I could also just be a frustrated fan who doesn't really know what is really going on but here is my take.

Bryce could be a bust.  Bryce could be building up his knowledge and will break out in 2-3 games from now.  Play calling could be the problem.  Receivers not getting open could be the problem.  Too many cooks in the kitchen could be the problem.  

Personally, I think it's a little bit of everything but something that not a lot of people talk about is how much and i mean really how much of everything is completely new. 

New staff many of whom have not worked together before.

New scheme combining a bunch of different stuff.  

New offense.  Icky, Bozeman and Moton.  Those are the 3 starters playing for us right now that started for us last year.  That's it.  

This whole thing is going to take some time.  To figure out what works, for players to gel, for the team to gel.  Yes, we suck right now but there are a multitude of reasons outside of the coaches forgot how to coach, Young is a bust, Fitt is the worst GM and Tepper is the next coming of Jerry Jones.

And I love all the Told you so people coming out of the wood works.  If it was possible to tell who would be great and who would be a bust the NFL would look a lot different.  

What is the breakdown on where J. Chinn lined up.  Formations, responsibility, etc...from what you can make out.  I read he played 21 snaps in the box and 10 in the slot.  Is he blitzing, being a 3rd LB'ers, covering, etc...

Looked like a team with new players, coaches, schemes and a rookie QB.

I would have loved less mistakes, better players at skill positions and rookies who already had a few years of pro experience but alas that isn't how it works. 

If this is the average look of the Panthers in year 3, then I'll start calling for jobs and giving hot takes after every snap.

Some great play design.

Run keeping ATL honest.  Bryce looking legit.  Oline legit.

Screw all ya'll armchair non-believers!

Already getting Huddle whiplash.

Hats off to Corral for not quitting the team after having to play behind that very offensive line.

I kept waiting for him to throw a tantrum. 

Impressed that Bryce gave a pep talk and friendly pat to Icky after almost getting killed by the rushers her wiffed on.  I swear I think the first hit knocked Bryce cross eyeed and the 2nd hit knocked them back to normal.

Still think we really need a backup RB.

I just saw on the ESPN ticker that he got up 4 times after being hit.  Good stats.

Took a quarter of football to remind me of why 90% of fans are idiots.

I really wanna see how the defense lines up although since it is preseason I'm not sure if we will even see anything like what we'll see in the regular season.

Really curious where and how they use Chinn.

Wanna see if Corral is worth a bag of nickels.

I'm still nervous about depth at RB and wanna see what the backup look like.

And I guess Bryce.

He's no Eric Shelton.

Steve Smith on his podcast talked about about how badly Rhule used Brown.   That he was putting a round peg into a square hole.  Brown was asked to lose weight and play different techniques than his bread and butter.

The double negative is what finally took him off my draft board.

In a shocking twist it turns out he's talking about Bryce Young.  That 98 out there is a total lie.  Young really scored a 187 out of 99.

If we trade down...

we riot.

5 hours ago, Mr. Scot said:

I like Bailey sometimes but I vividly remember him heavily defending Matt Rhule.

That put me off a lot.

Was there something wrong with Matt Rhule?

I was leaning way toward Stroud for a long time but the more time went one the more even they became and in the last week a few things have put me solid on the Young side.

CJ had elite linemen and receivers.  I've watched Young have elite receivers and ok line to no receivers and a horrible oline.  Young has excelled in every type of way the game and team have came at him.  CJ was always surrounded by elite team mates.  One great Georgia game isn't enough for me although I do see a great upside if he was our pick.

Regardless of size I've seen Young do CJ things from a clean pocket.  I have not seen Young do barely any of Young's magic when the protection breaks down.

The 49ers have shown you can't have enough quality QB's on your roster.  I'd rather keep him then trade him as he's on a rookie deal and we've seen late round QB's end up better than 1st rounders many times before. 

Carolina likes throws darts to see if they can hit the bullseye.  Why not wait to see where the Corral dart ended up hitting.
