Its interesting to see just how much Bryce is being portrayed by the media as the victim. 

Because it's easy.  It allows the 24/7 content machine that always has to have something to say that is modern day sports media, a chance to have a loud opinion that everyone can rally behind (panthers being a joke) without them having to actually watch any tape or anything.  It's low hanging fruit.

LOL

But seriously, I bet he was asked to put on weight, given specific footwork issues to work on, stuff like that. Then showed up same as last year.

If Bryce wanted to improve, you would be hearing him say things like ``I need to work on myself``, ``I did such and such to help myself get better in the offseason`` or when things dont go well ``Its on me, i need to get better``. Instead you hear this bitchass mentality of he was shocked or angry or its not in his hands and you dont hear him say how he is going to get the starting job back. He is a beta male.

Dude has been seriously coddled and now all the sports media making excuses for him because they can't accept being wildly wrong themselves just adds to it.

I honestly dont care whos decision it was. 

I care that, regardless of how small, there at least is a glimmer of hope that we see any semblance of functioning offense going forward. Before we had zero hope and knew exactly what was going to happen.

We all are over him in a big way. But if Tepper made the decision there is no glimmer of hope because everyone in NFL circles will know it.

I think the Panthers pray that doesn't happen.  If it does i honestly think they call up Plummer or bring someone else in, but they know the media storm that will cause so they hope Dalton stays healthy so they can keep saying Young is #2.

Plummer honestly isn’t better. Unless the sign another vet here soon or trade Bryce, I can definitely see him playing again.

I honestly believe Plummer would do more than Bryce has

Plummer has at least shown the willingness to throw the ball past 10 yards

Benching Young is the right call whoever pushed for it. It should have already happened last year. They need to get someone better than Plumber to bring in.

The optics stink but they were going to get kicked for something as the perineal garbage fire anyways. Young has been the worst part of the team this year and it's not close. Young working harder to get a trade then he did to improve his game says it all.

I don't think they would be calling Plummer up because they think he's better.   I think they would be calling him up because Bryce’s time here is over.

In the preseason where Bryce did too. Plummer has terrible vision as well as a slow release. That’s a bad combo…

Bryce took a sack in the preseason because he refused to throw the ball downfield 

I mentioned it when it happened. As soon as I saw that I knew nothing had changed

To me if you are going that route, you might as well give the one you invested in another shot because Plummer isn’t doing crap.

      Redzone Offense vs. KC by drive

      By Icege · Posted

      NFL Pro has the All-22 up already 😄 Going to grab a play or two from each redzone series to put screenshots to. Looks like AT angled his route off to the near pylon rather than the back corner where Bryce was throwing to. I imagine this is something they'll quickly try to figure out with Thielen back from IR. After watching the All-22 again, this was actually a pretty nifty play. I thought it was a TE screen to Tremble because of the way XL charged the DB, but he quickly shed and kept upfield as seen in the second screenshot. This looks like it had multiple layers built into it with AT running the crosser, XL the fade, Tremble to the flat. The progression would call for the play to go to Chuba here as the LB does follow Tremble out into the flat. Ball hits Chuba low and in the hands, but the LB does a good job disrupting the catch.

      Crazy stat

      The bottom lines to me are that a) we played well enough to beat the best team in the league and b) Bryce Young is growing into a bridge QB role (his ceiling) for us. As much as I don't want BY around after the season, it seems DC can still build the O with a game manager at QB for now. Best case scanario, we can build the D through the draft this year and take a QB we have conviction outside the 1st this or next draft. If BY keeps improving, we are going to win a couple more games this year.

      Bryce developing before our eyes

      By *FreeFua* · Posted

      Bryce has been a completely different QB since coming back. That started in Denver where it was obviously he was playing a lot more loose and willing to push the ball downfield  Bryce continues to build off of the previous weeks performance and that’s what you want to see Bryce has been making some real good anticipation throws. Reading defenses well. Pushing the ball downfield (7 throws of 20+ air yards yesterday. 8 if you want to include PI to Thielen). The deep ball accuracy has been there. Some of Young’s best throws yesterday were incompletions. Sideline balls to XL and Moore both should’ve been caught. RZ dot to Tremble should’ve been caught. And another RZ ball to Moore that Young gave him a chance at. Bryce is starting to execute Canales offense and yesterday Canales finally opened it up a bit. Canales was to blame for the 126 passing yards in Germany as he played a more conservative game.  The next bit I’m looking for his for Young to be a bit more decisive with running the ball. Start putting that on film and it’ll help open things up a tad
