Literally the only time I see you post is to glaze Bryce Young. Nothing about Dowdle or the offensive weapons.

At some point you can just choose to hope your young QB succeeds. It costs you nothing. The Panthers have already paid for it for you. Just wish the young man continues to improve. It’s the fastest path to your favorite team being better. When he plays bad you can criticize his play on the field, but he’s made some special plays these last few weeks. It’s ok to find joy in that. Life’s too short not to.

Like it or not, the quickest path to a franchise QB for the Panthers is if Bryce Young becomes one. Shouldn’t that be what you want?

Doesn't Bryce Young have only 1 career win on the road? Let's see how he builds on this and go from there. More than anything we need to see him and this offense build momentum and stack wins when the games still matter. Because the defense to their credit despite the lack of investment on that side of the ball have kept the offense in the game. They even held Dallas to a punt and gave the offense the ball back to win it on one last drive. It's been a team effort. In that regard we have to also tip a cap to Dave Canales because he's taken flack too maybe even moreso than Bryce Young. And last but not least Rico Dowdle is having a historic season so far. Most yards by a Panthers RB in two consecutive games. Clearly the team is rallying around one another. That's what we've wanted to see.

So the Mrs and I attended both of the previous two games (even though I was sick as a dog last year) but we weren't able to make it to this one.

Does this mean I was the problem? 😕

No other explanation possible. Sorry, but we’re gonna have to ask you to take one for the team in the future.

Seriously though, last year I had an extremely bad reaction to a medication I was takng and had been sh-tting my guts out for days 😖

We still made the trip, but right up till a few hours before gametime I had decided not to go.

Changed my mind at the last minute only to sit through another dog walk.

Hell, even today I was feeling awful around the first quarter.

But things got better 😁

Such a hater you act like it physically pains you to say something positive without a backhanded comment about him.

He won head to head against a good offense, and a solid QB in Dak.  Just enjoy it.

Technically it was against one of the worst defenses in the NFL. A defense that made Wilson look elite again. 
The last time he played a good defense was New England and he looks horrible. Bryce had benefited playing bad defenses these last two weeks and again next week. 
Bet he won’t look so good against the Bills though.

    • Watched the recent Mic'd up which had the Bucs game. This angle makes that fumble look so much worse, pretty sure it was inbetween Bryce's hands.   bbb.mp4
    • Here is what you did not mention (and I have not read the thread--but will--it is a needed) and that is the MAFF.  He is in a contract year (2026-5th year) and we will not know (in all likelihood) how the knee is healing by the time we have to decide on a mega deal.   If you consider the time it takes to fully heal is 12 months if all goes well, the injury is known to shorten careers.  Of course, a man of 330 lbs who needs agility to perform at a high level makes the injury a bit more serious than it was for Jimmy Graham, for example, who recovered in a remarkable 9 months.  Having said all that, I think he should be moved inside to guard.   While many NFL linemen can return to play after patellar tendon surgery, studies show a significant failure rate and reduced performance, with return-to-play (RTP) rates often cited around 50-56%, meaning roughly 44-50% don't make it back, and even those who do often see reduced careers and statistics, highlighting it as a devastating injury for linemen." I think you have to go after an elite OT, and I think it should be a first rounder because you don't sign elite LTs in free agency.  Ickey is already going to get paid $18m or so in 2026.    However, the money you save by not locking him down long term could go to a free agent edge or ILB.  It is very complicated if you start factoring in contracts, risks, cap, and the odds of recovery.    
    • Yes, we played the 2nd most cover 3 in the NFL behind the Raiders.   The flats and seams are the areas you want to attack it so its soft spots are areas qbs can hit quickly which can definitely hurt the pass rush.
