One place a raw dude like XL isn’t going to fit at all…..is paired with a weak QB that needs QB friendly WRs. I mean, when we drafted him it was constantly talked about how he didn’t fit with Bryce. Would he maybe fit a fug it all chuck it deep O? That would be about it for XL. Let the big boy have time to run downfield and let the raw tools do what they do. we overdrafted a raw WR for the Canales O but one that would be paired with a QB who didn’t fit either. Results are as expected IMO. AT, TMac and Coker have one thing in common. All are QB friendly. Easy to see why XL trails them all. Hell if Renfrow was 6’3 he would likely be a great fit too lol. But he lacks the size to be friendly enough

Hard to pull off a 200 yard game when your QB throws the ball 10 yards downfield only twice in a game. Apples and oranges. Bryce can throw a ball negative yards downfield and be gifted a 50 yard TD on the stat sheet. Doesn’t work like that for a WR reality is, a sane team would have enough info that BY and XL shouldn’t be thought of as the future but things to replace. But you must of got drunk a got a regrettable Bryce Young tattoo or something

I’ve been talking about the Panthers and putting things that don’t fit together for so many years at this point. Fit is more than half the battle in the NFL. Yet here we are acting confused.

I’m just old enough to have zero interesting in trying to wish players good… and it’s flat out entertaining watch the gymnastics on Bryce and engaging with those who do it. most things in life aren’t complicated. I’m not. Neither is figuring out Bryce is not why any NFL team actually wants

I'm just messing around and being stupid.

Yeah, you knocked XL. I merely afforded XL the same defense Bryce Young gets. Please get out of here, ignoring that fact XL through their first 27 games in Carolina he has found the endzone more than future HOFer Steve Smith, longest TD pass in Super Bowl history (at one time) Mushin Muhammad and the forever underrated #1 in your heart DJ Moore did through their first 27 games. So why would we ever think not extending XL. also, why do you hate the Panthers and winning. Because not supporting XL is basically not supporting Carolina.

this is Bryce fan fiction. Caleb Williams is out there completing passes few could attempt. Bryce Young was literally put in a chuck it downfield short yardage play scenario w/ man coverage. Canales crafted it. We have seen it multiple times this season. It's not some Bryce Young decision or special throw. It's a downfield lob vs man. He for the first time all season finally got one to drop of the vertical one to Coker. But it's not new.

you are missing the word as a starter. as a starter, he is averaging less in 2025 than in 2024. It's a technicality as he averaged 195.75 as a starter in 2024. But less is less. Those 2 garbage time appearances when Dalton got pulled late skews his 2024 per game number down. But if you are looking for non-technicalities, he is averaging basically the exact same yards per game as starter and ypa the last 2 seasons as a starter as the difference is splitting hairs.

PJ Walker had great moments. Great moments can be found for nickel and half eaten bag of potato chips.

It's like they started on trying to work on Jimmy Horn and were like yeah, we can just run the same gadget look for him for the rest of the season. Development for year 1 is over lol. But Horn much like Renfrow doesn't fit a Canales O. The big 3 are really the dudes who should see the field.

Bryce Young had the same amount of touchdowns as he did pass attempts that went at least 10 yards downfield. 3.

Bryce is averaging less yards in 2025 than in 2024 as a starting QB. ypa attempt is virtually identical, as it's so close next Sunday can swing it under(as he has been under his average in most games this season).

Hey, why not....if Bryce Young can, then why not XL. Just watch, let me put on my Bryce Young gymnastics hat and apply it to XL. Did you know through 27 NFL games, XL has more TDs than DJ Moore, Steve Smith, and Mushin Muhammad did 27 games into their careers at Carolina? Some would say, XL is on track to be the GOAT. Which is way better than GWDs.

CRA Eye Don't Lie Stat of the Week In 2025, Bryce has been backup caliber in 9 of 12 starts. When someone tells you who they are in 2025, 2024, and 2023.....it's best you believe them and not cherry pick your way to horrific decisions.
