Bryce Young is the worst QB in Panthers History

Bryce led one touchdown drive at the very beginning of the game then we proceeded to absolutely get the doors blown off by NE. 8 drives of zero points.

I've legitimately never seen this kind of rationalizing of a blowout loss for any other Panthers QB. Honestly embarrassing.

They couldn’t the run going and he was trying to do too much.

Bryce did not have a good game. 

Giving up a punt return for a TD, missing a 55 yard FG and  giving them a short field, giving up a 61 yard punt return to our own 14 yard line.  

We crossed their 50 yard line numerous times after the first drive.

We scored on the opening drive.
Held them to 3 and out.
Went from our 23 to their 45, punted.
NE return for a TD.
Went from our 40 to their 40, punted.
NE tore through us for 80 yards in 6 plays to score a TD.
Went from our 12 to their 37.  Missed FG.
NE takes a short field and scores again.
Start on our 18. 5yd penality on us. 0 yd run, Incomplete deep pass.  2 yd run.  Punt.
NE returns the punt to our 14 and score again.
Then open the 2nd half and score again.
We start on our on 6 and drive it to their 35 where we go for it on 4th, don't get it and turn it over on downs.
It was really over by this point.

Field position / special teams were the difference in this game.  We had more rushing yards, overall yards, 1st downs and time of possession in our favor by 10 minutes.  NE had had some great playcalling keeping us off balance.  There were the better team on all 3 sides of the ball that day.  Maye had an elite game but only had to pass the ball 17 times.  No turnovers by either side.

This wasn't a game to showcase how good or bad Bryce Young was at the time.

Neat little trick of Dave Canales offense is instead of interceptions bryce just turns the ball over on downs and there isn’t an individual stat for that. 

We were 2nd in the league this year going for on 4th down 40 times.  We were successful 67.6 % of the time, 4th best in the league.

I like that trick.

So 13 turnovers on downs? And how many of those were they just trying to pick up 2-3 yards? 

it’s an interesting quirk of Canales philosophy and I’m not sure what to make of it yet. I don’t think it’s sustainable. Without looking I’m guessing the team ahead of us is the eagles or bills.

id like it a lot more if it didn’t feel they called it because they’re not comfortable all game passing past the sticks on 3rd and 7.

It's not just Canales.   With analytics and the current kickoff rules there's much more incentive to go for it.

The team ahead of us with 41 is the Jets but they were only successful 43.9% of the time.  Bills tried it 32 times with a 59% conversion rate.  Eagles only 21 times with a 52.4% conversion rate.

    • For starters, and again I am not sure what his capacity is in the media or how connected he is to the team, but I posted above Al Wallace says he is "absolutely" getting 50+ a year and he deserves it.  I obviously strongly disagree with it but it feels like like season when the team is slow leaking info to gauge the temp.   Secondly nobody on Gods green earth is going to sign an extension making less than he is making now.  Thats just crazy talk.  
    • No. Physical tools alone aren't enough. There are plenty of examples of draft busts to support that. Aost all of them had the physical tools and that wasn't enough. But Bryce is a perfect example of the opposite. Absolutely elite intangibles aren't enough either. If you simply don't have the physical abilities all the football intelligence and work ethic in the world won't be enough to overcome it. Just look to the sidelines every Sunday. We call those people "coaches".
    • As much as I despise Billy B, his philosophy on QBs is how I would approach things if I were a GM. You always keep looking for your next starter.  He has Bledsoe, who got injured and his backup ended up being the GOAT. Even while he had that going, he kept getting his next guy and developing them. When Brady got hurt, Cassel stepped in and went 11-5 and they missed the wild card by dumb luck. Who knows how far they would have gone if they had gotten in. Jimmy Gs career started in NE. There were others, but he always kept looking.  You can't be afraid to keep looking for your next starter, but it looks like we're afraid to look for more than a marginal one. If you're going to offer a $25m contract with incentives, that screams marginal QB. It also screams you're just a transition until we find our guy. After a 10 or 11 win season, he's not accepting that offer. And then you're in a Daniel Jones situation. Do you pay for a year of success and pray it wasn't a one year wonder?  To this point, Bryce has really produced nothing, yet for whatever reason, our FO has not even sniffed at the idea that we need a real QB room with real QBs. Dalton was never starter potential, Plummer was a joke. KP certainly isn't, neither is Grier.  Our approach to the QB room needs to be one of strength not fear. Bring in guys who can compete or who you think can compete. This is THE elite position, in an elite sport, paid premium salary, where production matters. Either you produce or you can lose your job. It's not mean, it's just the reality of the position.  And I'm really just tired of our candy ass approach to it.
