Any well functioning team benches Bryce

It's going to be a long season. People here have already made up their minds and are staunchly in their respective corners regarding the QB. All the bluster about agendas and bias and hating is just noise. Unfortunately I feel like it's only a matter of time before we run into another buzzsaw like we did in New England. Just how it goes being a Panthers fan. But for today I am appreciative of Dowdle our young receivers and rookies like Etienne and Mitchell and for the defense as a whole for stepping up. It's good to see those guys gain some confidence.

I think the thing is it's fine to win games where your QB doesn't need to perform particularly well.

The issue is that his best games this year have been those games.

And we gotta decide what to do with him after this year... Which, I think we know.

And I am fine with moving on after this year if he doesn’t drastically improve or drafting some competition. It’s the takes of calling for benching now that is just so mind blowing for a fan to post

It's not like he just had a 23/27 game with 4 TDs or something. He's been mediocre at best.  He did just enough this game to not lose and ride a crazy rushing performance.

The example of the problem is accurately seen looking at last season.   He is so bad and lacks so many tools…..and we have skewed the bar so much you could see improvement this year.  I mean he has been bad every single week without fail.  So he could “improve”.  Just like last year…and it screws us because we have a dude playing QB who can’t do NFL basics.  Then you got people claiming he improved

Panthers won, heck yeah!

Did Bryce prove that he's the dude?  Nope.  He was a big reason we were down 17.  Two early turnovers again.  The first fumble was stupid.  The tipped ball wasn't a great throw.

But he was also part of the team that didn't give up.  So there's a little star for him.

Bryce continues to be in a prove it year.  So far, not great.  Not good.  Subpar.

Bro you’re acting like we have legitimate competition waiting on the bench.  It makes zero sense you’re delusional

Dalton might be washed but he functions as a QB is supposed to in these offenses to work…..that’s why every year when he appears he sets the passing highs on the year.

and you can’t have a well run org where you have a unique Bryce exception for performance at this point

Dalton is good for one or two games. He is a good change of pace but way worse for the entire season. We saw that last year

Everyone knows the Panthers need a long-term answer at qb. But you don't bench him for this game and certainly not for Andy after bouncing back from that 1st quarter. The team can continue to look for a qb for the future. 

Exactly

    • Well it's not exactly new information that you don't have to draft a QB in the top 5 to compete for a championship. But the poorly run organizations end up with the first three picks. Most of the QB's drafted there never stand a chance. And then you have teams like the Panthers led by the Tepper's that would rather make a big splash to serve their own egos and get talked about in the media for several weeks by trading all the way up than actually being intelligent and strategic and staying put. Worst outcome in that is if you miss you can try again without mortaging your future. But there is another layer in all this. The league is changing again. Even a guy like Darnold with all his physical tools every box checked in that area did very little in the Super Bowl. Seattle had a stout roster all around. Same thing with the Eagles when they blew out the Chiefs. Yet here we are stuck with the tiniest QB in the league.
    • Which highly drafted QBs have actually experienced having a short leash? Most of these guys get multiple years of starting to show what they have.
    • I actually think Cam Newton is directly to blame for the crazy short leash these QBs are given now.  He was so good so early in his career that he reset the standard for young QB play.  Before he showed up it wasn't uncommon for the learning curve to be a full two or three seasons.  The high draft pick guys that had short careers prior to him typically had injuries or off field issues.
