No, we don't need to see Bryce Young again

The same thing was said about Mayfield and Darnold.  Panthers might not win another game and there is nothing to lose in starting Bryce for a couple games and maybe the rest of the year.  Heck, I'd start playing practice squad players at this point because this team is complete trash.  Maybe let Tepper suit up for a couple snaps while we are at it.  

There isn’t anything to it unless people were saying they couldn’t see over the line or couldn’t throw downfield or didn’t have NFL arm strength. That’s commonly what people say about Young.

When people say things like this my literal reaction is:

Bryce Young could not be more different from Mayfield and Darnold. Neither Baker nor Sam have to take ridiculously long drop backs to survey the field or stand on their tiptoes to see. Also neither of them would have missed 2 open receivers right next to each other at the goal line in the red zone because they couldn't see around their right tackle.

This is exactly what this place said about Mayfield with all the tipped balls.  I don't think Bryce is the answer, but the Panthers have to stop looking for quick fixes and they need to be patient.  Loser franchises constantly make rash decisions and giving up the farm for a guy and then unloading him in less than 2 seasons is crazy.

Trust me I feel the same way when this place wants to get rid of every player or coach that doesn't ball out in their first year.  The Huddle would have traded Tom Brady and Peyton Manning after their first year.  Again, I'm not saying Bryce is the answer, but they can't give up on him yet.

Also Mayfield had some previous success.  And Darnold had some with us, after Rhule got canned.  Not a lot, but certainly more than Bryce has ever had.
