I think Benjamin Zolak said it best: Put Bryce Young on a team with a great run game and great defense and he can be successful. Think of Brock Purdy. 

Basically he is saying the last pick of the draft and Bryce Young are interchangeable.
Okay Purdy could have gone higher obviously. And I’d have probably taken Bryce if he were there in the late 3rd. 
Edit: strictly on his size and arm, he would be off the board until then. Standards.

Purdy is better than Bryce.

I think if you swap Daniel Jones and Bryce Young the Colts are still 2-0 and Panthers are still 0-2 though. 

Either way, there are only 6-8 teams happy with their QB play and we aren't one of them. We aren't alone. And it's not going to change next year if we draft a new QB, it's very rare to get a reliable, above average franchise QB nowadays. And even with Cam, we got 3 good years out of 8 with him. Same with Jake. 2003, 2005, 2008. We are definitely a "have not" franchise

Your reasoning is based on what you want. You are not operating on a basis any different from any other fan. We can argue all day about the pieces and the coaches around Bryce Young. The simple fact of the matter is as a first overall pick he is supposed to elevate those around him in situations too. We are not seeing that. In fact he is putting his team in early holes due to his physical limitations and his poor decision making. And he has done that now three consecutive years to start the season.

If you want to sing kumbaya now that's great brother I've got no problems with you but you have been the complete opposite of that for over a year now and spamming poo reactions over Bryce. You have been by no means an objective observer anymore than anyone else.

And no I am not going to quit the Panthers because Bryce Young becomes a bust. I mean you yourself have flip flopped on him multiple times so I really don't even know where you get the audacity to even suggest that lol. But again. Thanks for the conversation sir.

What do you make of CJ having a lower QBR currently than Bryce while also sitting at 0-2. That’s the guy you wanted right?

It's telling that you switch from making every excuse imaginable for Bryce Young for going on two+ years now to celebrating because Stroud and the Texans are 0-2.

I mean even if Stroud stays where he is now he will still be better than Bryce Young. Which isn't saying much granted. But he has 2 playoff wins in two years and even the Texans backup has a playoff win. That's 3 more playoff wins than anyone in our QB room including the veteran Dalton. And that franchise was one play away from the first overall pick two years ago.

I didn't even want to trade up. I didn't want to mortgage the future because we had already been doing that to no avail. But it wasn’t up to me. Once we did. I said we should take the best pure passer available. That was the only logical path forward at that point.

But if this is how you cope do you man. I'll be over here with the rest of the folks firmly residing in reality.

I mean you refused to actually address anything I’ve said previously so I figured we should just jump to your real problem. You wanted CJ. And CJ doesn’t look good right now because the situation is different. Same reason Patty don’t look like the goat anymore.

    • After watching Dan for 3 yrs now, I think I understand his plan. It’s a simple plan that should work for the long run.     I saw some of this last yr. Dan wants a vet and a young player at each position. I really think we go OT if one they like there. Moton is aging, Icky will not be back until 27, if ever. We need to get ahead of the tackle problem 
    • You are just stressing too much about these particular positions. You want to upgrade from Bryce and I understand that but you aren’t going to really get that without getting into a bidding war for a QB2 potential QB1 like Willis. You could possibly trade for Mills or the backup for Chicago but they are still gambles and their teams will won’t decent picks.  Again the Eagles thought KP was a capable enough backup to trade for him once their backup was hurt and won a Super Bowl with him as QB2. The point is most teams aren’t rolling with some stud QB2/3 that is going to push even a bottom tier starter. They are better off the building their roster in other areas. The Rams are rolling with Bennett right now as QB2 for example.  The goal is winning absolutely. We overachieved last year even with stumbling into the playoffs. Another year and this staff needs to take the next step in building a team. Will Grier has little to no impact on that….
    • Three straight first round WRs is straight up Matt Millen poo. Considering the draft capital we have tied up on Bryce after that trade we would basically have spent damn near all of our draft capital in recent years on QB and WR just to put one of the most anemic passing offenses in the league on the field. Clown show poo.
