He's the swing tackle. Canales mentioned wanting him to stick to one position, so it sounds like they're keeping him at tackle.

Look at how happy the team is for him! My heart

XL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Uh oh

Way too early to be hopeful but not too early to be doubtful?

No doubt. Dude can spin it and is having a great season so far with the Hurricanes.

Back in January, Brugler said folks had a 5th round grade on him but could go a round or two higher due to upside I'm all for throwing a day 3 pick at one of the QBs in this class, especially Ward if he's somehow still there.

My favorite free agent acquisition this offseason by far! And he's got my favorite highlight of the season up until this point... ejecting Spillane out of the club: https://www.instagram.com/panthers/reel/DATke3hRdJn/?hl=en

Former Temple/Panther TE Colin Thompson now has his own media company and is joining the long list of athlete podcasts. They posted a clip about the Tepper drink throwing incident and JJ repeats what was heard early on: that the Jags fans were yelling up into the box while Marquis Haynes was down with a scary looking injury.

Eku Leota also released from the PS

Totally agree on both of those points. At the very least, they should have been more willing to sit him sooner seeing how much more competent Dalton looked. After the high school cafeteria drama we heard with last year's staff though I'm surprised that guys made it through the season without setting the locker room on fire.

I'd argue that there were a LOT more moments of the team around him being bad. I don't think there is any valid debate to that given the metrics we have seen regarding pressure, separation, etc. Common sense alone shows that the offensive-side of the roster has been upgraded (6th/7th string starting guards to top 5 + starting calibre, add Diontae + XL). Dalton went out there and lost against Seattle with the same bad team that Bryce was only able to limp to 2 wins with. This roster though? I can't take any talking head seriously that acts like it's the same offense that got marched out last year. That's just a lazy attempt by some of these sports media folks at getting outrage engagement.

It's crazy to me how folks can watch last season and blame it on Bryce but then watch the first two games from this season and NOT blame him. The difference in the OL and the weapons alone were massive upgrades. Going from a 6th string guard to a top 5 one? Upgrading the 7th string guard to a starting NFL guard? Huuuuuge. Plus this year's DJ has shown he can separate unlike last season's DJ. That's not even getting into coaching. Glad that the team finally sat him. QBs have been boned pretty bad development-wise by teams trying to drop a newbie into the most important position in football so that they can "use the money elsewhere" (which rarely seems to be spent correctly). Gotta win on the field, not the balance sheet. Letting Bryce sit and absorb from the sideline is not only better for him but the team as well. If the team gets eliminated from postseason contention they'll probably put Bryce in to see if the reset has helped at all. Still pulling for the kid! Sucks that he got beat up so bad last season and is clearly still rattled from it, but Clowney also overheard Bryce telling Dalton that whatever Andy needs he's going to be it for him. While his play has lost him favor, guys will notice and appreciate his professionalism (even if fans won't).

Was just there during the week! Had to fly out Thursday for a wedding party this weekend tho. Gratz on the winnings!!

Peevy's sack celebration is amazing lmfaoooooooooo

Canales: "Hey Andy Dalton lemme whisper in ya ear. "

It felt good to lead a game again. More pls!

Omg an opening drive TD

Thank goodness for whoever did it. While the play calling has been off at times (which is to be expected given that it's Canales' second season calling plays in the league), the team around Bryce has been performing. The OL has been protecting and guys have been getting open. It's been 100% on Bryce these last two games and there's no reason to make other guys waste their season while he sputters. I hate it for him, especially given how bad everything else was around him last season making it damn near impossible to evaluate. This season though through these first two games it has been all on him. Gotta think that if/when the team is mathematically eliminated from the playoffs that they'll stick him back in to see how he responds on the field. A looot of QBs in this draft class to throw a 3rd or 4th round pick at and come compete.

I've got 3hrs until I've got to be on site and was going to kill time by watching the Panthers-Chargers game that I missed on Sunday while traveling... but I don't want to have to watch videos of dogs being reunited with their owners to reverse any emotional damage sustained. Think I'll check out some of the other Saturday games instead... only got to watch SCvLSU + WVUvPitt since I had to get rdy for Sunday.

All he had to do today was look just a tiny bit better, but to get even worse? I mean... I'm as big of a homer as they come but even I can't defend that.

Trading for a king's ransom and/or taking a top pass rusher!

He got a pass for last year. For today though? There's no excuse. He looked downright incompetent and to be what held the offense back.
