Dalton Honeymoon Over

Welp, that was a fun 3 weeks. We'll always have the Raiders game and the high that ensued afterwards. Time to hear the stans all call for Bryce to be back next week.

Brian St. Pierre doing anything? Bust Young doesn't need to be out there ever again. The only *good* that will come from him is losing enough to get the #1 pick again. Dalton might still have a win or 2 in him.

Dalton was not the main problem today.  Poor game planning, poor/no adjustments, shoddy defense and injuries.  Dalton didn't have a stellar day, but he is way down the list of reasons for today's failure.

That is very fair. I'm not trying to sound negative on Dalton, I do think he is washed at this point, and he didn't really elevate any of the team to overcome or mitigate some of those negatives either.

I feel like i'm seeing this a lot and while I agree this was obviously dalton's worse start the defense was the big problem today. Between that, drops and injuries along the offensive line we really didn't stand a chance no matter how well dalton played

Yeah, Dalton was alright, not great, not horrible. Huge list of bigger reasons why the Panthers lost.

Terrible gameplan and playcalling. Injuries. Drops. OLine letting untouched free rushers constantly. Abandoned the running game. Stupid procedural penalties that put them in bad down/distance.

And do we even need to talk about the defense FFS

If bryce steps back on that field I'm done this year and so is majority of the fanbase. 

Why anybody dense enough to think the overall fans and probably the players want to go back to last year and the first 2 games of this season is beyond me.

Lastly, there were never any insane expectations set on Dalton to act like it was some sort of honeymoon.  We weren't even a high school offense with bryce out there. The graph at the beginning of the game said it all. 

If y’all aren’t already done then you’re just hopeless fools. It’s a bad roster no matter the QB.

I have no idea how they justify putting Bust Young back on the field. Even in an injury situation. He should be #3 right now.

There was a tiny bit of expectations about Dalton after the Raiders game. The win felt good, so there's that, but there was a little bit of maybe they can win 6 or so more games. It wasn't just here though.

Bad matchups, depleted defense, Bears defense is very good one.  Just an overall recipe for disaster.  We had a running game but fell behind and couldn't play catchup against one of the best pass-defense's in the league.  

The rookies didn't seem terrible for needing to carry the team.  I'll give them that.

    • This is gonna be longest six weeks ever 
    • This 1000%.  Hey who wants to sign with the guy that couldn't even get his client the guaranteed contract of a 3rd round pick?  Lmao
    • I don't think it's any weird or unique clause, it's the offset language, same thing so many contract disputes are over. It just means that including it, if a player is cut and then signed by another team, the original team would be able to subtract how much they're getting paid by the new team from what they still owe him on their guaranteed money. For example, it's why Russell Wilson signed for the minimum last year with the Steelers as that was included in his Denver contract.  So if he signed with the Steelers for $1 million, he'd get $1 million less from the Broncos, if it was $2 million, he'd get $2 million less, basically he couldn't make any more money than he was already going to make, so you sign for the minimum to not take unnecessary cap room from your new team while giving extra cap room to your old one. The problem with trying to include it in rookie deals is that a team trying to include it, it says they think they don't really believe the player will make it 4 years with the team before they cut them.  And this usually comes up with one or two rookies in most seasons, the difference is it's usually handled much more quietly and not as public and ugly as this one. The other difference is that it's happening with the Bengals, which I believe I saw are one of the few (or only?) team that doesn't have protections for rookies in rookie and mini camps to be able to participate even if they haven't signed their contract yet.  The other teams have injury protections that allow them to still play, but the Bengals do not, which is also why this one is so public and ugly, as most the time this happens, the rookie is still participating in the rookie and subsequent mini camps, giving them more time to get the contract done before training camp when they'd then hold out.
