Just so everyone is clear. Regardless of where you may fall in the conversation. It has always been this way with every Panthers starting QB. And it will continue on with the one after and the one after that. Some of it is just the nature of the internet. Some of it is due to the fact that we have generally had such small windows of actual franchise QB level play as a sports team so as the years go on it just becomes more and more contentious. Still. The majority of people here engaging want the same goal. To win a Super Bowl. Everything in between will eventually result in endless pissing matches. That's sports fandom. It just is what it is. Anyone that is overwhelmed by that is encouraged to unplug for the sake of their own sanity and those around them. /PSA.

Practice what you preach.

"We actually need more team propagandists in the media" The last thing the decision makers of this franchise need is more people heaping unearned praise onto them 24/7. That's how you end up being irrelevant for a decade. Which we just did. How about let these folks actually prove any level of consistency.

Ladies and gentlemen. Bryce Young's "ceiling".

The Hornets finally got a solid showing from the combo of the big three and blew out the Lakers in LA. Can't stand those MFers. That is a sight to behold. If they can ever find their footing in the consistency department maybe there is hope for the future.

Panthers twitter in general is catered to people who are complete homers who likely never experienced the best years of this franchise. People with business relationships to the team are going to follow that model. If that's not someone's cup of tea it's best to seek other sources.

At this point as fans I think we have to put any trade scenarios out of the realm of possibility. I feel like the only way we move on is a release and that is only contingent on him having a truly dreadful season. Unfortunately my gut tells me we are staring down the barrel of a long term extension so long as he has a marginally decent season. That's how far we've lowered the bar.

The 5th year option is $26.5 million fully guaranteed.

Well we better get used to this because Bryce just got a lot more expensive so we aren't going to be able to surround him with elite players who are perfect at all times and never make mistakes.

Guys it's a real priority to maintain continuity for the 27th passing offense.

Someone has already circulated the zoomed in picture and the ball is at his knees. I would have liked Horn to haul in that pass just as much as anyone else. But the throw absolutely could have been better. I'll never agree with anyone that says there was nothing wrong with the throw. The lack of consistent ball placement has been a point of contention here and for good reason. Regardless. I don't necessarily fault Horn here because as I said in previous posts he never should have been in that position. Whether it's Canales or Bryce that drive was unacceptable. We had 3 timeouts a decent amount of time to try and get in field goal range and we failed in pitiful fashion. Unacceptable.

Yay? I'm still waiting on someone to tell me what Brad Idzik actually does.

I think most people recognize that he is very talented and want him to pan out. He isn't a distraction or an asshat but he still does things he did as a rookie at times and there are also instances where you wonder if he wants to win a championship or just live the NBA life. Staying healthy is the key above all else though. Availability at this point is all that matters. That's still not looking good. Also as an aside I really don't like comparisons to Cam Newton in this instance because Cam Newton already was a confirmed winner when he came to Carolina and you never questioned his goal of that as a competitor. Truthfully LaMelo Ball and his brothers whether anyone likes it or not have never won anything of note and have largely looked like guys that just want the money and fame.

Shīt happens. Extent Yoshi and draft another tackle. We can't make panic moves over it when we already have the highest amount of salary cap in the league dedicated to the OL. We need more pieces on defense bad. Bryce Young is about to get the 5th year option. He's going to have to begin getting used to us having to make sacrifices.
