I want my Panthers to get better.  I also want to see what Bryce can do.  Bryce is the key this season.

If he is able to make the plays when they are provided (and there will be a LOT of running the ball), then I think we'll be better.  Maybe not winning more than 4 games, but that's double what we did last year.

If Bryce poos the bed and doesn't look like an NFL staring QB, then he helps us out to a top 3 pick where we can get a high level QB prospect and try again.

That's how I look at the season.  I HOPE that Bryce and Canales are able to have a productive season, that the Panthers are fun to watch and surprise a few people.  I know we're not deep enough to be good, but I'd like a few surprises here and there.

But if not, then Canales gets to pick his last QB in Carolina.  He'll either get his guy and do well, or he'll be out after year 3 or so.

i haven't been incredibly encouraged by what little i saw the first couple weeks of TC, so i haven't really been keeping up with them for a little while. I'm hoping that things will look better when the season starts. i do know my enthusiasm has waned a little. i think they are capable of winning. i just don't know that they will have it figured out for a while.

all i hope for at this point is they at least make it a little entertaining.

I have embraced the fact trainwrecks provide their own form of entertainment.

If we are as bad as predicted 

I think we are back in the hunt for a head coach by week 10

 

Nah.  Blame cycles are a thing.  Carolina most likely just has to acknowledge they don’t have a QB to compete.

nah....it will be obvious that coaching isn't the problem. they won't bail on Canales. it will be QB that becomes the priority next year.

Just now I was watching that fluky 88 yard touchdown from St Pierre to Gettis against Baltimore in the 2010 game. Honestly can't remember the last time a play that exciting has happened here. I guess maybe the Cam return but I think we all knew deep inside that it wasn't going to last. That it was just a fleeting feeling. But that TD... the crowd sounded so lively compared to it's (rightfully) nonexistent state today. It was a hell of a play. 

Then something dawned on me. Good god. I'm feeling nostalgic for 2010. When that realization hit... all I could think to myself was "damn."

Was that the same game with the back to back pick sixes?

There are many examples, because you're skipping over a lot of seasons (and a few winning ones).

But the most notable for me was Luke picking off Russell Wilson and returning it for a touchdown in the 2015 NFC Divisional Playoff against the Seahawks. The stadium was shaking, it was so loud and active.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By SmokinwithWilly · Posted

      Mel Kiper said he would retire if Jimmy Clausen wasn't a successful NFL starter too. Just because the experts make a claim doesnt mean it's true either.  Bryce may be a serviceable QB for someone. Serviceable QBs don't bring you a perennial winner or lead you to the playoffs over and over. Serviceable QBs also dont get 50m plus per year deals which is what a Bryce extension would look like.  The stats show he hasn't been even a serviceable QB in the 3 years he's been here. The eye test shows he hasn't put together 2 franchise QB salary games back to back in 3 years.  Complain all you want about people being negative, but people pointing out that Bryce is held to a different standard than anyone else on the team isn't complaining. It's stating the obvious.

      We have big bodied WRs and 3 TEs who all have potential and each bring something different to the table. I never saw the need to go out there and try and find a new starting TE.  While it's nice to have a guy like McBride, Bowers, etc, I think a team's better use of the cap is by having TEs on rookie contracts or cheap vets, not having to pay elite TE money.
