseason people have to figure a new way are still feeling it out and trying things.  We don’t have to this year.
