Seems like even reddit has shifted.  I think that place coddled Bryce more than the team until now.

Yeah there's a pretty substantial switch this week.

The more tape there is, more evident the reality becomes.

The footwork, shallow jittery drops that give him no sight lanes, frenetic pacing, slow pocket speed, inability to outrun IDLs, poor placement, and really, he can't move the ball unless he's running empty sets or has an easy dump off.  He'll have 2-3 good intermediates per game (if that).

Yea but this is year 3.  That’s been happening for a while.  Just interesting that this particular game flipped a lot of folks.

I'm saying it just takes time.  

With this game in particular, even though it was turnover clean, it somehow made the inability to do anything decent that more obvious.  It was just straight up inefficiency and misses. 

Daffy duck'd

Why does our local paper not print something like this? We have to get a NY org to put the truth in writing?

Local papers have to care about Tepper and what he thinks because access to the Panthers has changed since Tepper bought the team. 

 

The NY Times... Well they don't give a fug what Tepper thinks. Lmao

The book is out on how to defend him. 

It's not the offense because the throws are there. It's literally BY. 

If you defend the boundary numbers out, instruct your pass rushers to stay disciplined to impact throwing lanes, drop LB into shallow zones with two deep all that's left is bait throws over the middle that lead to turnovers, throws out to the flat, outs and comebacks. If you're defending the boundary correctly all of those throws will be contested heavily and lead to little yac and big plays.

 

All the other team has to do is survive the scripted part of the early game and sit back and let Bryce inevitably panic.

Can't throw a pick if you throw the ball into the dirt with no one within 10 feet of the spot lol

If just looking at him and can’t see it maybe you could figure it out from how teams play us - they don’t respect his game.

His footwork saps the velocity from an already below average arm and it hurts him. The margins shrink when the ball takes that extra tick to arrive on the longer throws. You could foresee this too, I mean come on. 

NFL defenders are not college defenders, the NFL is as fast as football gets. You have to beat those defenders.  There were valid questions about whether he could, that ended up with bad answers.

Eh I would easily rather watch Justin Fields or Tyrod Taylor play qb than BY. Would be an extremely hard sell even for a team that shitty lol. 

Yeah. I came to understand that even if we could somehow scheme up some wins with Young, and we probably could… I don’t like watching that brand of ball.

      Panthers 2026 schedule

      By Soul Rebel · Posted

      In May of 2026, it looks like a challenging schedule...and it probably is.  I rarely listen to the "strength of schedule" conversations that light up social media this time of year. Each year teams improve and decline. I think there's chunks of the year we need to take care of business and the week 5 bye is not desired.  I do think if we don't hit the bye week at 3-1, it's going to be a major uphill battle given the schedule in front of us. This season falls on three people, regardless of schedule strength: Canales, Bryce, Evero.  Canales: Finally can truly coach all aspects of the team and not focus with gameday prep for OC duties anymore. He drives the bus and needs to get these guys in position to win each week. There's no way vets come in and put it on the line every week to watch our QB sh!t the bed (See: SF game last year). Bryce: Despite everyone's obsession with thinking Bryce is a guaranteed extension, I think this year will truly be his "prove it" year. If he comes out the way he has the past three years, I really don't see how vets and coaches can continue to put him under center long-term. He might play out that fifth year as the starter, but I think next offseason his long-term replacement is found. I also think there's no excuses with the weapons and commitment we've made on offense to insulate him with every possible weapon.  Evero: Best personnel he's had since he's been here...no excuses. Figure out how to blitz effectively. Figure out how to use CBs whose strengths are press/man. Figure out how to utilize a talented front-7 to get the hell of the field. Outside of FS and maybe....maybe ILB, there are few weaknesses on this unit.

      Canales can never get his teams ready in the first week of the season so far. Hope that changes or Ben Johnson is going to take his azz to school.
