Same. Something that made Wilson so great in Seattle is that he could lob up a wounded  duck and his WRs would come back to the ball and fight for it and come down with it. If Bryce did that it's an automatic pick 6. He needs some dogs throwing elbows trying to help him out.

Ha. Same wavelength.

Ol' Rusty's rainbow prayers, that was once upon a time always answered, use to absolute kill me when we played them.

It killed me inside that for years people considered him a cut above Cam.

Now I want to know why yinz couldn't trade us your center before he was cut!!!

I wouldn't be against it if we had any other options currently.  Colbert wasn't that bad in a running oriented system until he got hurt and the system changed, and will change once more.  We just are afraid to rely on him as a long term solution.

I always love when a fan of the previous team shows up and has NOTHING positive to say. 

I've been watching football for 45 years now.  He's a talented kid.  Had some injuries.   The team that drafted him is moving on.  His new team picked him up for peanuts. He doesn't have to be elite to improve the Panthers receiving core.  Sometimes a change of scenery and system is needed.  

Thanks for your time steeliedude,  you can go back home now. 

Hope you’re right, appreciate yinz analysis.

I have many good friends and family from the Pittsburgh area but have never heard “yinz” before…

…what in the actual fug.  🙃

I've heard it more than a few time in my lifetime. Some of it from NC natives that no dick about football much less the Steelers.  Guess what. It has nothing to do with IQ or which football team you follow. 

Screw you for making me defend a Steelers fan by the way.

No offense intended, I’ve just never heard it before.  I’m sure “yinz” is similar to “y’all” it’s just not something I’ve encountered.  Dig it.

It's the same thing. Both are just southern slang of butchered English words.

Don't get so butthurt. Like I said week one you'll be asking why he drops back after the catch. 

 

So I guess everyone at the Steelers forum has been complaining for 2 years and calming him Mr. I run backwards for nothing.

Catches is the key word, that’s a step in right direction.

Wa it really that bad? 

 

Johnson will drop a couple. But who doesn't.... you'll be happy with him, as long as you don't get upset when he goes back 5 after the catch. 

He can be a #1.

And his injury wasn't that bad. It just sucked. I don't see him being injury prone.

      You don’t even need 1b because Tepper is the only one foolish enough to wheel that deal.    Player wise? Jake’s elbow. JR and Pep getting sideways, no Carruth, Cam’s shoulder, Luke’s concussions, it would be a long list of stuff. You can take it down to certain plays in games. Fox chasing 2 point conversions in the SB would be on my list. RMJr slipping at the end of that same game was not helpful.

      Top 10 worst qb rooms from CBS sports. Panthers number 9

      By frankw · Posted

      Ultimately this just amounts to heavy revisionist history. I mean you aren't talking to someone that just popped out the womb a week ago. I was here all throughout the predraft process. The overwhelming majority of the fanbase felt like this was a fine situation and the best situation for a rookie QB to go to compared to Houston for example. The hype for Young and our "rockstar" staff was off the charts. No one could dare speak cautious skepticism of his abilities or they would be neg repped into oblivion. Only after he had one of statistical worst rookie seasons of the last 25 years did we get this narrative now that his rookie season actually shouldn't count. Complete malarkey if you ask me.

      On the field? Since I guess it qualifies as multiple instances it might not count, but have the damn refs throw some flags on illegal hits to Cam's head in SB50. If that doesn't count, 1A. Cotchery caught it 1B. Kasey keeps that kickoff inbounds. Off the field? 1A. Team is sold to anyone but Tepper 1B. We have the patience not to mortgage the franchise on that Bryce trade. Stroudwpuldve been the better pick but he's not worth it either.
