Quick Question....


Zod

Recommended Posts

Lets say the last game of the year the Panthers have an opportunity to prevent Atlanta from getting home field throughout. However, a win would lose us the first overall pick.

If Atlanta lost in the playoffs on the road would the satisfaction of having played a part in that outweigh the loss of the first overall pick?

The fact that this is a question for anyone to take seriously speaks volumes about this forum

they can't afford to lose...more importantly, we can't afford to win.

2 benefits from falcons winning

1) gets us closer to luck

2) if NFCS gets another superbowl team, it looks good for the whole division. if panthers can manage to keep up with the rest of the teams the next few years, it will mean we are doing something right.

Having a franchise quarterback is a hell of a lot more important than keeping one stupid team from getting home field advantage. Dumb question.

The real question is, does Atlanta throw the game in order to screw US out of Luck?

    • 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.
