Puka dropped that pass but Jesus.... dude is so damn dominant and he was a 7th round pick. 

Just goes to show how draft experts don't know everything. 

Fifth round, but your general point still stands.

Why is Horn so bad? He interfered with Adams a couple plays before. Add in the past games starting with the first Saints loss, and I’m thinking he’s costing us way more and Scott looks bad due to Horn making bad decisions.

Horn has legitimately cost/almost cost us so many TDs recently.

He's struggling as of late. No way around it.

I've missed a few plays here and there running out to tie stuff down through this cyclone haha

Stay safe.

Yeah, he was absolutely getting mauled for the short period that he was playing and then he was in the injury tent for a loooooooooong time. I am very worried he reinjured that arm. We are likely going to be without Ikey all next season so we can't afford a second long term injury on that offensive line.

Some mistakes from the Rams, they might be starting to press a little bit, they have everything to lose 

And that's huge. Absolutely NOBODY is expecting the Panthers to win so we playing with house money. Rams got a lot of pressure on them being Superbowl favorites and playing an "inferior" team.

Those two scoring drives were the most NFL-esque drives I’ve seen Bryce engineer. No luck. Overcoming defensive mistakes. 
 

Only for two special teams mistakes in a row to happen. 

Exactly my same sentiment.  When I said the first TD drive was the best sequence of throws I’ve ever seen him string together in a drive, the phrase I kept thinking of was “NFL level.”  We’ve seen him lead plenty of dink and dunk, safe, pussified drives where any 35+ flag football league player could complete the required passes - but today?  He is legit slinging it, and it has been exciting to watch.

Fortunate?! It's a damn MIRACLE we are only down by 3 

Canales play calling is why the Panthers are in it.

He's trusting the players to perform the fundamentals and execute the simple plays, reads and adjustments. Bryce, Chuba and XL are failing in that grind it out game.

Canales is going to have to call a masterful 2nd half to win this. He can't trust Bryce or his players to make the right calls on the field. Tough on a HC to maneuver around players who can't carry out the fundamentals and basics. That is why the Panthers are in it. Canales play calling loosened up the Rams D and opened up that entire field for Bryce.

TMac and Coker are running those routes with precision and XL is stretching the defense deep.

Need Bryce to be able to control the offense and manage that clock while reading the defense without Canales in his ear.

    • Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
