Four million a year

This is the problem. We pay Mare $4 million a year to be the best at what he does. He hasn't made an important kick all season. My issue? The four million. This falls on MARTY BUM HURNEY!!! That extra four million could've gone to a defensive tackle that would help seal up the line. Million a year for a kicker is even questionable. Janikoswki was a first round pick. What's he getting? Mare has two blocked field goals and has missed more meaningful field goals then one that weren't. Blame other people, but "IT IS WHAT IT IS" and we were in that situation. WE PAY THIS WASHED UP DOLPHIN KICKER $4 MILLION PER YEAR TO BE THAT GUY GO GET US OUT OF THAT SITUATION. A kicker is very much like a closer in baseball. There's great ones, automatic ones, a lot like kickers. Your offense puts you in a position to win in baseball, and your closer blows a save, that's on your closer. What's done is done, if Rivera didn't think he could do it, we would've gone for it on 4th and 2, which I thought we should have anyways. I knew when Rivera elected to go for the tie he was going to miss the field goal. I have no confidence in Olindo Mare, and I want John Kasay back. Yeah Kasay can't hit 50+, but that doesn't come up often enough to make a difference.

Excuse me for venting hours later. I wanted some other opinions on this. thx guys. The Panthers will continue to find every which way possible to lose this year. Next game it'll be a safety and a reverse punt. Season's officially over.

Oh you didn't get the memo? Season was over when we put 10 players on IR.

      Bryce is elite at deep throws

      We had a QB who could do that and its the last time we went to the Super Bowl and the only time we had an MVP. Once he lost his ability to do that he was out of the league. To filter out insignificant stats I will only look at QBs who have played in 10 or more games this year. There are 28 qualifying QBs. Bryce is 25th in Air Yards per Attempt at 6.4. Only Joe Flacco, Cam Ward, and Dillon Gabriel are worse (6.0, 5.8, 5.1). Trevor Lawrence, Patrick Mahomes, and CJ Stroud are the median QBs at 7.1. Drake Maye and Sam Darnold lead the league at 8.7. Bryce is 18th in the league for passes that travel 30+ yards at 12. The median is Caleb Williams at 15. The league leader is Matthew Stafford with 26. With passes that travel 40+ yards, Bryce is tied with three others at 21st in the league with 3. Only Jacoby Brissett, Cam Ward, Joe Flacco, and Dillon Gabriel are worse. The median is a three-way tie with Drake Maye, Trevor Lawrence, and Baker Mayfield with 6. The league leader is Sam Darnold with 12. Having the ability to complete passes down the field (not YAC) stretches the defense and makes them account for more ground. It keeps players out of the box and keeps formations in nickel or dime, less line backers for your RBs to worry about. Bryce is why we have 2 losses against the Saints. If he had the outright ability to sling the football down field we beat the easily, but he doesn't. So they crowded the box and our 2 starting caliber RBs with our top ~10 Oline couldn't carry the offense to a win on their own. The limitations of the offense fall squarely on Bryce.

      Bryce’s deep passes are intermediate passes for other strong armed QBs. I will say that Bryce’s accuracy on his deep passes have improved. Before they would just sail out of bounds. Now the WR actually has a fighting chance on the ball.
