@CRA I owe you an apology. I thought being super upset at Canales/the team for not playing the starters much in the preseason was overblown. And I still don't know how much that would've changed things given how much of an abject disaster this team looked like yesterday, but it's clear as day they needed more live reps together. 

Tbh, we all knew they should've played the bulk of the first halves, AT MINIMUM, for every preseason game.  But I don't think this approach was made because Dave was so confident in what they were doing/showing in practice - I think they knew exactly how shitty it would look and felt the preseason wasn't gonna make a difference because Bryce is that bad and they're prepared to tank.

I mean, he literally gets blinded in the pocket.  You could see that Sunday.  He can't see on way too many plays.  So auto goes into survival mode and that is bad mechanics and breaking the pocket.  Bigger QB could see and deliver balls he can't. 

They are doing the opposite of what I'd do and it is probably because they asked him what plays he likes... what is he best at? 

I thought the best chance he would have would be in taking that away from him, putting him i that rigid frame of taking a quick decisive drop, and stepping straight into your (well) under 2.7 second throw. Change his routine so much he didn't have a chance to revert.

I know how radical that is but desperate situations call for desperate measures. He only has that run around backyard thing going for him otherwise. 

But he is 5'9" or something so... can't step up and know where it is going..

His pocket awareness is poor and thats being nice.

Member when I said I was being 100% honest in saying PJ > BY. 

You can go down the list- baker, darnold, stroud, levis, etc etc. Panthers org deserves B Y. 

PJ Walker is better than Bryce Young.  100%.  Now, I guess one could argue Bryce technically could get better.  But that's hope.

deep down we all know a lot of things.  

everyone knew when Bryce said he intentionally had nothing to do with football all offseason, hung out alone and watched TV.......that was a bad sign.  Some defended it.   But they knew. 

I mean, I'll argue their is a place in college for Dabo.  But I know there really isn't.  That way is dead.

I agree there would be hope if bryce had a killer drive, but he was too busy this off-season watching netflixs Acolyte on repeat.

    • You don’t even need 1b because Tepper is the only one foolish enough to wheel that deal.    Player wise? Jake’s elbow. JR and Pep getting sideways, no Carruth, Cam’s shoulder, Luke’s concussions, it would be a long list of stuff. You can take it down to certain plays in games. Fox chasing 2 point conversions in the SB would be on my list. RMJr slipping at the end of that same game was not helpful. 
    • Ultimately this just amounts to heavy revisionist history. I mean you aren't talking to someone that just popped out the womb a week ago. I was here all throughout the predraft process. The overwhelming majority of the fanbase felt like this was a fine situation and the best situation for a rookie QB to go to compared to Houston for example. The hype for Young and our "rockstar" staff was off the charts. No one could dare speak cautious skepticism of his abilities or they would be neg repped into oblivion. Only after he had one of statistical worst rookie seasons of the last 25 years did we get this narrative now that his rookie season actually shouldn't count. Complete malarkey if you ask me.
    • On the field? Since I guess it qualifies as multiple instances it might not count, but have the damn refs throw some flags on illegal hits to Cam's head in SB50. If that doesn't count, 1A. Cotchery caught it 1B. Kasey keeps that kickoff inbounds. Off the field? 1A. Team is sold to anyone but Tepper 1B. We have the patience not to mortgage the franchise on that Bryce trade. Stroudwpuldve been the better pick but he's not worth it either.
