I know it is not Panthers related but we all need a little chuckle right now.

Yes they did - in Houston and Carolina. Of course all coaching staffs have the ego to think that they can turn a player around. It's what you want from your coaching staff because sometimes it works for cheap. But there is enough evidence to know that it won't work this time. However it remains a belief...

hard to believe he is worth a million dollars

I believe they calculated his worth using the European Fecal Standards and Measurements Institutes formula: 1 Couric is worth roughly $11,627.00 and since Carr weighs about 216 lbs (86 Courics) his value as an NFL quarterback is right at $1 million dollars

I still have a hard time believing how bad he turned out here. I also thought it was extremely unlikely he would improve anywhere else because his flaws seemed so evident - such as holding the ball all day in the pocket until he was sacked. Everyone always said he had all the physical gifts, besides a hitch in his motion, he was great. I just didn't think his major flaw of reading defenses could be fixed b/c it's mental. Well, he did good in the time he was in this year, so maybe he did fix it.

It just sucks he couldn't have played his best while he was here because it could've been great for both parties. Oh well...

      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.
