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..

    • Jalen Coker? Played at Holy Cross? Is there another Jalen Coker? I'm not going to waste any more time on an UDFA, but the very first scouting report I went to confirms  what I saw on tape: Must prove he can get off the line against NFL size and strength. Monotonous route speed is unlikely to tilt pro coverage. Displays small gear-down when stemming the route. Needs to clean up the wasted motion getting into his breaks. It's not his biggest strength, it's literally his biggest weakness. 
    • Per NFL Website Jalen Coker Bio 2020-21: Tied for the team lead with 72 receiving yards (4 receptions, 18.0 per, TD). Played in 3 games with 2 starts in the team's spring season. School did not play in the fall due to COVID-19 concerns. 2021: Second-team All-Patriot League. Led the team with 51 receptions, 691 receiving yards (13.5 per, 4 TDs). Started all 13 games. 2022: First-team All-Patriot League. Led the team with 50 receptions, 912 receiving yards (18.2 per), 11 TDs. Played in 12 games with 11 starts.  2023: First-team Associated Press FCS All-American. First-team All-Patriot League. Finalist for the Walter Payton Award (top player in the FCS). Led the FCS with 15 receiving TDs (59 receptions for 1,040 yards, 17.6 per). Started all 11 games (2-3-1.5 rushing; 11-47-4.3 PR). Set school record with 31 career receiving TDs, 2,715 receiving yards Overview The evaluation for Coker boils down to balancing his pro-caliber size and ball skills against his level of competition and potential lack of NFL quickness and speed. His focus, ball-tracking and timing give him distinct advantages that other receivers lack, and his catch radius and hand strength helped him make mincemeat of Ivy League coverages near the goal line. Coker's deep speed appears to be average, so he will need to refine his route running to become better equipped to beat NFL defenders in space and open up workable windows for his quarterback. Coker is talented and productive, but the testing numbers will be huge for his draft slotting and chances in the league. Strengths Instinctive hand fighting in his release and at top of the route. Possesses robust ball skills across the board to win downfield. Fade monster with size, adjustments and sticky hands to dominate. Works back to the throw and is keenly aware of the sticks. Leverage and footwork for crisp cut-and-flatten on routes underneath. Weaknesses Must prove he can get off the line against NFL size and strength. Monotonous route speed is unlikely to tilt pro coverage. Displays small gear-down when stemming the route. Needs to clean up the wasted motion getting into his breaks. Below-average quickness with his run after catch.
    • Has Smitty said anything since we signed him?
