I don’t think he looks shell shocked or panicky, he just hasn’t played well

I kinda disagree. I think that he hasn't looked panicky, but I think that he has most certainly looked "frenetic" when under pressure at times. It's mainly when the pocket breaks down immediately. On a couple of occasions, he started abandoning the pocket before he really had to, probably because they were getting to him pretty good. In that respect, I see some cracks.

He needs to play all of this year and the next year so we can be absolutely certain he’s a bust before we draft number one again.

I hear you but I will take a different approach. We need to sit him to find out if the rest of the offense has anything to keep. As an example- All of us thought the O-Line was legit going into this season. Now- they look terrible. Is it Young making them look bad? I would like to see Dalton play just to see how the line looks.

No. Figuring out if Bryce is a bust is the number one priority. We can’t do that unless our superprocessor is on the field

LOL- Superprocessor. I want to believe he is the answer but I have a lot doubt. I was always concerned about his size even before he was the Panthers pick.

 @frankw said it best if we have to coddle Bryce mentally we've already lost. That was the whole point of drafting the dude.

 

I never bought the "soft benching" theory after he hurt his ankle because of that.  There wasn't even a whisper of a knock on him mentally during the scouting process. 

It's played out here as he gotten turned into a meat crayon in the pocket over and over.  He just jumps back up and gets back to the line.

Yeah, he is showing signs of early onset David Carr Battered QB Syndrome(DCBQS).

It’s all cumulative.  He is moving on from reads too quickly, partly because he doesn’t trust his line.  Receivers are not challenging defenders and give up on routes often.
 

 There is no sense of fire or urgency.  We desperately need a run game to take the pressure off Bryce until he can settle down and be comfortable.

I really think we should play Andy. Make clear to the media, it's not Bryce's fault and we aren't giving up on him. But these are clearly not the weapons to help Bryce thrive. Dalton might actually be able to throw to Chark, TMJ and, of course, Thielen...because of his style as a passer.

Then, in the off season, we find weapons more suited to Bryce's style.

      Sure, there's definitely a chance that a fire sale in 2022 could've paid off but I don't think that's a certainty. It's not just about stockpiling the picks and bettering odds; it's about hitting on those picks, having a stable coaching staff to develop them, and keeping the locker room engaged. We didn't exactly have a model front office nor stable coaching staff in 2022. It's worth noting that part of the reason that DJ had to be included in the trade up for #1 was because the Bears needed an immediate, proven WR1 to help Fields. It was him or another immediate first-round pick, not a future one like what was being offered for Burns (whom teams knew that things were shaky with and that they could afford to wait). As for the Eagles, they recovered because the foundation was already in place. Pederson got flak and was ultimately fired (and was just fired again this offseason from the Jags). Their recovery was quick because the foundation was already in place: Howie Roseman and a solid roster (that included a stacked OL, a second year QB, and a veteran defense). Philly had a margin of error that just wasn't available to Carolina. I'm not against using the draft to rebuild, but a full-on teardown comes with real consequences: fan disengagement, a fractured locker room, poor development, a losing environment... and I don't believe that we had the necessary leadership at the time to cleanly navigate it. That's a gamble that I want no part of.  Now that we do have a staff that seems to be in complete alignment and building for the future rather than fighting for their jobs, I'm more inclined to observe their process and see where it leads rather than backseat driving with "perfect" hindsight.

      I see it a bit differently considering there is only 20M in cap space. Given how many of the premium positions are on rookie contracts their cap should not be nearly maxed out. Tillis still has a lot of work to do before these rookies will need a second contract.
