The Cardinals were trying on the 2nd to last drive, but the pressure (I don't mean pass rush) was much less.

He seems able to be a good QB when he has little to no pressure on him, e.g. last season near the end.  But the start of the season when we're still a competitive team, he really struggles.

Also he needs to just start chucking it up to Tmac the way he used to Thielen.

If he even did that we win this game today, but he poo his pants everytime he felt pressure. The refs tried to give him that one and he couldn’t even get a completion

I’ve been a Bryce defender from the start.


But after this performance I can’t sign off anymore. I was waiting for him to scan the field and throw it to the open guy for 12 straight plays so we can win the game on that final drive.

He did not and we lost the game. I can’t imagine how angry I would be, defense and special teams stepped up to the plate and gave us a chance at the end and we let them down. This win would have been SEASON defining. Now they go home and wonder what it would take to win with Bryce.

I was really hoping after last season he had turned the page.

He does look better than the start of last year, but then again the offense is much improved around him... and he basically gave the game away in the first few minutes.

that's the thing, this game wasn't even against a particularly good team, heh

Neither was the last one. Of they played D for another quarter then the stats would have been halted. Garbage time around strikes again and the Cards should be embarrassed regardless of the win

Not a Bryce fan, but the play calling that last drive was disgraceful. We had time to run a no huddle, quick pass game attack to get down the field, similar to the previous drive. Heck, we even had a timeout in our pocket.  Instead, we decided to call long developing deep routes which doesn't cater to Young's strength's. The Cards D-line were pinning their ears back, and we had no answer. That last drive is more on Canales than Young

I saw that too. We were killing them in the middle and with the defense they were running, we could continue to have guys sit in the middle and eat up yards. The penalties were helping us accomplish the same thing though. Plenty of time on the clock. The last 4 play calls were awful.

XL is definitely a worse player, but was taken at the end of the round.  What we traded for Bryce makes this so much worse.  But this thread isn't about Bryce being the biggest bust ever, lol.

I did evaluate Bryce honestly - but when it mattered most, he didn't come through.  That was true last game, it was true at the start of this game, and it was true at the end of this game. He no longer has teh excuse of not having a good WR, T-Mac is clearly incredible. The fact this dude needs perfect play from the people around him t o have any success is also ridiculous.

Let's be honest about his play, not just in a handful of 4th quarter drives with the game seemingly out of reach.

edit: Bryce is arguably the worst starting QB in the league over his career.

No small part of that is his inability to deliver when games actually matter.

One good receiver isn't enough these days. Even when we had Steve Smith, you could only do so much when teams could just take him away and not be scared of anyone else.

Honestly, don't care about his career to date, only where we go from here.

Last season showed promise. This game showed promise. Unfortunately, it's still just promise.

We don't have just 1 good receiver - we have 2. Renfrow looks decent. He's getting open. T-Mac is better than good, IMO. And Sanders was good at finding holes in the middle.

As to the middle... That's great and all, but then we ignore the very clear pattern we're seeing in his play. Will he turn the corner? I doubt it. But maybe he will, he'll get a chance against a division rival soon.

      Unless the league decides to rollback the rule book 30 years, that player at QB isn't winning any Super Bowls.  QB has to elevate those around him.  QBs that are carried by the team are always exposed in the playoffs. Closest thing to an average QB that has won the SB recently is Jalen Hurts.  But he's so unique with his legs and the unstoppable tush push that I don't think it's easy to compare him to anyone.  Certainly not someone who is subbed out for QB sneaks.

      You absolutely can have hope. You can’t convert people though; making advocacy posts are kind of … not reading the room.   I had a small hope that he would be able to at least manage some games and that they could make it work in some kind of no fun to watch fashion.  But honestly I had 100% determined he was not NFL starter material, and I had conviction. So to root for him to marginally succeed goes against the best interest of the Panthers long term, according to my beliefs. I wanted him gone the minute he got here if I am honest.It was up to him to prove otherwise.  He has rarely shown me anything to think I was wrong on his ceiling.  He did show me some courage last year, standing in the pocket and stepping into his throw in the face of pressure - but that has gone somewhere. He made some nice throws last year in places too, but they invested in him on the level of the Atlanta game should be his norm. Good luck seeing that again on Sunday. Still, he did it once, so technically it could happen again.
