will be a good player for the Carolina Panthers?

I am very very confused by everyone thinking that the DT position problem was fixed when we brought him in. Not to mention that it will be better next year with him back, as he will only be 33 years old at seasons start???

Maybe someone can help me out on this one.

He was good against the Run in KC. He would not have been a pro bowl type of DT. but he would have been an experienced Vet, that we knew was able to stop the run. If you remember we were somewhat bad at stopping the run last year as well. So we brought in a guy to be that NT and take up doubles and takle RBS. Then we drafted Fua to be rotated in with him, and Maclain to be the pass rush DT. I think that the plan was to shore up the run stuffing DT by adding a guy that was proven in the NFL, at doing that. Nobody thought he was going to be Suh. But hew could have been a small step up from what we had in Kemo when he was 1st brought in. Not spectacular but not a pushover either. That doesnt mean we cant or shouldnt upgrade, but if you want an upgrade you would need to draft one, in the 1st as they dont grow on trees. Most people that say we might not need to take a DT next year are not saying its not possible to upgrade the DT spot, but instead think that there are other needs that we might want to use out 1st and second on.

Did you actually watch game file on him in KC? Or are you just pulling poo out of your ass?

Did I watch a lot of KC games last year? Yes. And I really don't see what everyone is so giddy about as if the dt is automatically fixed when he comes back.

      Bryce's Achilles Heel Is Not What You Think It Is

      Watching those throws Drake Maye was making on a dead run threading lasers into tight coverage on the sidelines over and over in that game against the Bills... these people need to go watch that and be honest with themselves.

      why rig the scenario with the "as a passer" tag.   I mean, I assume you do that because Bryce needs help in the argument.  If we are just talking players and no contacts?   I mean, give me Young over Russell Wilson.   That's it.   I'd put him on par w/ Penix, Fields, McCarthy and Rattler,  so that's a wash.  Give me everyone else over Bryce.  And I'm not handicapping the other players as passing only because when you start doing that it's really meaningless.

      McCarthy to date, for sure. That's a very early sample size, however. Russell Wilson is a backup. Not sure Wilson wouldn't be better suited to our offense specifically, but at the bare minimum it's basically a wash. Hurts I would generally disagree with. I do think Hurts is likely to be less than stellar in our offense. Justin Fields - Agree. Fields is a significant threat on the ground but he sees the field as badly or worse than Bryce. And that's with significantly more reps. Spencer Rattler - I honestly thought this would be an easier call that it is. TBH, right now Rattler looks a lot better. Really almost across the board. Kyler - Murray is better. Basically across the board. Not significantly better, mind you. Trevor Lawrence is more debatable than it seems. Low completion percentages, tons of TO's.....he really has been quite bad this year in Jax. He is considerably more talented than Bryce but the results have been marginally better. Tua - Tua is a little more dynamic of a player but he is a TO machine. Tend to agree. Caleb Williams. Not sure on this. Williams is still struggling to be consistent but his upper end is WAY higher than Bryce. He shows it fairlu frequently, as well. Probably would rather be working through Caleb's issues than Bryce. Penix - 100%. This guy stinks. Cam Ward. This is a little tough. Again, far higher ceiling on Ward and he shows flashes but it's been a mess there in Tenn. Probably lean towards Bryce here.
