Bryce Young May Be The Answer

[MHS831]

the thing that might be somewhat overlooked here is this:  Canales may indeed be the QB whisperer.  I don't see Bryce improving without him.  That is pretty important in the long term.

I wasn't pleased to see how Carter played against SMU this past weekend. I want to see what Graham from Michigan can do. Maybe we can get a better picture of Carter in the next game.

No one in their right mind looks at how Bryce has performed since coming back and thinks we need to drop another first round pick on a QB in the upcoming draft.

If you're watching the games, and you should be, you can see that we need help on defense more than anything else right now. Bryce is showing incredible growth as a QB and I wouldn't stop that growth right now when Edge, LB and DT are so desperately needed.

 

we need a defensive heavy draft. 

I'm still on the double up Carter train.  Penn St Carter in the 1st and Clemson Carter in the 2nd. Front 7 players.  Maybe corner in the 3rd.

What a joke. 

I agree, and that's why we get a QB in '26.

If the wheels had come off / the Cowboys game had been a return to bad, and we'd lost out to the point we could draft Sanders or Ward, maybe, but we need defense no matter what and frankly we'll be in a good position for it this draft. Bryce has played us out of a different QB.

QB isn't our biggest need for once, but there's still a question mark on long term. We'll see how he does next year, hopefully with some competition in camp, ideally with an improved defense.

What does this even mean? 

he looks better than the Spencer rattler and mason Rudolphs of the world?

I will not say he looks like a franchise qb yet. But yes to me he looks better than the career back ups of the league and some of the low level starters. 

To me right now hes a top 20 qb with the potential to be more but hes not there yet. But I'm optimistic if he keeps improving he has the potential to be our franchise qb.

The kid is night and day different from last year and the first 2 games of this year. Now hes fun to watch

Bryce has played well enough for us to have won 4 of the last 5 games, mostly against playoff teams.

He's is trending towards being a viable long-term starter you can build around.

This was what this season was supposed to be about, even if it didn't transpire in a straightforward fashion.

This message board sometimes tends towards an echo chamber. Very, very few Panthers fans outside this place are emotionally invested in Bryce failing. 

The vast majority of non-basement dwelling members of Panthers Nation are happy with the way this franchise is trending and actually root for this franchise (and its players) to succeed.

There are still plenty of irrational Bryce haters that will never be happy with anything, but for fans with objectivity (and for the coaches and exes that actually know football), Bryce is starting to look like the phenom he was at Alabama.

Should he be immune from competition next year? No

Should he go into next season as QB1? Absolutely 

A lot of delusional pessimists on this board are going to be dragging their knuckles in consternation when Bryce and Andy are our QBs again next year.

And most of Panthers Nation outside of perennially upset incels on here will look forward to 2025.

Merry Christmas Everyone! Here's to next season and competing for the division!

Happy to see Bryce get better--until we have a top 10 QB, however, you keep shopping.  He has until we find someone better to prove himself. If he lessens the need, he extends his longevity.  That is how it is for all NFL players.

I mean insulted folks who have a different opinion then you is pretty juvenile and childish but you be you bro.  You got this thing already figured out.

Bryce has played good enough to be the guy next year. It all depends on what he does next season to say anything else from that point on. They have to load up the defense in the draft.

I would say something about a pot & kettle but 1) you probably wouldn't get it

and 2) I'm not wasting energy on a goof like you today

100%. But there are a lot of goofs in here that have so invested their entire supposed fandom on Bryce being trash that you can't even have a discourse with them.

I'm glad there are still normies in this fanbase

That guy is a troll. I said this yesterday this fanbase feeds off hate. Actively rooting for a QB to fail just so it can prove your point is weird.

 

At this point I'm questioning are some of these people even Panthers fans or just Panthers haters. This kid has been a different QB since the benching. He's improving with a limited roster around him. Damn people be happy.
