I do believe Bryce's confident is shot. When he said his confidence is in the Lord, that means he knows it's going to take a miracle just to turn things around. A QBs confidence is everything. Remember when Delhome had that 5 game INT against the Cardinals, his career was just never the same after that. His production just fell off a cliff. I think why Cam was so effective was that he had so much confidence in his physical ability. He knew he was the biggest baddest dude on the field.

Bryce regressed big time and the bar was already low.  I do think if he had this Offensive Line and scheme at the beginning of last season he would have played better.  But at this point, he looks totally lost and benching him may ultimately be good for him and make him a serviceable QB somewhere else.

Look at the roster when Cam was drafted to this team.  Compare to this team.  It’s laughable

Cam would have killed for this OL and weapons group post 2013. Sure, he had Smitty and Olsen at first and a solid OL that year, but once Gross was gone his line was always significantly worse than our OL this year and once Smitty was gone his weapons were significantly worse. Yea last year the line and weapons weren’t good but they weren’t as bad as Bryce made them look.

It's arguable that Cam's 2015 MVP offense team is similar in talent to this team. Outside of Olsen, he had a declining Stewart who didn't even rush for 1000 yds, Philly Brown was the starter opposite Ted Ginn. On the defensive side, obviously it's not even close that we had a championship caliber Defense in 2015. All of that to say that Cam elevated the players around him, Bryce hasn't shown an ounce of the same impact.

I like that he still says “we” when talking about the Panthers. Miss this dude for sure. 

He definitely made the right decision to step away. He would have had a mental breakdown trying to lead the defense through the Rhule Era.  I'd definitely take him at gm over Morgan. Luke is one of the smartest guys to ever do it and I'd trust him to nail a high percentage of picks from his film study acumen alone.

    • I don't need my QB to have arm talent for me to like them, but I do put a lot of weight to how it can affect that player's max potential when it's as bad as Bryce's is, particularly when combined with his overall size.  Even the most ardent Bryce supporters can't honestly deny that Bryce is likely to have the weakest arm of all starting QB's his entire career, maybe some year's he's only in the Bottom 5, but short of pumping steroids, that's never going to change. I'm not a historian of the league on QB's arm strength compared to others, but how many players with that weak of an arm compared to the rest of the league, also was an above average QB for a sustained period of time? I know Brees didn't have a great arm and that's the comparison people like to use for Bryce, but again, he's smaller and weaker armed than even Brees was, and Brees is one of the biggest outliers in NFL history as is.  Which is why Bryce was also betting on him becoming THE biggest outlier in league history at the position.  Bryce doesn't need to become any certain type of QB for me to like him or to be considered a success.  But he does need to become a QB who raises the play of your team, who can drag you to wins when needed, and has you as a contender in more years than not (all teams have down years, but the great QB's have their teams winning playoff games more years than not). It's why I didn't want to draft Bryce, because I just never did, and still don't, think he has that potential in him for a long period of time and at a high level.  Can we put the perfect team around him and we get the right schedule in any given year for a player like him to lead us to a high seed and maybe make a run, sure of course.   But those teams don't have sustained success because it takes the perfect combination of rookie contracts and lucky picks/signings that all pan out at the right time.  They have a great regular season, flame out in the playoffs, and then go back to being that team that either just misses the playoffs or just makes it in to lose in the first round every year.  Picking in the 13-20 range every year, always missing out on the true elite talent in the draft but still not contending. Is that who fans want us to become?  I know it's better than what we've been for a while, but I want better for my team, I love our Panthers and I want us to win the Super Bowl. Prove me wrong, I want to be wrong, I don't want to be stuck in NFL purgatory, I don't want to need to have to find a new QB in 2 or 3 years because we still can't get into the playoffs. But I am who I am, and I am someone who doesn't keep his team colored glasses on at all times to only looks at the positive, I look at realities and call them how I see them.  And I see Bryce as our path to NFL purgatory at best right now and it scares the living hell out of me. Bryce, prove me wrong.
    • I miss Luvu, haha.  Chinn too, but really we hadn't used him well since his rookie year.
