I have accepted that Bryce is a bust

It was inevitable with his talent level. 

They also don't keep a #3 on the active roster so I'm not convinced everyone in that house understands how bad of an NFL player Young is yet. I get the feeling he is 'in training' and that is horrifying because it shows a complete lack of understanding of talent by people who still run the team. 

This chapter isn't over yet but I will be celebrating when it is.

Don't tell anyone. There's still people who think he's great so they just might be able to trade him for something, anything really. 

I am not sure they work for any of the 31 other teams. If my team thought that I'd be afraid to trust those people with any football decisions.

I hope Tepper listens to the ones we have - instead of firing them because they can't see his greatness., .

The decision around Bryce could speak volumes to the new Front Office. If we hold onto him and try to trot him out again next year after sitting, pack it up we're never changing. If we finally acknowledge he's a sunk cost and ship him out for literally whatever we can get? Maybe we have a shot at being competent again.

Some team will take a chance on him. You just have to find one desperate enough to trade something for him. He's here for another season at least. Most likely as qb3 if he is just due to that contract acceleration clause if nothing else.

If it’s me, Bryce doesn’t take another single snap. The last time he took the field, he actually had some completions. This move may have shown a glimmer of potential for some GM in the league who is willing to cough up a 4th round pick. 

If he takes the field again, everyone will see that it was just a complete fluke. Very slick move getting some completions in garbage time with soft coverages from someone you’re desperately trying to trade. 5D chess move.

    • Who is "they"?  Who in the media still argues that Bryce Young could reach the levels that people thought he would before the draft? I mean, nobody is going to come outright and bash the kid.  By all accounts he's a good dude and I think that is why you don't see the media come after him like they did Zach Wilson.
    • It started during the Denver game after that first drive. i don’t think the panthers got a first down again until the fourth quarter. 
    • The Panthers will finish with at least 7-8 wins.  So that leaves them with only two "smart" choices in my opinion: 1. Sign a reasonably priced free agent QB and see if they are better than Bryce Young in training camp - The issue is there will be very little options.  There is almost no way the Colts let Daniel Jones walk.  Rodgers, Flacco, and Wilson will likely retire (and is Wilson better than Bryce anyway?).  Winston is under contract with the Giants for another year.  That leaves Mariota, which I'm all for, but the Commanders will make a big push to keep him given Daniels' injury history.  Outside of him, there is literally nobody else. 2. Stick with Bryce Young for one more year - Nobody wants this to happen, but the Panthers won't be in a position to draft one in the first round and it isn't a strong class to begin with.  Mendoza, Simpson (and do we really want an Alabama QB?), and Moore will likely all be off the board by the time we pick.  Bryce isn't good, but we are still 5-4.  I'd rather continue to build the rest of the team than reach for a QB.  Then we could set ourselves up nicely in 2027 to make a splash play if we choose.  This is how we should have approached years past; stuck with Kyle Allen or Sam Darnold or Teddy Bridgewater and kept building the team until we were ready to make a splash.  But every year we panicked and did something stupid. There is the idea you could throw a dart at a guy in the later arounds, but IMO this just isn't a good QB class and odds are it will be a wasted pick.  I still think we need a lot of depth on the defense.  I'd rather focus there.
