Andy Dalton has played in the NFL for centuries....and it took the most pass attempts in his entire career for us to just have a respectful passing day in terms of yardage. It took him what, 60 pass attempts or something?    

 

Hold up a sec there.

The Red Rifle threw for 361 yards in that game.  That's more than just a respectful day, that's a great freaking day.  A whole season at that rate is over 6000 yards.  A whole season at HALF that rate is 3000 yards, and our starter isn't even going to get to that mark.

Dalton's season long pass this year is 47 yards.  BY's is 48.  Dalton's Air Yards per Attempt is 6.91, while Young's is 5.0.

This team would have won 6 or so games with Dalton.  It's fine that we didn't do that.  We had a rookie QB we needed to learn about.  We've now learned.  But let's not pretend the offense would not have been significantly better with Dalton running it.

Bryce will get a chance next year, but he's going to need to show improvement.  My concern is how will he do that?  It sucks, but it seems clearer all the time that we got dazzled by a test score instead of watching the actual full game tape on Bryce.

Edit to add: this “NFL-open” buzz term is something that has suddenly become very popular here this season. Might want to think about why that is. Could it be just the term “open” rarely describes our receivers?

The term "NFL-open" is popular this season because Bryce backers (most of whom are hilariously lacking in basic football knowledge) need to be educated on the fact that the NFL is very different from college football. In the NFL, receivers don't get nearly as much separation from defenders as they do at Alabama, whose players are significantly more talented than the opposition, save two or three opponents each season. In the NFL, the talent disparity is much smaller and throwing windows are far tighter, and therefore the demand on timing, processing, and ball placement (throwing receivers open is a big thing) is also significantly higher. This is precisely why so very many good college QBs don't make it in the NFL. Bryce backers just can't seem to grasp this simple fact and instead they resort to blaming the O-line, the receivers, the coaches, and anything and everything except their golden boy.

Many believe that Youngs poor dropbacks cause issues. Which makes a lot of sense. Improper depth and pace will do that. It would make sense as to why a veteran lineman was frustrated.

He had the same issues at Alabama but it didn't matter as much because the team was generally the more talented group of players.

Dude…58 pass attempts

You can be cute about the argument all you want…58 is a air raid number.

Wonder what youngs game would look like with 58 attempts in a game.  20 completions 150 yards 12 sacks 1 int 1 fumble 0 tds i believe would be close

I think the problem Is the biggest  Bryce Backers are Dave and Nicole 

the people who wanted him to sit got fired because they couldn’t make chicken salad out of chicken poo

Missing the forest for the trees.  Yes, Dalton threw 58 times.  Don't look at the number, look at what the numbers actually boiled down to.  Almost 7 air yards per attempt versus BY's 5.0.  Dalton's numbers put him in the same statistical category as Jalen Hurts, Mahomes and Josh Allen this year.  I'm not comparing him to those guys as a package!  Just saying that's what his numbers looked like in our only exposure to him in our offense! 

"But the Seahawks are a terrible pass defense!"

Actually, they are middle of the pack.  But let's say they are bad for arguments sake.  You know who's worse?  The Bucs (178).  The Jags (112).  The Texans (235).  The Lions (247).  The Bears (185).  The Vikings (204).  Yea, Bryce has played some terrible pass defending teams too and not gotten within 100 yards of what Dalton did.  In an offense that is arguably more productive with Frank Reich gone!

By way of comparison, at his season average of five yards per attempt, BY would have needed to throw it 72 times to hit that same 361 yards.  BY's season average puts him 33rd in the NFL this year among players with at least 6 starts.

Panthers history time class!

Who here remembers Teddy Two Gloves?  Checkdown Teddy?  Yea, well, in TB5's one season here he averaged 7.2 air yards per attempt.  He threw for 3700 yards, 15 TD's and 11 INT's in 15 games going 4-11.

I've seen people compare Young to Pickles.  That's a little harsh.  Pickles was worse.  You know who a REALLY GOOD Panthers comp for BY is?  Chris Weinke.  Check it out:

Were we too quick jumping ship on Weinke?  I sure don't think so.  Man, those stat lines look awfully similar and scary to me.

Weinke also had 6 rushing td’s. His production blows Bryce away. 19 picks in 2001 might be 15 era adjusted for today.

      this     I never cease to be amazed at the number of people who will run up their blood pressure to get to the grocery store 30 seconds faster or are racing to get to work like it won’t be there at 8:02.   The only thing I’ve ever done that I think added more years to my life besides quitting smoking, was to learn to go with the flow behind the wheel.

      The term you're looking for is "malinger(ed)", and he didn't.  I'm not sure why Panthers fans act like jaded ex girlfriends.  The dude is clearly injury prone as his time in San Fransico also proves. It's not like he got to San Fran and stopped having problems.

      My long and rambling post:   The guy is all heart, and I wouldn’t be surprised if he came back even better next year. He’s exactly the guy you lock up. The money won’t ever change the way he plays.  It was a big fumble, but what 1,000 yard back fumbles once in an entire season?  Pride. This team is FINALLY seeing guys who obviously take the game very seriously. Hunt, Chuba, Thielen, Brown, Horn (CB), Coker, Bryce (IMHO). Bye bye, Spider-Man. I don’t see these dudes being OK with teammates half-assing practice or in games. I can see Brown and Horn coming over to talk to somebody.  Good team? Ummm, maybe, but will still likely lose more close games than they win unless this last draft turns in to LOB part 2. That’s a stretch.  Pretty good/decent team. Yes. They finished the season as a pretty good team. I know I sound like a broken record harping back to it, but going in to ATL and putting a 40 burger on them en route to an OT win. A bad Panthers team would have had their brakes beaten off. We’ve seen it.  Rose colored glasses on and bonging a 40 of hopium: There are watershed moments that occur that change the course of franchises, both good and bad. If Fox doesn’t pull Rodney at halftime, the epic journey that was 2003 never happens. On the negative side, Cam taking that one hit from Watt was the end of any and all Panthers relevancy and we’ve been the biggest losers in all of pro sports as a result. Watershed moments. LOB draft. Vinny goes down and the goat is born.  Will the ATL game be the spark that this franchise has desperately needed? Could it be that they hit the mega million jackpot with Princley and Scourton as eat QBs for breakfast? Sure would be nice having 2 all-pro edge guys on the cheap for the next 4 years.  A lot of unknowns, but at least it actually feels  fun again.
