There were definitely things to like. Then again there was still much of the same considering we never made it to the end zone and squandered many drives until the end. Folks talking up the Falcons defense are coping. They are a mediocre team at best in one of the worst divisions in the league. We need to carry this momentum into the matchup with the Packers. If we take another step back after this win the huddle will meltdown.

I think the Falcons defense is solid. There just aren’t many elite defenses in general outside of Dallas and maybe the Eagles/Ravens but they all are kind of streaky. Plus the weather conditions and  rivalry game kind of throws those statistical ratings out the window. It’s not like our offense crushed their defense anyway. We had 9 points. We just executed a solid GWD slowly and methodically down the field.

The Falcons are 10th in total defense per FoxSports. They are an opportunistic group. But they've given up 20 or more points eight times this season. I definitely would have felt better about the win if we had reached the end zone.

Moving on to our final two games the Packers are 22nd in total defense and the Bucs are 26th. There should be absolutely no excuse not to score a touchdown or two against each team. I don't know how the rest of ya'll feel but I'm not going to sit around rejoicing over field goals. Against that level of competition we better score.

I just like when we win but yeah touchdowns would make me feel a lot better. Especially if Mingo and Young are at least strong contributors to these scores as we need them to develop for next season. Man our bar is pretty low to just want a score against bottom tier defenses. If nothing else Chuba will probably get one. He would have have one last week if Tabor didn’t play for the FG (which I have no problem with).

We just can't put up consistent offensive performances at all. The one week we had 200 rushing yards Bryce Young finished with a 12.3 QBR and we were blown out.

Anywho before someone barrels in here and starts slinging around accusations I am very happy we defeated the Falcons. As it stands now we split with them we were swept by the Saints (barf) and we are hoping to split with the Bucs. Considering the state of our division and it's ranking amongst the rest of the league that's....ugly at best. But it will have to do for now.

All I want for Christmas is the Panthers offense to look competent to finish the season and not subject us to any more embarrassment. We are already in store for plenty of that once the offseason begins.

That's all I got. Good talk 🤜

Unless I’m not looking at his YouTube channel correctly (and it’s possible I can’t navigate that poo anymore) he hasn’t done Bryce in a while.

He does them every week.

He's saying not on Bryce, or at least not released on YT every week for Bryce. Last one appears to be Week 9. 

He has more Bryce breakdowns available through his patreon: https://www.patreon.com/theqbschool

I think he has one for Bryce each week. No idea what is on them though since it's behind a paywall.

I would say folks downplaying multiple improved performances are coping. "Coping" is defined as "dealing effectively with something difficult." Being happy about a win is not, by definition, "coping," nor is saying a defense ranked top-10 isn't bad is "coping."

We scored 9 points, bud, and 3 of those were from a turnover on the Falcons 30 yard line.

Yeah the reality is we're averaging about 13-14 points a game with Bryce and his 5 y/a average. Purdy has almost 10 y/a for anyone trying to lump them into the same category

Bryce would (and any other starting QB) average 10 y/a with the best LT in football, the best RB in football, the best WR corp in football, and a top 5 D in football. Purdy is fools gold

    • 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
