It seems to me that people that say he played better or have anything positive to say just look at the stats and didn’t actually watch him play. The short opening drive was decent (even though the td pass was behind XL and should have been picked or knocked down but XL did a great job securing it). From that point on until garbage time against prevent defense he was atrocious. One maybe two decent plays the whole time. Half his positive stats came in garbage time. That’s not better. There’s nothing positive to draw from that. 

I watched the entire game and he also played against a top defense which no QB has done well against this year. Conversely, Bo Nix looked like he was playing against a college defense

Here is what I think I saw:  He still bails too soon.  When he completes a pass downfield, you can almost see 300 lbs of pressure fly off his back--until the next bad play.  Slants are usually based on pre-snap reads and the rest is timing.  His screens were predetermined and frequent.  Reading the defense?  That is when I see him scrambling in a good pocket.  He has good plays as often as good QBs have bad plays.

Yeah and he still misses reads. 

He's broken. Sad after just one season but it is what it is. 

He would be best suited by a continued backup role and substantially less pressure on him. Hence why trading him would be good. Especially to a team with an established QB with zero starting QB controversy. Just reset and get your head right.

Well I don't think he played well, but he absolutely played better than the first 2 games. If he had played like this in his first 2 games this season, he probably wouldn't have been benched. Just more decisive and not afraid to throw the ball. The INTs weren't egregious to me. Miscommunication on one. The other is just lack of chemistry and a GREAT play by the DB. Made some decent throws and at least took a few shots downfield. Ramp up those downfield shots to 5+ a game and I'll feel better about his confidence.

I agree with all. And would add that these are primarily rookie mistakes and approaches. He's only a second year guy (3 games in) so not that far removed. Denver has a very good defense. It was a good showing against a tough D. This team is just not good. Bo Nix is no where as good as he looked against Carolina. He had as much time as he wanted to go through his progressions.

I'm not sure what everyone is up in arms about. Young had 2 decent drives last game so there's nothing wrong for giving him credit for that. Lord knows there's never been much to praise him for.

We see the insidious doings that lead to 2025 Bryce Young on the  Panthers roster and reliving the nightmare yet another year, making it three years wasted on huge mistake. 

It is sort of like watching a toddler reaching its hand into a flame, after not learning the first time that it will burn you. You know what is about to happen. But it has to find out for itself. Problem is, I get burned too in this case.  Not just the toddler.

      NFL admits the TMac catch should not have been overturned

      By CPantherKing · Posted

      Everyone knew the catch was secured and didn't move. That was clear to the entire audience. The only ones who thought it wasn't a catch were in the NYC home office. They knew they'd just offer an apology the next day.

      Canales is holding us back

      By RumHam · Posted

      NEVER FORGET!!!!   Canales was on no one's radar. Tepper couldn't get anyone to come here. He was all in on Ben Johnson. Nobody wants to work with Tepper, however Canales tenure may prove important for the next guy. This guy still has no idea what he's doing.

      Going for it instead of leading by two scores in the 4th

      By CPantherKing · Posted

      The 4th down play was poor execution by Chuba. He didn't want to get physical like Rico and cut North South to lean on his blocks from Tremble and Ekwonu for half a yard. Also, the 3rd down play before that Bryce audibled out to a QB run and almost got the 1st down was on Chuba for not knowing the play call leading to poor execution. You can see Chuba's confusion when Bryce had to realign him. Then Chuba thought he was getting the handoff and was slow to develop his double team on the DE with Tremble. Then Chuba hesitated on pushing the block and just ran to the sideline making Bryce have to loop around him. This pulled the DE away from Tremble forcing Chuba to chip on the DE late and leaving the safety as a free defender. Chuba was suppose to double down on the DE to let Tremble peel off to the safety. This allows Bryce to set up his run to the inside or outside after the safety commits. You can also see Tremble walk over to talk to Chuba after the play and Chuba shrugs which tells me he didn't know what to do. The audible would have worked on 3rd and the dive would have worked on 4th. The plays were good calls and drawn up well. The question is why was Chuba unprepared for those plays in two critical back to back plays? I like Chuba as a 1st down RB and passing downs, but I have always seen him lacking the power and vision to be a short yardage power back. Chuba didn't come prepared for the Saints game or he was thrown into a position at the 3 spot that he was never prepared for.
