a good QB can make bad WRs look average, average WRs look good, and good WRs look elite.

imo, clausen can be that QB. we'll have to see (and hope) if that is the case. i don't have all that much confidence in the non-smitty WRs that we have right now.

their growth will come when we have proper playcalling. I full heartedly believe in the run but if you constantly have your qb with 3rd and long, they nor the receivers will ever succeed. When they are 8 or 9 in the box we need quick slants, release throws to the back out of the back field, easy throws. That will open things up, it isnt rocket science. Balanced playcalling is what are receivers and qb needs but that is beating a dead horse, and everyone knows this.

That is a fact!

The idea that great QB's make great receivers, instead of the other way around, has been proven over and over throughout the years. Nobody would would have ever heard of many of the all time "great" WR"s if they had had the misfortune of playing with bad QB's or on running oriented teams.

Name a great WR and you are almost certain to find a great QB throwing him the ball. That's one of the things that has made our own Steve Smiths exploits even more impressive. He is one of the few that have put up big numbers in spite of his QB and offense around him.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By Tepper's Chest Hair · Posted

      Sometimes its fun to read the threads/posts.  The panthers could literally hire a groundskeeper and we'd have a thread "improving the field for no other reason to prop up Bryce Young".  Apparently no move is ever done to actually make the team better.  All a conspiracy to just focus on Bryce Young. Or suddenly daydreaming and reminiscing about Sam Darnold when he was hated more than Bryce Young.  Its really fun to do a message board search about Darnold during that time period.   Or thinking there is just a tree that grows QB, and you can just easily go up and pluck one.

      Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying.

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
