Does anyone actually think Bryce will actually be good?

Bryce has no choice but to show improvement or he will be benched/gone after this season.  Two things going on:

1.  Bryce is given fresh start with huge supporting cast improvement

2. New coaching and GM who are not tied to Bryce

Bryce has to show steady improvement during the season or he will be on another team or back-up in 2025.  He knows that as well.

Say it a little louder one more time for those that don't get it. The fear and angst over this is getting crazy.

I have a question for the class. How many 1st overall picks that were qb's and not named Cam Newton have there been in the last decade that amounted to anything let alone the title of 1st over pick? 

yep. This was a bad idea from the start. 

If the guy at the top is can’t miss, you aren’t able to get to the 1st pick in the first place. So it was a wing and a prayer type of move.

It always is when you go all in like that.

Seriously!  I love the "I'm afraid he will keep us mediocre" people.  We haven't been mediocre in a minute so for now that will be a welcomes change.  Once we are there we can look at improving where we need to even at QB.

Burrow, Luck until the retirement, Goff just signed a new contract this week. That's something. Actually Jameis is the only one out of the still active 7 that's not a starting this year. Cam and Luck obviously not technically in the league

Jeez this board sucks these days. What happened over here? Poor guy asked a question and just immediately gets talked down to. Is Jeremy even part of this board anymore? 

Jeremy is a food network and Bravo network kind of a guy these days.

Goff is on his 2nd team though. Kyler has been up and down in Arizona. Some people were upset he got his contract. Baker is on his 4th team? Jameis is a backup on another team, Stafford is on his 2nd team. Luck retired because his was constantly getting hurt behind that terrible OL.

So its not a stellar or long list and no guarantee.

      Taking on Watson contract if the compensation is right

      By rayzor · Posted

      Would it be possible to do that trade without us getting Watson?

      I'd be willing to cede everything east of Hickory to SC if I'm being honest.

      Stop the obsession with the QB position

      By CPantherKing · Posted

      A look at all the QBs making championships over the past 35 years says it's not 1st round QB driven. There are only 64 championship QBs, and this includes Jake Delhomme, Kurt Warner, Case Keenum, Tom Brady, Nick Foles, Mark Rypien, Eric Kramer, Brock Purdy, Rich Gannon, Brad Johnson, Russell Wilson and more non 1st round QBs. 5 of these QBs went to a championship in the past 10 seasons. 3 of the 5 won how many of the past 10 SBs? Foles beat Brady. Mahomes and Brady have won 7 of the past 10 SBs. Mahomes walked into a ready made contender. The other 3 are Foles, Manning and Stafford. We know Manning did nothing. It was defense. Stafford managed a defensive game. Foles beat Manning in an offensive shootout. Keep in mind Manning and Stafford were not drafted in the 1st round for the team that won the SB. The Rams have drafted how many 1st round picks in the past 8 years? The Broncos only drafted defense in the 1st round for 5 straight years leading up to their SB, and that's what stopped Cam. Any QB game manager can get you to the playoffs. OL, running game, defense and coaching carry the load during the season. Clutch QBs are needed in the playoffs to get to the championship games, and there is nothing favoring a 1st round QB being clutch over all other QBs. Never draft a QB in the top 20 picks unless they have a professional sports pedigree! If you need a QB it's simple competition and steady flow of a QB type (physicality/talent is not a deciding factor for champions). Sticking to a competitive strategy that filters out QBs who are high TO% and low clutch performance will always work. You're always looking for the one who refuses to give up the starting spot by feeling momentum, showing high situational preparedness, and knowing when to take risks. Top 20 picks should be defense with few exceptions. If you want offense, trade down to get more picks for defense and OL. There should always be a 4 QB rotation (3 roster and 1 practice squad) on the depth chart until 1 has held onto the starting spot for 34 games. Then go to 2 QBs on the roster. Patience in this process is key. There will never be a QB allowed to fail for more than 5 straight games for the myth of long term development. This QB strategy results in hitting on a franchise QB within 3 seasons while building a strong defense and deep OL. The defining factor of success for an NFL Franchise has been the HC/GM combos who have studied, mastered and implemented Bill Walsh's book together. The Panthers franchise appears to be no where near this championship strategy or philosophy. Butting heads over philosophy and mixed/inconsistent strategies have been the constant since Tepper took over.
