Preseason Panthers v Texans official game day thread

Don't know if I can watch more.

Every commercial break, my service talks about a San Fran documentary pulling Montana for Steve Young and a QB controversy, then Micah P, and then maybe season opener with Rams.. and then some other boring generic European soccer clips. And repeat if the break is longer... 

Gah..  I prefer the US commercials. I want them. Bad. 😂

I'd prefer anything over the neverending cycle of pharma ads showing people having the time of their lives with happy music playing while a laundry list of atrocious side effects is read by the narrator.

Yeah, it has nothing to do with losing year after year and having a 3rd year #1 overall pick QB who we swung a massive franchise crippling trade to get and we're still basically just hoping he's not a bust. Yeah, you're right. It's all my fault. LOL

If you need a place that's all sunshine and rainbows while the world burns around you, I think they made a Discord for that.

Sounds like a lot of cope. Why don’t you just create another thread for everybody who doesn’t like your shtick? There’s certainly nothing in between disagreeing with super smart edumacated football savant linville gorge and “all sunshine and rainbows”. As we all know, the only educated opinions are yours, and you certainly bear no blame for bringing down the discourse by immediately launching into character attacks instead of just talking like a normal human. Reddit mod level.

Didn’t he say the plan was just to run them only in the first 2 and sit the last? 

I might have that wrong.  Hope I do or he junks the old plan.

But the it’s just going to be a repeat of last preseason.  Where his starters only see success vs backup units going in 

That’s what most of the league has been doing since going to 3 games.

So, is Bryce going to struggle to start and then pick it up, and we have the conversation we had all offseason again? 
 

This hasn’t been a good preseason for the starters. Right now, I’m ready to move on. 


I think the entire O is going to struggle.

The oline appears to have taken a step back. Zero run game over these two games.

But yeah, could end the season with ‘hope’ vs certainty.

I tried to provide you guys with what you wanted and you still didn't like it. But again, that's all my fault. LOL

Why would we want to have a developmental QB with potential on the depth chart? Bryce is fragile and Tepper committed this franchise to Bryce.

IMO we should have had Bryce competing with other young QBs since day one. Warned about Bryce before the draft. Dalton & Plummer does nothing to hedge against a bust in Bryce.

 

I've been saying this all year and even as recent as a month ago and people poo'd my common sense posts about Dalton and the QB room.

Again, this is why I have been droning on that we should’ve taken Milton or Sanders over the last two years, because I am 99.9% sure Bryce’s run to end the season was fool’s gold.  We have a much bigger sample size of what to expect from him before that stretch.

You are putting a lot of opinion on a very very small sample size.... especially since the actual starting 5 haven't played yet...  guarantee Lewis goes week 1.

    • We beat Atlanta by 30 in the first meeting
    • The situation here was the doing of David Tepper.  Frank Reich didn't want Young, he wanted Stroud. Stroud fit his QB mold better than Young. So yeah, he didn't design an offense for him. He was lied to by his boss and he didn't want to be here. Would you? It sucks for Young, but as I said, that has nothing to do with his terrible footwork, poor mechanics, his shitty drop backs, fumble issues, not bothering to look off the Atlanta safety that turned into a pick 6 by his own admission. Those were all things that had nothing to do with Frank, the OL or the rest of the team.  And Houston wasn't a complete team. They had the 2nd pick in the draft because they sucked. They built a team and had a damn good HC that I wanted here but he refused Tepper's interview.  Young has been protected in ways no other QB has. Dalton has been kept because he has never been a threat to take the job from Young. We signed him to a 2 year deal this offseason when it was clearly evident we needed an upgrade. For 2m more per year we could have and should have looked at Brissett if we didn't go after Howell, Russell, Winston or anyone else. Anyone else other than Dalton would have been a serious risk to take Young's starting job. If Young hadn't been the 1st overall pick, and been a day 3 pick instead, he would have been cut as a rookie. If he were on any other team as a starter, this message board would be laughing like hell at whoever was starting him for 3 years. That's why this team gets murdered when Young doesn't play. He's been sheltered from ever having to worry about his job and the QB room proves it.  I've been extremely critical of how this team has been constructed the past 3 years, especially on offense. But this whole narrative that Bryce has always been good enough and it's everyone else's fault that he's not succeeding isn't matching up to what he's been putting on the field week in and week out. 
    • He sucks to be honest. He hasn't made much of a difference at all.
