Predictions are for anywhere from 2 to 5 inches of rain over the next 2 days, with a nice 12-15 mph wind to go along with it. If the forecast holds true, its going to be one ugly game tomorrow.

So does the rain help or hurt us? My guess is that if the rain and wind will make passing difficult, it helps us more than it does the Bengals. Our run defense is the one area of our team that is doing pretty well, while Cincy is giving up nearly 5 yards a carry.

And yes, I screwed the thread title up. :)

our passing game right now is so terrible that it actually hurts us.

Cincy has a quality passing game that it will be downgraded to crappy/mediocre in the rain.

We have a crappy/mediocre passing game that will be down graded to absa-freaking-horrible a.k.a. nonexistent.

They will stack the box and make running the ball very difficult.

Clausen could change things but for now I don't know what it's going to be like.

      Joe Person: Panthers are NOT expected to extend Bryce Young before the 2026 season

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      But that's the point, if the locker room feels that way, then you're going to upset them by still keeping Bryce around and playing him over the Top 10 pick, as opposed to bringing in a vet to start until the rookie is ready. Again, it goes one of 3 ways... 1. Bryce plays well enough to earn an extension 2. Bryce still sucks and we draft his replacement who starts Week 1 with a new QB as his backup 3. Bryce still sucks, we draft his replacement in the 1st, but they start the season backing up a new vet QB who was brought in to be his mentor. With an OUTSIDE chance at a 4th option where Bryce plays well enough to convince the team to let him play out the 5th year option and then make a decision.  Which I can't see it happening, but there is still a non zero chance of that happening I guess. The only way we draft a QB next year and still have Bryce on the roster, is if we're taking someone in the middle rounds hoping to develop them as a long term backup to Bryce.

      I hear you. But I am not absolving Legette just because he is from my neck of the woods or anything else.  Tge comment was more about the fans uneven application of blame.  I do agree that there is a noticeable disconnect between him and the QB and that he might do better with a more polished and capable delivery man.  Abd don’t feel that they used XL right, or at least how I expected it to look.  And that could be a function of a reticent WB that shies away from that style of attack. I mean it was either him or Canales that pretty much eliminated downfield from the playbook - even while we see guys running free at times. It Could work if they commit to it.  Whoever isn’t committing.

      Lot of passion there.  Look, if Bryce plays down to the level that we feel the need to draft a QB high, you don’t think the locker room might be ready for anything that helps them win?   There are s lot of angles to this that could come into play depending on what happens this year.
