If we bring in a top 10 QB Bryce is pretty much done. 
No potentially take over. Bryce will be his backup.  

 I mean, Clausen stayed but he wasn't a former top pick.  Fields, Wilson, Lance, Pickett, Rosen, Haskins, etc.  Not sure any top pick can really can stay once a team moves on to the next top pick.  Gotta to think Bryce would be shipped off.

There are only 3 options going into 2026 for Bryce and the panthers

1. Pick up the 5th and go from there

2.Extend him

3. Trade him and draft his replacement

 

Year 3 is absolutely make or break for him in regards to his career with the panthers.  And for the record I hope he balls out.   Starting again with a rookie qb would just be a ruthless cycle and basically starting from square 1.......again

I saw the Panthers post some stories on instagram during training camp about a Make a Wish kid who wanted to be a quarterback. Bryce had him in the huddle with him and I legitimately had a moment where I wasn't sure who was who. Bryce really is a small person to be in the NFL.

decent odds the present cycle continues.   Where you might not draft the QB and go the random available vet route like we tried in the Teddy or Darnold/Baker route.   We most certainly can't afford to move up in a draft go get "our guy".   The roster is still paying the price for that type move last time.

Option 1 is most likely. Even if he kills it this year, it wouldn't be prudent to rush an extension for one good season. If you have to pay him more because you waited another year, then he earned it. And that's OK. Adjust accordingly.

Yeah but at least that QB would be not short. 
I keep going back to the fact other than Wilson no other short QB has ever won a Super Bowl. The success rate of short QBs is very, very low. Like count on one hand low. 
Yeah some people would include Brees too but I don’t consider a 6 foot tall QB short, imo.

Young needs to be the reason they win vs they reason  they lose …starting in Jacksonville 

thats what rd 1 qbs are supposed to do

…also cant continually cut down the playbook to cover for  his  short comings 

for the franchise, this opening game against Jacksonville is huge  
 

They need to win it

should they lose, i don't think anyone is   up for hearing:

‘it is a long season’

‘We  will go back to work’

’they did some good things but didn't finish’

‘Im sure, insert player’s  name’ would like to have that one back’

Honestly, i hope for the best with Young but if someone is available in the draft with less physical issues and upside,  do it before another year is wasted and make young earn his position

    • We could quibble about was that an answer to what I asked but I  don’t see it as being one. Look, he agreed to this Evero thing. Up front. Apparently anyway. Took the job with those conditions in place. I buy that and will work off of it.  This play calling issue isn’t the same thing. I am not in the mood to delve into Canales’ shortcomings and get out the pitchforks at the moment. I will abstain from that topic and stick to the quandary the dissenters who want to usurp his play calling power, find themselves in. As far as that goes I am still on the fence and think the play calling is Bryce centric and the play selection/playbook is affected. That does not mean I know that if the playbook was open he would be great play caller. Just that he is hampered right now.  Inserting an OC not of Canales’ approval changes the original parameters of the assumed agreement.  Unless you think Tepper placed a contractual prescription to allow Tepper to dictate that he can insert a play caller of his choosing after a time period if he is not satisfied with Canales’ work.  Which, do you really think that is in play?  I do not.    Unless it is, Canales has the option to yea or nay. As I said, it could be forced on him. But they only do that if they want him out.  And as of now his stock is up, I would have to say I don’t own any but I think it is up. He had the stadium rocking, the team in the playoffs, and has that sorry lil draft pick trending upward. Even at this very low rate.  I think he has ‘hand’ right now as they say on Seinfeld. This is something that may get play in the 2026 season, not now. IMO.     
    • Canes now have 19 losses on the year. Here is the truly alarming stat. 13 of those were multiple goal loses. 9 of those were 3 goal plus losses. This team is getting blown out more than any other year under Rod.     why?  Blue line is a total mess. It’s just no good with their combinations.  It pains me to say this, but they were mikes better with Burns and Orlov. They need Slavin so bad.  Health.  Size. The team is too small and has no physical play. Most forwards do not forecheck.  Worst under Rod.  Goalie play. Pretty average to sub par. PK is downright bad. It’s allowing a little over a goal a game. Worst under Rod.    Team will not win a playoff round under its current group of players. It’s not constructed to do so against heavy teams.      solutions.  Must get physical size by the trade deadline. Rod and Tulsky know this. That probably has to come with the 2C.  KKs size but a better scorer and meaner.  The need another physical winger.  Goalie. Either go all in on a top guy on a bad team or get average. Lastly, better defense. Need a Right shot heavy defenseman.  Yes that could mean someone’s favorite dman could sit. Looking at you Boom.    thats 3-4 new guys that must be brought in for them to have a chance at a cup.  And it’s all players that are different and better than what they have.  They have the cap. KK is gone. Add 4 mill back.    And then hope it’s jells unlike Mikko.
