As fans have we unanimously concluded that Bryce Young IS THE PROBLEM

The last thing I want to do is read what the average fan thinks.  Most can't think past the last game they watched.

Now we have people trying to say we were really pretty good last year and the whole problem was just Bryce.  The coaching staff, playcalling, play of the rest of the team was not good.  Giving up on a high draft pick after nearly killing him with 9 different starter at guard, horrible play calling and a below average run game is not a recipe for a rookie QB. 

I'm not blind.  His play the first two weeks of this season was awful and 100% is not good enough to play QB in the NFL, starter or backup.  If this is who he is and there is no hope for improvement then he'll be out of the league soon enough. 

Go watch the All 22 film.  There is a lot of horrible plays but there are also a lot of good one.  NFL level ability, throws and runs.  More than enough examples of good plays to say if he can play like that consistently then he can be an NFL starting QB.

It's very easy to see the biggest problem now is his confidence which has caused him to regress even more and make his good traits average or worse and his bad traits look like they can't be fixed.

We know he's a young kid.
We know last year the panthers did a horrible job putting in a position to be successful.
We know that our new head coach excels at helping and training QBs.
We know we've already paid a good deal of his contract.
We know he's very willing to learn and has a good attitude despite his situation.
We know he has the raw ability to play at this level because he has already done it.

There are a great number of reasons not to throw the kid out on his butt just yet.

We are at the bottom of the league.  We don't have the pleasure of throwing any potential away.

Worse case we miss out on a 4th or 5th round pick.  Best case, Canales is the real deal and he turns Bryce into the player he was in college but at the NFL level.

Bryce Young had one good football game.  Take that away, and you have maybe 2-3 NFL-level throws per game. Not elite or amazing throws; just NFL-level. He had maybe a handful across the entire season of plays that made me go "Damn, that was a great play."

QBs with a lot of talent find ways to shine even on bad teams. BY just didn't.  

Has a QB ever come back from such a disastrously bad start to his career?

He is finished in Carolina as the starting QB

the locker room has decided

no matter what fans think, or talking heads think, or the owner thinks, or the coaches want, or where anyone wants to place blame, deserved or not,  the locker room decided

these are grown men in a short term livelihood 

they will not support someone at a pro level who is nor. capable of  putting  money in their pockets 

he has done, and will do absolutely nothing at the pro level to change that.  He cant   Not who he is.  Big man’s game. Physically. Emotionally. Mentally

It's not ideal, no. But I still think the primary reasons for his failure have been that all the things he was supposed to be great at just haven't translated to the NFL in any way. When you're not spotting obvious corner blitzes and making simple adjustments to protection you've got problems well beyond a few inches of height.

He's not the shortest NFL to find success.  The biggest issue Bryce faces is the mental aspect of it.  That was supposed to be his strength.  He was supposed to be a super processor.  He's not doing that.  He had moments his rookie year, but the offensive dysfunction/sacks of year 1 could have ruined him. 

I don't know if Bryce will bounce back.  I figure we'll see it at some point this year when Andy gets hurt.  He could be down to pick up his newspaper and be out 3-4 weeks with back spasms (been there!).  I hope not, I do like the Andy Dalton experience right now.  I'm also not in a hurry to see Bryce come out there and poop the bed repeatedly.  But there's a high likelihood of him having to play at some point this season.

I really do like Bryce as a person.  Seems super accountable.  But he's lost his mojo.  Got the yips.  Whatever you want to call it.  He's got to have some confidence in himself.  He's got to grab his nuts and man up.  He can have his faith, but it's meaningless until BRYCE does something about things he can control.

Unfortunately,  It looks like Tepper and his management crew are the problem.

I am not a fan of, sacrificing your future to get a promising draft prospect.  

People may not remember when Iron Mike Ditka became coach of the Saints.  He traded away the Saints future draft picks, to draft Ricky Williams.  Ricky did not work out.

Tepper traded future for Bryce Young.  I understand the reasoning, “bring in the next talented QB”. (Bring in the next Patrick Mahomes.)

I'm still trying to figure out the gap between a Bryce Young and a Stetson Bennet in the eyes of media and scouting. Aside from age and off the field behavior they are essentially the same player.

    • Real Estate Developer here..  So I develop real estate, so I am inadvertently intertwined with real estate agents - I am not one.  I have a love/hate relationship with them.  The industry like most is dominated by the top 20%. The top 20% can make a 7 figure income, while the bottom 80% are mostly your average joes. There is no second place The thing to remember as an agent is that there is no second place. Either you get the listing/sale or you dont. You can be working with a perspective seller for ages, giving them free consulting advice or home valuations and at the last second they might choose another agent to list with.. cause thats their kids friends dad.. You did all the work - you get nothing.  As an agent you might even be working with a buyer for months trying to find the perfect house only for them to really just 'like looking' and never being serious - you get nothing.  The best (beginner) agents will sit on the phone all day long, talking to people, volunteering on community organizations and being out in the community as there is a 'guilt' factor with selecting one. If Agent Bob is on your church committee there is a higher chance than not that you will hire him over the agent you see in a bill board.   Once your successful.. Once you have made a name for yourself it gets easier. People just think of you because they have seen your sign or they know of someone that have used you. Eventually people just start calling you.  The easiest way to make money as an agent is to get the listing. Once you get the listing your only need to post the listing and now all the other agents are trying to find a buyer. The best way to get listings is to do all the things previously mentioned.    Its not fair.  Because there is no money for 2nd place, agents are known to try to steal listings, or they will offer less of a split commission. AKA The listing agent will get 4% the selling agent will get 2%.  When an agent lists the sale like that some buying agents will simply not show your home to their clients.. even it ifs what they are looking for. So as a home owner, you should ask how they intend to split the commission.  Years ago I hired the top agent in our area to sell my home. They sold it in 24 hours and I paid THOUSANDS in commissions. I mentioned how I thought it was kind of BS that he "did nothing" and I paid so much. His response was one that has stuck with me. He said, "when you hire me, you are paying for the 30+ years of experience that I have. Because of my experience I have a book of 30 people that are looking for a 500k home and 40 people looking for a 400k home. I can sell your home fast people I have built a book of business. That is what you are paying for"   So I would agree that I think that agents make too much money for what they do. But I also have seen far too many people get into real estate, only to quit and go back to their regular job because they always came in 2nd.  Happy to answer more questions if you have. 
    • I think if he sucks we'll feel better about losing that pick. That's the solace. Such as it is.  It is strength on strength our O vs their D, and the other sides are weakness vs weakness. DJ will be motivated but they have to get it to him.
