How many games before they pull the plug for good

[Mage]

Just as it was last year: benching Bryce Young is a DUMB move.  Literally 0 upside to it.

Yes, Bryce Young sucks.  But we're stuck with it.  Why bench him and risk a lucky win or two with the back-up QB momentum?  Why risk Bryce getting reinserted into the line-up and playing "inspired" football, fooling us into giving him one more year?

Stop making the wrong choice, Carolina. I said it last year and I will say it again: Bryce Young is a "earn you the No. 1 overall pick" level QB.  You have to ride him out the entire season.  Let him do what he's already done and that is secure the worst record in the league.

Not benching Bryce and starting Dalton would lose the locker room for DC.  The players respect and play harder for Dalton

Yes. Play just hard enough to end up picking #14 overall and miss out on all the QBs.

This is a silly comment. In reality he benched Bryce and was never going back to him.  Dalton got hurt and they were forced to play Bryce.  Bryce played "well enough" to get another chance.  He is stinking his second chance up and he is probably on thin ice as it is.

that's exactly why Canales got fugged.  They were only forced to play Bryce because they allowed that to be what happened when Andy got hurt.   The talk was all about trading Bryce Young  given it was clearly over.  Morgan and Carolina didn't pull the trigger.......they allowed for the nightmare comeback (of meh) to occur. 

In the end, it blew up in their face sort of like the Wilks tank job attempt.  Wilks blew that up in their faces too.  Bryce ended up fugging up their plans.  Carolina can't do anything right.  Even when they sort of get it right in the big picture.  

They should of dealt Bryce.  And if you want to actually tank....you keep Rhule and trade CMC.  You don't insert of functional HC into the dysfunction.

From the fan perspective, I agree. From a locker room perspective, you're gonna lose the locker room continuing to play a wholly ineffective QB. You lose your ability to hold anyone accountable and you're basically telling the locker room you're not even trying.

I think it's becoming apparent that there isn't anything in the locker room to lose.

this.  although, I think you gotta slightly worry about a very small handful of competent players.  Horn, Brown, Hunt, etc.   Eventually, everyone starts thinking like Theilen.

I'm pretty sure they've seen this movie before. They get paid no matter what so they will get over it.

This. Who are we going to lose exactly? Is Xavier Legette going to throw a hissy fit and start actually catching more than rodents? Is Trevin Wallace going to stop trying to tackle? And if he did could we even tell?

I would rather just have a draft pick. I'm not trading one bad qb for another. 

Yeah, AR is an even bigger bust, the trade helps no one and we had one circus in Bryce, let's avoid the next with Sanders.

I wish people would stop commenting on trading for a QB. NO. If we get another QB it will likely be via Draft. Regardless, won't happen until off-season. No need to trade for someones backup that will likely give us similar if not worse results, in an attempt to win games that you will all complain about us winning come draft time. Let this season play out no matter how ugly it gets. Jay Z needed 30 years to do something and so will we or however the saying goes.

Jay-Z is Hindu, so it was his 13th life before he made it. 2937 Carolina Panthers win the Galaxy Bowl versus the Proxima Centauri Centaurs.

Players in the locker room don’t give a poo about draft position

Which is exactly why it's the organization's job to care about it.
