The problem is if he leaves, all of the Bryce fanboys will use it as an excuse for any regression or lack of progress that Bryce shows. Despite having an expensive OL and 2 first round picks at WR. I really would like to see the real Bryce this year before the 5th year option next spring.

The problem with this thought process that assumes the WRs taken in the 1st round are actually 1st round talents. People like you have made such a big deal about Bryce being bad in his first 2 seasons and gave the excuse he had "enough" talent around him to be a good player. Here is the talent that was around him

From NAS's thread

First two years

DJ Chark: free agent
Hayden Hurst: free agent
Diontae Johnson: free agent
Terrace Marshall, Jr.: free agent
Jonathan Mingo: traded
Miles Sanders: released
Laviska Shenault: free agent

Why do you expect our young QB to have thrived with the likes of the above list if 31 other NFL teams choose to not surround their QBs with these players? Tmac is probably going to be a good WR. Is it a surefire thing? No it isn't. Same with XL. How many drops did this 1st round pick you are propping up on a pedestal have his rookie year? You want Bryce to throw it to him AND catch it for him? Sounds like unrealistic expectations if you ask me.

All that aside it is put up or shut up time for this offense though. But just because we invested heavily in 1st round WRs doesn't mean they will automatically be good. With or without Bryce.

      I think the Panthers win 5 games max

      Also says a successful record for the Panthers would be 8-9 at minimum. Anything less let's us know something isn't clicking. Anything over 8 wins is over achieving

      Everything revolves around Bryce This Year

      Top 5 areas who hold most pressure according to AI:    Bryce Young (QB): As the 2023 No. 1 pick, Young’s under fire to boost his 2024 stats (11 TDs, 10 INTs) despite thin WR talent, or he’ll be labeled a bust faster than a comet crashing into a black hole. His growth is critical, like Burrow’s 2020-21 Bengals leap to the Super Bowl or Carolina’s 2001-03 rise from 1-15 to Super Bowl with Delhomme’s emergence—step up, or you’re just a pint-sized promise lost in the cosmos, oh cosmic quarterback. Dave Canales (Head Coach): Canales must scheme around limited WRs and a porous defense to lift the 5-12 Panthers, or Tepper’s impatience will send him packing like a wayward space probe. His play-calling needs to mirror the Lions’ 2020-22 rebuild under Campbell (3-13 to 12-5) or Carolina’s 2010-13 climb from 2-14 to 12-4—fail, and he’s back to assistant stardust, you playbook prophet. Dan Morgan (GM): Morgan’s tasked with upgrading the WR corps and defense after years of roster gaps, or he’ll be jettisoned like a malfunctioning satellite. Smart acquisitions, like the Bills’ 2018-19 additions for Allen’s playoff push or Carolina’s 2012-15 surge to 15-1, are his lifeline—miss, and he’s a galactic footnote, you roster wrangler. Defense: Allowing an NFL-worst 534 points in 2024, this unit must stop being a galactic sieve or remain the league’s punchline. Turnarounds like the 49ers’ 2018-19 defensive revival to Super Bowl contention or Carolina’s 2012-13 shift to 12-4 show it’s doable—stay leaky, and you’re the universe’s doormat, you generous tacklers. Wide Receivers: With no top-tier talent in 2024, this group—likely led by new faces like Tetairoa McMillan—must step up to give Young viable targets, or they’ll doom the offense like a starless void. Elevating like the Rams’ 2021 WR corps with Kupp for Stafford’s Super Bowl run, or Carolina’s 2002-03 receivers enabling an 11-5 Super Bowl push, is their mission—flop, and you’re catching nothing but shade, you route-running rogues.
