Also, I've never said this, but I might as well now.

I feel like the shoulder injury from college did more damage to Bryce than he let on.

Not throwing at the combine should have taken him off our board. If he played anywhere other than Alabama it would have. Truth.

Not coping, read my posts about Bryce, he’s terrible. My point is the root issue isn’t Bryce, it’s Tepper and his decision making in hiring, etc. Morgan and Canales are fuging terrible too and simply switching QBs will not solve anything. We’ll have 1st overall pick next year and whatever QB we take will be a bust if the decision is made by Tepper/his hires. People here think Canales/Morgan will succeed once they get rid of Bryce are the ones coping. The Panthers will never see success with Tepper and those 2 running things.

Respectfully, he's the worst player on any field.

Lotta people should be preparing their apologies to Frank Reich

This is the offense that Tepper wants Bryce to run, which is dink and  dunk like Drew Brees. The problem is there is no threat of the down field deep throw.

they need to be able to air it out to keep the defense honest.

I disagree with the concept of waiting for an elite QB. You go with what you have, and do the best with it. That actually works for people if they are good at their jobs. 
 

edit: who was Your elite QB the last time we had a shot at one? That poo worked so good the last time we went that route.

The last time we had a chance at an Elite QB was Cam and we took him, I'd say it worked out well.

We could have taken Stroud, but even he wasn't expected to be that type of guy, or else the Bears would have kept the pick and took him themselves.

Show me a team that has had long term sustained success with a non elite QB prospect or getting lucky and hitting on a mid round QB (like a Russell Wilson with Seattle)?

It doesn't happen, you can't win in the NFL without a QB and you don't get a QB unless you have a high draft pick with elite options, or just flat out luck into a situation.  Trying to force a square peg into a round hole to get your QB solution NEVER works in this league.

    • In all honesty, he should probably get that checked out. It might be (Arnold Schwarzenegger voice) "a tuuumaaa" 
    • Ah yes, my bad. It's easy to forget those handful of games Frank coached. LOL 
    • I've seen the comp a few times, and I feel there is a lot to it. Our situation is a lot like Kansas City was pre-Mahomes (without the HOF HC) Whether you like them or not, D&D are building something here.  They had a strong draft.  The team is slowly coming together, developing some identity, and has some decent blue chip parts.  Brown, Horn, McMillan, and a good OL situation that we should keep fortifying every year.  It's not much yet, but growing.    Bryce is in that Alex Smith spot.  A top draft pick, has never been overly impressive, but you can win games when he's safe with the ball.  You're not winning because of him - maybe once in a blue moon.  From time to time he's shown the ability to orchestrate some plays and lead drives.  I just don't see anything that is like - "oh snap, yeah don't let him go, he's ours".  He'll make a solid/good throw every now and again, but man, it is a struggle a lot of the time to watch.  Some terrible performances to speak of, heck he's already been benched once during year 2.      He should in no way preclude you from flirting with what else is out there.  This is not a marriage.  If you're in position (or trade range) for a guy you REALLY like come draft day, you shoot your shot. If we are in the draft process, and suddenly realize QB3-4 is a guy we really like, that's when you make a modest jump from like 16 to 11 or something like that.  Just like the Bills did for Allen, like the Chiefs did for Mahomes.  This is nothing magical that plants this franchise savior title on them, this is not some stupid trade-- it's an easy trade up to get a guy you like w/a big ceiling.  It's all player dependent and coaching/development driven.  If we don't like a QB, by all means fortify the front-7, get an awesome OLB or ILB prospect.   But we're on year 3, you kind of know what you're getting at this point.  Mostly sub-200 yard performances, low YPA, bad technique, poor mechanics, some decent stuff sprinkled in, but some bad turnover heavy ones that kill the team's momentum.  Again, run with him if there's no complete disaster that happens the remainder of the season, but don't close the door on something better just because of the investment or debatable performances.
