Just remember that we aren’t paying our star QB over 200m dollars while also going 1-5. Tepper has screwed up most of what he has touched but at least he was cheap enough to not pay Watson.

I mean there’s a parallel universe about .5mm away from our current universe where that happened

I didn't want him. I said you don't see success at that size in the NFL. Plenty of us also didn't want him for various reasons. Mistakes were made. Just have to move on and try again.

It was a failure, not a mistake. A mistake, everything looks right and adds up but for one reason or another, it just doesn't work out. Nothing about Bryce looked right except for the results from a brand new, albeit questionable, test results (as far as NFL grading), that was supposed to announce the coming of the next GOAT. But instead there were inadequacies across every aspect of his game.

This was failure in such spectacular glory that the person(s) responsible should be banned from football operations forever.

It's a mistake in the sense that there is nothing there to salvage. The franchise needs to put him behind and move on, and I hope that is what happens. Not another year of well-let's-see-if-this-works.

How is this even a question? Did these people not watch Bryce Young at all?

Last week - him playing - pumped enough hot air into that waste of a uniform to make him float back to the surface for all the media trolls to notice, which sets them straight back to playing to the useful idiots. And gets those people chirping.

It was the guarantee part and Deshaun probably turned us down anyway.  Tepper definitely wanted to make that deal if not for that ridiculous fully guaranteed contract the Browns gave him.

I honestly feel bad for the browns.  They just can’t find a QB no matter what they do

He sure tried though. Remember that. Then he went on to do the second most stupid thing in the league.

Well they had Baker Mayfield and let him go. He is proving himself to be better a QB than anything they had in a long time. Actually- sounds similar to the Panthers as they too let Mayfield walk.

    • TAMU had such a weird draft. Usually you'd be bragging your ass off about three DL drafted in the top two rounds except that the narrative around all three was about how badly they were misused by TAMU. LOL
    • Many Panthers fans are already excited about second-round selection Nic Scourton for a variety of reasons including but not limited to: the Panthers needed to recharge the position group, Scourton had a late first-round grade according to many (including the Panthers), and he fit this season's modus operandi of stopping the run now and forever. However, Scourton was seen early on as one of the top-3 EDGE guys in this class but fell due to not having quite the season at Texas A&M as he did prior at Purdue (his sophomore season). It's been revealed since then a few different things that speak to that dip in production... Texas A&M, for one, requires each player on their line to be able to hold two gaps. This also explains why we saw low production across the board from the other two TA&M prospects but were still being heavily touted. Scourton was also said to have bulked up to 280lbs in order to fulfill this role and noticeably suffered from it. He's expected to play this season with Carolina at 255 - 260 which is very different from most situations. In most situations, teams are wanting players to gain 15 - 30. Since Scourton is going to be playing at his Purdue weight, I thought it would make sense to dive more into that tape. Y'all... we might have gotten something special... Let's take a quick peek at the stats before we start drooling over some highlights. First, a summary of the last two seasons for Scourton: Second, the game splits: The first thing that pops up for me is how Scourton's sack numbers were cut in half his senior year. We've already pointed out issues with scheme that impacted the TA&M linemen from racking up numbers, but seeing the game splits it's clear that Scourton didn't exactly feast on inferior competition while at Purdue. He had two two-sack games (vs. Michigan (2023 - 2024 champs), Indiana) and a 10-tackle game (vs. Nebraska). I also see the 2024 games where he went up against two top-10 tackles (Will Campbell from LSU + Armand Membou from Missouri) that I watched leading up to the draft.  For those who just want a summary: Scourton looked elite at Purdue and is going to be rotating in often during his rookie campaign. I originally had him penciled in as the second-string, strong-side edge defender behind Clowney but I wouldn't be surprised to see the team have him and Pat Jones II moving around when they rotate in in order to find where Nic looks best. Here's a highlight reel to replace that Cialias you lost in your recliner tonight:   For those that want a little more: Below I'll be linking the linking the five games I've mentioned above. If you plan to watch all of them, I highly recommend going in the order listed as that will allow you to see him vs. Campbell and then Membou while dealing with the aforementioned things he dealt with at Texas A&M before seeing him look unstoppable in 2023 when he was allowed to play both at a comfortable weight and in a scheme that didn't require him two cover two gaps nearly every play. vs. Will Campbell (2024) vs. Armand Membou (2024) vs. Nebraska (2023) vs. Michigan (2023)   vs. Indiana (2023)  
    • Yea, i honestly think he had almost as much say as Dan.  One of the main reasons I think that is Eager has said before he was ever with the Panthers, that you trade away picks for a qb and for any other position you do pick swaps, and that's exactly what we did.
