As you attempt to lose people in your lengthy posting….remember your initial disagreement was our RBs aren’t better.  And that’s a reference to our skills position players in the backfield.  We are just flat out better there.  And you are for some reason trying to manifest Rico into this injured player while trying to elevate a clearly down Kamara via some hot tub machine 

point remains, ask legit NFL fans if they would rather have the Panthers backfield in 2025 or the Saints.  It’s easily Carolina.  As most NFL fans arent playing gymnastics to try paint Bryce in a worse position than Shough.   

one team has a good rushing attack and on has weak rushing attack.   You can type 8,000 words and it won’t change that. 

If you say so 😄

Kamara isn't good this year. He isn't averaging even 4 ypc. 

Dante Pettis has one reception this year.

TMac has more yards. More TDs. higher YPA. More YAc than Olave. 

The Saints didn't get off to a good start this year (neither did we) but they're "peaking" at a good time to at least play spoiler.

Of course, it could be argued so are we.

(I'd feel a lot better saying that if we win this Sunday, though)

For now at least, the Saints are the only team in the division with a win over every other team. We have a chance to match that by season's end, and we'll need to if we really wanna make the playoffs.

As to the players:

I'd still say it's a little early to put Hubbard or Dowdle individually on a higher plane than Kamara (heaven knows i want them to be). Equal.isnt bad though.

As a two pronged attack, hell yeah... but when are we gonna see that? 😕

Similar issue with Coker but he's getting back up to speed. Sure couldda used him in some earlier games.

Mind you, I compare Coker to Pettis based on their depth chart positions, but realistically Coker ought to be our #2.

(don't think too many would dispute that spot on our chart is basically a gaping black hole at the moment)

And of course, McMillan. Over the last few games he's had some drops and things that made me wonder if the proverbial rookie wall was hitting. The good news there though is that if it is, our bye week hit at just the right time.

The OL..yeah 😕

Now all that said, if everyone gets healthy and we smooth out a couple of rough spots, this time next year it's quite possibly a very different conversation.

(one that'll make me, you and a lot of others here feel much more optimistic) 😁

      This Bryce Guy (General BY Discussion)

      Also, just for clarity, is this thread meant for general discussion of Bryce Young, or discussion of General Bryce Young?

      The word I feel most comfortable using as a descriptor is "inconsistent". Haven't really seen anyone disagree with that. Consistency being one of the things I value most in a player, that makes me lean toward moving on. But he does still have both time and opportunity to prove otherwise. Mind you, having a streaky quarterback isn't exactly a new thing in Charlotte (you could argue it's been the norm). Delhomme was notorious for starting slow but finishing strong. He could sadly also find hos way into ruts that were difficult to crawl out of. Newton, on the other hand, was often known to start hot but fade late (the vast majority of the 2015 season followed that pattern) though it could be argued that was a team pattern as much as it was Cam's.  There are definitely some fans for whom this is always going to be a bridge too far. (or too short) Realistically, it's not impossible that he could still have a good career even with those issues. It's a damn sight more difficult, though. And arguably, less likely.

      Oh, I did, and they weren't based in emotions either. Granted, characterizing them that way gives you an easy out to avoid responding to them. Similar tactic to dismissing the other guy's points with "nah, you didn't really watch the games" which saves you having to debate what he said. Strikes me as a kinda lazy way to go, but hey both elements are still back there if you feel up to trying later.
