Bryce Young is the first Panthers QB to throw for 20+ touchdowns in a season since Cam Newton in 2018.

It's very stark when you're bouncing around Panthers spaces online where everyone is happy and celebrating and then coming back here where a thread with a positive stat about Bryce made people angry.

The Huddle might as well be a division rival board at this point with as much as you guys hate Bryce and this team.

Pointing out Bryce Young isn't the guy is not hating on Bryce much less the team. It's just reading the signs and watching the games.

Both Bryce stans and Bryce haters resort to hyperbole so often, its tiring.

Bryce Young played a Bryce Young game. It wasn’t special. It wasn’t great. It was just Bryce. 

it was one of his best games he has ever played.  compared to a normal nfl qb it was an average game but average is the high bar for young.  b young is a 150 yd passer 1 td 1 turnover but sometimes u luck up get 2 tds and almost 200 yards with no turnovers but those days are rare.  honestly was amazed he had so many attempts and no turnovers.  its become obvious they are doing the 5th year just really hope they bring in real competition

Okay swing and miss you were a cam lover, what about the rest? 

Cam Newton had off games. His footwork and his accuracy were maddening at times. But Cam Newton in his prime was never in danger of waking up one morning and being 5'9 185 pounds.

I like most people here just want a franchise QB. I'll take whatever I can get. If Bryce somehow by miracle becomes the guy so be it I'm on board. But he isn't one morning going to wake up 5 inches taller and more muscular. He is always going to be working from a disadvantage from a physical standpoint. And as long as that exists in some capacity it is going to be more challenging to consistently win with him let alone get up and over the playoff hump. These are just realities that have to be grappled with.

Come on man you know that's not what this is.  Its a cherry picked stat intending for trolling

People can blast Evero every week, Leggette every week, defenders every week…..and it’s not hating the team.  It’s wanting to get better. 

Bulk of the Bryce “hate” is simply knowing decisions are coming and have to be made……and we want the team to have a higher ceiling and be better.

The difference in perception IMO also resides in the fact that many of these Panthers fans are more recent fans and haven't seen the best days of Delhomme and Newton. Those who have tend to be more realistic about the current trajectory. And at the end of the day this team is very up and down and has been all season. I mean this very nice and well needed win followed us being swept by the lowly Saints. Nothing wrong with glass half full or glass half empty until the team finishes the season strong and actually follows up a win with meeting or exceeding expectations the following week. That's what we are waiting to see.

That makes it even worse. There's no chance they can review each play with enough angles to give accurate grades 

Yep, you can’t grade every player on the field live.  Hell, you can’t even see every player on the broadcast.

Yeah I guess that makes sense, but how anyone who actually was around to watch Cam play is advocating for someone consistently bottom tier on every meaningful metric is beyond me. Bryce stans are basically trying to convince people Blake Bortles is Mahomes actually.

Much love to Bryce. He looked good today. As for him being our 2nd best QB, I’d hold off on that. He’s not better than Jake yet IMO

Jake?? When did Bryce pass Beuerlein?

No one’s saying Bryce is as good as Mahommes.

      2026 Charlotte Hornets

      By t96 · Posted

      Raptors blown out by Phoenix. Man this final stretch is gonna be crazy. Seeds 5-10 in the east are separated by 2.5 games… Hawks only team “hotter” than us, and I think they’re bound to come back down to earth with a pretty tough schedule to close out the season. We have some tough games too but ones that I think are very winnable, and still some very very easy games — which we have been winning consistently in 2026. Don’t think we’ve had a bad loss against a team we should beat since the Pacers in either very early January or late December

      D-Mo on FA & some of my general thoughts

      By t96 · Posted

      My general take on the state of the team not going too in depth is this: Either Morgan or Canales (hard to say whether it’s the players or the system/coaching, and that goes for any team) has been responsible for considerable strides forward on D and a bit more productive offense, but it’s been a small sample size and we collapsed at the end of the year. I lean towards it being more Canales growing as a coach and building a culture of buy-in and getting the most out of players in the locker room. My reasoning for leaning there is that Morgan was part of the Fitterer stink and it’ll take him a while of sustained success in roster management to overcome that in my mind. Next year is a big year to see if that was a fluke or not. These big signings this offseason are exciting and sometimes teams can have amazing FA classes but more often than not those who spend big and “win the offseason” don’t show the results in the regular season.    As far as QB goes, in a vacuum I’m completely fine with the Pickett signing, he’s ok value for a backup and a huge improvement over Dalton. If Bryce went down there isn’t a huge drop off there and if the rest of the team builds on last year they could win games with him under center. I’m not sure the ‘85 Bears could win games with current Dalton under center. But the O is just so damn limited with Bryce and Pickett does not push him at all, he’s purely a backup. So I agree we I’d love to see a QB with some upside drafted, a guy who could actually push Bryce if/when he struggles or doesn’t improve any further. He’s improved steadily the last 2 years but it has been from arguably worst in league history to still below average. I’m not convinced he can get any better than purely average at absolute best. I hope he can man but I just don’t see it happening. And the longer we keep penciling him as starter the less confidence I have in this staff. Even with our unexpected relative success as a team last year sometimes you do have to take another step back to take a step forward, and that could mean moving on from Bryce, and temporarily going with a slightly worse player like Pickett while aggressively trying to upgrade the position and taking dart throws in the draft/free agency on upside players. I know, there wasn’t much available this offseason outside of Willis, and this draft class seems to be poor at QB. But I’d have preferred we try something and if it didn’t work and we took a step back then just keep trying until something hits. Rolling with Bryce is just delaying the inevitable and living in purgatory.    just my 2 cents, hope I’m proved wrong
