He needs to get away from SCAR.

Oh, I know. I've pointed it out several times. Hence why the Cam comps need to stop. He ain't Cam. Cam carried that dude. It's blatantly obvious at this point.

Almost every boxscore I check always has Sellers leading SCAR in carries with virtually no production. Can the Cam comparisons please stop?

Yeah, he was abysmal as a passer at Bama. That move to OU to work with Lincoln Riley literally salvaged his NFL future. There's no doubting that man's ability to develop QB talent. He's done it over and over again. If you can't pull it off under that guy then you're just simply not it.

Yeah, I mean the Jalen Hurts who played for Bama looked like a guy who needed to be moved to RB. Hell, without Henry being there he very well might have been.

A lot of them do. I mean, they're stacking elite recruits like cordwood. If a guy isn't ready to go one of the other ones probably is. They're not gonna waste the time trying to develop the guy who needs a lot of work. Hence why Bama yanked Hurts for Tua.

I've said numerous times that if I had a son who was an elite QB recruit who's dream it was to play at UNC I'd STILL make him at least hear Lincoln Riley out. I mean, when it comes to putting QBs in the NFL I don't think any other active coach is even in the conversation. I became a true believer after seeing what he did with Jalen Hurts. Hurts looked like a guy who needed a position change at Bama and Riley turned him into a Heisman candidate and 2nd round pick. He would've honestly went in the 1st if his Bama tape didn't leave evaluators scratching their heads as to which tape was telling the truth. It was just impossible to reconcile his Bama play and his OU play.

I'm just afraid that this insane take might very well reflect the mindset inside the Panthers' organization for the exact reason he's talking about. Admitting you were wrong to trade a king's ransom to trade up to #1 overall to draft a guy who isn't working out is a bitter pill to swallow.

I've said over and over I'd LOVE to be wrong about Bryce. That's what would be the best for the Panthers. But the reality is that the best we've seen from him is mid-tier type play and even that only sporadically. How in the world are you acting like this guy has arrived while Rico Dowdle is putting up MVP numbers. It's absolutely bizarre. I've been wrong before. I'll be wrong again in the future. I'll always be happy to be wrong if it works out best for the Panthers. But Bryce is far from proving me wrong. Let's see what he does when the NFL adjusts to our newfound dominant running game.

Yep. It's not like you're leaving a ton of money on the table. Dude could hit the portal and bag millions just like Beck did. Honestly, if you're not a likely first round pick at QB you're probably better off hitting the portal and fielding bids. Guys like Quinn Ewers need to be cashing NIL checks until they run out of eligibility. They may be borderline NFL talents but that's worth millions as a college QB. I mean, a borderline NFL talent is still a pretty damn good college QB.

Yeah he's regressed. He may need to hit the portal and try to find a different situation.

Wow. I guess I was incorrect in my previous statement. It is amazing to watch someone spiking the football over a #1 overall QB being a game manager leaning on a backup RB putting up insane numbers and acting like this proves he's right about said disappointing former #1 overall pick.

I'm not projecting. I'm honestly asking why the thought of making another massive commitment to Bryce Young excites you.

Because it hasn't happened yet. Would I be shocked if it does? Nope. I mean, if that excites you good for you but I don't know why that would excite you. I don't think you're dumb enough to not realize that paying Bryce Young franchise QB money would be the absolute death knell to any hope of building a contender in the coming years.

You're not trading for a backup QB with Bryce's contract. A top pick rookie QB contract is a great deal if he's a good player. It's still a bad deal if he's a backup caliber player.

I fought sleep to stay awake just to watch that fumble on the goal line as we were going in for the go ahead score and said fug it, I'm going to bed. I've seen this movie before. I know how this ends. This bullshit of having California teams in conference with east coast teams is trash. That game probably didn't end until 2:30AM. Hell, it was 2AM at the time of the fumble and there was still 3+ minutes to play. In conference games being played into the 2AM hour for local audiences is terrible for the game. And the worst rule in football really does need fixed. Fumbling through the endzone or a fumble recovers by the D in the end zone should not result in a touch back and the ball on the 20. Fumbling through the endzone should not be a turnover. Fumbling out of bounds isn't a turnover anywhere else on the field. That should be the offense's ball on the one yard line. If the D recovers it in the endzone it should be the D's ball on the one yard line. Everyone knows this and everyone talks about it so just fix it already. If Cal was getting the ball at the goal line instead of out to the 20 I would've kept watching. That's a completely different scenario than the ball at the 20.

The people complaining about our pass protection aren't watching other games. At worse our OL is at least an average pass protecting OL. NFL pass rushers are good. This ain't Alabama where you can hang out behind an OL of future pros protecting against future Amazon warehouse workers.

Traded? Who's trading anything for Bryce?

No amount of sitting or aging is going to fix Bryce's lack of physical ability. This was the concern about Bryce. The plus side was that he was supposed to be super NFL ready. The downside was that his ceiling was relatively limited and that he might already be about as good as he's ever going to get. And now we have Panthers fans trying to pretend like he was some type of project.

The French smugness has already started to rub off on you.

I understand that UNC paid Gio Lopez but good grief he's ass cheeks. We've seen more than enough to move on from this mistake already.

I just don't understand why a blue blood would even entertain Rhule. He's never beaten good teams and that's because his teams can't score. You can't beat good teams if you can't score.

The Belichick disaster can't end soon enough. I feel like both of my college and pro teams are being absolutely held hostage right now.

Beck just can't help himself. Threw another pick. LOL

Still saying that? LOL
