They Say a Picture is Worth 1000 Words...

Multiple things at play here.

Lack of field vision due to his size.

This play is eerily similar to one he had in camp where he threw a pass toward 2 defenders flanking one WR and was instantly picked. Then just casually walked away. He does not want to be there. He is checked out. He is done.

Throwing with anticipation is throwing blindly for Bryce. Add in the terrible footwork and physical ability and you have a top 5 all time bust.

I think McShat was the only guy still making excuses last week but it's time for the 'experts' to come forward and eat some crow. They put that guy on a pedestal and created the ridiculous amd lazy narratives on him.

Maybe everyone should stop listening to the media mouth breathers and use their own 2 eyes.

And yet they never do. I don't tune in to most of the predraft BS. So much noise and so little quality. Young's school film showed the same obvious things we saw yesterday but then all the school rah rah stuff gets injected when it stopped mattering when they declared.

Agents pay media analysts to sell a client all the time. The same thing happens around draft time. See Young last year. Just look at the Sanders hype going on right now. I tried to watch the game but the slobbering over him made it impossible to watch. Wait until the offseason when Dion will be out there selling them both, and folks are already buying it. You cannot let the media tell you who's the best you must figure it out for yourself. Good luck!

They do but the job Bryce's did was amazing. They got most people to overlook everything.

I've tuned out and just laugh about the forced narratives. The film shows plenty, character stuff is the only real unknown after that. Add in the drafting this team has had under Tepper and what's the point in wasting time looking at guys these dopes will never take? If they are amazing just save your time because they are not coming here.

All I know is that the top qb as per the media is rarely ever the best of the bunch. It's usually the 2nd or 3rd ranked guy according to the "professionals" that will always make it in the league in some form or fashion.  Not their anointed pick.

it isn't his size.  He clearly has line of sight with the receiver and the underneath defender, but he chose to throw it to the receiver breaking in on a defender with inside leverage.  This is not even a rookie mistake. it's a straight up bonehead play.  The other being taking the sack and not throwing the ball away.  He was running for his life and came to the sidelines with a defender coming at him.  Get rid of the ball.  He's just not playing smart.

When we picked Cam in 2011 a lot of the media talking heads were trying to hype up Blaine Gabbert #1. Like c'mon... really?

    • I personally think you are trying to talk yourself into circles here... It's ok to say Bryce played incredible the last 5 weeks... I know there are plenty of people on this board who desperately need the doom-and-gloom narrative, but I genuinely question how much NFL QB play some of these people really have watched when they still question him being the unquestioned starter for next year...  Again, that being said, no one is crowning him at all. I think Bryce is one of the best stories going into 2025 bc his season last year was so outlandishly unprecedented. It's totally fair to personally not believe in Bryce. Plenty of sports "journalists" need to write stories, and that's an easy narrative path... But I think that actual people in the know rank Bryce much higher. That's the fun thing about sports... we shall see!
    • Regardless of how we got here, any rational fan should be excited by how well Bryce played down the stretch. Anyone not happy about that level of play either doesn't know what they're looking at, or they're still trying to drive tired narratives. Obviously, Cam had an all-time rookie season, and I'm not putting the two in the same basket yet, but as someone who has watched every snap of Panthers football since the start of the new millennium (Im old), Bryce was playing at a higher level at the end of 2024 than Cam was at the end of 2012 (his 2nd season). Cam continued to develop into MVP form, something Bryce has to prove, but as someone who watched both (and will stan for Cam always), Bryce was playing at a higher level to end year 2 than Cam did.  Go watch the film if you dont believe me. None of that means anything for the future. But the people who said BY9 couldnt play in this league are wrong.   That being said, the only thing that matters is this year. #20 is perfectly fair IMO going into the season. I mean think about it, how would you rank him??!  His in-season turnaround is one of the wildest things I've ever seen... how do you rank a guy who looked like a massive bust in September and by January was consistently playing at a top 10 level? My excitement level is pretty damn high heading into this season. There were throws from the Chiefs game onward where Bryce had Drew Brees levels of anticipation. Im excited to see what he can do with a full deck on offense, something we really never gave Cam. Really hope and expect Bryce to move up this list this season.  
    • Not really, the only QB's (other than Anthony Richardson) ranked below him are new to their teams as a placeholder starter or drafted in 2024 or 2025, not a lot of gymnastics to get there. It's not about how many that is, if it's 20, 12, or 2... It means there isn't a QB who's team has committed to them for the long term right now that they have ranked below Bryce. That's not a great thing.
