I think every single poster on this board knows this is a make or break year for BY and knows he hasn't been consistent enough to warrant a big contract extension.

I also think there are several posters here (CRA, LG in particular) who will never be happy with our QB situation unless we have a top 4 QB like Burrow, Allen, Jackson or Mahomes (and I'm fairly certain they would be bitching at Lamar if he was our QB). Getting a player like that is extremely rare and is something the Panthers haven't done in 30 years... and there's a good chance they will be waiting the rest of their lives as well because the Panthers have been a fairly unlucky franchise and are owned by someone who wants instant gratification.

So for those hoping these conversations will go away, they never will. Cam had a lot of the same negative posts here as well except for one season. It's just part of being in the Panthers fandom

People see what they want.  I have also stated since the moment we drafted Bryce….a badly owned team was screwing HIM over by setting him up to fail by coach/scheme design.   Core criticism isn’t actually Bryce…it’s Carolina/front office. 

I could see Bryce being good.  I could see Canales being good.  But I don’t see them as a pairing.  Football is about fit. 

Board is doing what the board does.  People were idiots who dared question the All Star staff.  People raged when Fitterer was criticized.  They raged when Rhule was criticized.   Until they didn’t.

Lots of promising signs from the back half of Bryce's year, and plenty of reasons for excitement... But confidence that he's already arrived seems massively overblown.  We've all seen players go on tears for a handful of games.  Bryce's tear was good relative to his peers at the time but it was only as notable as we made it because of how putrid he'd been prior to it. It isn't being a negative nancy to point out offensive limitations we had even during that stretch nor to express this is likely his last chance with the Panthers to prove himself (barring injury)

Either way, I'm rooting for him.

“But confidence that he’s already arrived seems massively overblown…”

I read this forum daily and pretty much every thread. I can’t recall a single poster making this assertion. You guys are wailing woe against a straw man.

The reality is many are hopeful that post-week 8 of last year is a launching point and  a significant vocal minority remain skeptical. The points on all sides have been beaten to death and most are just eager to see how it plays out. 

No one’s throwing a parade. They’re just out here in lawn chairs waiting for things to start. Nonetheless, some of you guys seem intent on pissing on everyone anyway.
