I can’t tell if this write up is serious or extremely sarcastic.

I know nothing about how the writer / publisher created the article

i only knew  it was dated today, was the first article i saw that referenced  the firing, and there were other articles that  came out since  that stated the  same about the guy’s job status 

many on here, including me, worked in businesses that used analytics as a tool for probability but it really isn't hard to see the fatal flaw of using it exclusively for the NFL 

..the guy came from the Eagles…tepper and fitterer drank the kool  aid, add to it RAS,  and here  we are

I know a few of people have off-handedly mentioned the writing style was a bit weird and overdramatic. Just wanted to let you all know that it reads like that because it’s entirely AI generated. I use some writing AI programs and could tell it was fishy real quick, so I ran it through a couple programs and it came out as 98% AI generated.

 

No idea who that dude is, if he was fired, or if he was doing our drafts, but there’s a good chance most of that is false. Just a heads up 

According to ESPN's Seth Walder, the team is expected to part ways with Taylor Rajack—the franchise's first-ever director of football analytics. Rajack has served in that role since 2019, when owner David Tepper introduced the football analytics department.

It's likely that the firing was true but the AI article was made in an effort to get an article posted about it.

If all that is true,  which seems like speculation to me, but if its true it tells me that the org knows that bryce at aint.  Maybe we do move on in a year.

Canales to Tepper now he's got a 6 year contract behind him: "Yeah, Young is shite. We need to move on".

That article is so well written most of the uninitiated might miss the layers of satire throughout lol. Minus the introduction. 

It's not satire. It's AI

I'd say whoever wrote that article was a tad overdramatic.

I read it and thought it was parody. Hard to believe the person who wrote it was serious. The guy's time with the Panthers coincides with how long the organization has sucked.

    • How did this “innovative” narrative start with Canales? Just because he’s young? He truly wants to run the ball and nothing Tampa did last year was all that creative. Mike Evans ability to win 1 on 1 does wonders for an offense as a whole 
    • Initially, I wanted Stroud but I thought the trade up meant that, whoever they chose, it was for a reason.  There was no pressure to do anything for the entire scouting team to do other than investigate every aspect of the top 3 candidates.  Stroud had his question marks, and I think it is possible that he falters this year.  Bryce had a much worse situation here in Carolina because we neglected the OL, traded our #1 WR, did not pick WRs well in the draft, traded our pro bowl RB, and seem to disregard the TE position altogether.  Bozeman was not a good fit and we relied on an improved OL in 2022 to suggest that we were set there when we were far from it.  Fitterer had no vision, no grasp of talent, and everyone in the front office and on the coaching staff were pretending to be gurus.  Our coaching staff was a group of men earning a lifetime achievement paycheck.  It all goes back to the years of neglect for the OL.  My theory?  If Stroud had come to Carolina, he would be as mocked and ridiculed as Bryce Young.   No, he does not have a cannon.  Chad Pennington was a weak-armed QB who had success and would have been even better if it were not for injuries.  Smarts is important at QB, and so are mechanics.  Before you can address Young's mechanics, he needs an OL, Running game, and weapons. We were not really able to run play action from under center for a few reasons--play action is not effective when you have to pass the ball--other than that, the QB must turn his back to the LOS for about 1.5 seconds.  When the QB has less than 2.5 seconds to pass the ball, that eliminates that part of the play book.  Heck, even the run option is minimized when there is immediate facial pressure.  SO those who want to talk about happy feet, bouncing, etc--they are symptoms of the problem, not the problem.  A weak arm?  Well, Young's arm is between Chad Pennington and Joe Montana--closer to Joe.  His are is not as weak as some think--but he has issues with the deep ball. When you are reacting to the defense and quickly have to pass, then that takes away the strength because you don't have the base to get power behind it.  I still wish we had taken Stroud, but we have Young and if you toss him out before giving him support, you are not wise, unsmart, not unfoolish, and rather elite in your failure to attain mediocrity.  Expect growth.  How much? Nobody knows.
