Any rookie that isn't Cam sucks, right?

Cam never does those things, right?

Gosh I love this place.

Never said nor implied that.....last time I checked we were just talking Ponder. Never heard of a 44% completion rate, multiple turnovers, and dowen right horrible accuarcy being "impressive" before. I mean you saying that makes your prior stances on this board a bigger joke than ever before.

No Cam comparison was made.....but of course, everthing with you comes back to Cam.

Looked good in his first appearance too.

He'll get more comfortable.

He also doesn't have a legit weapon on the outside.

he looked different than what they had......and made different throws.

He didn't look good. Again, for you to claim that performance looked good and was impressive......makes your post history on this board comical.

Don't let Minny being in that game confuse things.....not sure I have seen a rookie performance that bad this year. Ponder was lucky his completion % was as high as 44%.

I'm just another new Pantherfan

back on topic TRD....

would love to hear you explain how Ponder was impressive.......despite it contradicting your stances on QB play you trolled this board with for months.

or you can just keep doing what you do....

Not sure who TRD is.

Maybe I was blinded by McNabb that when Ponder got in there he looked good to me.

Stats are largely irrelevant and I wasn't a huge Ponder fan coming out and I think it was an insane reach at 12. Maybe I didn't watch enough of the game? Maybe I don't care about other teams as much so I don't watch as closely?

He looked impressive to me. maybe I had too low expectations? This week will be able to see more.

Godspeed

Yeah right. Just like as TRD you criticized Newton who had much better stats than Ponder after each game for minute issues. Yet Ponder hit 44% of his passes and he looked impressive. What a joke.

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
