We won, but Bryce and Canalas still blow

Bryce didn’t pass deep at all, was throwing behind receivers, couldn’t consistently get first downs, and was generally unproductive after the first drive. 

That wasn’t dictated by the game score; that’s how the vast majority of his pro games have gone, even his “good” ones (I think most people have forgotten how the eagles game actually played out)

the fact that Penix was out there shitting on the field and rolling around in it and getting it on his clothes and feet and then walking into the house and touching all the walls isn’t relevant. 

This is just who Bryce at his general best is: 100-150 yards, around 12-15 completions, maybe one completion downfield, maybe a touchdown, maybe a turnover, maxing out at about 22 points depending on how bad the other team is. 

game flow had nothing to do with that.

Would you be okay with this being his ceiling. Middle of the pack QB who can do basically what needs to be done to win some games. Not a franchise QB nor a total bust. Average QB at best. 

 

Should they ride this train (if this is indeed the case), and just keep building the rest of the team out. To many needs to keep neglecting other aspects of the team for one guy. Let's face it, he is what he is.

 

By the way.....great win Panthers and just what we all needed. Good job

No. That is the definition of mediocrity. It looks great next to 2-15, I will concede that. 
He has to do better. He to be the reason, not the weak link.

That's called purgatory.

The problem is even in games where he is turning the ball over and largely terrible eventually it opens the door for garbage time stats that skew the conversation and simply serve as a tool for some to argue in favor of prolonging the inevitable.

For a third year QB the only numbers that should hold weight are what he does in crunch time and when the game matters. Even in the recent dominating win there's just no meat on the bone there. Nothing that stands out.

This may ruffle some feathers, but if we had and an average QB, we would have won by 50 points. Canalas still completely devalues the run when our best weapon is still Chuba. Make of it what you want but it’s fools gold. Bryce and Canalas will figure out a way to screw this up next week. 

STFU

You are preaching to the choir on this one Frank. I have been in a really bad fan mood since they did the deed, because I saw years of this coming, which did come, and because of all the mass hysteria along the way whenever he doesn’t fail. 
It is like TDS but in reverse.

Next week opponent (Patriots), the worst pass D in the NFL.  

 #2 run D allowing 2.8 per carry.  

Cardinals, Cowboys and *Ravens are technically worse.  Ravens  playing tonight

ATL out gained Panthers in total, rush and pass.

The game was won by ST mainly by field position. I mean BY just needs around 35 yards and they were in FG range a few times.

      Jared Feinberg's Falcons v Panthers film breakdown

      By TheSpecialJuan · Posted

      The Panthers did a great job of countering the Falcons' pass rush in the run game. They utilized veteran wideout David Moore, a good run blocker on the perimeter, as the motion man to help with crack-toss plays and trap blocks. It was also interesting to see more Sean McVay wide zone concepts in Canales’ version, especially with the “insert” concept that is a table in these systems.   Second-year cornerback Chau Smith-Wade didn’t come out of the gates hot, but settled in and put forth a fine performance. His spacing in zone coverage tightened up and it began to have an impact later on—like on his pick-six of quarterback Michael Penix Jr. He also showcased good matching capabilities while having some impressive man reps and tackles in space. You have to appreciate how well Ejiro Evero’s defense rallied to the football. Some runs that would, in the past, go for chunk yardage were contained. Tackling was improved on all three levels of the field. Wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan was once again the leader in receiving yards (48) on Sunday, but he struggled away from the box score with a couple of drops. As head coach Dave Canales noted Monday afternoon, the Falcons did a great job staying in phases on McMillan, especially at the top of routes. Rookie safety Lathan Ransom showed more flashes of control as a tackler. He continues to show the physicality that is needed in Evero’s defense while having the athleticism and downhill burst to click and close sideline to sideline or north/south. https://pantherswire.usatoday.com/story/sports/nfl/panthers/2025/09/23/panthers-film-review-falcons-week-3/86308214007/

      Something positive (defense)

      By Jay Roosevelt · Posted

      Horn + Jackson + Smith-Wade might be the best CB trio we've had in a minute.

      I think we would have had a good shot. I believe at the time we had already traded for the first overall pick, so Baltimore could have then immediately get whatever replacement they wanted for Lamar in the draft or trade for someone else. I still am baffled we were one of the teams that put out that ridiculous statement about not pursuing Lamar.   Yeah, let’s not trade for the franchise carrying, mvp winning, all pro top 5 qb in league to help take this franchise higher places. They should have at least tried. They were willing to go all in on Watson but not Lamar, I don’t understand Tepper.
