It was an exciting way to finish the game, great drive by the whole team. Chuba has really progressed this year. ISM is a very intriguing player, not sure why he wasn’t featured earlier in the year. Defense, led by Brown again was great. 
 

Bryce had a good game. But floated a lot of balls, allowing the defense to close on the ball. I still don’t see him as a winning starer in the NFL unless he’s surrounded by superstars at every position. And btw, that doesn’t make me a hater, I just don’t see it. But I hope I’m wrong. Would be awesome if he was.

But today was a good day, great to see us win one.

What is really like to know is how many of the plays called were TB and how many did Bryce check into. This drive was similar to the one we beat the Texans on and thankfully both ended up as wins. I do however see a glaring issue in both games that we cannot afford to continually count on. Defense held up all 4 quarters. This will not and cannot continually be expected. The main things you build off any great drive like this or win is confidence. Like they said on the broadcast any time Bryce is given a chance to make decisions and not have a defender in his face in 2 seconds then he can try to make a play or attempt to throw a receiver open. Confidence is key to end the year whether we win or not. Then come the offseason and we build around a punishing rushing attack, play action and motion. Simple as that.

As a Bama grad, I’m a Bryce fan, and I hope he figures this thing out. I was pleased with that last drive. However, I still want to see more out of his passes. The ~20 yarder to Tremble to get off the goal line took forever to get to him, and the pass to Minot was just a wounded duck with a nice adjustment (granted, the rain may have caused the ball to come out funny).

I do hope Bryce and the team can build in this. 

All his balls take forever to get to where he wants them. I just don’t see how is arm is going to be able to get to where it needs be at this level

Just like if a random person on the Huddle gives his hot take on a certain QB. Completely irrelevant.

And yet here you are, responding yet again.

You are pathetic.

What elicited such a response? Awfully touchy.

That’s my concern as well. You would have to throw with unheard of anticipation to overcome that issue.

My biggest concern too. It's amazing to me that this issue wasn't hammered home in scouting reports. 

I know some folks here will say "I told you so" from before the draft (and originally I was a Stroud guy too). But Bryce was unquestionably going to be picked in the top 5, probably top 2. So everyone was wrong on this, no just the lucky Panthers.

      Texas A&M Nic Scourton vs. Purdue Nic Scourton

      I’m honestly not trying to argue with you or talk bad about Scourton, I like him and I’ve watched all of his Purdue stuff/videos you linked previously. Just like I’ve watched all of Princely’s Florida stuff I’m only pointing out the weight thing because I’m excited about the idea of him being 255-260 and being more of a stand up edge here in Carolina like he was at Purdue versus at A&M And like you, I have a crap load of experience doing the whole cutting/weight/fitness thing and I know how crappy/sluggish I feel when I’m holding as little as an extra 8-10lbs of unnecessary weight. So for Scourton to come out and say he’s 255-260 now and feels good that’s exciting based on what he’s put on film at 280 and not feeling his best

      I hate seeing this. I'm not sure he was ever going to make it in the NFL without the injury but that injury knocked FSU out of the college football playoffs and cost him and them and opportunity on the biggest stage in college sports. The injuries are the worst part of this game. They've created a nearly unending list of "what ifs". Hell, every HS, college, and pro team out there has a long list of them. It's also a good reminder that there's no such thing as a routine major injury. Even though sports medicine has improved dramatically in recent decades, major injuries are still somewhat of a coin flip on how a guy is going to emerge from it.

      I don't know what Texas A&M was doing with their edge rushers. They had two freaks in Scourton and Shemar Stewart and yet instead of turning them loose they asked them to play 20 lbs overweight and just set the edge. That's full-on coaching malpractice at any level. Much was made about Shemar Stewart's lack of sack production, but while he wasn't my favorite prospect this year a lot of that was clearly what they were asking him to do. The good news with Scourton is that, unlike Stewart, did manage to be a huge factor as a pass rusher despite this and despite playing 20 lbs overweight. If he can stay around 260-265 it should help him re-gain some of that explosiveness from his Purdue days.
