Listen to the sound when it hits Dickson's hands. Like a baseball catcher's mitt popping. That was an insane catch too. And he threw it while falling back, not even stepping into it.

 

There has never been any QB in Carolina with the pure arm talent that Cam had. Not even close.

Not going to lie, PTSD had my buttcheeks clinched with every big throw from Andy, but they were all… perfect. Perfect spiral, speed, placement. The most catchable throws I’ve ever seen in a panthers game. 0 hospital balls thrown. It was some alternate reality I’ve never experienced. Even when Jake or Cam had a game where they were dialed in, it felt like a damnit Jake/Cam throw was going to come at any moment.

I think you're a little overzealous to be honest. Andy had a great game no doubt but there were also 2-3 dropped INTs. The Stat line could've ended up looking a lot different.

Well deserved.

Meanwhile, me thinking back at all the folks who cooked up constant excuses for Bryce. It's the staff, it's the system, it's the OL, it's the receivers, never mind that Dalton threw for damn near 400 yards against Seattle Bryce could do that too with that many attempts...

And Stroud would suck here.

Cam was finger breaker no doubt. Arm talent vs arm strength, I might quibble because of those fastballs to guys 10 yards away. Stuff like that. 

But I've been seeing most of the deep balls that connect, the receiver is slowing down to wait for them just about always. Lets those DBs maybe have a second chance, but that wasn't a problem with Cam. 

What's this about curving a football? Only thing I've ever known about that was from the wind.

I mean, he would probably have last year. That was utter chaos.

The crime is we will never know. 

If he did, it would have been an entirely different suck. He can throw the ball at least, his form is right he would have been better for the same reasons Dalton was better.

Still, lost, still got beat up, so much more NFL game. We'd have seen his ability. That's a hill to defend for me.

Yeah, I mean it's hard to envision him being worse than Bryce was. I just don't know if it is better enough to really have mattered much.

It doesn't matter. It is what it is now.

The Cam bullet time throw he curved around the Atlanta defender to…a TE I forget which, is one of my all time favorite throws.

Yep, that’s the one. Insane throw.

    • overall agree on the draft grade as a whole on on each pick, but every time I read (and I have read it more than once) that we "gave up two firsts" for Bryce, I am confused. We gave up the 2024 first, but we swapped 2023 firsts, so we didn't give up anything there. We did give up our former first rounder in DJ, but I don't think thats what you mean as one of the "firsts" we gave up.
    • Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
