His anticipation is the reason that route running needs to be the #1 factor in choosing receivers. Not height, weight, and 40 time. Thielen has slowed down greatly and he is still our #1 guy because he can run routes and is where Bryce anticipated him to be. Now imagine we had some quick explosive guys who could run those routes precisely instead of just Thielen.

It definitely needs a lot of love. I have constantly problems on mobile. Way more than any other site I ever visit.

Yea they could give him a 2 year extension or so and save around 12m and let him retire a panther.

I agree in theory, I will just never care for his scheme, play calling, or adjustments. I will always prefer an aggressive defense over a bend but don't break and Evero will always be bend but don't break style play calling no matter who his personnel is.

Dalton played what, 2 games? That's not enough data points to come to your conclusion. Again, your opinion is skewing the metrics. There are metrics for receiver separation in one of those images and the Panthers are clearly below average in separation.

Yea one of the biggest reason people think you need to be a big body receiver to play outside is getting off of press but there are plenty of little guys that can get off press. A lot of the best receivers in the league are definitely 6' or less. Prioritizing height and weight with receivers is an old school mentality imo

I agree with everything but the game manager part. The opposing team ran against us constantly which offered less possessions and plays, which has an impact on putting up gaudy stats. If you look at it though Young had some of the most "big time throws" of all qbs last year. That's not a game manager stat. I think if you're not a running qb and you can't throw 75 yards then some fans are going to put you down as a game manager.

You are reading this wrong to make it say what you want it to say. You are saying because the qb threw in to a tight window then that means they made the wrong read or there was a wide open receiver somewhere and that isn't in the data at all. That's you making a blank and filling it with your opinion. Our receivers are below average at separation. There is a good chance a tight window could still be the best or only possible throw to make.

There are plenty of outside wide receivers in the modern NFL who aren't big body possession type guys.

My scores are reversed. I feel like Morgan bombed on the draft. We had some players contribute but it was because the team had no talent. On a decent team none of these guys would have played probably.

His scheme is entirely designed around making a decent overall defense with not great players. It's a safe bend but don't break scheme. I think if he had an elite talented defense it would be the same it would just underperform instead of overperforming with bad players. I have no idea you would rebuild a defense getting players to build around that scheme.

I just hate his scheme and lack of adjustments

The sad thing is it was a drop. Watch it again. It didn't get deflected, it hit him in the hands untouched.

On 10 more attempts and an extra possession. With 50% completion percentage. He's looked fine, good and bad. I don't see what (conveniently the Bryce haters) are drooling over. He has made a couple really good throws and a couple bad throws. He's also a year older than Bryce.

I believe they were amused by the coverage. They got their #1 wr 1v1 vs a practice squad cb on back to back plays. Evero really is something.

And a rushing td

Says a lot about coaching. We have absolutely nothing to play for but being spoilers and the Panthers have much more energy and effort out there.

No one cares besides the people who are obsessed with commenting negative things about the qb regardless of what's happening at the time.

I just don't see it. I think he is a good wr and a good cb. I don't think he's elite at either. If he didn't play both ways I don't think he would be the first cb or wr taken.

I think we put way too much stock in things people say in interviews that they gain nothing by saying and basically have no other answer they could even give right now regardless.

I never said the offensive line wasn't much improved. You didn't even mention tight ends. It's ok to admit we have a bottom tier set of receivers and still go on your anti Bryce crusade. Both things can be true.

So you can name one team that might be worse?

Meh wr? Thielen is our #1 wr and who is our #1 te? That's a good bit below meh

He was put in a bad situation and he should have been allowed to interview elsewhere. That said, he did pick out a lot of his guys to bring in, a lot of players don't seem to like playing in his system, and I personally just hate his scheme in general. Both things can be true, he was put in a crappy situation, and he didn't do a very good job also.

That's the thing, there is no reason to make that decision now because they don't have to consider 5th year option right now.
