If you had to make a decision...

Keep Jarrett

That way I can feel safe in the bubble of guaranteed disappointment the Panthers have created for me and my fandom.

LaFell still has a chance to be something, thus popipng my bubble and giving me hope.

With the money they have paid Jarrett you can't cut him until he's seen pre-season action in my opinion. The press is jumping all over him because it's a story - I'm sure every receiver has run a wrong route by now. We need to see what he can do in the pre-season, but at that point the cost is sunk and I would cut him if he's not the best receiver on the team other than Smith.

He was the only one to line up on the wrong side all day Friday.

How can the rookies know where they need to be better than a veteran?

If I was making the decision, I would cut Jarrett and keep LaFell. My reasoning is you already know what you have with Jarrett. LaFell, not so much. The upside to LaFell's potential versus the downright inconsistency and underachievement of Jarrett are rather evident, IMO.

    • Just to clarify: I'm not arguing that height or footwork can’t affect QB play. I'm asking how those concerns translate into measurable, consistent outcomes. That’s the standard we should be applying to all QBs, not just Bryce. If height is such a limitation, then we'd expect to see elevated batted passes or poor pressure evasion. Yet none of that shows up in the data. Bryce was one of the lowest in the league for batted passes and his 16.9 pressure-to-sack ratio is good enough for 9th out of all QBs with 300+ dropbacks. So if you believe footwork tied to height is a meaningful issue, what metric shows that because two that would aren't doing so? This isn't about denying flaws. It's about applying fair, consistent standards because otherwise we’re not evaluating performance which means that it's not analysis taking place... it's just going off of the vibes that somebody has consciously decided on. Citing one red zone play you remember doesn't provide that consistent standard. I don't say that to dismiss your memory, but to emphasize that anecdotal evidence (especially from an avowed skeptic) shouldn’t carry more weight than consistent tape or analytics. For example, there was recently dissonance over Bryce's deep ball accuracy where it was implied that he was inaccurate throwing 20+ yards. Yet, the data and film show otherwise. And I unfortunately have to still ask since you won't directly answer: What specific metrics do you believe matter when evaluating whether a QB is top-10? You've mentioned YPA and passing yards per game, and that's fair. If that's what you're prioritizing, then let's call that your criteria but clarity matters because it prevents moving goalposts when the data doesn’t match one's expectations. I appreciate the response and hope that your holiday weekend goes well also. ❤️
    • Me too. I got other things I can do. Tie it up 2-2 and I will be back, but Im tired of watching us get swept.
    • Svechnikov and I'm voting cause I'm pissed.
