Hot Take: This team will never get over the hump, until we move on from Bryce.

If Bryce Young were 5 inches taller and playing the exact same these threads wouldn’t even get made.

They absolutely would, just like they were when Teddy was QB and when Sam was QB. Baker too to some degree but that was doomed to fail from the start.

Yeah, but see....those random throws don't make him not Teddy two gloves.  Because Teddy two gloves had those random throws too that went against his norm. 

I think if Bryce turned into Teddy B the passer....we should be happy.  Not mad.  Because Bryce adds to that a better aspect with his slipperiness and legs. 

I can see that a little. However we have to remember Teddy had Robby Anderson, DJ Moore, Curtis Samuel and a young Christian McCaffrey. I just need to see Bryce with a playmaking receiver or two before I make final judgment. Not that Thielen isn't good, but he's a possession receiver that will sneak one by you if you're not paying attention.

remember, he actually only had Mike Davis in reality.  A random journeyman RB.  CMC effectively out the whole season.  Basically everyone around him was some variant of a NFL JAG minus DJ Moore.  That was Curtis' best season in the NFL w/ Teddy.  That was Robbie's only 1000k season. 

people turned hard on Teddy and actually sided w/ Rhule at the time.  Teddy in reality, was one of the few things they did right.  He was actually the perfect bridge QB and get the team right QB.  He just couldn't keep quiet Rhule and company were lacking NFL basics....and he said it as nice as possible.

Teddy and Rhule both sucked, but Rhule unfortunately got a little benefit of the doubt given his new coach status. Plenty of ubiquitous suckage happening in Carolina these recent years. Teddy was a guy that had shown for years he was only as good as the team around him and even then was a limiting factor due to his love of checkdowns, which we watched firsthand.

Huddle gonna Huddle.. lol .. 

I going to go out on a limb and say if Dalton didn't get hurt we'd be up with Atlanta and Tampa fighting for a playoff spot.. 

If the best case scenario is another Bryce = Teddy 2 gloves then count me out on him... 

What makes you think that exactly?  Admittedly he probably wins the same games as Bryce but I don't think he sneaks one of our losses to a win with him based on how the opposing team played...

Dalton was complete ass in the games leading up to his injury. Maybe you beat NO the second time with him, you probably beat the Giants, you do not beat the Cardinals. So you'd have 1-2 fewer wins. Not more. Because you're also taking away Young's rushing numbers in hopes of more Dalton pass yardage, which as we saw in his last 4 starts, was by no means a guarantee.

Curtis was damn good his last two years here. He was genuinely a threat to score anytime he had the ball in his hands. It’s also easy to forget Robby used to be a good player. He was having huge games for the jets, just didn’t get a ton of volume. He was good here, then fell off a cliff. It happens.

That offense and those weapons were miles better than what we currently have. It’s not even close. DJ Moore was our slowest starting receiver. Our offense was generated by YAC which is something we haven’t seen here since.

Agree they didn't have a stud runner, but Curtis, DJ and Robbie is a fast group. They all are YAC playmakers. Robbie was a legitimate "stretch the defense" deep threat.

And for all his flaws, Joe Brady sets up a YAC scheme.   It’s the plan.  We were top 10 in YAC and Joe Brady is that today as well.  Part of the reason we got no YAC is that’s not what Frank or Canales want to do big picture.

If you're saying he's a modern day John Fox then I  hope he finds his Jake Delhomme and Steve Smith. If he doesn't he's not going to see the end of his contract.

I mean to an extent that’s more the tree Canales comes from.  Run the ball.  Chunk throws.  

Which is why I was ok with XL.  He fit that brand.   Bryce really fits something more modern and creative.   So he is going to have to adapt if Bryce is back in play. It’s why I wish he would just turn it over to another OC next year.

    • Dan tends to attack one specific position group per offseason and the sprinkle others throughout the roster. He extended Moton, signed Hunt, Lewis, Nijman one offseason and then extended Brown and signed Wharton and Hunt and drafted Jackson next offseason. My guess is he attacks LB and Edge this offseason.    1. What do you do with Icky? Likely a scratch for next season and due a massive contract (if healthy) They will bring back Nijman and Christensen and draft a guy on Day 2 is my guess and hope one of them can fill the hole. 2. Coker has the talent for 2nd WR, but do you pay a guy who gets hurt that premium? I think hes your number 3 simply due to risk. Will the Panthers seek another vet or go surprisingly high in the draft? They will probably sign him more and longer than the RFA Tender to keep him happy and not break the bank in the process. Can see them getting a Vet in FA like Tutu Atwell or Hollywood Brown. Somebody with speed but also isn’t overly expensive. I think Horn and Tremayne stick around and unfortunately Legette. I wouldn’t be surprised to see Tremble released and a real TE in brought in, there is a good FA group this year. 3. Do you give X more feature time? Or cut bait now? I wouldn’t be surprised if they traded him but I’m willing to bet he gets one more year. Maybe Canales can find a role like Shenault had with McAdoo.  4. Planning the long term/short term on OL Like I said I think Christensen and Nijman are brought back for T with a Day 2 rookie and prayer something sticks. Moton, Hunt, Lewis return ofcourse. Probably resign Corbett as a safeguard at Center but I think they go C in the 1st or 2nd. Wouldn’t be shocked to see Morgan trade to the back end of the 1st to get a solid C and add picks. 5. How do you address LB? I think Rozeboom leaves. Hoping CJ Allen or Sonny Styles is still there is too big of a risk. They probably go get Kaden Elliss or Leo Chenal and pay good money for them. Maybe a guy on Day 3 for depth with Cherelus and Martin-Scott. Also think he takes a swing at Edge, wouldn’t be shocked to see Hendrickson or Oweh here.  6. Do you bank of Chuba bouncing back?    I think Chuba remains Chuba. There are some decent change of pace backs out there this year that will be cheap. Still developing Etienne and Brooks may be healthy. I think it’s Chuba and that crew maybe a veteran that’s not Dowdle. More like Deejay Dallas who was here already once.    I also think Dalton calls it and they get an upgrade at back up. Nobody that wouldn’t endanger Bryce’s job but somebody that isn’t 55 years old either.   
    • This is my answer. If I got board I would just do guest drop ins to obscure podcasts but would definitely collect the cash from Tepper.
