Bump this thread every time a beat reporter doesn’t ask about benching or extending Bryce

I mean they didn’t have any trouble asking about benching Chuba 

wonder what the difference is 

Fair play. In Chuba's case that was between him and a guy running better. 

By some sad, unfortunate design the guy behind Bryce is somehow worse

People keep saying this based on one game where the rest of the team played just as bad as Dalton did, he had a thumb fracture on his throwing hand, and his top line production was basically what Bryce does on a weekly basis.

I think it’s easier to comprehend the current qb situation if people convince themselves that Dalton is worse but there’s really not good evidence to believe that.

I would rather watch a washed Dalton than Bryce at the moment. It's much more understandable to watch a 37 year old backup struggle than a 3rd year #1 overall draft pick.

If that happened with a healthy Young I would be happy to watch Andy mainly due to what it would mean. We could be set free. 
 

And I wouldn’t mind Andy getting a shot at a better farewell game than he has right now. If he doesn’t play any more and maybe redeem himself he is going out in a bad way off of that crap he put down a few weeks ago.

I am just tired of Bryce at this point. Let's just end this and move on to the offseason knowing the Bryce era is over.

I will always watch. I just want to see a healthy Dalton and a different version of QB sucking. At least give me some QB suckage variety.

Dalton isn't worth watching. Even the Panthers decision makers know it. That's why two years in a row they've trotted out the same lame excuse revolving around his thumb. Anything to keep him off the field. Dan Morgan signing him to that contract extension is downright criminal.

There is - Dalton is washed and is stealing a pay cheque.

Bring me White.

You literally can't go into tank mode in a playoff hunt as a head coach. If that's the decision after we are mathematically eliminated, fine. 

Not sure what it would prove other than it can actually potentially get worse.

Might as well just sticky it. 

Only thing I have seen/heard fron guys like Ellis, council, person and Kaye lately is to let things "play out" with the last 5ish games.   Plenty of time to discuss Bryce in the off season.   

 

As if the last 5 games will change anyone's mind.

Well there is some pragmatism attached to that viewpoint. Dalton(who I would still rather see) isn't truly an upgrade and it's a little late in the game with options being almost nil to be digging in the unsigned FA scrap heap. 

Were it mu decision, I'd probably just sign Heinicke and at least try to get a middling backup up to speed for a game or two.

      The "now it's been three years" Grade for the 2023 Draft

      By lumbeecheraw75 · Posted

      overall agree on the draft grade as a whole on on each pick, but every time I read (and I have read it more than once) that we "gave up two firsts" for Bryce, I am confused. We gave up the 2024 first, but we swapped 2023 firsts, so we didn't give up anything there. We did give up our former first rounder in DJ, but I don't think thats what you mean as one of the "firsts" we gave up.

      The "now it's been three years" Grade for the 2023 Draft

      By Steves89 · Posted

      Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
