If we can beat the Rams then this team damn well better handle business against the Saints and Bucs.

This division should be ours for the taking. Anything less is completely inexcusable.

I said it in another thread during the week, but the issue under Canales/Bryce has been and continues to be when we don’t need it/expect it, the team shows up.  When we need it/expect it, they don’t show up.  That HAS to change down the stretch.

because I agree, the division should be ours.  There are ZERO excuses.  We just beat Stafford and the Rams while half our fuging defense was out with injuries, including our best coverage man.  That poo says it all.  There are literally no excuses for us to not win the games in front of us.

This teams playoff fate is going to rest on Bryce's shoulders. When he plays well, we play well. We have beat 3 of the best offenses in the NFC (DAL, GB, and LA) this season.

 

When he sucks, we suck...as evidence by our loss to the 1-8 Saints at home to a rookie quarterback.

In typical Carolina fashion, I still think that loss is going to cost us a playoff spot this season. We're probably going to finish 1 game behind Tampa in the standings.

    • There's a flip side to that, if he has 2 or 3 more great games and we make the playoffs, there's going to a tsunami of momentum to extend him going into next year. If he remains inconsistent, we will all be arguing all off season long. I think he's done enough to where he's going to at the very least, be the starter in 2026. Nothing is going to change that with 7 wins on the board at this point, even if we flame out and lose the remainder of them. We haven't won 7 games  If we win 8 games, that would be our highest win total since the 2017 season. That's very significant. 
    • GWD is the critical stat for an NFL QB. What you need for perspective is GWD %.  This is how many opportunities he converts. 2023 was 12.5%. 2024 was 33.3%. 2025 is 50%. Career is 28.9%. A consistent playoff winning QB is in the 30% range. A championship caliber QB is in the 40% range. He has been tracking well even with his major limitations under the development of Canales. This is the only reason he is holding on, but he is at the same level of a Derek Carr with the Raiders. Carr was 32.4% GWD in his first 3 seasons with 12 GWD in 37 opportunities. This gives you perspective on why he is frustrating to evaluate. Carr did what for the Raiders? 2 winning seasons in 9 seasons with 4 different HCs/OCs. This is what we want as Panthers fans? A decade of average with potential and many moments of hope? At least he'll win a QB skill competition like Carr, right?
