I don't care how they make it work as long as they make it work.

Honestly, no one should.

Life doesn't often fit into the nice tidy boxes we all think it should and football is the same way.

I get it, we have this perception of how it's all supposed to be done, but it just doesn't often work out like that.

I stead of bitching and moaning about how it doesn't look like we think it should, maybe just sit back and let them figure it out. It does matter how it should have been. Only thing that matters is accepting how it is and figuring it out from there.

the Panthers drafted him last year #1 overall and gave up a fortune for him.   Now you got folks talking about him like he is PJ Walker who we plugged out of FA.  

I don't think he's PJ Walker by no stretch of the imagination.  However unless we significant progress he shouldn't have been the #1 overall pick either.

Would you call him a franchise QB or a QB that just needs to manage the game plan?

FYI, I'm pulling for him to prove me wrong but at this moment a solid game manager is the best we can hope for.

Damn the bar is low for this franchise if this is honesty that you 'gotta love'. Like, what else is he going to say? 

I'm more concerned that all they've done is "played catch" at a voluntary workout when Stroud and Diggs immediately got together on their own after that trade and started working.

That's leadership.

Any jabroni can hold it together making millions while losing.

The elite QB's want to win and will do whatever it takes and sacrifice their own time to do so.

That is what made Stroud an MVP candidate at one point last year as a rookie despite all the naysayers portraying him as lacking IQ and ironically leadership ability.

Eh, I'm pretty cynical about the franchise at the moment but I'm not going to leap to a negative conclusion and assume that Canales' words are to be taken literally. However, if it's been stated explicitly somewhere that this is their first time working together then that changes the complexion of the answer.

My concern is that Bryce is going to require a lot of premium resources to make his style of play work. He needs first and second round talent.

His game is: play breaks down, his beast o line buys him half an hour of scramble time and his first round WR makes magic happen.

Unless Morgan and co are draft and FA wizards, the defense will be filled with a stud here and there, but mostly JAGs. It’s damn near impossible to win a championship with a crap defense. 

in this instance, Bryce wins but panthers lose. We win 7 to 11 games a year, just because we’re so loaded on O. Ground game goes for 180 yards and 3 TDs a game behind a nasty line. Defense gives up 21 on the regular.

      Can we get to 9-8?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.

      Eight of Bryce Young's nine wins have come off game-winning drives

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand.

      Trade Chuba?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
