We Panther fans have been lucky to experience excellence at the MLB position. 

Sam Mills

Dan Morgan

Jon Beason

Luke Keuchly

Even guys like Chris Draft and now Frankie Luvu gave us a decent level of play. 
 

Luke is the GOAT and had concussions not been a problem he probably would cemented #1 all time by now. 
 

Does make you wonder what could have been with Dan Morgan, very similar player to Luke. Not quite as cerebral as but maybe had an edge athletically and was more of a ruthless player.

With the staff we had at the time, his career would have been over before it began.

Brees didn't really become elite until he was paired with Sean Payton.

And that's why I have faith in the BY pick. We have an excellent coaching staff. This isn't Matt Rhule and Mike Shula sending a dude out there to get wrecked over and over. We actually have coaching now. And an offensive line. And some decent playmakers.

Any Panther fan who sat around and watched Brees carve us up twice a year for a freaking decade and is STILL harping about size blows my mind.

People forget he was drafted by the chargers and it took him years to figure out how to get around his lack of size. If we take Young, he will be gone in a couples years and become good year 6. We dont have time to wait around 6 years to figure that out. He we someone who can deliver the ball and high accuracy. That something that develops very quickly with the playbook and knowing your receivers.

Different sport but Zion is one the (if not THE) biggest dude on the court...when he plays, except almost he never plays because he stays hurt even in a non-contact sport.

I guess I've still yet to see the injuries that small Bryce would get that big Cam wouldn't. I suppose he could get the wind knocked out of him more, but I don't see how he could have more concussion, knee injuries, shoulder injuries etc because he's small. I'm also not a sports physician, so there's that.

I can already see it next year if/when he gets hurt the debate will still be about his size and if that contributed to it.

Young is coming in more prepared.

You actually make a solid point. Picking a player over size or too small can be a issue. Picking a player like Morant you got a superstar.

It is a comfort to hear Luke Kuechly speak highly of Bryce Young. Now we have to wait and see what happens.

I have my own preference about which QB the Panthers should draft between Young and Stroud.

However,  I will  trust our new fine  coaches, who have more insight than I do, to make the right call, and will gladly support and abide by their decision.

      Gameday Thread: KC-CAR

      By strato · Posted

      He made some excellent throws but he always has made some excellent throws here and there. I don't know what to think, which is what I was apprehensive about. Is he going to have a decent downfield game? Because okay Legette dropped one, but someone was giving stats prior to the bye or during it where he had two downfield completions and one of them was the jump ball that is just launched and fingers are crossed that our guy comes down with it, and yesterday we saw that again. The Russell Wilson school of downfield passing.  I don't feel like that is sustainable, but at the same time you have to do Something to make the defense understand they have to defend that downfield throws. Like i said, confused.  I guess I'm going to review the game for myself and look closely at his mechanics and stuff because if he actually fixed that stuff it explains the better throws. And that has been my biggest objection, or what I see as the thing that makes or breaks his chances, that unorthodox dropback and tippy toe action and not having his feet set which limits velocity etc etc.

      Crazy stat

      By Manna · Posted

      The negative Nancy in me (or objective?) says that they had a bye week to prepare for the Chiefs. However, it’s one thing to have a good plan and it’s another to actually execute it. For all the flack he’s received (from me as well), Bryce seemingly has put his head down and worked his tail off and his play is giving me hope. The first 18-game Bryce showed no progression whatsoever. He gets benched, comes back, and has shown steady progress every week he has started. I think I’m starting to see what the Bryce lovers and unconditional defenders were saying all along, and I hope he can show that on a regular basis for the sake of our QB1 position.

      Some Thoughts on Our Remaining Games

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      Yeah, we could still very well end up 4-13 with the 2nd pick.   I think LVR has the inside track for 1, with only a JAX team as a team on docket that could be beatable.
