You cannot start Bryce Young again. He is not an NFL player.

Guaranteed if we started the Red Rifle week 2 just like last year the O is more functional.  And Dalton is trash. 

I said that last year, but the Huddle opted to develop Bryce over being competitive and winning some games.  On the bright side, we now know Bryce is trash too.  Nothing further to develop and time to cut bait.  Oh boy, only 17 more weeks of Panthers misery.  Hooray!!!!

I was a Bryce believer all off-season. But he literally looks no better at all than last year. Still badly misses throws more often than not. For an alleged superprocessor he looks lost out there. He was protected better today than he was last year and he still looked godawful. It is obvious his size is a detriment. We know what he is now and he is not a starting QB. I’m not sure he is even good enough to be a decent backup.

The dude is absolutely terrified. It's kind of sad to watch, I feel bad for the kid. This franchise squashed everything he ever knew about football.

He's a multi-millionaire.

Why would you feel bad for him? He's literally stealing a living and is set up for life.

I don’t feel bad for him one bit, he’s making more this year alone than I’ll ever make. He’s playing a sport for a living. Dudes got it made

At some point you have to bench the guy. You lose credibility in the locker room if you don't. Hell, we might already be there. This team played like a team that knew they had no opportunity to compete today.

This result has been coming all offseason.

They doubled down on the QB that most saw couldn't compete at this level and stripped the defence (which was already a poor unit - Evero just worked miracles) to do it.

Now you have a lot of money / Draft picks invested in the OLine / RB / WR rooms and nothing left over for the defence.

The Saints moved the ball at will today and they're far from the best offence we'll play this season. It's going to be a blood bath.

Yeah, we spent a LOT of money on guards to put in front of Bryce.

    • Ok fair to judge only his starts.  But you do acknowledge that going from "he's waaaay above league average in a number of categories" to "here's a single stat where he's above league average (not "waaaay") and another where he is exactly at the league average" is a pretty significant backpedal, no?  I'm guessing he's probably in the ~10th range for completion percentage too if we're only looking at starts (I'm too lazy to isolate his starts and do the calculations), so I'll grant you that one too.  But I don't think completion percentage is all that meaningful as a standalone stat if it isn't bolstered by good TD%, Y/A, etc. On that note, for how much people like posting Passing Charts in here (*cough* CRA) - if you peep Shough's passing charts, he hasn't completed a single 20+ yard pass in the past 3 games combined.  His last one was in Week 13 against the Dolphins, which was a single pass of 24 yards.  I just want to be consistent in how we apply our standards - I think it's always been warranted to criticize Bryce for it (even dating back to his rookie season), but do we suddenly not care about that with Shough? And yeah I did acknowledge that Saints' fans have reason to be excited about him and complimented his poise, which is giving my props.  Still not sure I agree that he looks better than a "ton" of QBs nor do I think you or anyone have really demonstrated that.  I think you are generally one of the more reasonable level-headed posters which is why I'm confused at what I consider to be rather hyperbolic language about Shough.
    • I don't disagree with you, but want to point out that Tremble's strong suit has always been blocking. Case and point: on Horn's 25 yard run, he lays down not 1 but 2 nice blocks...and is looking for #3! https://www.panthers.com/video/jimmy-horn-jr-s-25-yard-run-gives-panthers-red-zone-access-on-first-drive
    • It is a popularity contest.  The selection does have meaning though. It is also 1 of the criteria that is considered for the HOF. The game does not have any significance. The team hasn't been to the playoffs in nearly a decade. That's why they don't get primetime national coverage. To the victors go the spoils.
