REPORT: Panthers changed the offense 3 times last season

Yall are so goofy sometimes with your tin hat theories, stemming from a wholehearted disdain for the current QB1.

So they changed the offense 3 times before they saw Bryce play in it, because Bryce couldn't play in it? Let that sink in for a sec. Just relax and give the guy a chance. A real chance. Not last season's chance. That was crap from the beginning. Well, appears to have been crap since before the beginning. 

Reality is probably closer to disagreements in scheme and play design. Also, there may have been an idea of whether or not they were designing an offense for a rookie vs a 13 year vet. There is a difference, as alluded to in the article. Perhaps they were creating an offense for Dalton, but Tepper forced them to play Bryce even though he wasn't ready for that playbook. I can see that. 

But I'll say this. Yall are consistent. I always know what to expect. Bryce can't throw downfield, deep outs, over the middle, and he's too slow and easy to tackle. How in the heck did this guy win a Heisman as an underclassman, or become the top QB recruit in his class, and the #1 pick in the draft? He's been scheming the system since middle school. Had them all fooled except you. Gotcha.

So pretty much the coaching staff realized that Bryce wasn't the elite processor everyone claimed him to be then realized that he can't throw it deep. I guess that checks out as to why they changed it that many times.

This part, yeah. Probably close to the truth but to understand the hostility, those team officials clearly claimed what they claimed. I won’t cite it incorrectly going off my memory but everyone should remember the stuff Reich, Fitterer, Tepper, and others were talking. He was oversold, and that doesn’t breed trust.

Being lied to breeds resentment. Plain and simple. People are giving him a chance this year even if they lack faith because they pretty much have to.

    • Aho…come out and prove me wrong boy. 
    • I mean, I hear what y'all are saying, but Derrick could have been positive without being negative.  He essentially accused people of not seeing Bryce's improvement because of their desire to not be wrong. He could've kept it about Bryce and the team. For example, he could've said: "Bryce has made strides, and we believe in him. This coming season, his continued improvement will turn a lot of people into believers."  That would've been supportive of his teammate and sent a message to the doubters. That being said, his tact almost summoned and left the door ajar for more skepticism. That's my take anyway. Bryce has improved from the bottom to perhaps skirting the line between the bottom third and mid-third at best...after three seasons. We've all seen it. Yay! In my mind, Bryce has still got a long way to go and a short time to get there, but my expectations are top five--at least top 10--always! Yes, I am a fan, so there's that, but I don't believe it's unreasonable to expect excellence. Hopefully the Panthers FO has the same mindset (and that doesn't even necessarily have anything to do with what we gave up to acquire him). That is the lens I'm looking through. Derrick Brown has his homer glasses on. He just needs to be more diplomatic and thoughtful with his words in my opinion, but I get it that he's a good teammate.
    • I have no doubt the Canes will come out like gangbusters, huge bounce back from game one - my only concern is Freddie, if he lets in a couple of softies and Dobes stays hot we could be in trouble.
