Also an article saying D-Will is on the way out on there but it wasn't worth posting.

I would think Archie knows a bit about what it takes to be a successful quarterback in the league. Shows that many of those folks throwing stones at him particularly his work ethic, don't know much of anything.

I read that article a few hours ago... It really wasn't worth posting IMO. Didn't really say anything we don't already know other than he got another award.

I agree, but I also assume that at this point at least a few others would be as desperate for Panthers related news as I am. :(

This is all Manning said

"He's got great size. He's got everything you want," Manning said. "He had one of the most phenomenal senior years. That doesn't mean anything except that he's got the talent. The main thing is somebody's got to want to be good and work at it, and he seems to have a really great work ethic. There's no reason he won't be an outstanding player.

"It may not happen in year one. You don't know when it's going to happen. A lot of times, when you get picked first in the draft, you're going to a team that's not too good."

    • And that makes you right. 
    • Mel Kiper said he would retire if Jimmy Clausen wasn't a successful NFL starter too. Just because the experts make a claim doesnt mean it's true either.  Bryce may be a serviceable QB for someone. Serviceable QBs don't bring you a perennial winner or lead you to the playoffs over and over. Serviceable QBs also dont get 50m plus per year deals which is what a Bryce extension would look like.  The stats show he hasn't been even a serviceable QB in the 3 years he's been here. The eye test shows he hasn't put together 2 franchise QB salary games back to back in 3 years.  Complain all you want about people being negative, but people pointing out that Bryce is held to a different standard than anyone else on the team isn't complaining. It's stating the obvious. 
    • We have big bodied WRs and 3 TEs who all have potential and each bring something different to the table. I never saw the need to go out there and try and find a new starting TE.  While it's nice to have a guy like McBride, Bowers, etc, I think a team's better use of the cap is by having TEs on rookie contracts or cheap vets, not having to pay elite TE money.
