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.

      So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre.

      Reasonable. I mean I didn’t see a clear path to relief this season myself. As I have typed already, I think the QB FA class is more interesting next season and that draft is supposed to be stacked as well. There just weren’t many options this year.  When you have Tepper to contend with you have to tread lightly around this unless you are 100% certain and willIng to stake your job on it.   There were a couple of outings that helped Bryce a lot in terms of  thinking maybe he can do this, and if you are a supporter you are giving them a lot of weight. You are likely to think just get him some more help and he can do that every week. Which I think Tepper falls into that category.  And the playoffs, division champs, regardless of the way I see that, the supporters will also give that a lot of weight.    And the big one, the atmosphere In BOA for that WC game, Tepper had to be soiling himself over that. If you pulled Bryce out right now you had better be right and your new guy had better make the playoffs and look good doing it or you will be gone and your chance to build your old team back into respectability will be gone too.  So here we have Pickett on a one year deal, and Grier and King. I understand it.
