If Byrce could hit more open throws, contested incompletions like these can be forgiven.  Can't cherry pick only contested throws and say he needs help.  Young can help himself by hitting what the defense is giving him.  Odd he didn't show the wide open WR Byrce missed for the TD, huh?  That would fug up his narrative. 

I get these media types that have access to the Panthers have to walk a fine line between true journalism and not pissing off the people who grant that access.  While this may fool the casual fan, the die-hards know bullsh!t when they see it.

I saw one glaring miss yesterday (the same TD that everybody saw).   One play doesn't change the "narrative" that the entire offense blows and blaming one person doesn't work.

 

Everything else was the same poo; except he forced it deep when nobody was open instead of throwing it away.

Why was he even hired? He didn’t know Frank’s crew and his resume is not that of a NFL play caller. No wonder Frank was hesitant to give up play calling. Multiple times now 3rd/4th and short and he passes with the game on the line despite our passing attack not working. It’s like he’s going above and beyond to out the game in Bryce’s hands. He’s probably afraid of not doing it after what happened in Chicago.

Running game produced over 200 yards, you would think that would have loosened up the back end some.  So no, the entire offense didn't blow yesterday, just the passing game led by Bryce Young.

It didn't. 

The same OL that did some good in run blocking fell flat on their face blocking on almost every passing play.

The offense sucks, Bryce included. 

 

You can blame 1 player as the sole source all you want but you are wrong.

Is Bryce the only problem? Obviously not, but as the QB--you know, the most important position in all of team sports--It starts with him.  No, not every pass attempt was a jailbreak by the defense.  He couldn't do anything even with the snaps where he had some time.

Two factors most likely, the first being reputation. And his association with Sean McVay certainly didn't hurt.

The second being that Tepper wanted Reich to build a staff from outside his circle. Part of that was seeing what happened with Matt Rhule but also there was the story of Brian Daboll doing that in New York and succeeding.

Of course, that's not exactly playing out well in year two 😕

Idk man, maybe I am in the minority but I actually think yesterday as a whole was one of our better called games on offense outside of maybe a couple short yardage plays. But even then like the play to Blackshear was there, he just fell down.  
 

tons of plays in the passing game were there to be made and just dropped balls or inaccurate throws. Ran for 200 yards.

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
