Positive takes so far

I noticed a lot of doom and gloom threads/comments so far this season. You have a right to be upset. I would like to remind you that this is only the 2nd week of our schedule. Let's look at a few things:

 

-We are in the games up until the end. (does it make the loss sting less? No I understand that). If we eliminate a few mistakes, we are 2-0.

 

-We have only loss one NFC game. A loss is a loss but on the grand scale of things, there are NFC teams who are already 0-2 in conference games. We have a string of NFC games coming up, if we get on a roll, who knows.

 

-Cam's play hasn't been all that great up until now. He is been servicable for us to win games but unfortunately, we wasn't able to close out games. I say once we unleash him and stop trying to force me into beind one dimensional, we will see more Offense. Will he make mistakes? Sure, but I rather see him playing like his self than what I have been seeing.

 

-The bye is early. We definitely need this to get guys healthy and fill some gaps if needed by. We can regroup and then try to get hot. It can happen.

 

-Chance to showcase guys who haven't played. Being that Godrey is out, etc. We got a chance to look at new guys. New guys are normally the ones wanted to prove themselves. So hopefully they come out hard and ready to prove they should be a starter.

 

In the end, it is still early. I was just trying to find some positives. I have seen people give up on the year already. I'm sticking on for the ride. We are not out of things. This is just the beginning. A lot of teams are 0-2. Sunday let's see can we put it all together. I ready to see my boys get revenge on the Giants from last year. I absolutely think we will win this game. Let's go panthers!

 

PS: feel free to add in positives I may have skipped

The bye is an interesting positive because it was taken as a negative by many on here when the schedule was first released last year.

 

I think it's in the perfect spot for us now. We can either use it to fire Rivera and get the interm up and running or use it for added time to get everybody healthy. It also gives us an extra week to bring in a few players.

 

I know none of the above is going to happen, but it's interesting to think about if we somehow beat the Giants.

Smitty is as good at evaluating a team as he is other players.

the Carolina panthers are the rhyne Robinson of the NFL. Steve thinks both are good

      Malik Willis anyone

      I must apologize, my sarcasm at times doesnt translate well in text form lol. At this point I would welcome us signing him, Trey Lance, trading for Jameis Winston, asking about Deshaun Watson and playing phone tag with Tom Brady before I ever fully entertain a season of Bryce Young being the defacto Starting Quarterback of the Panthers.

      Bryce is elite at deep throws

      By beckersteen · Posted

      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.
