Bryce literally has a stronger arm than Jake Delhomme ever did and nobody complained about Jake throwing wounded ducks to Smitty. This unhealthy obsession with having a rocket arm is just dumb.  

Bryce threw some beautiful spirals with anticipation and people literally talking nonsense.  

This is revisionist history.  Everyone complained about smitty constantly having to stop his route to catch Delhommes passes

Red herring, we’re talking about arm strength not the height or tippy toes.  What’s really over the top is your obsession over his height 

That might accurate if you had accused me of being under the top. 

I gave him his large credit for standing in weeks ago, but reasonable is reasonable.

And what did I say that’s unreasonable? I didn’t say he’s made it or that he’s deserving of a second contract but have simply chosen to focus on the positive progression over the last 4 games instead of the same old stuff about his height and arm when neither been an issue as of late.  Cheers

You said he had a better arm than Jake or some such nonsense. Damn, talking about herring.

I thought that was beneath you, honestly. It isn't true.

ok fair enough but we still supported Jake until the 2009 season when the wheels fell off.

In response to nonsense about Bryce’s arm being an issue when he’s literally hitting guys deep in stride and Jake was notorious for throwing jump balls that Smitty had to wait for.   My example was to show how ridiculous the Bryce hate has gotten that people can’t even admit he actually looked like he can play in the NFL. We just need to see it consistently for the rest of the season

Let's keep the hype down to 11. He doesn't have a stronger arm than Jake. That is just ridiculous on its face, regardless of who was slowing down for what on what day for what reason.

I think it’s debatable. I loved Jake and how clutch he was but he threw more ducks than spirals. Bryce throws a better deep ball in my opinion when his mechanics are not out of whack. I stand by that

you have absolutely lost your mind about jake

 

I think alot of people commentit jake had a week arm only remmeber post tj surgery.  His arm was way better than youngs.  Young showed improvement last game but that doesn't make his arm stronger he still needs to be able to step into his throws to have any velocity as far a qbs the pantherd have had clausen and young have similiar arms

Bryce has had 3 to 4 ok games in his career. All of his career stats are terrible his last few games have been better but everyone is ready to jump on bryce train after an ok few games and forget what they have had to watch last 2 years. Andy dalton has still had way better games as a panther than young and he sucks.

The Panthers have had two long term starting QB's in the span of 30 years. Bryce Young looks halfway decent in a loss to the Chiefs and suddenly we're having to defend Jake Delhomme. There's "glass half full" and then there's "alright that's enough edibles for you".

      We joke about how the NFL has a script for the season. But maybe it's not a joke?

      By Proudiddy · Posted

      I had started typing my post hours ago and didn’t finish it and just came back to finish it, posted it, then saw yours and saw we were pretty much saying the same thing - even the games that stick out to us most.  I don’t think a lot of people remember that SF playoff game, but I felt like I had just got mugged in broad daylight.  I remember them calling Mitchell for unnecessary roughness, and then I remember watching Boldin take a super late cheap shot, dead in front of the ref and then showing him watching the whole thing in replay…  the refs let them have a fuging field day and didn’t do jack poo, but if we so much as breathed the wrong way it was fuging 15 yards.  Each team playing under two completely different sets of rules.  poo hurt.  I was enraged.  I’ve never went back to watch either that game or SB50 and never will.  fuging robbery.

      I’ve said it a million times since, but it’s impossible to keep them from affecting the game.  In SB50, they literally took the game from us, and they did it early.  Cotchery’s no-catch?  The miraculous amount of times we converted for a first down only to have it suddenly called back make it a 3rd down and 15+ against the best defense in the league that specialized in rushing the passer and man coverage on the back end?  And you do that enough times, you kill the morale and confidence of the team you’re doing it against.  It’s telling the one team “you can do whatever with impunity” and the other “you can’t do whatever they’re allowed to do.”  It changes the aggression level.  It essentially neuters one team and allows the other to do whatever the fug they want.  Imagine you call the police for help and they get there and tell you to sit still while the other party beats the poo out of you and you can’t defend yourself.  That’s what the officials do.  There is no way to avoid them affecting the game.  And more often than not, it’s the most subjective calls they use to do so.  Even in SB50…  you saw the Broncos commit more egregious penalties than anything we did, and barely any of it was called.  Their OL was holding all fuging game and the refs did nothing.  We already had our work cut out for us against two future HOF edge rushers and the refs played to their advantage with that.  From what I remember, both Oher and Remmers were called for holding at various times and their hands were in the INSIDE of the defender.  It was garbage, but all by design. Also, if there is any video of it anywhere, go look at what the refs did against us back in 2013 against SF.  The fix was in there too.  They stepped in early and often and ensured we knew we were not allowed to play with the same aggression or intensity SF was.  It was disgusting as well. at this point, I hope Vince McMahon, errr, I mean Goodell just finally scripts us to win it, because this poo is not won via competition or off merit.

      You can go back to the New York Knicks somehow getting Patrick Ewing.  I saw a story where they place the New York Knick card in the freezer right before the drawing.  It was simple.  Show everyone the cards are undetectable to the human eye.  All they had to do was grab the coldest card. IMO ever since Goodell took over the NFL it has been fishy.  Patriots winning the SB after 9/11, New Orleans after Katrina and Peyton Manning's going away gift against us. The terrible calls during that game were blatantly one sided.  New England should have been stripped of their first 3 SB when they were caught spying on the other team in their SB wins.  I think the evidence against the Patriots was so damning Goodell felt it could ruin football and they brushed it under the table.   In the 2004 SB, How did we go from practically no yards in the first Quarter to setting a record in the 3rd Qtr.  Dan Henning changes the game plan.  IMO probably the greatest half time adjustment of all time.
