This was a Miles Sanders rush attempt on our first drive.  You judge the vision here.

Why on earth should they do that? The season is a write-off. We need to use the remaining games to give Young as many reps as possible. The whole sitting him to shadow a vet ship sailed long ago.

Because the locker room is losing faith.  Brian Burns offering zero encouragement publicly is the point being made here.  You're not going to find the patience you're preaching we need when players career paths and earning potential are affected by ineffective QB play.

Purdy would look terrible on this team

Who else would look bad?  Mahommes?  Allen?  Hurts?

Do you just categorically think anyone except Dalton vs Seattle would look bad?

Just curious why you decided to state Purdy specifically would look bad.

FOX showed that graphic during the game showing other first year QB records

 

Aikman, Montana, Manning all on the list of having horrible rookie years

they turned out okay

You can find A LOT more shitty quarterbacks to compare him to.

Terrible as in you think his image doesn’t jive with black, blue or silver?  Otherwise, you’re just stating conjecture as fact which is lazy and ignorant.

Shanahan is a master play caller and play designer. That TD to FB was the 2nd time that play has been called tonight. Both times he was wide open in the flat on the play-action pass. Why don’t we have something like this in our playbook?

Young would kill in Shanahan's system, but this post doesn't make sense. 

Yeah that’s why Garoppolo and Lance were clearly just tits.  Not saying Shanahan isn’t top tier coaching but stop stripping Purdy of his due credit just because you need to make excuses for Bryce.  Purdy got two other higher pedigree guys shipped outta town fast, full stop.

The best description I’ve seen anywhere was from another poster.  It goes like this….

At a very possible 0-17 and even more possible league worst record, we will literally pick AFTER the Super Bowl champs next year.  

The potential comedy of the leagues first 0-17 team picking after the champs is unparalleled.

There were some good things today, which is better than no good things.

The first TD drive was gutsy.  The crowd was hostile, Detroit D was jacked.  They wanted to put us away right there.  

Sanders really fugged the team over.  We had a chance to stay in the game when it mattered and his poo ass coughs up another costly fumble.  This really hurt the team.

Not much else to speak of until garbage yards.  At least he made some throws once the pressure was off.

It wasn’t a good performance overall but it was his best so far.  Let’s just keep hoping for growth because we have nothing else to hope for tbh.

Down 18 and still haven’t attempted a pass beyond 20 yards.  Not even attempted down 18.  Let that wash over you.

Come on ref, give us a break.  Can we not hold just a lil bit?  Look at the score!

LOL Fox breaks out MJ Thriller to commercial break.  
 

This is not a thriller.

This is such a bad football team. I honestly don’t know if there’s anyone worth keeping. I’d start by firing Frank on Monday and giving Bryce the rest of the season to earn a job next year. 

He should have earned it this year, like everyone else who has to fight their ass off to make it in the league.  He was handed the keys by default.  We’ll never know how sitting for a year might have changed things.

Trade him for picks…..this is the way

His stock is going down every game.

LMAO

Honestly Tepper's Panthers going 0-17, and picking after the Super Bowl winner in the draft would be really funny.

That’s about as dark as that picture can be painted.  Well done, take your pie.

No poo really, thats exactly what I said LOL   

Jeez dude I was agreeing with you, take some meds.

Reminds me of Deshaun Foster, cept, Foster could actually make things happen 

Foster was dynamic.  That acrobatic pylon score in the Super Bowl is an iconic image.

That’s the dude that complained about boos last week.  JFC

Gutsy drive right there.  That is progress.  Let’s do it again.

Thing are not going well, but trying to constantly run out of the shotgun is not going to work.  Sure, our guards are pretty terrible, especially Zavala; and Icky is defiantly having sophomore slump as he is being transitioned away from what he's really good at (power run blocking).  We do not have the guys who can win in that set up.  What many in Panthers social media have been saying: we need to get back to power running, that's the coaches issue.  The lack of motion is a coaching issue.  The fact that defenses don't have to defend past 10 yards is an offensive issue.

What made Bryce special was his ability to improvise in and out of the pocket.  Again, I think we have a coaching issue where Frank and Co are trying to put a square peg in a round hole too often.  Bryce has looked his best when he's able to make plays, and there aren't enough opportunities to do so.

Many teams move to the RPO/Read Option game is because they have QBs they can use for that.  Bryce is a brain - not a Jalen Hurts, Cam Newton, AR or anyone else who has run ability in their game.  The Panthers and Reich need to stop calling so many plays based on the RPO and find 5 or so power runs and Play Action from them.  Get a 300 lb fullback out there.  The Panthers need to figure out how to lean on a D, even if it's with 5 plays.  Sure, we don't have a hammer back, but Chuba is running hard.  

Reich is far too predictable because most of his run plays are RPO to the interior OL on first down.  If a moron like me see that, then smart NFL folks do.  

I appreciate the thoughtful response but the crux of this post was whether or not we had a tell.

Sure, Bryce has only taken 27 snaps from center for “reasons”.  That’s not the issue I’m asking to analyze.

The issue is, of those 27 snaps we’ve ran the ball 26 times.  We are telling the defense that if we snap from center we’re running the ball.  We either need to mix a respectable number of passes from under center snaps or just abandon it completely.  I’ll chart tomorrow as well and see if anything changes.

We go down 3-28 at halftime. Tepper comes onto the field at the start of the 3rd quarter and knocks Reich's ass out. He then pulls out a set of brass balls from his jacket and places it at the 50 yard line. Tepper then picks up the headset and locates a nearby camera and yells "this is my fuggin team now b*tch". Our team goes on a 100-0 run and wins 103-28. At the end of the game, Nicole Tepper comes running from the stands and holds her arms out going for a hug. She bypasses Tepper and goes straight to Bryce Young, embracing with a hug and making out with him. Tepper shrugs his shoulders and tosses his headset to the ground. 15 minutes later, Tepper sells the team to Ben Navarro. Bryce breaks up with his long term girlfriend and starts his new adventure with Nicole.

Lost me with the 100-0 run.

Bryce will clear 300 yards and 3 TDs. 
 

So our receivers will take a day off from being garbage like they did for Dalton? ROFL 

Biggest surprise tomorrow, our defense continues to play solid and keeps us in the game.  Despite being big dogs again we keep it close before a late turnover provides a comfortable margin.  Wait is this is a surprise, did I do the thing right?
