Season over? This guy WILL have something to say about that...

I'm lost on this one, Kasay can kick a 52 yd FG, but can't kick it 70 yds? Maybe we should get rid of both of them? Let Clausen do the kicking!

Kasay's kickoffs today were nothing to write home about.

More important than that, tough, is this.

Part of the reason why Kasay is still kicking 50+ yard field goals at his age is that the team has lightened his workload in the past several years by having someone else kick off. It's been the punter more than once (Baker, Sauerbrun) and for the past couple of years it's been a kickoff specialist.

The team is saving his leg for where it counts most, putting points on the board, and I have no problem with that.

    • I think we have some revisionist around it here because of all the drama around Tepper's involvement. If you pull up any scouting report from the time you'll see the same take. WalterFootball's report sums up the media's thoughts on him well: "Young has everything the NFL is looking for in a quarterback except in terms of weight and height." He was the consensus top QB of his draft and the only real question mark they had about him was whether his body could hold up in the NFL. The infamous Steph Curry comparison the Panthers latched onto came from Albert Breer. The excuses I've heard for him are more anecdotal. Bryce Young's development is the only bullet point most NFL fans have on the Panthers right now. That and the coaching turnover. If you're not actually watching our games it's easy to believe this is just a dysfunctional organization that doesn't know how to unleash this talented Heisman winner.  I've seen media and fans alike run with that narrative way more than criticizing Young outright. Whenever we win there's flocks who use it as proof that the Panthers just need to be patient.  
    • So maybe 1-3 vs playoff teams, going by standings as of today. I guess that is an improvement.  We are just about improved enough to be in purgatory draft wise. It really isn’t so bad in the 1st unless you really want that top QB or maybe edge guy because there are usually plenty of good players at the top but it hurts you some as get deeper in the draft.
