October 30, 2022 DJ Moore caught an incredible 62-yard touchdown with 23 seconds left to tie the game. the rest is history

Move him to guard against Atlanta. Tag him as a guard. Save millions. Move Christensen to LT. BOOM. Salary cap magic right there. And ensuring we never sign a free agent again.

I think the disappointment in him has been offset by the excitement in Coker. Offsetting a potential mistake with our first pick with a gem undrafted FA is a wash. imagine if they both develop into solid starters

Maybe the most unexpected breakout player in panthers history. And one of the easiest people to root for. Worth every dollars of that extension already. Need more players like him

And player development may be more important than both

It won’t fix our biggest issue but pairing Will Johnson with Jaycee horn is awfully tempting…

baker I would say is borderline The panthers looked at him as generational iq player. People forget that drew brees was seen as pretty average until he paired up with Sean Peyton. He also put on some muscle mass. bryce is still young. I think his number 1 priority is finding a way to gain muscle. His instincts and accuracy are there. He looks like a kid out there still. it all goes back to my original point that he needs time to grow. His intangibles are too good for him to be this bad in my opinion. I get it if you’ve given up on him I just think that’s the entire issue with the nfl right now - teams don’t I think long term enough (and tepper is the number 1 culprit of that)

People will hate it but I think he’s already solidified as our incumbent starter next year. Seeing what geno, baker, darnold etc have done, the nfl needs to learn that development is more important than instant stats. he needs time to grow and develop. And maybe most importantly, he needs stability within the organization. mahomes sat an entire year. Jackson and Allen both started as the backup their rookie year. I wholeheartedly believe we should have started Bryce on the bench last year and the organization is most responsible for his dismal start. Not helping the matter was an atrocious offense around him. Draft a mid to late round qb for a bit or competition but most importantly, give him the same system for a second year. I think it’ll pay dividends

I don’t blame you but some of the throws he made against the chiefs are elite. And seeing he has the 4th best qbr in the nfl over the past 3 weeks. the good news is there’s plenty of season left to determine if this is a fluke or the real Bryce. By year end I think we’ll have a definitive answer one way or the other. Fortunately for us, everything may have worked out perfectly. Bryce needed to be benched. He reset and dalton got injured at the right time to give us plenty of games to analyze Bryce on. I’m optimistic for the future. Bryce has too much elite game tape to write him off this soon.

I see 4 winnable games on our schedule left. If we win two of them and Bryce continues his progress, this season is a success. low expectations? Sure. But I think we’d have enough information to know Bryce is our starting qb next year and we can enter the draft with a high pick knowing what we need to improve.

Our expectations have been so low it’s hard to know up from down currently. we’ve won 2 straight which makes you think something’s clicking. Yet Bryce’s numbers are by most standards average to subpar in those two games. did we win because of him or despite him? How much of his stats are due to drops and penalties. so many layers. Very hard to judge and glad I don’t have to make this call at the end of the year if things continue like they seem currently

Drops. Penalties on TD throws. Fumbles. we did a lot to make Bryce’s day look pretty ordinary. He still looked light years better than the first 2 weeks. all we could hope for is progress and we’re getting it.

Are we really looking past the giants… as a 2-7 team? let’s just focus on looking competent two weeks in a row

He’ll continue to get killed and deservedly so. however, in an alternate universe where we have a contending team, I imagine he’d be a great owner. Pray that one day we can see him amongst the people when the city has the same buzz as it once had.

Seems like a good mentor and teammate so maybe good to keep around for the young guys. Really no other reason to keep him
