I went to UNCA and still have many friends up there, visit frequently. Was just there in April. Haven’t heard from a single friend up there since early Friday. Makes me nervous.

I don't think they were there until training camp. Once Canales saw how limited Bryce was, he held him out of preseason which I think was a huge mistake either way, and then we saw how the first two games went. But I think Canales was hired with the intention to coach up Bryce which I don't even think Andy Reid could do.

If Dalton starts

I don’t see him on the sideline congratulating Dalton or being a part of the team. Is he just pouting? Does everyone hate him?

He seems like a good guy but not an nfl caliber player and it sucks because I called it from the beginning

Dalton was a pro bowler so I don’t think it matters either way

Jack Plummer is that kinda guy but I don’t think we want that guy starting

I mean if they had a backup worth a crap I’d say trade Bryce but I’d be surprised if Dalton can last a full season

So Bryce is garbage, who knew

Arch has squeaky clean pockets and wide open receivers. Even Bryce could hit some of these throws.

Watching UL Monroe getting curb stomped by Texas is like watching the Panthers against all other NFL teams.

Maybe he will make a better coach than player because he’s impressed everywhere but on the field on game day.

Yea the lord took your tiny ass off the field so you didn’t die.

Kuechly will get in, Kalil might take awhile

Oh and refuse to lightly caress Nicole Tepper’s back during a hug. The cuck owner will explode.

I’m looking around for people who care that he is pissed

How doesn’t he pass the eye test? And you’re saying because he had a good supporting cast that’s a detriment? CJ Stroud had Marvin Harrison Jr but he went balls out in the NFL. Ewers has one legit knock, he gets hurt. But he can play when he’s on the field. He’s a winner.

I was vocal for Stroud and posted many anti Bryce posts. The Texas v Alabama game in 2022 said it all for me. It looks exactly like the QB he is in the NFL

If anything the bashing should be why wasn’t he benched last season?

That’s the 1 billion dollar question. Literally

So the hate on him is that he is doing it too late? Well I agree, but the man has to learn sometime. We’re stuck with him. The whole point of my post is maybe, finally, he’s becoming humbled and that might bode well for our future.

Look guys, I’m as big of a Tepper hater as you can find in the Panthers faithful. But the hate is truly getting out of control if he’s now being blamed for benching Bryce. To me it’s actually showing the accountability that Bryce was a mistake. Now of course Tepper is 100% the source of all these issues and we can bash him until the Earth spins into the sun, but bashing him for Bryce getting benched is just insane. It was the right move. Moving forward he can do a better job by not schmoozing with the potential draft picks and influencing his staff with who to pick. I’m not hopeful for the future at all but at the very least he’s been humbled by the past 6 years and maybe that will benefit us in the long term. That’s the only optimism I’ve got right now.

I will wholeheartedly disagree with everything you said. Quinn Ewers will be a good NFL QB. His only knock is his injury history. You gotta go watch the throws he can make and what he’s done under pressure. That’s the biggest thing that sets him apart. Bryce was always god awful under pressure and being blitzed in college and somehow that was overlooked coming into the NFL. Ewers doesn’t have that problem.

Man I hate that the falcons did something smart. Penix going to tear up the NFL in a year or two.

If Dalton can play the whole year which I worry about given his age, the Panthers will definitely not be the worst team in the NFL. Dalton can win 5-6 games. But at what cost? He will give a jolt to the team and maybe get a few fans to come back, but there’s no hope right now. They’ve admitted Bryce is a bust. So what now? There’s never been a lower point in franchise history.
