REPORT: Bryce Young and those close to him "very shocked" at the organization's decision to bench him.

It was the right move and I, too, am surprised they made it.

The team is bigger than Bryce. (Of course there isn't much that isn't).

But canales wasn't brought in just for Bryce. He was brought in to coach the Panthers. If Bruce is holding the team back, the team needs to move on.

If bryce wants his spot back, he's got to fugin earn it back. Find that fight and get some confidence. But don't expect the teamm to wait for you. They've been waiting too long as it is.

I imagine his body language this next week will be very telling of whether he's pissed, motivated, or just aloof/disinterested and content with the money.

Every single thing about him reminds me of Jimmy Clausen.  I remember after jimmy won his first game as a panther he gave John Skelton "advice" to improve his game, like he was any good whatsoever.  I get the vibe from him that Bryce thinks he's fine, nothing about his preparation going into the season made me think he learned from mistakes.  He's getting a steady stream of rainbows and sunshine pumped right up his ass so he has an overly inflated self worth. hopefully he improves with this wakeup call, but I dont think theres enough competitor in him, hes just a sulky spoiled kid who hasnt had to earn his place on a team since he was 12.

I was thinking about the similarities with Jimmy checkdown too. Sad thing is I think Clausen has probably shown more promise

I gotta say I still don't care for a lot of Hudders' inclination to go after Bryce's size in times like this. If anything I think he proved that his size didn't really matter. He is physically tough as nails and to give credit where it's due, every time he was flattened by a DE he popped back up.

He unfortunately sucks as a player and if he was 6'5'' 230lbs, he would still suck. Sure he has to hop to throw a screen and might struggle to see the field, but those are issues that can be overcome. Unfortunately I think his problems are mental, which is worse.

I would say fear of throwing deep/arm strength, not stepping up into the pocket (which might be height related), and being finger tackled by guys are size/strength related. That being said we never really thought about PJ's size as what held him back from being starter level and he's just 5'11" and maybe 10 pounds more muscle than BY. I think patience was over when he came back to OTA's and pretty much hadn't worked on getting bigger/stronger/faster and was so laid back about it. Just no urgency or hunger in his demeanor, makes him hard to root for or take seriously

He's been doing the jump throw on a regular basis out there with both feet off the ground.

Safe to say yes the size concerns were legitimate.

It is what it is.

I don't see how he can get in front of the media this week, even in the locker room come to think of it. Sounds distracting for the rest of the team and awkward for him

all the coachspeak, lord speak or whatever he is going to say isnt going to make this less awkward.  He knows the team gave up on him, the coach thinks he cannot win and now the fans know it.  You got move him for everyones sake

    • okay I found this and it sounds like my hopes for the first surgery being not such a great job seems like it could be actual reality.  I only hoped because that would give a better chance for recovery and ia a possible scenario so I just thought it could be possible. Had no real evidence of it. But I’ll be damned.    This is a detailed report of Brooks’ surgery and the condition of his knee after the failed repair.     https://x.com/jmthrivept/status/2055743129408704806?s= Sparked by some very good questions by @CoachspeakIndex, here’s some info on Jonathon Brooks: 1. Speculation that the first graft/ACLR by Dr. Cooper didn’t “take” or at least was too lax, leading to failure and re-tear. Brooks dealt with issues cutting, progressing in his rehab into the early stages of 2024 and then re-tore it late 2024, requiring a second ACLR in January 2025 (essentially revision). Notably, CAR prolonged Brooks’ rehab process through Sept-Oct due to issues progressing into the next stages of rehab. 2. Second surgery performed by Dr. Neal ElAttrache, who has extensive experience with revisions. He did a double bundle technique, harvesting graft from Brooks’ left patellar tendon and a strip of his right IT Band (his right patellar tendon had been utilized for the prior graft in 2023. The double bundle technique significantly increases rotational stability of the knee, leading to a stronger and more secure graft/reconstruction. Also to note, Brooks’ surgery wasn’t significantly delayed, meaning that the tunnels from his prior ACLR were in good shape and they didn’t need to perform bone grafts to fill in (would have delayed 2nd surgery by 5-6 months). Essentially, reading the tea leaves tells me that everything else except for the graft itself was still in good quality within his knee. Good sign for future.  3. Typically, you see a performance increase anywhere from 16-20 months post-revision. Brooks will be ~21 months out from his second surgery by the time Week 1 hits. His knee should be more stable and stronger this time around, with adequate time for healing and return to all movement patterns. I’m not viewing this situation as a typical “Player __ had TWO ACL tears, he’s cooked” situation. Rather, I’m viewing it as the first procedure failed, but the second procedure is significantly stronger and should allow him to return to form this time around. I don’t know why it posted as a link but there it is.  
    • Jackie, any more reps tomorrow, or is that it for this session?  thanks for the work
    • How can you say they aren’t trying to win now with all the moves made in free agency? Or is trading first round picks the only way to be win now? I’d be fine never trading another first round pick again, win now be damned.
