It's comical at this point.  Hes been objectively one of the worst qbs in the NFL going on 3 years now and folks still make excuses

I'm just wondering why TF didn't Cam get these kind of excuses from his own fanbase? One mediocre game and fans would be calling for his head, let alone 3 years of TERRIBLE play. I know people around here are old enough to remember the "start Derek Anderson" days.

Bro, the highest paid OL AND Chubba is a dang good setup.   That's what Bryce had last year.  

Rico Dowdle doing some historical poo for 2 weeks this year, doesn't mean Hubbard isn't a rock solid RB. 

See.....this is what Bryce defending does.  So much gymnastics that you end up where you just did. 

Nope. I said he has been very consistent but he left alot of meat on the bones. You interpreted it how you wanted. If you can't see that, then well...

You can’t be serious 

Dead serious. Put Hurts on this team and import their offensive system and we could largely duplicate what they do. Our OL is at least as good. They have two really good WRs but the offense isn't really built to heat utilize them. Barkley has regressed pretty hard from last year's peak. Dowdle is literally out playing him. Hell, he's outplaying every RB in the league over the past two weeks. THAT is the story with the Panthers right now. Yeah, Bryce has been playing better again but he's been playing better while riding a backup RB who has been the best offensive player in the league over the past two weeks.

They've won those last 2 games too. Bryce hasn't brought them down. He's actually made big plays in those games. Dowdle has been the star though for sure. And yo know AJ Brown and Smith change the way defense play the Eagles. Exchange him for Legette or Tremayne and things would be very different. 

Yeah, Bryce is basically playing like an average starter while riding the best RB in the league. Not saying Dowdle is the best RB in the league overall, but he has been over the past two weeks.

Jalen Hurts was pulling it off w/ Miles Sanders.  You poo'd on Hubbard as not being enough for him.

Yep. That's what I said at the beginning before "feelings". He's not playing bottom tier. He's average right now.

Miles Sanders rushed for damn near 1300 yards in Philly. More than any season for Chuba. And I didn't "poo" on Chuba. That's your interpretation. I think he's a gritty between the tackles running back, but he isn't a homerun threat. Never has been. He's a consistent get you positive yards back.

He's played like an average starter in maybe a third of his career games. Below average to bad in the rest. My point is that if you put a 200 yard RB behind pretty much any NFL roster caliber QB he's going to be able to play like an average starter leaning on that running game. But we're talking about a third year #1 overall pick with 30+ starts under his belt and we're still having to grade on a massive curve like we're playing some young mid-round pick who was drafted to be a backup. If that was the type of guy we were playing yeah, everyone could be happy about it but it's not. It's a guy we mortgaged the franchise on because the organization thought they were getting a franchise QB who could carry a team and we're still having to try to find ways to carry him.

He rushed for 74 more yards than Chuba did last year. He also played in all 17 games versus 15 for Chuba.

They went the playoffs before that with Hurts being the #1 rusher on the team.  The highest paid OL and Hubbard would be plenty for Hurst to lead a more productive O than Bryce.   He doesn’t have to be a take it to the house RB to out pace Bryce Young lol

Sanders rushed for 74 per game, then Swift rushed for 65 per game the next year…..and in 2024 Hubbard rushed for 73 per game.  

Hubbard paired with the highest paid OL is plenty for Hurt to run read option and make some easy passes with and THAT is going to outpace a BY offense (which the last 2 isn’t Rico games)

The point was Miles Sanders wasn't just a guy in Philly. He was at least as good as Chuba has been in Carolina. 

In your opinion, in what year do the excuses stop for bryce?  I mean the most expensive line in football, a top tier rb, 2 first round wr's.  So tell me at what point do you simply just accept he isnt a good nfl qb?

    • Like many of the old heads, I’ve been here for a long time.  I got a lot of respect for everyone on this board for your dedication to this team.  We’ve all been through it during the tougher years. At this point in life, I’m not one to judge anyone’s level of dedication, or their reasons why anymore.  Time, and a lot of bad football, will do that.  For me, it’s simple.  We share a common bond.  For that, I love and appreciate all of you crazy SOB’s. For me, last season was at a minimum, entertaining.  BY lead a young team to multiple come from behind 4th qtr wins.  That showed me heart, and that he has the clutch gene.  That’s the wildcard intangible.  For me, that was fun to watch even  if it was mindbogglingly frustrating at times.  Over the past two seasons, we have progressively built a better team around him.  On paper, the defense should be better this season.  That’ll help.  Let’s see what he can do as the other guys continue to develop too.  Besides, his contract is cheap for a few more years, and we just made some smart cap decisions during the draft. Let’s see how it shakes out. 
    • Hiring Shula & his Cam save us playbook.
    • I would very much liked to have seen Jake Delhomme's career if Tommy Jone no hurt Jake.  I just know that roster and the leadership were destined to hit paydirt but Jake was never the same after the elbow injury, and unfortunately he was the sole reason they didn't make it back to the big one.  I think that 08 team was the best in the league, and Jake masked his inability well all season til the Arizona game put it all on display.  I'll go back to the season prior even and say the 07 team was primed to be a competitor.  Jake was off to a fantastic start that year (for a Panthers QB).  They may have been a championship caliber club for a few seasons after 08 too.
