“We look better”

The problem hasn't been the play design or calling or QB play. It's been dropped balls and a struggling defense.

Neither Canales or BY can catch the balls. They're doing everything they can to put players in a situation to get the ball caught and moved down the field. It's on the rest of the players to do their own job.

When do we talk about our first round rookie? The one that’s good for a back breaking drop every single week? The one who despite being a “physical specimen” refuses to show strength at the catch point on what could have been a crucial third down conversion? While the player a lot of us wanted with that pick is the focal point of an offense that’s going to be playing in January. Do we keep giving him a pass because he has a funny accent?

XL is a liability right now. Maybe the biggest on this offense.

He is a rookie and looked like it today. He has a lot of potential but is too inconsistent and doesn't play big. I hope Thielen can help XL progress like Dalton did for Young.  Thielen was a force today and showed XL how it is done.

    • Sometimes its fun to read the threads/posts.  The panthers could literally hire a groundskeeper and we'd have a thread "improving the field for no other reason to prop up Bryce Young".  Apparently no move is ever done to actually make the team better.  All a conspiracy to just focus on Bryce Young. Or suddenly daydreaming and reminiscing about Sam Darnold when he was hated more than Bryce Young.  Its really fun to do a message board search about Darnold during that time period.   Or thinking there is just a tree that grows QB, and you can just easily go up and pluck one.   
    • Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying. 
    • Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
