Carolina Definitely Chose the Wrong QB

I knew CJ would be successful in NFL with his touch and throws in tight windows.  I knew Bryce would suck and when his YouTube videos were full of highlight throws to wide open WRs with blown coverages plus Bryce decided not to throw at combined it magnified the red flags but Tepper, you know, analytics and poo.

Talking about analytics… NFL models predicted CJ would be successful and Bryce would suck.  Not quite sure what Tepper was thinking.  Reading Twitter?

I wanted Stroud but I'm an OSU guy and he just looked like he had a better cannon. Ultimately tho, these threads are too frequent and frankly, are stupid. Revisionist history won't get us any closer to not being the worst team in the league. Time to accept the hand we have dealt ourselves.

 

I'll root for the Texans tho, they are fun to watch.

It ain’t revisionist history from me, you can deep dive my post to pre-draft last year, also made a few topics about it when I thought we were gonna go for stroud. So disappointed as a fan I can’t even begin to explain. To me Stroud was clearly better and clearly the choice. He’s the one you had to make the least amount of excuses for

False.  Many had Young and Stroud at best even.  Most people were worried about size and durability but that turned into nothing.  Carolina sucks top to bottom and Young can’t overcome the entire train wreck in his rookie season.  This idea is really stupid actually 

Keep up the copium to believe Young is any good.

Yes it looks like a whiff.  I wish we could all agree to move on and talk about the staff and players that will actually be on the Panthers this fall.

The Bears didn't get a re-do to take Mahomes or Allen instead of Trubisky.  We'll never have Stroud.  Move on

There was nothing Young did better then Stroud from what I seen. All everyone said about Young was off script this, off script that. Then he gets to the NFL he needs a all star OL where his so called off script skills wouldn't be needed ...

Why are people acting like the NFL community at large thought CJ was far and away the better prospect? That just wasn’t the case. Bryce was probably consensus QB1. So while it’s fair to think CJ should have been the guy, it wasn’t because the Panthers made some egregious reach.

Anyone with an iota of sense knew Young at 1 + trading up to do so was absolute poverty

Agree, which is why I've been harping on the franchise itself rather than just Bryce. He's the worst #1 pick QB since maybe Couch, but Carolina as a franchise is the worst structurally flawed franchise in all of sports, and maybe one of the worst (if not THE worst) of all time. We've had a handful of good seasons over the years but that's like a grain of rice staving off starvation. It was always going to collapse. Now it has.

CJ is the reason why you don’t put all your eggs in one basket. I remember a lot of Panther fans calling stroud slow and stupid because of a S2 score that no one still knows what the true score was. If we didn’t have to trade the farm for Bryce, I think Adam and DJ with Stroud would have been a nice trio with a healthy offensive line, of course. If CJ Stroud reaches the next level and becomes even better while Bryce declines even more, we might be in trouble for some years to come. All those Bryce young lovers stating that Bryce cleared CJ on every aspect of being a QB, he’s making y’all truly eat your words. Huge credit to Slowick as well

Careful…the Bryce nut huggers will poo you to death.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      By cranky · Posted

      Not exactly sure that is an honest assesment of the talent he had to work with that year. Olsen had over 1100 yards that season making the PB, Stewart had close to 1100 total yards also going to the PB. He had Kalil at C who went to the PB, Trai Turner at RG who also went to the PB, and Michael Oher at LT who played well enough that the Panthers offered him a new contract the following year. I wouldn't call that a trash OL. He also played with a defense that was stacked with talent as well.   "The thing we are doing better this time around is actually surrounding our #1 overall draft pick QB with talent vs. asking him to completely carry the offense. I just hope that effort is leading us to realize that the guy isn't even good enough to get carried." Please.... Did you not read the list of names Newton had to work with his rookie season. I guess you missed it so I will post it again for you... Steve Smith (PB), Greg Olsen (PB), Brandon LaFell, Ted Ginn JR, Deangelo Williams (PB), Jonathan Stewart (PB), Jordan Grossn (PB), Ryan Kalil (PB) on the offensive side and then he had Luke Kuechly (PB), Jon Beason (PB), Thomas Davis (PB), Star Lotulelei, Kawann Short ( PB ),Charles Johnson, Greg Hardy (PB ), Mike Mitchell, Josh Norman (PB)  For comparison, here is who Young had his first year.  Chuba Hubbard, DJ Chark, Jonathan Mingo, Adam Thielen, Hayden Hurst, Ikem Ekwonu, Chandler Zavala, Bradley Bozeman, Nash Jensen and Taylor Morton. Not a single PB player on the list and most of them aren't even playing any longer. Additionally, his HC was fired during the season and the defense was as bad as the offense.  You might not like the comparison but saying Newton had to completely carry the offense isn't exactly fair to the 4 pro bowlers on offense who played with him that year.

      Carolina Still Not Respected

      That's why I say we have to keep looking. Even if you believe Bryce is the guy, KP and Grier are not and who knows if King is anything more than a gimmick player, we should be active in improving our 2nd QB spot. Season ending injuries happen, and you don't just want to roll over and give it up. How many starters have we seen come from the ranks of backup? Having 2 potential starting QBs is one of the best problems we could have.

      Eh, it’s more on how bad the refs are. Some of these calls against the canes are no calls
