Tepper has been quiet, but he will make his thoughts known one way or the other if Dan Morgan decides to cut ties with Bryce. I think he has given Morgan and Canales a long leash, but he would have a say in this. 

Mentioned elsewhere, it's also best to at least give some consideration to how the players feel, and all indications so far are they support Bryce.

And honestly, if we make it to the playoffs, you'll have a tough time arguing to dump Bryce before the option year.

I think Canales might end up being a long term answer.

Not convinced with Bryce...

I really don't want to get in a situation where Canales gets to draft a QB, that QB struggles mightily and Canales gets canned rather quickly getting the blame for not properly developing the guy. Bears made this mistake twice and - despite their current record - there's still a lot of question marks with Caleb.

This is maddening because, well, it's so up and down. When the kid's on, he can be great. When he's mediocre, we can still win based on a strong running game and good defense. When he's bad, and over his history he's this more than not, then it's a sad show that no one could win with.

How can anyone know what is going to happen right now? Really. It's like picking one flake in a snow globe and shaking it once a week... there is no telling where it will end up.

Things I did see on Sunday from Bryce: his teammates love him; he can make the big throws with good protection and good effort from his receivers. He isn't afraid to run. He can rise up against the best in competition (but he can also sink to the level of bad competition). 

All I can say is if Canales goes with an aggressive game plan for Bryce that leans on a hot-hand running game, the team can beat anyone. If there's any wishy-washy play calling, then Bryce melts and couldn't beat anyone. 

Maybe the person Bryce needs to win over more than anyone is Canales.

Panthers have improved.  And you can zero in on why…..huge shift in defense from last year to this year. 

pass game is actually less productive this season vs last.  Call it a push if you want.   The run game and D is finding way to win some games with a bad pass attack.  

QB play is bottom of the league for 3 straight seasons.  And it’s just because the QB is the QB

We’re not bottom in the league for qb play dude. Have you watched the Saints, Browns, Vikings, Jags, Jets, Titans, Raiders, Dolphins this season?

We have the 25th ranked pass attack.    185 per game average. 

yeah, those teams suck too.  But even the Jags and Saints average more per game putting up over 200 per game.  Not saying they aren't bad.  

But saying we aren't a bottom pass attack is again.....just denial of reality and facts.  And it's almost impossible to call the Jags bad....and not us lol.  They also have virtually identical ground production per game.  All that while putting up more points per game than us. 

real question is, what are you watching.

Passing yards are misleading. We are a ball control, run first team so we won’t have high passing yards. Some of those teams are always playing from behind which increases passing yardage.

Because we are limited at QB

the Panthers have played from behind the majority of the season boss.  A the half and going into the 4th. 

 we have a weak pass attack because we have a weak QB

    • To kick this up, The Athletic has a really comprehensive piece out where pretty much all QB questions are addressed. It is worth seeing.  https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/7083539/2026/03/04/starting-quarterback-projections-free-agency-draft/?source=user_shared_article I’m putting something specific here but it should have a thread or something. It is an extensive exercise.  This is a dense write up with a lot of column inches used, about the Jets and Murray and Reich, all this stuff.. then it goes to backup QB and there is Dalton.  I am pasting that part: As for Dalton, Reich is installing the offense he was trying to run in Carolina in 2023 before he got fired, and Dalton was with the Panthers then; he’s an ideal option as a veteran backup to replace Taylor. Reich said this about Dalton in 2023: “The way he's throwing the football, the way he works through progressions, the way he handles the operation. … Since day one (when) he walked in the door, I'm like, 'This guy is starter-worthy.' You guys know I've said that all along. He's, in my opinion, one of the best 32 quarterbacks in the world.” ——— That’s true love lol. I never heard any of this. Pretty crazy I think, considering how the year went.   Anyway the dream is not dead. . 
    • The Seahawks traded for wide receiver/returner Rashid Shaheed at the trade deadline. He proved to be a key acquisition. Shaheed returned a punt and a kickoff for touchdowns in the regular season and had a 95-yard kickoff return in the postseason. Shaheed, though, is scheduled for free agency. So, the 12 games he played, including the postseason, might be the extent of his time in Seattle. Adam Schefter of ESPN reports that Shaheed and the Seahawks are not close to an extension, and the expectation is that the two-time Pro Bowler will hit free agency. Shaheed has 153 receptions for 2,243 yards and 12 touchdowns in his four-year career to go along with three punt return touchdowns and a kickoff return touchdown. He ranks 13th on PFT’s top-100 free agents. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/report-rashid-shaheed-appears-headed-to-free-agency
