Are the Panthers playing afraid?

[electro's horse]

I certainly wouldn't describe the way the Panthers played on Sunday as confident.

Canales will probably be another guy who takes Tepper’s money and runs. He’s soft, he coaches soft and he basically lets the players run the team. Probably a great guy but not HC material.

I wouldnt describe what they are doing as playing football

I've become this guy...

They play afraid because they know that one mistake will doom the entire game due to the QB/coaching/everything. You can't play like that!

When I think back to Bryce Young’s debut the biggest reaction, of many incredulous reactions, was to his lack of urgency.

I remember being totally, well, shocked, I guess is the word. It was crystal clear I had no explanation or rationalization for it. 
He was still doing the crappy parallel to the LOS slow dropback. 

I think he has infected the whole team now. 
edit: at least the offense. I meant to say, I have become numb to it after years of it, I think, because it doesn’t look like that now it looks like what I am used to seeing on Sundays. I guarantee you, get him out of here and we get better.

idk, running HB draws on 3rd and 10 and punting inside the opponent's 50 screams playing scared

playing "not to lose" while getting blown out in the 1st quarter is insane
