If Andy throws for 500 yards well you bench him for the guy that will give you 180. Of course. 
 

Onay then, this is funny poo but the goal is to have Bryce prove what he can do with the team they built for him

So we hope he can play and be healthy and show what he has.  Because we need to see that he can be the QB to go forward with. Once and for all.

Not saying he will but if Andy throws 3TDs and 400 yards, will it still be a 1 week injury?

If we’re throwing that much against Buffalo, we seriously messed the game plan and probably lost. 
 

Buffalo is giving up nearly 170 yards rushing per game. There’s NO reason to come out slinging it everywhere.

If it isn't a heavy dose of Rico early and often, you will have a pretty good idea of the outcome, I suspect.

Huddle wants Rico heavy running and play action passing.

Watch almost none of that actually happen on Sunday.

My 500 yards thing was answering a disgruntled Bryce fan who was trolling/mocking. 
IOW it wasn’t based in reality. Offhand, 225, 1 TD, lots of rushing yards is closer to what a good game from the offense would look like.

You run to set up the deep pass on PA.

Lol he was benched

I will admit, it is odd that even if he’s declared healthy, he wouldn’t start. To me, if he’s “the guy” if he’s healthy, he plays. I’m not saying this is a benching, just odd wording by Schefter. I would imagine the team is just playing it safe with him?

It is strange, but no less surreal than him being the 1.1 in the NFL draft. 
If I were in the situation the team is in, I would be Not want to aggravate that injury and would be overly cautious. He needs to be fully healthy so he can properly evaluated in these games that are coming up. 
They see Dalton in practice, they saw the film from Sunday. Maybe he has looked good enough that they think a side benefit to the caution is getting to look at the offense with a different guy running it. 
 

The worst thing that could come out of it is Bryce is hampered the rest of the season

jesus christ, what weird subforum did I stumble upon where people are talking like Dalton is this incredible back up that is going to throw for 400 yards and 4 TD's like we haven't seen him in this role before, and that there is this master plan to fake Bryce's high ankle sprain in order to bench him during a winning season with favorable stats?

You had me until the literal last 2 words of this post

favorable stats?

Bryce is literally in LAST place in passing yards amongst the QBs who have started every week this season.

But sure, I guess you could consider that "favorable"

      2026 World Cup Thread

      By Joe Bear · Posted

      Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.

      Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly.

      Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
