Bryce developing before our eyes

BY played way beyond just "OK" today. Tommy Tremble holds onto the ball in the end zone and the Panthers win today.

I would venture to say the only reason the Panther's were even close was of his performance. It sure as heck wasnt because of the defense or rushing.

That’s not how football works.  If Tremble holds onto the ball, Carolina would have still been trailing and quarter and a half of football would have then followed. 

Bryce was fine today.  There has been nothing about him that says you would want to build around him and make him your guy. KC isn’t really a great team this year either.  They have a great record.   A crap team like the Raiders probably hangs with them next week too.

I thought putting more points on the scoreboard was how you win.

WTF is up with these refs.

 

A clear fumble was ruled down by the refs. Then they missed the challenge flag.

 

Stuff like that is why many believe the NFL can be rigged. Either these refs are blind or they just don't know what they are doing.

They also called a facemask on the Panthers when it clearly wasn't.

I always thought the rumors about the Chiefs getting good calls was just that but am not too sure after today.

Forget about last year and everything that transpired. Bryce has to be looked at and evaluated as a second year rookie. It’s only fair given the crap situation he was in.  His performance since regaining the starting job  is showing the promise we all hoped for at the beginning of the season.  If he continues on this trajectory the rest of the year I am confident he will be back as a starter next year and, frankly it would be the right move.  

It goes beyond stats, he probably should have had at least 3 TDs against one of the top defensive NFL units. He led the team today, showed tremendous poise and leadership, delivered some big time throws.

Future is bright folks!

The problem will always be the low ceiling. The best Bryce Young will never be a Josh Allen/Jackson/Cam/etc....

You can’t just cherry pick a missed opportunity…put it on the board after the fact and claim we win if it happened.  If you change a play in the 3rd q….everything else that happened wouldn’t stay the same.  

If Tremble caught that ball in the 3rd…we would have still been behind at that time.

II told folks 2 weeks ago that Bryce has been making improvements in several components of his game like moving in the pocket and stepping up into pressure instead of bailing into sacks. Today he improved in anticipation and throwing to spots trusting his guys would be there. He made some fantastic throws under extreme duress having to throw the ball before the receiver had made his move to get open.  He is developing chemistry with his receivers and they are playing for him. He looked like he belonged on the same field as Mahomes today. If this improvement continues he will be our guy or get us some good compensation. A win in either case.

The main point I am trying to make is Bryce made the throw and it should have been a TD. I just don't see how you can say he was just "okay" today. 

Here's some of what he did:

Drove down the field in 44 seconds for a score at the end of the 1st half.

Led the Panthers on a 9 minute drive to start the 3rd finishing off with a TD pass to Moore. 

That's 10 straight points.

In the fourth he drove the field leading to 3 and then on the very next drive drove the field leading to a TD to tie the game. Again, that's 10 straight points.

I am not saying it was perfect - but surely that is better than just okay

    • Bryce Young isn’t a bust, the Panthers are | SB Nation https://share.google/oYybGvyvzUOIgbplX From a couple months back, came up on a quick Google about Bryce Youngs processing ability. Emphases how struggles are not his fault but the poor team built around him. I don't really feel like looking for others; it's similar to various things said across the league.
    • Okay, I'm going to take a controversial stance here... maybe. I think that we are told constantly that the QB is the most important player on a football team. And many times, that is true. They can make a team or break a team. But what if the QB is just one of the cogs that makes the team work. Like the computer in a car, it doesn't run the engine, it just sends the electricity/fuel/torque where it needs to go at that minute. It feeds this, then that, this, then that again as needed. If a team is run with this mindset, and the QB is just there to feed the ball to this RB, to make sure the play gets in to all the guys on the field, to make some last moment adjustments and make some throws to open receivers, then it all works. It's game management, it's playing point guard, it's the pivot point. And, well, Bryce has been doing that. He's mostly been trying to let others do their jobs and stay out of their way. And, like it or not, the kid has shown remarkable resilience when the game is on the line. He suddenly gets tough and focused.  Nope, he's not turning in the stats to make the fans cheer. He's not throwing precision strike bombs every third play. But he's somehow there, making his contribution. He's not a star, but he's not bad either. And that makes it tough on the fanbase. It's hard to get behind him and cheer him on. Even though he's been behind center for one of our best seasons at the midpoint in a long time. Maybe he has a breakout game and passes for over 300 yards and 3 TDs. Maybe he completely collapses in a five turnover, seven sack game. Maybe he just keeps handing the ball off and making some decent mid-level throws when needed. Who knows? But I will say this. The kid that got just thrown into the bench from that sideline smash early in the Green Bay game got up like a helluva man and went back out and competed. Stats and stature aside, the guy ain't a pushover. And you've got to respect that.
