I was really pulling for Bryce to work out, looks like the ineptness of this franchise has claimed another victim. I’m sure all the haters who didn’t like Bryce to begin with will be celebrating.

I'm celebrating because I'm positively surprised that we made the right call here. I'm genuinely shocked we aren't sunk cost fallacy-ing this and sticking with Bryce. 

We have to move on. We're taking the biggest L in the history of the NFL. But it had to be done. And the sooner the better.

you have to release him.

you can't bench him and not. i don't know i can't really explain it. like when they moved on from Jake they had to release him, not just bench him.

I seriously doubt anybody would trade for him, especially not if Dalton looks even halfway decent this Sunday.

Okay now if Dalton comes out and throws for another 300+ and even wins the game does the team trot Bryce back out afterwards??

I mean after all, if Dalton does that surely that means Bryce could too right??

You bench a starter, you leave him benched.

Bryce has always came off as a 'coach's son' to me. I feel like he's had a lot of his success come easily, and much of it was probably pushed for by people around him, his parents. This year, the way his demeanor has appeared, I don't know if he really loves the game. He seems legitimately depressed when I see him suited up. He doesn't look like he wants to be out there.

In the off-season he stated that he spent much of his free time away from football. He just did 'normal' things, watched movies, Netflix, shopped a bit, and was a 'homebody' (you can search for the articles talking about this if you want to source it). It wouldn't surprise me if he just walked away from the game entirely, and that's okay.

Had to be done. He's playing so poorly you can't evaluate and develop you players otherwise.  Defense is always on the field so you can't truly judge them, and the line is blocking and guys look like their getting open but can't get the ball.

If he's truly the problem we replace him with a guy next year(Cam Ward) and build around him

Yes he is.

I don't expect this to suddenly turn the Panthers into a good team but the reality is that Young just isn't an NFL quarterback.

It was always going to be an uphill battle with him no matter what due to the inferior physical tools. Was a bad pick at that spot from the start that looks even worse now.

      Should Canalas bring someone else in to call offensive plays?

      By Jackson113.2 · Posted

      MORGAN ON PLAY CALLER FOR CANALES   "I think that's really his [Canales'] call," he stated. "I think if he wants to promote somebody into being the play-caller or bring somebody from the outside. We haven't really talked about that. But that is something that I'm sure we'll talk about. We talk about every decision together. If he feels like he needs to add somebody or promote somebody into being the play-caller, then I trust him."

      Your Feelings on Bryce Through 3 Seasons? (POLL)

      I'm looking at the final drive, and that's where I'm laying the blame at Bryce's feet. Stepping up to the line, 38 seconds left, 3 time outs on the clock. 30 yards needed to attempt a FG. It's not Bryce's job to call the plays, that's DC's and it was terrible play calling.  It's Bryce's job to read what the defense is giving him at the line. The middle of the field is open. Rams are guarding against the deep ball and bringing pressure leaving the middle of the field ripe for the taking. Knowing his line not holding up for long, Bryce should have read the defense, called the audible, and thrown to the middle of the field for 6- 8 yards, like you said, quick slants would have worked. Then run either hurry up or call a TO. We had time. He has to make the adjustments. Any QB has to make the adjustments.  The pass Horn dropped hit his hands but was at his knees. Should he have slid and caught it? Probably. Was the pass a good one? No it wasn't. Both players were at fault, not just Horn. Let's not pretend that Bryce threw a beautiful pass that hit the receiver chest high right in the hands in perfect stride because that damn sure wasn't the throw.  The defense didn't choke away a lead. They never had a real lead. Choking away a lead is being up by multiple scores late in the 4th and losing. We were up by 4 and handed the ball back to a potential MVP with an All pro WR and potential future HoF WR2. One score games in the 4th are a slug fest. 28-3. That's choking away a lead.  I don't solely blame Bryce for the game, but you seem to solely blame the defense for the game because they went to prevent after losing Horn. You are forgetting the short field that the offense left them that led to the early Puka TD on one of our 2 failed 4th down conversions. Our defense has been given very limited resources over the past 3 years while we have tried to put everything possible around Bryce. We added a little bit to the D this year after giving up a NFL record in points last year. Our defense overachieved based on what they've been given to work with.
