I know Bryce sux but he is playing well enough for us to be winning this game right? It’s the ground game and defense that are the problem or am I missing something? I feel like he is getting a lot of blame for this game but he didn’t give up 100 yards rushing in a half.

No they wouldn't

There is no way in hell a player is reacting to that ball tipped just in front of them and changing the trajectory as much as it did.

The ONLY way a player is catching that is if the tip caused it to hit him in the body/arm and because of it he was able to secure it. 

But in no world is any player in the history of the sport making that catch because they were able to adjust to the tip pass and purposefully catch it on it's new trajectory, not with him already diving/going down and extending for the ball.

So you saying if he caught that, that would’ve been the most unimaginable catch ever in nfl history ? Stop it lol no tipped pass has ever been caught in nfl history based off your opinion huh ?

Well...that would be the line....Like to see Etienne in there and that hack they drafted to IR...

The line misses Hunt badly. Also worried Moton might be hitting a wall.

Doesn't change my feelings about our backs though, especially given that Dowdle isn't under contract past this year.

Weirdly Bryce has looked decent today, the defense is a dumpster fire though. Just can't play complementary football apparently.

The Panthers aren’t the kind of team to ever do that except with like 2 seasons being the exception

In THAT specific situation, then yes it would have been.

If he adjusted his hands/arms/body to make that catch given where it was tipped and that he was already diving for the ball, it would have been one of the most insane catches ever.

It's not about tipped passes not being able to be caught, it's the totality of him diving one direction and the ball getting tipped a good foot (if not more) in the opposite direction, all maybe 2 feet in front of him.

It's just not possible to react and adjust THAT much in THAT short of a distance.

Again, the only way that ball is getting caught is if it was tipped directly into his arm/body and that allowed him to bring it in, he was never adjusting to it given the situation.
