mentioning Clausen's name in the same breath with Peyton's is insane. no chance Clausen will ever set one record in the NFL outside of the lowest QB rating ever. I just read an article Tom Sorensen wrote that said the panthers believe in Clausen. If that story is true we need an entire new FO and ownership.

I don't buy for a second the Panthers still think Clausen will be their best quarterback ever. I also really hope the Panthers aren't handicapping themselves & their scouts by refusing to look at any quarterbacks this draft because they think that keeping Pike and Clausen is worth it.

I sure hope they have an open mind. If they actually think Pickles can lead this team and is the future of the team we are all going to be sad.

I don't believe they are putting much stock in it.

Obviously, they are hopeful. You have to be when you sink a 2nd round in the guy.

Honestly I think at this point Pike has a better chance of becoming a legit high-level starter. Maybe he can fix his noodle and we can get something decent out of him after all.

I agree with the Pike statement. I know many won't agree, but I think Moore is a better option than Pickles.

Don't get me wrong, I think Pike is... uhh, not a very good prospect right now unless he found a way to greatly improve just about everything about himself coming out of college as far as QBing goes, but yeah. He's more an unknown at least, which is why I give him the benefit of the doubt over Clausen as far as future potential could go, though Clausen may still end up being ahead of him.

As to Moore, I kinda doubt they will consider him much at all. If we believe the article posted earlier they are going for stopgap at quarterback to get the team at least competing while they wait for better QB prospects to either develop or fall into their lap somehow.

      How many games before they pull the plug for good

      By SmokinwithWilly · Posted

      I guarantee it makes a difference. Give up 2 scores and its basically over until garbage time. The offense can barely drive the length of the field in 3 quarters. The defense has been gutted to build around a QB that is possibly the biggest bust in NFL history. For what we've put into the offense the past 3 years, we should be dropping 30 bombs with regularity. The only 30s we get are FGs.

      WR drops

      By HPPantherzfan · Posted

      Not according to some fly by night fantasy crusader!  There were 10 drops that should have netted Bryce another 450 yards and 7 TD’s

      The Panthers’ Bryce Young Problem is Getting Old

      By Loyalty4Life · Posted

      What? Am I mistaken that his rookie year included a horrible coaching staff and support players.   It's wasn't just Bryce.  I won't judge any player from that yeah.  It's impossible to make an accurate assessment on any player under those conditions. It's that simple. You break down each play and look at each player, what the expectation was, what happened during the play and what circumstances affected every player and position. There a reason why the narrative was he could be the biggest NFL bust in history.  Then after his benching he started to show remarkable improvement. Thus all the talk from fans and media about how dramatic of a turnaround it was and that Carolina no longer had a QB problem. First game this year the whole team stunk it up.  Why?  Plenty of blame to go around including Bryce. Improvements do not come it a nice straight line angling up.  I think Sunday was a step back for the whole team.  Still plenty of time to see if it was a bad outing to grow from or another indicator of issues that can't be overcome.
