I'd half expect someone winning a fan contest to play QB for the day to outplay Bryce at this point.

There needs to be some type of slaughter rule. They might not even wait until tomorrow morning to announce Staley's firing. This is as bad as beatdowns get at the NFL level. This feels worse than UGA/TCU last year.

I completely forgot about the game tonight. But now I see that the Chargers did too. 35-0 with 3:50 to go in the first half. Yes, 35-0.

Daniels is probably going top 10.

It is when we've progressively gotten worse and his draft picks and major free agent additions look awful. I'd say it might be too soon if we were making smart moves in free agency with draft picks showing promise but if that was the case we wouldn't be the worst team in the league in his third year.

What would sitting him for the first few weeks of the season accomplished? He's a super processor. The most NFL ready QB in the draft. But he's very physically limited. He wasn't going to get bigger or develop an NFL arm. We just drafted a guy who lacks NFL physical talent. Sitting was just going to delay the inevitable.

Sadly that's absolutely insulting to The Golden Calf of Bristol. The guy went 8-6 and had six game winning drives and won a playoff game. Bryce might lose as many starts on his rookie year as The Golden Calf of Bristol had in his entire career.

Yeah, this dude ain't it. The Cowboys and Chargers were 8th and 10th in the NFL in yardage last year. Moore goes from Dallas to LA and the Cowboys bump up to 4th this year while the Chargers drop to 17th. A couple years ago this guy was a popular talking head pick as a future hotshot head coach prospect. He might be heading back to the position coach ranks after this year though.

We traded two #1 overalls, CMC, and DJ Moore for Bryce Young and DJ Johnson. This is some of the most blatant professional sports incompetence ever.

Saying that Bryce doesn't look to have NFL talent isn't "hate". I don't hate Bryce the person. He seems like a legitimately nice guy. But that doesn't make him an NFL QB. I've been one of the people on here most vocal pushing back against people mad at Bryce and his camp for "duping" the Panthers. Their job during the pre-draft process is to maximize his draft status, period. You can't get mad at Bryce and his team for the Panthers' talent evaluation incompetence.

Yeah, I'm definitely known as someone here who bites my tongue and is afraid to say what I actually think. Believe whatever you want. I don't care.

That legitimately looked like Madden just with Xs and Os instead of actual graphics. We drafted a guy in large part because he was better at video games. Lordy mercy.

Post-Halloween he's been scarily close to Pickles bad. No joke.

Because Lance and Jimmy G flat out suck. No one is saying Purdy sucks. He's just in an ideal situation.

I will pony up $8 to buy one of y'all a ticket if you'll commit to showing up in a clown suit wearing a David Tepper mask. I'll buy two of y'all tickets if the other one will show up in a clown suit wearing a Bryce Young jersey. I'll buy three of the third will show up wearing an Ickey jersey using foam pool noodles painted up to look like a turnstile.

I said it leading up to the draft. For him to generate velocity or depth in his throws he needed a practical airport runway to step into his throws. That opportunity rarely presents itself in the NFL. It was a huge concerns. Huge concerns translating to the NFL we're all over his college tape. I have no idea why so many folks missed them or simply refused to acknowledge them.

Match made in heaven. BOA fugs their customers too. https://www.npr.org/2023/07/11/1187060652/bank-of-america-250-million-illegal-fees-fake-accounts-fines#:~:text=Bank of America%2C the nation's,without customers' knowledge or permission. Ben Dover Field indeed.

It's no one's fault but Tepper and the Panthers. No one held a gun to their head. A draft prospect and their team's job leading up to the draft is to maximize their draft status.

Probably have better odds striking it rich buying scratch off tickets down at the corner store.

Hell, I was wrong about Bryce too. Despite having Richardson and Stroud as my 1a and 1b I convinced myself to be okay with Bryce if that's what our brain trust landed on. I trusted them to pick the best prospect despite my reservations about Bryce's physical talent. I mean, if they and all the professional talking heads all thought Bryce would translate them surely I have to be wrong so if Bryce is the pick I'm begrudgingly onboard despite my serious reservations which were roundly mocked on here. "LOLOLOL!!! Yeah, no one else sees this but you! What a dumbass!!!" Then preseason happened. Uh oh. This looks like what I was afraid it was gonna look like based on what I saw out of Bryce in college. "LOLOLOL!!! Serious fans know that preseason doesn't matter. Just you wait until we start game planning. Bryce gonna be carving the league up. What a dumbass!!!" Well, I sure hope so, but I'm struggling to see franchise QB talent here. Then the regular season started. He throws two awful staredown late across the middle INTs in week one. Looks bad again in week two. Doesn't play in week three after a phantom ankle injury no one saw in live action and Andy Dalton plays way better. Uh oh. Bryce comes back in week four and still looks like Bryce. UH OH. Then post-Halloween happens when Bryce has been the worst QB in the league during the second half of the NFL season. Now I'm struggling to see NFL roster caliber QB talent. But I'm the dumbass. Hell, I wish I had been because this fuging sucks. I'd be a lot happier eating delicious crow watching a franchise QB that I was wrong about.

I don't think anyone can really crack down on Tepper's golden child. Bryce is fine. It's everyone and everything else about the Panthers that's the problem. Tepper and like six fans truly whole heatedly believe that.

This is absolutely impossible to ignore. All across the league we've watched backups and third stringers come in and look hands down better than Bryce, even on bad teams. But the cope brigade never runs out of excuses.

It really just depends. Find the right coach/QB combo and things can turn around FAST. Just look at Houston now vs. a year ago.

There's nothing strange about it. The red flags on his arm talent were all over his college game tape of you were evaluating him as an NFL prospect. Y'all called me an idiot all off-season for questioning his physical talent.

People keep trying to do mental gymnastics but the reality is that a lot of our offensive struggles boil down to Bryce sucks.
