"We had three receivers dressed for the game. If he (Jarrett)'s one of the ones over on the sideline, I could see how you might say that. But he was active for the game. To get a uniform, I don't think that shows a lack of confidence."

Just three? Me no likey that, Fox. Sure, we have TEs and all...but still, I feel safer with four dressed out.

I know thie Panthers need help at WR,,,,, but it is not like they have had decent QB play. All this if Breeze, or Brady, or Rodgers, etc were on this team they would suck just as bad is b.s. If there was any good QB play and better protection by the o-line - I dont think our WR's would look that bad. There are guys getting open, and even the few times Jarrett was on the field he was open as well. On one play or two of them Moore just scrambled out and ran out of bounds.

That all being said I wish our WR was better, I just think some or more of the blame needs to be on Moore. Maybe we will see a difference with Clausen.

    • It's honestly pretty interesting just seeing this pairing play out. Canales’ offenses (Seattle, Tampa) are run-first, under-center, play-action systems built around defined reads and intermediate/deep timing throws. That structure worked when he had QBs like Baker Mayfield or Russell Wilson in a system that created clear launch points and sightlines. His success has always been tied to a credible run game + play-action gravity. You can see that with the Panthers team building philosophy as well. Coker and TMac both are bigger receivers that won't get the best YAC production but thrive as possession receivers in contested scenarios. They're not the best in space and creating additional yardage in such, and would likely fair better systematically with a stronger armed QB who can create better opportunities on those boundary 1v1 matchups with stronger throws. Bryce, on the other hand, is a spread-native QB. His strengths are rhythm, spacing, quick processing, and off-script creation. Asking him to live in condensed formations with long-developing play-action concepts just hasn't been his forte. And well, his boundary throws are limited in velocity which takes a big chunk of the playbook off. And I mean a QB like Bryce can still work, it's just Dave's offensive philosophy and foundation is very much at odds with Young's physical limits and his own experience. So it's certainly still a learning experience for Dave to figure out how he can mesh his offensive philosophy with Young's strengths. He's very inexperienced with maximizing Bryce's strengths with his system. Would love to see us bring in an OC with spread experience and adaptability to implement a cohesive system with Dave to allow Bryce to thrive, as it's obvious we're sticking with him for a bit longer.   
    • Only thing I really agreed with is questioning why we didn’t take any timeouts on their last drive.  I know hindsight is 20/20, but I think it would’ve saved clock bc they were desperate to score as soon as the opportunity presented itself, but I also think it could’ve helped the defense regroup and maybe give us a better chance to stop them.
