Who wants Bryce to fail?

I think it’s the “we must find our QB” obsession that’s gotten us into trouble in the first place. We have to regain our culture and rebuild the roster. Take the wins and progress as they come and reevaluate in the offseason.  

Years of bad drafting has gotten us into trouble. Trading 5 premium players for Bryce Young was just the cherry on top - the death knell of the franchise. 

We're years away from digging ourselves out of that hole - but Legette, Sanders, Coker and Wallace are a very good start.

He's been the worst quarterback in pro football for most of his career and game managed his way to two wins against bottom of the barrel teams. Let's be real here.

On the other end you have fans already planning the future around him because he's proven capable of rising to mediocrity for the win.

He's got a long way to go before we should even be thinking about him long term. The only reason this thread exists is because doing the bare minimum is progress for Bryce.

Just raise your hand here so you don’t have to ruin every positive thread when Panthers win. 

It’s one thing to be critical of Bryce when he deserves it but some of the hate on this board is just weird.  Stop trying to sugar coat it and admit you don’t want Bryce to do anything well because you have moved on forever and are looking to confirm your bias regarding his NFL future 

I wanted him benched too but every time he steps on the field I want him to succeed and do well. He still has a long ways to go but I think he can be a Brock Purdy type of QB with the right pieces around him.  And yes Purdy was not the top QB selected in the draft but 49ers gave up a haul for Trey Lance. You take the hand you’re dealt and don’t think about the sunk cost.

He isn't Brock Purdy in that example, he is Trey Lance.

I genuinely don’t think there is a single Panthers fan who wants Bryce to fail. There’s a big difference between actively rooting for someone’s failure, and just observing the obvious. I didn’t personally think before the 2023 season “omg I hope Bryce fails I hate him” I was cautiously optimistic although admittedly skeptical because I had seen him play in college and he had a lot of red flags that seemed to be totally ignored in the draft process. But now? I don’t think he’s going to be the franchise QB for this team, he’s obviously too physically limited, but he might have a long career in the NFL as a backup and game manager. He’s just not the caliber of player who should have been taken #1 overall. He was wildly overhyped because he went to Alabama and the Panthers drank the proverbial kool ade. So long story short no, I don’t hope he fails, at this point I know he’s a failure relative to what the Panthers paid to get him.

Serious question for the box score folks? Did you actually watch the game or are you criticizing purely off 125 yards? An if you did watch the game, what would you say Bryce did poorly?

Missed Chuba to ice the game. Easy throw. Didn’t give Coker a chance on a deep ball. He just ain’t got the arm talent. Now…I do have one praise, his throw to David Moore in the red zone was perfect everything with really good coverage.

That was a high school level throw 

edit: oh you meant the one that got called back n/m

I have always wanted Bryce to prove me wrong. I’ve never hoped for his demise. 
 

I said it in another thread: He is our very expensive bridge QB who has now made Dalton expendable.

He CAN at least throw some passes, and a good amount of his throws have been on point. My main interest is seeing our line and new pass catchers evolve. Coker, X, and Sanders have shown real talent and it can’t be allowed to get stale. 

Let him and Thielen walk. Plummer is backup QB. We now have the capital to sign Horn.

I think we really need Andy to come in and remind everyone what it is supposed to look like. He's had his rest. And if he can't then we'd better find someone. Because Bryce as an NFL QB is down here and even a top 20 NFL QB is way up there.

Wanting and knowing he has/will are two different things

Even the anti-Bryce people before the draft then got on board to hoping he’d be good once we made the pick

But this ship has sailed, he’s a bust for exactly what everyone saw before the draft, he doesn’t any the physical capabilities to be a starting NFL QB

    • He’s been every bit as much of the problem as anyone else. You cant remove him from that fact, he is just as much part of the team and in THE most important position on the field. But this is the first season he’s seen any kind of continuity in his team and coaches. And he’s shown flashes here and there. But we do need more out of him going forward a lot more if we are going to be successful 
    • Bryce isn’t great and super mid. But I think can be a game manager. What do we think is out there? Daniel Jones isn’t going anywher. Mac Jones? Zach Wilson? Pickett. I’m just not sure what’s out there that is much better without having to give up a ton of capital. Rather take one more step closer to contention with our early rounders next year with FS and LB help. Make this  place where dang they got a defense and a WR1 and solid RB room. I can win with that and want to be here 
    • AR15 is if Justin Fields was fragile and his teammates hated him. No thanks. Ya'll think you hate watching Bryce Young? Wait until your QB can't even complete a 7 yard pass over the middle, which Fields and Richardson can't do. If the draft class was better, I could absolutely see the Titans moving on from Ward already if they got the #1 pick. But so far the college QB's haven't impressed enough. They'll have flashes, but then follow it up with a very meh game. Kyler is already done in Arizona, but he has a ridiculous contract and he's basically Bryce that likes to scramble, so no thanks. If Lawrence can't produce with that team in Jacksonville, what do you think he'll do here? He's tall Bryce who can throw deep but can't make the 4th down throws and crumbles in the red zone. No thanks. I do think Canales wants to move on from Bryce, his body language says so even in wins. He treated Bryce pretty odd this week and Bryce looked checked out in the Packers game. But unless they make another risky trade, its going to be slim pickings. Basically our hopes lie in hitting early in the draft with a Mateer, Nussmeier, Beck type or finding a random backup free agent that has another gear to hit.  I think even with the draft being wishy washy, 4-5 QB's will be taken in the top 7. A lot of teams are just that desperate.
