We looked like an NFL team pie

I’m glad Bryce finally had a good game, I just keep wondering, why did it happen now? Ideal playing conditions against a bad pass defense? What clicked? Pressure off since the team is beyond buried this season?

Having a run game, better coaching and scheme but I can't stress how much at least average guard and center play has been a game changer. 

We've started 9 different guys at guard this year.  Cade Mays stepping up at LG and getting Gabe Jackson to hold it down RG.  We started keeping a TE and Rb in to help blocking a lot more giving Bryce more time.  

So why now?  If I have to pick the biggest one, it's guard play.  You could even see the early season panthers during the first 2 drives with Nash Jension in at RG getting blown up every play.

I have been most impressed with the improvement of Cade Mays and the coaching staff changes since Frank left.

Coaches running that dumb zone blocking scheme with huge offensive lineman that didn’t fit.  I believe they changed the scheme back when Frank left.

Packers defend ehas been bad the last 3 week.

They've given up career days to Mayfield, Devito, and Bryce.

That said, I'm glad we took advantage of it and I felt like Bryce threw a better ball today.

    • In my view, and this is not based on any evidence beyond memory, the best backups are those who were drafted, thrown into the fire too early, then discarded as a bust.  Some really improve once they have been given a chance to lick their wounds, watch, and work with the QB room for a year or two.  I think there is something to the Parcells (I think) formula:  "Bill Parcells had a seven-point "formula" or checklist for drafting a quarterback: be a three-year starter, a college senior, a graduate, have a minimum of 30 starts and 23 wins, maintain a 2:1 touchdown-to-interception ratio, and achieve at least a 60% completion percentage."  Having said that, Parcells' comment was long before the new college offenses and portal jumping, but the basic formula frames what it takes.  So players like Trey Lance, Anthony Richardson, Zach Wilson, Jameis Winston (to a degree), are TYPES that defend my position.  Richardson has not hit rock bottom and rebounded yet, and I am not sure Wilson will ever amount to anything beyond his 2020 BYU season, but this kind of player knows what it is like to be the "the guy" and they know the weaknesses in their game that other teams exploited.  Of course there are exceptions etc., but this is simply my preference.  Derek Anderson is a good example. In college, he completed 50% of his passes and threw 57 interceptions vs. 79 TDs.  As a backup, he was not bad.  I think Dalton is a decent backup, fwiw.  Anderson actually won 20 games as a pro (vs. 29 losses) and when he started for the Panthers, he was 2-2 (2014 and 2016) and completed 67.5% of his passes.  
    • Was really a dumb and slightly costly decision to cut Renfrow. They could have just as easily carried him while the AT trade was completed and cut someone like James Mitchell. No one would claim him off waivers and even if they did they could have just claimed another worthless tight end if they desperately needed to carry 4. I think Dan thinks he's really smart by doing stuff like this but in reality he cost tepper and the cap 2 million dollars for 0 reason.
    • The hubris when discussing backup QB's here is both interesting and amusing. I guess that's the state of our franchise now eh? But if I could only choose between 3 choices to be the Panthers QB2 (Allen Heinicke or Dalton). Andy Dalton would be the last option every single time.
