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.

      Off Season Thread

      I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.

      Best draft picks ever at each slot (4 Panthers)

      By WhoKnows · Posted

      Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.

      Panthers Blueprint out now

      By Gapanthersfan · Posted

      Homerism aside, the more I see from Dan, the more impressed I am.  His player evaluation instincts. Last year his 2 premier FA signings, Hunt and Lewis COMPLETELY changed the line and I have a feeling his success in choosing blue chip guys will continue.  Look at the panthers’s rep for FA signings in the past. By and large, it’s been guys 1 year past their prime who had an injury and suckered our GM in to a crippling contract. We never get nice things. When was the last time this team signed 2 young blue chip studs  in the same offseason to contracts worthy of their impact? Ever?  Im telling y’all, players respect and trust Morgan.
