Bryce probably had too much on his plate being the starter, even in the offseason, but being the backup for 6 weeks, he could simply just focus on his footwork and urgency in the huddle/pocket, and he got that fixed pretty quick. That's what's remarkable about this - there's QBs that have been in the league for years and years that haven't fixed that yet. Bryce's pocket presence is already levels ahead of Darnold who has been in the league 5+ years and just went 14-3. Gives me high hopes for Bryce.

His pocket presence, ability to avoid pressure and ability to stay calm and deliver the big throw is a total 180 from his first 18 games and makes me believe he can work himself into a perennial top 10 QB Like I have no clue how he was able to fix that so quickly. There are QB's who have been in the league 5+ years and haven't figured that out (Darnold)

Honestly I'd rather Morgan pull a Hurney and take a linebacker. Walker or Jihaad Campbell. I think the line can be fixed...our linebackers were atrocious this year however. The league is trending towards the running game again and we don't have a chance if we don't have linebackers that can stop the run. Does Hurney have a job? He should consult Morgan on the 1st round pick and that pick only. Hurney was incredible at eying all-pro talent in the first, but thats about all he could do

I think if Hunter, Grant, McMillian and Starks are gone trade down to the 12-15 range and take Jihaad Campbell. We need smart tough players in the front 7 more than just a pass rusher

"Team sources say Graham has a bad body and looks like “the marshmallow man.” They think he could be a mid-first-round pick." That doesn't inspire confidence

i said it before during and after the draft, i wanted Ladd or Mitchell and didn’t see it with Legette. I honestly think Morgan pulled a Hurney/Armanti Edwards and took Legette because local star

Legette stopped running with the ball in the air

the passes were pinpoint even though the receivers were covered. bryce deserve credit here. that’s a franchise QB drive right there and he did it with more confidence than i’ve ever seen from him in the pros

I was screaming for Frazier during the draft. Its not hindsight when you are just right. Zach Frazier is already one of the best centers in the NFL and the Steelers are one of the best teams. What's new. https://x.com/Alex_Kozora/status/1866323128617513407

I'm starting to think we will pick in the 8-12 range with the way the defense is playing. However, I'd love to get Hunter or McMillian. This team is dying for a big play weapon. I don't think you realize how having a Chase/Lamb type WR would open up things for Chuba and the running game.

I never thought this would happen, just being honest. I gave up on him. But the dude let the game slow down and now he can escape and step up in the pocket. He couldn’t do that before. That alone should give him another year. This team just can’t find WRs to save its life.

Canales is that dude. Great calls today. We have a coach and maybe a QB if we can get someone that can catch balls

This is such a predicted loss as I can ever remember. We do not match up well with this team.

Its easier to build the defense in free agency than get a #1 weapon. Take Hunter or McMillan if available. If not, hopefully a QB is and trade down

Jameis threw for 500 yards and lost. That's who he is. You can't be serious wanting him as your QB. At least Bryce has a (small) chance of becoming the guy. Jameis has no chance

WR harder to get. Get one of those top 2 WR's in the draft (I think Hunter can play CB for us too, wouldn't mind if he was the pick at all). If both are gone, trade as far down as possible hoping to get a #1 next year or at least another #2 and build the defense and O-line

I gotta hand it to Bryce. He’s been ridiculously accurate and the receivers are failing him

Panthers aren't winning another game this season so I don't know what you are worried about. We'll pick top 4 with a 3-14 record. I do think a team will finish 5-12 and end up picking 10th, because there are that many bad teams

Legette has been separating. His route running has improved every game. He works hard, he'll learn how to catch over the next few seasons. Not a #1, but with Coker we at least have 2 capable starters. Trading for someone like Garrett Wilson would open up a lot. I'm optimistic.

You can be happy about the Panthers win, and also recognize we need to draft another QB

Bryce has changed. He is much more calm and is throwing the ball well out of the pocket. But, he’s still not a franchise QB. he can’t throw deep. and if you can’t throw deep, you aren’t a playoff QB. Hes at least proven capable of being a decent backup QB though. not what you want to hear for a number one overall you traded up for though.

that’s why im confident in Canales being our coach. the line is blocking, the running back is hitting holes and the receivers seem to be open. our QB just can’t execute (and we are relying on rookie WR and TE now)

I'm 100% in on Ward. He's cool, swagged, and collected on the field like Burrow, and is big and has obvious arm talent. Love his release too, very Matt Stafford-like. I don't think we are winning again, we only have one chance to win again this season and that's against the Giants next week.

I think some team will sucker themselves into thinking they can develop him for a 2nd round pick. 3rd, i dunno, but maybe to get the salary off the books

this was our last win of the season. we are still picking 1st.
