I’ve never seen a bottom third offensive staff glazed so hard but expectations have never been lower for this franchise 

we had folks claiming Rhule/McAdoo going into 3 year was about to be something special......it is what it is.  They could hire me and you and a segment of the board would start to believe we might be hidden geniuses.

The new Bryce excuse

Bryce just needs an actual modern day NFL OC.  Not all these dudes that have never done the job before.   

Which, I mean, might not really be that much of an excuse but rather the painfully obvious.

Pretty sure Canales is running the offense.   I see you're already working the excuse, give Bryce a chance

I mean, Canales is a first year HC with a grand total of 1 year as OC under his belt running a bottom tier O.  Just doing the HC job is enough on his plate.  Will he call plays? Sure.  Input? Sure.  I mean, we just did that identical whole dance last year with a vet HC. 

I mean, Bryce Young is on his 2nd OC and both his OCs were rookies that had never been OC.  That's not really an excuse.  It's just pointing out the Panthers are doing everything on paper you would say a team shouldn't do for someone like Bryce......but since it's our team we argue it as okay. 

I can say that and it not be an excuse for Bryce.  I don't think Bryce has the tools to be a good NFL QB.  But the Panthers IMO are not doing the right things to make him be able to reach whatever ceiling he does have IMO.

We brought the HC in because he is excellent with QBs. Please no more knee jerk coaching scapegoats unless the OL can’t handle a stunt.

He just said Bryces arm talent is "Phenomenal"..and he makes "great, professional throws all over the field" lol. I see why they didn't trot this guy out there last week

 I mean, you know, they also saw on tape all the reasons he was selected where he was or whatever that bullshit was. Every decent play he made last year fits on a floppy disk. About two minutes worth. 

What are they supposed to say? They have to do that. I thought it was pretty faint praise on an enthusiasm level, but that could be my lack of it clouding things..

      2026 World Cup Thread

      By Joe Bear · Posted

      Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.

      LWOS on the FO's error--my word--on X...traits, timelines, Brazzell, & indications of improvement.

      Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly.

      Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
