Should be a fun low scoring, game. Watch it turn out now to a shootout. 

Anyway, I see the Patriots are doing it right with the #3 pick in the draft. In practice Maye is getting 30 percent of first team reps. Learning behind a seasoned vet. They don't want to rush and ruin this kid. It will be interesting to see how he progresses. Wish we would have done that with Young. 

 

 

 

 

 

There is no right or wrong way.  Sitting for a year or two has worked, and not worked.  Starting immediately has worked and not worked.  Sometimes it makes a difference, sometimes I think the qb was going to eventually be good or bad regardless and all this overthinking about the right or wrong way to do it had minimal impact either way.

Yes, It really depends on the player. Vick, Love, Rodgers (on the top of my head) sat and they turned out well. Newton started day 1 and was fire. 

I still believe Young would have benefited from sitting for a year. I believe it's better for them long term. Young is no Cam. 

The rookie salary cap also plays a huge part as well. Its cheaper to find out now one way or another.

I think sitting can help if you have the tools and need some seasoning to process things at the NFL level, but if you just flat out lack the physical perquisites you're just gonna suck.

      The Bryce Young "Game Winning Drive" narrative needs to end

      I'm not a huge fan of BY, but he does have some clutchness developing

      While you're correct, people are just sick of being told, "you don't understand this, you're dumb" despite what their eyes say. This applies to the Panthers and anything else in life. This board can be a miserable place, but this isn't the old days anymore because Social Media & Reddit have hijacked old-school forum users.  I have in the last year or so taken a massive step back from Social Media & Reddit. Deleted accounts on both, I only have X/Twitter now. But I was looking for an outlet for Panthers talk and I did not want to do that on X much at all. There are only two legitimate outlets for that I've found, here and SB Nation. SB Nation I used to partake in, but they absolutely bumble-f*cked the comments section, and I like the setup of the posts + comments, as opposed to article + comments. Also, as others have pointed out, being a Panthers fan has been a horrendous existence since Cam left. Just an awful crew of coaches, draft picks, trading away great players, etc. It's been miserable.  Ever since Tepper bought the team, I hoped that he commit to a full rebuild. He never did, he thought there were shortcuts and so did Rhule. This hamstrung us for years, and then he massively overstepped with the BY trade.  This ruined the team building, because there was no depth, and then it ruined nuanced BY discussions because of the insane haul we gave up. He will never live up to that, I think many people are finally wrapping their heads around that now which is good. The best thing for this board to get better is for the Panthers to win more, draft well, and to stay committed to crawling through this Andy Dufrense poop-pipe to escape the depths of NFL hell. It will be ugly and stink along the way, but you can see already this year if we commit to drafting then the team and the vibes can turn around quicker than you think.  I am extremely optimistic about the draft class this season, it's something to watch, talk about, and celebrate. It also gives Dan and I think by extension Dave Canales more of a leash, which I think we need to give them and grant them the time to turn this boat around.

      I was just dispelling the "he can't throw past 25 yards" focus jfra.
