I am just not seeing how this isn't tanking. I mean......how?

If Young gets hurt and/or it's 43-0 in the fourth quarter, they want to see what Plummer has to determine the moves at backup QB.

Of course with his best weapon out, we excused poor play from other second-year QBs in other conferences, so curious to see if that approach is applied here.

I mean....I am not trying to be flippant but who cares what a PS/3rd string QB really has to offer in an almost impossible scenario?

I am becoming VERY convinced we are really tanking. But, that should show itself very clearly on Sunday, if true. We should get absolutely stomped.

Oh there are absolutely two big-time, 30-40 point curb-stompings incoming. But the team believes it's worth more to see if Plummer can lead a few drives in garbage time vs. spending a sixth-round pick on a QB. Not my justification, but theirs.

Yeah, very possibly so. We will see how it plays out.

If we are getting blown out enough to sit Bryce, Bryce might lose his job again.

I think Dalton is going to retire. He lost a lot of zip on the ball from Vegas to Washington. He looked exhausted after those 5 games.

Andy only had 3 or 4 games left in him when the team signed him. He has spent those this season. He will never be able to give a team more than that at this point in his career. He will probably retire.

      So, after Sunday's game does that mean we're stuck with Bryce for the foreseeable future?

      Boy we agree on the dink and dunk. I don’t want to watch that kind of football.  I mean okay if you win with it, it could be tolerable but it feels claustrophobic, constrained, limited, boring.  But for some reason I love a smash mouth heavy run game that wins the LOS and gets the backs to the second level.

      I am really sorry  that  happened to you they say to never meet your sports heroes i have friends who met  mickey mantle when they were young and he was a belligerent alcoholic at the time  ut broke their hearts  I had the opportunity to meet and spend  time with Cam Newton.     He was the polar opposite of Steve Smith and his public image.   Polite.  Honest when asked question.  You could tell the things that mattered to him and the things that  didnt. The disappointments in himself and the things that hurt him  those qualities make him quite a good interviewer too  i genuinely liked him   Im sure as young, rich, sports hero, he has not been a choir boy but there is goodness in him  the time i met him i took one of my friends with me from the west coast. She said she didn't like him and wasn’t enthusiastic about meeting him.  She left loving him   No one can say anything bad about ‘her Cam’ anymore

      Agree about oline. They've tried their best to improve that area. But honestly, has it looked like the most expensive oline in the NFL to you? Not just with Bryce. With Dalton's one game where they almost got the old man killed.  Also YAC shouldn't always be hitting a guy in stride while he's running full speed. Pickens killed us after the catch and those weren't all hit-in-stride plays. I remember a play in Miami when a guy caught a 5 yards curl and took it like 30-40 yards to the house. We don't have that in Carolina. Horn might be the closest thing to that but he can't get significant PT for whatever reason. If Bryce keeps trusting his receivers to make plays, I think he'll become more consistent. Seemed like he only trusted TMac. And force feeding one receiver isn't sustainable. Defenses will start to blanket him and take him out of the game. And yeah, keep taking deep shots. I hate all that dink and dunk football. Hate it.
