Speaker 1 (00:00):
Law only on Sports Radio ninety two point seven af
M A U fnzy fine, He's the Weston Walker Show.

Speaker 2 (00:17):
Even a crowd knows what's coming there.

Speaker 3 (00:23):
Wes and Walker back at the chaidlor Volta Studio. CEB
Injury Law dot Com, CB Injury Law dot Com.

Speaker 2 (00:29):
One call.

Speaker 3 (00:30):
That's all the Carolina's personal injury lawyers. Thank you for
listening to us in the midday on Sports Radio ninety
two seven w f NZ. Feel free to text in.
Apparently it's been a wild day on the FanDuel text
line seven oh four five seven oh ninety six ten,
seven oh four five seven oh ninety six ten. I
heard that Mack and Bone got some people riled up

(00:51):
about hunting and fishing today. That happened on the text line.
Not exactly sure what happened there. I tried to go
back and look at some of those texts, and I
will say, a fun game for anybody that has access
to the text line. And I know Kyle will do this,
I know Willie, I know every once in a while
I'll do it. Just go back and check it with
no context, not knowing what Mack and Bowen are talking about,

(01:12):
and then see the text flood the fandal text line
the way that they do, because at the end of
the show, all I saw were a bunch of people
talking about Fiddy's dating life and that was quite fun. Oh,
not listening to the radio at all, but just seeing
everybody else have thoughts on Fiddy's dating life, to which
I didn't get any clarity when I asked what was
going on in the side studio, but I am wildly

(01:33):
interested in that.

Speaker 4 (01:36):
Yeah, maybe get some clarity from flat cal baseball jersey.

Speaker 2 (01:39):
Yeah, I know.

Speaker 5 (01:40):
This was actually given to me yesterday by someone that
I didn't know, but then apparently I got told that
it was Who's your Bobby who sent me this?

Speaker 3 (01:50):
So it says flound dog on the back. Okay, yes,
says flound Dogs. To let people in on the secret,
to give the peak behind the curtain, I.

Speaker 2 (02:00):
Just wanted to show Wes that wasn't great radio. I'm
sorry that's a dub shirke though, man, Thank you.

Speaker 5 (02:04):
I appreciate that, and I appreciate Who's your Bobby for
making it for me.

Speaker 3 (02:08):
So the shirt in question, to let everybody know, is
a Carolina baseball looking shirt that seems to be dry
fit that has the fun cursive type writing of Carolina
and then it says flound dog on the back and
flound dog. I'm glad that we got the aw dog
in there too. Puts a little more spice on it,
that's right. Yeah, I like it fine, but I like

(02:28):
flat when I picture spelling flound dog, That's how I
picture it spelled. Who's your Bobby got to write? Just
in my opinion, but to each their own. This is
a block material on WESN Walker right here. This is
the good stuff. This is what you tune in for.
I guess I keep avoiding talking about the panthers, just
like we did yesterday. We had a lot of interviews
to go to that was legitimate a block material discussing

(02:49):
stuff with Charles Lee and Trey Man, awesome interviews. I
can't I can't encourage you enough to go to WFNZ
dot com to click on those interviews and listen to
them either again up those clicks or in case you
missed it. But I guess now's the time to allow
people to vent a little bore and focus on what
we can fix around here. Joe Person has an article
that seems to be the question today. Dave Canal has

(03:11):
talked about that. It's we get angry on them Monday,
and then on a Tuesday west we try to fix it.

Speaker 2 (03:17):
What's the solution?

Speaker 3 (03:19):
And you might be scratching your head a little confused
because you look at the roster and you can't find
any answers as to how to fix this. That might
be the case. I think there are some things the
Panthers can do, of course, but it feels like everybody
is moving on and trying to figure out how in
the world do you fix the Panthers' issues so they
are at least competitive against a bad football team, even

(03:40):
if with they're even with their win last night, at
least competitive against a bad football team in Miami.

Speaker 4 (03:46):
Yeah, and so there are a lot of things that
you want to look at. As I said, the grocery
list keeps growing. And the thing is that I think
one of the most frustrating things for Panthers fans has
to be that some of the guys that you felt
like we're going to be, you know, some of those
things that you felt like we're going to be franchised
main stays that you have questions about as well. When

(04:07):
we talk about the Ikey Aquanus and some of those guys,
and I know for a lot of fans, even the
Bryce Youngs, depending on how this season finishes up. It's like, man,
it feels like as soon as you get a little
bit ahead and you find some of those things at
those premium positions that you need, you're questioning some of
those as well. So it just feels like an endless
list of things that you need to.

Speaker 2 (04:26):
Go out and get.

Speaker 3 (04:27):
Yeah, people writing in seven oh four or five, seven
oh ninety six, ten, we're scrolling hot wheels rights in
the way we fix it is get a new QB
because Bryce ain't it and then everybody else. I do,
I do want the answers from you guys. Let us
know how you think the Panthers can fix it. What
are some things that they can do to make the
product a lot better? On Sundays we'll discuss that as well.

(04:49):
Right now, by pulling up to the scene, opening up
the doors and getting off the bus, we look.

Speaker 2 (04:54):
Good getting off the bus.

Speaker 3 (05:02):
We talked about this a little bit yesterday. Wes and
Joe Person wrote an article about it in The Athletic
titled five ways to fix the Panthers Start with more
aggressive play calling and then he also includes Chewba Hubbard.
I want to talk about the play calling because it's
been a question the entire season. That's what happens when
your offense does nothing against Jacksonville until garbage time, does

(05:22):
nothing until the second half against Arizona where you almost
come back, but you dug yourself way too big of
a hole to come out of it and actually win
that game. It ended up being a fake comeback. You
have the win against Atlanta, but even there, Wes, it
didn't look like the Panthers had a dominant offensive performance,
and they had anything but a dominant offensive performance against

(05:43):
the Patriots. So the offense just isn't clicking. And you're right,
they have wide receiver injuries. That's a real issue. They
have offensive line injuries all over the board. That's a
real issue, and it limits you as a play caller.
I give Dave Canalis that. At the same time, watching
what they did against New Wing, it felt like they
were just going to go down into the quicksand and

(06:04):
not fight to get out of it. That's what it
felt like to me. They liked some of the coverages
that they saw opposite the line of scrimmage when they
drew up those Rico Dawdle draws and then they only
gained two yards. Okay, if you want to create a
scenario where you can go for it on fourth down,
I understand that. But even on a good draw play,
are you picking up eight yards to where it's fourth

(06:26):
and seven. I would like him more manageable fourth down
than fourth and seven, even on what you would deem
a successful run on third and fifteen, third and twelve,
they seem to be very careful wes. And it goes
back to something we saw last year when Dave was
worried about his offense, so careful, being scared of his
QB and really just scared of the situation. I don't
think Dave is all that scared of his QB. I

(06:48):
do think he's scared of the situation, and I think
he's calling plays like it.

Speaker 2 (06:52):
I would agree with you.

Speaker 4 (06:53):
I mean, when you look at the deep passing this season,
passes beyond twenty yards, they have one completion on nine
attempts or eight attempts, only twenty six yards. For an
NFL offense, that's unacceptable. You have to at least try
to get the ball down the field. Now, I know
the Personnelit doesn't necessarily dictate that, but again, yes, a

(07:14):
little bit more aggression would help because at this point
you have to feel like, what do you have to
lose in these games? I mean, you've been blown out
now running that conservative type of offense, that conservative type
of mindset as a coach, and I think now it's
just at the point where you just get out there
and you just let them hang. As they say, I
left out the other part of that, but you just
let them hang, you know, And you have to go

(07:36):
out there and just show your team that you believe
in them a little bit. Because if you're going to
go out on your sword, just go out all the way, because,
like you said, playing scared got you beat down by
New England, so you might as well just try your
best to manufacture points on the board and just empty
the clip every single week.

Speaker 3 (07:51):
Yeah, and not only offensively, could you get a little
more aggressive, but perhaps defensively you could get more aggressive
because Vera is not a guy that likes blitz all
that much. He's blitzing at the twentieth highest rate in
the NFL, so it's in the bottom half and that's
all fine and good. In fact, there are good defenses
that do not like blitzing, because there are some advantages
with a smart quarterback being able to pick you apart

(08:13):
if you don't drop enough guys in coverage. But the
issue is if you have two sacks, to which you
pointed out yesterday West, and it's a huge issue. You're
just not getting enough pressure. How do you manufacture pressure
with edge rushers out and DJ Wadaman Pat Jones and
you weren't all that deep at it anyway, and these
young guys you're just trying to bring along. Prince Yuman
Mielan is a third rounder played in his fourth game,

(08:36):
and Nick Gordon has a second rounder played in his
Was it his third game? Did he miss the opener
either way? I don't think he did. Actually, I think
he played all four. But he still isn't playing enough snaps,
So you have to rely on rookies. And still, yeah,
edge vets, but it's not like they're accumulating ten sax
seasons all across the board. So do you think at
Giero Rivero should be a little more aggressive in his

(08:58):
defensive play calling.

Speaker 4 (08:59):
Man, that's the dangerous part right there, because if you
do decide to do that, you open up a lot.
You expose a lot of flaws when you decide to
start getting blitz happy, because when you look at it,
the Panthers out gained New England. They only give up
three hundred and seven total yards. They give up three
point six on the ground. So the run defense was okay. Now,
this was against a New England team that came into

(09:20):
this game not running the ball very well. Now, the
interesting case is the fact that Drake May was still efficient.
So you say to yourself, Okay, if New England really
needed it from him to really go out there and
go off fourteen of eighteen two or three with a touchdown,
you know, he had the rushing score and two touchdowns passing,
you would think, okay, what does that look like as

(09:42):
far as if he would have really had to go
into his bag just a bit. And that's the thing
that scares you, Like, Okay, if we decided to start blitzing,
we're opening ourselves up to a lot because your linebacker
coverage isn't that great.

Speaker 2 (09:56):
That's the issue. So I'm with you.

Speaker 3 (09:59):
I think still I would like to see more blitzing.
The reason I think that I think you lean into
the strengths of your defense, and I do think coverage,
for the most part, is a strength. I like what
you have in JC and Mike Jackson on the outside.
They've had good seasons to this point.

Speaker 2 (10:14):
Yeah, he did not look good in this game. Yeah,
and that's fair, Like, that's fair.

Speaker 3 (10:18):
I don't think Mike Jackson is a guy that is
such a Pro Bowl corner that you expect him to
be lights out every single contest. But unlike the edge rushers,
Mike Jackson has not been a problem every single game.
Lack of pressure has been a problem every single game.
So you have to pick the lesser of two evils.
And I'm not even thinking Mike Jackson is an evil
at all. I think he's above average who will get

(10:40):
burned every once in a while. So if you lean
into we feel good enough about one corner in JC
and the other corner in Mike Jackson on the outside,
we like Smith Wade enough to help us.

Speaker 2 (10:51):
Out in the slot.

Speaker 3 (10:52):
We're going to get destroyed in the middle of the
field because we don't have any good coverage linebackers. That's
going to be a real issue and we might just
have to live with giving up big plays to tight ends.
It's not like we haven't been allowing that anyway, except
now maybe we can have I don't know, four sacks
a sack a game. Can we get maybe a few
more pressures a game by blitzing and just taking our

(11:13):
losses on some of the middle of the field tight
end targets. There's success on a couple of Yeah, yeah,
you will. Let's be clear, there's not a perfect answer.
I would love to only rush for get adequate enough pressure,
have enough guys in coverage, and that be the thing
that we do to stop opposing offenses.

Speaker 2 (11:32):
That would be fu Yeah.

Speaker 4 (11:34):
Yeah, I mean, but and you're talking about the elite,
the defenses of the league.

Speaker 2 (11:37):
Do that help me? Yeah?

Speaker 3 (11:39):
Okay, what do we do? We got to pick between
the lesser of two evils. The corners I don't think
are evil. I think Mike Jackson is good, not amazing.

Speaker 2 (11:47):
I think J. C.

Speaker 3 (11:48):
Horn has Pro Bowl ability. So let's lean into that,
take our losses and coverage in the middle of the field,
and possibly send a few more rushers to get these
quarterbacks off ballance Man. The one thing I think you
can lean on too is quarterbacks are worse under pressure.
If you look at all the quarterback play under pressure
this year, you have a handful of guys that are

(12:09):
lights out. That's it, like, send pressure at these guys
and they're just by nature worse when there's a free
rusher right in their face. That just lean on the
fact that quarterbacks aren't as good when they have all
that time in the world to sit in the pocket.

Speaker 2 (12:23):
Yeah, I mean, I'm with you, Walker.

Speaker 4 (12:25):
When you get to a point where it's just go
ahead and just let it all hang out, then you
have to try something to try to get some type
of success. If you do decide to blitz, I mean, yeah,
they're gonna pick on seaw Smith, Wade, they're gonna pick
on Mike Jackson. And the problem is that you don't
really have anybody in that front seven that you can
trust to win one on one matchups like that. And

(12:46):
that's why you're sitting there at two sacks right now,
because even when he does blitz, you don't have a guy.
You know, Derek Brown, he's your run stopper, but he's
not a guy that's gonna consistently win one on ones
to be able to get back there to the quarterback. Brinsley,
he's still too young, he's still too raw of a prospect.
He's not going to do a score and showing that
he's not gonna do it, that's the tough part. And

(13:07):
that's where sometimes you know you're gonna have fans who
are gonna say, well, we should have drafted this guy,
that guy on the edge that could maybe help or
win some matchups, or maybe picked up a guy in
free agency on the edge that could win some matchups.
You just don't have anybody that can win one on ones.
But right now, Walker, like you said, you damned if
you do, damned if you don't.

Speaker 3 (13:24):
Yeah, it's still a talent issue. That's the umbrella that
we're speaking under. I'm looking at the available resources. What
can we do right now to fix what we have
going on this season? Or is the Ron rivera sentiment
the answer is on the roster?

Speaker 2 (13:41):
True?

Speaker 3 (13:41):
Here, lots of people are telling me, no, the roster
does not have the answer on it. Let's go to
the fandual text line and get some of these people's answers.
Carolina steven says, we need actual dogs, like Dan Morgan
said we need last offseason. I'm concerned Canalis can't coach
the type of quote unquote dogs we need, and then
he says, leave our mark. We're not leaving a very
good mark. That's not a great slogan right now, it's.

Speaker 2 (14:03):
A brown mark at this point.

Speaker 3 (14:05):
Don't talk Panthers guy says, trade package for Kirk Cousins.

Speaker 2 (14:08):
Oh my god, are you there? Stop it.

Speaker 3 (14:12):
I hope you're okay. Don't talk Panthers guy, because that's brutal.
Winless wa who says new owner. That ain't happening either.
Chubbing at tub says, time to get the smoke, gentlemen.
This Panthers team has no pride, no passion, no visible anger.
I tried to show you something this last game. We
have no dogs aw a quiet coach, a quiet QB,
and a quiet locker room. Somebody, for the love of God,

(14:35):
act angry. Yeah, people have an issue if they don't
see you as angry as they sure, and I get it.
From Chubbing to tub Man, we're all trying to look
for a for answers. I don't know if being angry
is the answer, but we are all trying to look
for answers here. Keep writing in see if you can
fix the Panthers.

Speaker 2 (14:52):
Let us know.

Speaker 3 (14:53):
Seven oh four five, seven nine. Yeah, please do, because
I need to borrow something from a neighbor right now,
I don't have the tools to with this. Panthers team
needs to be fixed. Well, continue more with that, then
I do want to have the Bryce Shown conversation. How
much have we reset our expectations not only on Bryce
this season but on his career? And maybe a better

(15:14):
question for you is have you reset your expectations on
Bryce Young based on what you've watched these first four games?
That's coming up next. WESN Walker Sports Radio ninety two
to seven WFNZ. It's the Dating Hour on Western Walker

(15:35):
Sports wfn C. It's a perfect rejoint song for this
was it was a little viby. It was like, I
think you did find the exact mood we wanted to
hit with that instrumental. It's Western Walker Sports Radio ninety
two to seven WFNZ, broadcasting live from the Channeler vaulta studio.
Fitty walked in. I talked about wanting more clarity on
his dating life because I took a little peak on

(15:58):
the text line this morning, and everybody discussing it themselves
not knowing what Mac and Bone we're talking about, and
so Fiddy. He enlightened us on everything going on, and
it sounded like we had a I am not a
date guru, man, I am not that. But also it
sounds like Fiddy was wild and just a little bit
with the stuff that he was talking about.

Speaker 4 (16:18):
Yeah, man, I mean some of those beginner things that
you got to kind of sort through. Man, when you're
trying to figure each other out. It sounds like that's
what they're at right now. I'm trying to tell her,
you know, different things about him, it's special to him
and that he's gonna want and he's her.

Speaker 2 (16:32):
Trying to figure it out.

Speaker 3 (16:33):
I don't know how you do it, Flounder, I really don't,
because that is a that is an amazing person in
a bunch of different ways.

Speaker 5 (16:41):
Yeah, it's it's a It's a high maintenance fella, There's
no question about it.

Speaker 2 (16:45):
My guy.

Speaker 3 (16:47):
It's yeah, he is amazing, Okay. FanDuel text line seven
four five seven ninety six ten. We're trying to fix
the Carolina Panthers. Big kat Dan says the fact that
Rose Boom is on this roster is also maddening. And
I would say I would amend that. I would say
the fact that rose Boom is on this roster, being
used the way that he is out of necessity is
maddening because I like rose Boom as a player with

(17:09):
what he's supposed to do. Play him at linebacker on
early downs and use him primarily also on special teams,
and have somebody else at linebacker that you can trust
and coverage.

Speaker 2 (17:18):
Cool.

Speaker 3 (17:19):
Nice signing low millions, You're not talking about a ton
of money relatively speaking. That would be great, But we
have to rely on him as the most experienced linebacker
out there playing football. That's the issue. Beloney Burger. Welcome
to being a Jets fan. Welcome to the life of
a Jets fan, who, by the way, is the only
franchise that has a worse record in the David Tepper

(17:41):
era than the Carolina Panthers in the entire NFL.

Speaker 2 (17:44):
Wow. I mean that's last night. They go on four.

Speaker 3 (17:48):
By one game by one game, the Jets have the record. Yeah,
the worst one that is since Tepper bought the team.
Be Bop from Rock Thrill. Oh boy, let's see what
he has to say. We need to trade Andy for
anything and elevate hand hooker. Then we go got a
first headed hooker. Text of the last couple of days.

Speaker 4 (18:04):
I thought we heard about it yesterday before the show started.
I forget what they were talking about, but I know
they were yeah, the show, Yeah Hooker. They think that
Tennessee Hendon Hooker from three four years ago is going to.

Speaker 2 (18:18):
Show up and just be throwing bombs everywhere. That'd be great.
Let's play games in Knoxville, have Josh hip.

Speaker 4 (18:24):
Man and he goes fine for nineteen with three picks,
and you'll be like, next.

Speaker 2 (18:28):
Yeah, then what would that be like?

Speaker 5 (18:30):
Having a quarterback that was great in college but potentially
isn't great in the NFL.

Speaker 2 (18:34):
I wonder what that would feel like.

Speaker 3 (18:35):
I cannot relate. I have no clue what you're talking about.
Wulfpac James says, yeah, there's a talent issue, but even worse,
we have no leadership. Antoine the Mailman says we got
rid of Clowney for what. Willie Stone Stanford p that
Is says, let's play a four to three. These are
all things that are being through.

Speaker 4 (18:52):
I mean they just just spitballing at this point. I
mean put a four to three. I mean, that's not
going to change much because of your personnel. It's bill
mostly for an odd front, but they do go multiple
and do different things.

Speaker 2 (19:04):
But that's not going to help you.

Speaker 4 (19:06):
But I know the fans listen, We ask for your
help and we appreciate it.

Speaker 3 (19:10):
Yet more aggressive play calling. How on board are you?
I don't know if I got a definitive answer, how
on board are you forward?

Speaker 2 (19:16):
More aggressive play calling? I'm certainly for that.

Speaker 4 (19:19):
Hopefully Leget comes back sooner and then once you get Coca,
because I think this offense will look different when Coca
returns and you get Excel back as well too. I
don't think that we've heard one hundred percent the last
of Exceale. He's going to make some plays this year,
you know what I'm saying. It may not be to
the tune of him getting a thousand yards or anything
crazy like that, but just having a younger body that's

(19:40):
athletic out there, you know, that shit be able to help.
But I think that once Coca returns, then you have Tetoro.
If he continues to play at the trajectory that he
is as well, I think it'll look a little different.

Speaker 3 (19:51):
And I know that there's a lot of fans out
there that just don't want to hear this next question.
But I'm going to ask it anyway, what is the
line of pa with Dave Canalis once these guys come
back from injury, giving him a legitimate excuse with all
the injuries that they've suffered, and holding him accountable. What's
the line? Because I know you have been one and

(20:11):
I agree with you for the most part that Hey,
it's going to be really tough. You have Robert Hunt out,
You had your starting center, who I think is worse
than your backup center, but fair enough if your starting
center is also out. You traded Adam thlen because of
some stuff we're going to get to a little bit
later on in the hour. But the Adam Thielen diva
might have been hiding himself here in Carolina. We've got

(20:31):
multiple stories on that, so we're going to get to
that a little bit later. But Adam Thielen was a
productive receiver for you the last couple of years. You
traded him, and then the day after you trade him,
Jalen Cocher hits ir, that's brutal. You have three receivers
you can trust as bad luck as you can have.
Now you have one and you don't even have your
tight end that was showing some promise. This is what

(20:53):
is hard to keep in check because of how bad
it is. And I'm only asking you to think about
it every so often, but I am asking you to
think about it. Those injuries they do matter. So Wes,
I'll ask you again, what is the line of holding
Dave Canalis accountable while also giving him some grace because
of the injuries slash personnel that they've lost.

Speaker 4 (21:12):
I think you can hold him accountable and that you
would like to see at least some type of pulse
As far as aggression is concerned, can you take a
couple of shots per game where you try to do
something while the game is still there to be had.

Speaker 2 (21:25):
I'm here for that.

Speaker 4 (21:27):
Also, can you go into your bag with some gadget
plays because that's the way you can overcome some personnel
as well.

Speaker 2 (21:33):
And I don't like.

Speaker 4 (21:34):
Necessarily calling them gadget plays all the time because it
sounds like little silly stuff, But can you do some stuff?
Can you get interesting with your call as far as
trying to deceive the defense? I think that's a better
way to put it. Can you run some deception type
of plays to where you try to overcome some of
those things as well? To be able to free some
guys up down the field. Can you do some of
those things? I think that could help. So that's where

(21:55):
I hold him accountable. But you know, man, these coaches
that get cute and and they get out there and
they get nervous. They get anxious, and they're thinking about
the absolute worst scenario that could happen on a given play.
They're sitting there, Man, if I call a seven step
drop for Bryce Man and sack fumble, especially when you
have a quarterback too, which I think plays into it
as well. When you talk trust for Bryce Young, is

(22:16):
you know, holding on to the football when it gets sacked.
I'm like, man, if I get this guy beat up
by calling these deep drops, is that gonna hurt us?

Speaker 2 (22:24):
Is he gonna fumble? Like coaches, they can be.

Speaker 4 (22:26):
You do have some coaches that are mavericks that will
get out there and they just say, man, whatever we're
gonna call, We're gonna put our chips in the middle
of the table and just go for what we know.
But then you have a lot of coaches, man, that
get so nervous and they think about the worst case
in there because they're like, Okay, I've already got.

Speaker 2 (22:40):
A team that.

Speaker 4 (22:43):
We've been you know when you think about it, just
as far as not in their mind. That's saying I've
got one of the worst teams in football. But they're like,
I've got a team that's limited in a lot of ways.
So I don't want to hurt us by putting us
in bad positions. I don't want to put us down
fourteen or nothing before we could blink because maybe we
give up a touchdown on an open and drive from
the opposing team and then I call some type of

(23:05):
deep drop where Bryce gets a sacphone. But like Arizona,
Like Arizona, how that game got away from them pretty
quickly early. So I think that they have those fears
that kind of hold them back too.

Speaker 3 (23:14):
Man.

Speaker 4 (23:15):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (23:15):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (23:15):
Coaches that use injuries as an excuse to completely change
what your identity is.

Speaker 2 (23:20):
That's what I have an issue with.

Speaker 3 (23:22):
And I understand being a little more reluctant to call
the same plays with your backups, and you're trying to
hide some of your deficiencies with the backups being in there.
And maybe I'm wrong on this, but what I do
know is that I see bad football when you change
your identity and you change what you do when the
backups do enter. Now, I don't know if those backups

(23:43):
can carry out what you want to do in the
first place. And you might see it in practice and
you realize you can't, but we don't see it in
the game. And this leads leads me to my next point.
I do have an issue with personnel decisions, and you
should trust Dave Canalis. You should trust every head coach
of their football team and making the right choices at

(24:04):
who starts because they see those players, they see him
every single day.

Speaker 2 (24:08):
Cool.

Speaker 3 (24:08):
I get the idea. I'm not saying you should. I
guess maybe the word is I understand. I understand why
you might believe the coaches are right because they see
those players every single day. They're the ones implementing the
game plan. So these are the guys that carry out
my game plan better than the backups and the third
string guys, except we've seen them make mistakes too many times.
In personnel. They cut Jalen Coker straight up. You were

(24:32):
vulnerable with Jalen Coker possibly being picked up by another
NFL team. They didn't. You got lucky on that. Hey,
it takes luck to be a good football team. Sometime.
Nobody should apologize for that. It's okay to be lucky.
Nobody's criticizing you for it, but that's still true. So
you decided to cut Jalen Coker, you got lucky. Bring
him back, and guess what. He's the second best receiver

(24:54):
on your football team last year, better than xavierlely Get,
better than David Moore, better than everybody not aimed Adam Thielen.
So that was a decision. That was a personnel decision.
You got wrong. Brady Christensen doesn't start at right guard.
The reason you said Brady Christensen did not, I shouldn't
say start at right guard, but back up Chandler Savalla.
Which also did you see his PFF grade and pass blocking?

(25:18):
Yeah yeah, man, oh no no, no, no, no, I don't
think you did. You would react differently, do you know?
Guess right now?

Speaker 2 (25:24):
No?

Speaker 3 (25:24):
No, guess yes. I actually just had his grade right
here and keep guessing. It happened again. It happened again,
Charlie Woard fsu it happened again? West seventeen. No oh,
I'm looking at his past block grad. Was it total?

Speaker 2 (25:40):
I thought? No, no, no, no, in this game it's zero.
He got zero again.

Speaker 3 (25:45):
I thought we got over this Tadler because the rookie
year you had a game where you got a zero
pass blocking grade and we were shocked. I had never
seen it. It happened again. I hate to stay it too.

Speaker 2 (25:56):
Man.

Speaker 4 (25:56):
When I saw him get up from that end, wrote Sunday,
and I was just looking at him, I say, he's
got to be one of the softest looking offensive lineman
I've ever seen in my life.

Speaker 2 (26:06):
Oh man, I hate that I did. Man.

Speaker 4 (26:08):
So he just looks like a guy that you know,
just out there. He just wants to have fun and
get his ass whip. Sounds like a great time.

Speaker 3 (26:20):
If you're getting that kind of money to have fun
and then get your ass whipped, then so be it.
I'd probably do it for the same amount of money.
But boy, oh boy.

Speaker 2 (26:29):
Well not a glowing review.

Speaker 3 (26:32):
But this is the point. Chandler Zavalla has shown us
this before. He has received a zero pass blocking grade before,
and yet still you decided to start him over Brady
Christensen and then he goes down with an injury. You
decided to go with Brandon Walton, who diehard Panthers fans
didn't know. The reason was because you didn't want Kate
May's to get hurt and not have an answer at
center cool. Who has the best PFF grade and who

(26:53):
looked legitimately good, just throw the advanced metrics away. Who
looked good once they entered the game. It was Brady Christiansen,
who continues to play decent football and yet not get
the benefit of the doubt from the coaches. So all
of that to say i's offensive grade, that's the point.
That's all to say personnel issues. I have an issue

(27:14):
with who you're playing over other guys. Lathan Ransom continues
to be an issue for me. No, Lathan Ransom wasn't great,
But are you gonna point to Nick Scott and say
he was so much better that we had to play.
We'd have a choice, we had to play Nick Scott.
I have an issue with personnel.

Speaker 4 (27:27):
Well, that's the thing sometimes man, with these coordinators, when
you hire them, it's like, are you really ready for
the job?

Speaker 2 (27:34):
Is the job too big for you?

Speaker 4 (27:35):
I'm not saying those are the things there, but when
you talk about decisions like personnel and all of these
different things, it all goes into the pot. When you
talk about a great head coach, does he know who
to play, when to play him, does he know personnel
well and some of those things, and so some of
those faults that you bring up, Obviously nobody's going to
be one hundred percent on personnel because of that. With

(27:58):
a case, then that head coach will win I don't
know how many super Bowls and just consistently win all
of the time. But yeah, when you see head scratching
decisions like that, and you see guys coming in that
weren't playing that do play and then end up playing
better than their starter counterparts, then you do question that
a little bit.

Speaker 3 (28:17):
You do, especially when you start losing games, and you
lose games this badly, that's the issue. Also, when you
start losing by eighteen on average, that's when we start
to question everything that you do. And you deserve to
be questioned. And so does Bryce Young, which a lot
of fans are. They're questioning whether he's the franchise guy.
This is the question I really wanted to get to

(28:39):
for people. Have you reset your expectations for Bryce Young?
And if you have, what are they now? This is
what I'm starting to get a little great about. Here,
wes other quarterbacks that figure it out like a Sam
Darnold like a Baker Mayfield. It happens two to three
stops down the road. And it's not just because of
the talent in those other cities. Even though that's a

(29:01):
tenable situation. In a tenable situation matters, we have to
give credence to the opposite of that at previous stops.
An untenable situation also matters. So when those quarterbacks they
go play at a different level with those other franchises.
Sam Donold's first year in Minnesota, he balls out. Baker
Mayfield's first year in Tampa, he balls out. Gino Smith's

(29:23):
first year is a full time starter. In Seattle, they
saw forty two hundred yards and thirty touchdown passes Daniel Jones.
The list goes on and on. It happens the first
year with those other teams. So those teams don't have
to be patient. I don't need to be patient at all.
First year, we're getting four thousand yards from these guys
that are reclamation projects. Hell yeah, baby, I'll take it
all day long. And the thing about reclamation projects and

(29:44):
the way that they become successful is for a few reasons,
starting from the very beginning. It's acknowledging your quarterback is
the issue, it's acknowledging the team around him as the issue,
or it's a split between both. But what usually happens
regardless of that reason, Wes is the quarterback has to
move on man. And that's what I'm worried about. Regardless
if the QB is the issue, if the team around
him is the issue, or if it's a split right

(30:06):
down the middle and fifty percent blame here, fifty percent
blame there, what happens is those guys don't figure it
out with the team that drafted him. They have to
figure it out somewhere else. Even if it's not Bryce
s Young's fault because Sam Donald playing well, Baker Mayfield
playing well. But do you think Baker Mayfield would have
balled out with Cleveland this way, with the team that

(30:29):
they have around him.

Speaker 2 (30:30):
I don't think so.

Speaker 3 (30:31):
Sam Donald, was he going to do that, what he's
doing in Minnesota, what he's doing in Seattle. Here in Carolina,
I don't think so. The Jets his original team, his
original team. The answer to that question is hell. Now,
So that that's my worry with Bryce, I'm not here
yet and saying we need to move on because quite frankly,
I think that you can win with Bryce Young in

(30:52):
the NFL.

Speaker 2 (30:52):
I do.

Speaker 3 (30:53):
But my issue is, I wonder if it's going to
happen here with the way that things are trending right now.

Speaker 4 (30:58):
Now I've already told you how the or he's gonna
end Panther fans once again, as I said, they sit
there and they look at the picture of Sam Donald
and Baker Mayfield together and you're like, man, we had
both of those guys in the building. They are now
on greener pastors and playing really well. It's all about
competence of your organization. How well do they draft, you know,
these are the basic things you look at. For example,

(31:21):
Daniel Jones, he comes from New York, New York at
a time now they are one of the more stable
organizations as far as you know, how they've won and
different things. But they hit a pack like all time,
no I'm saying that, Okay, let me cook.

Speaker 2 (31:35):
So they hit a patch where they.

Speaker 4 (31:37):
Seem incompetent, where things aren't as stable as they used
to be. They bring in ghettlement and different things, and
they don't draft well. They don't draft well. Let the
offensive line position, so the old line is bad. He
doesn't have the type of receivers that he needs. All
he has is Saquon Barkley, and so your fans you
look at him and he comes out and he can't
really do much with that, and you're like, oh, what's

(31:58):
wrong with this guy. Now you go to the the Coats.
The Coats have PFF's number four ranked offensive line coming
into this week. You've got Jonathan Taylor in the backfield,
one of the best backs, probably the most underrated running
back in the league during his time, and all the
guy does is run for twelve hundred and thirteen fourteen
fifteen hundred yards rushing. He's got receivers to throw to,

(32:19):
He's got a great offensive mind as far as Shane
Steichen is concerned. And now you see the results of
what he's doing. When you get stability. These fans they
don't see it. They think that Bryce Young is supposed
to come out there, as I said, and be David
Copperfield and turn everybody into just these all pro yellowjacket
type of guys. And it's not gonna happen. He's got

(32:42):
to have more talent around him, and they're not gonna
learn until it's too late. Like I said, I told
you how this is gonna go. He's gonna go somewhere
else where there's plenty of talent and there's competence around him,
and he's gonna shine, and they're gonna get Leonor's sellers
in here, and then he's gonna go through the same thing,
and the fans are gonna be talking about how trash
he is.

Speaker 2 (33:00):
Is.

Speaker 3 (33:00):
The issue is it doesn't mean that the Panthers would
be wrong even if Bryce Young balls out somewhere else,
because it doesn't mean that that was going to happen here.
So I think ultimately that's the simple question you have
to ask, is it going to happen here? And if
you think no, then you can't worry about what he
does in Minnesota or Tampa Bay or Seattle.

Speaker 2 (33:19):
You can't.

Speaker 3 (33:20):
You have to make the best decision for your football
team right now, and time is a real thing. Think
about what you do if you have a four win
season this year and Bryce Young is your starting quarterback
and then you come out in the offseason and say
Bryce is still our starting quarterback going in to twenty
twenty six, fans aren't going to like it. It's running
into the same issue over and over and over again.

(33:42):
And it's not like Bryce has been ballin'. Bryce has
had issues separate from the issues that surround him right now.
Like he's been under a decent amount of pressure. It's
not a crazy amount compared to forty percent last game
last game, but on the season, he's still about it.
Compared to all the other quarterbacks. According to Pro Football Focus,

(34:02):
with what the offensive line is responsible for, Bryce Young
is still responsible for some of his own pressures because
he's a playmaker. You see some of these dual threat
quarterbacks try to play make and extend plays and if
they get sacked, that's on them.

Speaker 2 (34:18):
But Bryce Young is kind of that.

Speaker 3 (34:21):
He's in the top third of most responsibility for his
own sacks in the league. So like, there are still
some things that he's doing to make not a great
situation worse at times.

Speaker 2 (34:33):
He's not the biggest issue. He's not.

Speaker 3 (34:35):
I think you can win with Bryce. But the other
thing is, man, are we really saying that you have
to have the fourth best offensive line in the league
for it to work for him like it does with
Daniel Jones. Same thing with some of these other quarterbacks.
Because I look at Seattle. Seattle's got a good football team,
but man, I don't know if it's perfect up there,
And those are some of my questions.

Speaker 4 (34:55):
Yeah, I mean, you look at an organization like Seattle
dilling yet they have their times with their a little
skittish as well, but for the most part, you feel
like that's an organization that makes sound decisions from a
personnel standpoint. They hire pretty good coaches. I mean, Mike
McDonald's coach, coming off of Pete Carroll, who was a
really good coach for them. And so because Seattle's offensive
line twenty fourth in the league, not great, They've got

(35:17):
some injuries at the center and right guard spots as well.

Speaker 2 (35:20):
I don't think things.

Speaker 3 (35:21):
Need to be but to be clear, just real quickly,
that's my point is that Sam Donald, now after figuring
it out, doesn't need everything to be.

Speaker 5 (35:28):
Sam's better, Sam's better than than Bryce.

Speaker 4 (35:32):
But Sam's also got weapons. Now, let's not get it twisted.
He's got Jackson Smith and Jig, but he's got Cooper
cub He's got Kenneth Walker like he's got guys.

Speaker 3 (35:40):
Well, yeah, Cooper cup looks is better. He's probably his
Adam feeling.

Speaker 2 (35:47):
Is that fair?

Speaker 3 (35:48):
Yes, and that's the white receiver white receiver comparison. But
just stick with me, what is the slot you know,
same type of role. Jameson is an absolute dog, so
he's got his number one, but it's not it's not amazing.
I guess that's it's not amazing, but markedly better than
what's here. And Sam Donald is playing like an MVP
with a good team around him, not amazing. That's my point.

(36:13):
Do we need Bryce to have everything perfect around him?
Because he yes, we gotta lay a lot of the
stuff at his feet too, maybe not a lot. We
gotta lay some stuff at his feet. Do you think
Bryce has played good football this year? Because I would
tell you no, I do not think he's played good football.
I don't think he's playing good football.

Speaker 4 (36:30):
But I'm also great on a turf because I just
don't feel like he has what he needs aim around him.

Speaker 3 (36:35):
And if he doesn't, my last question on this is
if Daniel Jones can figure it out with the requisite talent,
does that mean that there's a separation between Daniel Jones
and Bryce Young. I mean, I'll go ahead, well, well,
that's if Daniel Jones has been playing well. Sam Donald
Baker Mayfield, all these other quarterbacks, the reclamation projects that
we've already gone through all of it, right, Does that
mean that Bryce is better than those guys?

Speaker 2 (36:58):
Now? He's not that right?

Speaker 3 (37:00):
What's the separation then? Could the Panthers truly just figure
out the situation move on from Bryce? Have a typical
whatever quarterback in that system, but because the situation around
them is better than any quarterback can flourish.

Speaker 4 (37:16):
I you know, as far as the talent issues and
stuff like that, like, no, the situation matters very much
because it's one thing to not have the perfect situation,
but it's one thing to go out there. You're basically
playing with one arm tie behind your back and one
leg Because I've got one receiver that I can count
on a throw to. That changes the whole calculus of
how the defense is gonna play me. If I don't

(37:38):
have anybody else to threaten them. If I'm not throwing
it deep, the defense is gonna sit on my routes
all the time because they know I'm throwing short all
They're gonna be all So I can't do anything. So
how can you see my talent or what I can
do when I'm severely limited He's not just limited, he's
severely limited. If I'm Danie Jones, I've got Michael Pittman,
I've got Tyler Warren, I've got Josh Damn. I've got

(38:00):
Jonathan Taylor. I've got a top five offensive line. I've
got a pretty good defense. So I've got a lot
of things to help me so that if I do
have a bad series or two, I know the defense
can probably get me to ball back. I've got guys
that I know that can win on their routes. Even
Ady Mitchell, he's out there making plays as well. He's
got plenty around It was stupid as far as running

(38:20):
into the end zone, but he's still made to catch
and run. But I'm just saying he's got plenty around
him to help him flourish. Bryce has next to nothing,
But I'm not disagreeing with that. My point is, then,
how can can we say Bryce is better than Daniel
or can we say that all you got to do
is get a good situation, then you can plug a
quarterback in. That's what's the difference between Daniel Jones and

(38:42):
Bryce Young. It's their situation.

Speaker 3 (38:44):
So if the Panthers fix their situation, then Bryce can
be here and that would be great, or you can
bring in anybody and it would be great, which then
means there's not a separation between Bryce and these other
quarterbacks that we just mentioned, And that's my point. We
can get back to it. Seven oh four to five,
seven oh ninety six.

Speaker 4 (39:03):
Ten.

Speaker 3 (39:03):
Let me know about the Fandel text line, the answers
that you have on it, seven oh four to five,
seven oh ninety six ten. More to come here in
the twelve o'clock hour onst In Walker Sports Radio ninety
two to seven WFNZ. People writing in on the Fandel
text line about the Bryce Young conversation again seven oh
four five, seven oh ninety six ten we have we're scrolling.

Speaker 2 (39:25):
I just thought I had it.

Speaker 3 (39:26):
Oh, Scooter in Huntersville says Fellas, that was the best
segment breaking down the Panthers as a whole in Bryce's situation.
I've heard this season outstanding. Well, thank you, Scooter, I
love the name. We think you are outstanding. And then
Bigcat Dan also writes in Walker has me lost and
West told me he was a little confused. So that's
my fault. I'm not articulating that. Well, I guess here's
my point. When we when we talk about situation versus QB,

(39:49):
because that's always that's an age old debate, is that
the quarterbackers at the situation. You pay a lot of
money to starting quarterbacks in the NFL, it's a lot.
You pay a lot of money to positions and players
that are good and directly affect winning. So if we
think the situation matters the most, if we think situation

(40:11):
is more conducive to winning than quarterbacks, because the situation
has to be good around you, right, That's what the
argument is. Daniel Jones is doing it with a good situation,
Sam Donald, Baker, Mayfield, all the usual suspects that I
just brought up. What those teams have done is they've
paid the offensive line a bunch of money, They've paid

(40:33):
wide receivers a bunch of money. They've made sure they've
shored up their defense, and then they saved a little
bit at QB. They saved a little bit with Tino
Smith being thirty two years old and never working out.
They did the same thing with Daniel Jones. Sam Donald
wasn't making a lot of money, nor was Baker. When
he goes to Tampa, guess what kind of decision you
got to make on Bryce Man. You got to make
a big boy contract decision. And if Bryce can't win

(40:55):
in this current situation, guess what you've just done. When
you give him fifty million, You've made it a lot
harder to put the requisite talent around him by giving
them all that money to a guy that we're saying
needs a good situation in order to win. I don't
know if I can justify paying Bryce Young, who were

(41:18):
discussing needs a good situation to win. If the money
I paid Bryce directly affects him not having a good
team around him, That's what I think the Panthers might
find themselves in as soon as they go back and
forth on the negotiating team.

Speaker 4 (41:31):
Well, I think this is where the separation comes with
front offices, because look at what the Chiefs did. I
was watching a documentary about the Chiefs. You look at
Patrick Mahomes when he was putting up crazy MVP numbers.
He had Tyreek Hill, he had Travis Kelsey, all that stuff. Now,
when they decided to pay Pat Mahomes, then things changed.

(41:52):
You had to trade a Tyreek Hill, You had to
get rid of some guys that could help you on offense.
Some linemen and different things like that. Right now, I
gotta start drafting a little bit better. But you've seen
over the last couple of years, Mahomes hasn't been able
to put up some of those gaudy stats that he
once did because he doesn't have the requisite offensive help
around him that he once had. And so what the

(42:12):
Chiefs have done, though, is because they've drafted so well.
You drafted the McDuffie's, you drafted the Carloftus's and some
of those guys. They're hitting on those picks that have
replenished that talent, because that's the thing you've got to
be adept that once you pay a quarterback is finding
the chief talent aka the rookies, now Carolina could put
themselves in a little bit of a better situation because

(42:33):
now with Bryce's numbers and how this thing could turn out,
he comes to the negotiation, you can't come asking me
for fifty million because you haven't put up the requisite
numbers to be able to do so. And you can't
try to come to the table and be like, well,
you guys haven't put the talent around me to do this,
because if you did, I would have done that.

Speaker 2 (42:49):
Now you got to pay me fifty Now you don't
have to do that.

Speaker 4 (42:50):
They might be able to get away with paying him
thirty million for a couple of years while they are
able to replenish the roster. But all I was saying
in the last segment is that the situation matters. That
when people talk about Bryce this and Bryce that and
holding a ball, and I said, like when you get
into game situations, and I'll walk you guys through this.
But what I was saying is like, if I come
up to the line and I know it's cover one,

(43:11):
it's man coverage, and I'm playing for the Colts and
I'm Daniel Jones, I know, all right, Michael Pittman, I've
been watching tape. This corner's trash. He gonna smoke this guy.
So I know he's running a slant. So as soon
as pre snap post snap, I know what the coverage is. Boom,
I'm hearting Michael Pittman. He might house it, but he
might get me fifteen yards. I know, Okay, this is
cover three. My slot's running an in breaking route. He's

(43:32):
going to be able to do this because I know
he's gonna win this matchup, or I know from my
film study that my guy's going to be able to
make this playoff his guy, or you see things like
in the Dallas game, look at what Dak Prescott was
doing with George Pickens when all failed. He said, I'm
throwing this moon ball up because I know this is
what George Pickens specialized in, and he has a guy
that he knows can go and do that. I'm right, Shung,

(43:53):
I come up to the line. Okay, let's just say
they roll the coverage to Taylor row aside. He's out
of the play now he's done. My second third, four
three's are not guys that are gonna get open like that.
So that I'm sitting there like, oh my god, oh
my god, oh my god, what am I gonna do?
And I've got three seconds to be able to execute
this probably less because the offensive line isn't that good.
And then by the time I figure out, okay, where

(44:13):
I might want to go with the ball, I'm getting
hit because I don't have the guys. But if I
have two to three guys that I know, once Coker
comes back, I know, okay, pre snap boom, Cocer's gonna
cook this guy on this route right here, I already
know this is what's gonna happen. Offense is gonna look
markedly better when you got guys you know can win,
because then once I snap the football, I know, all right,
I'm going here with the ball because I already know

(44:34):
this matchup is one that's advantageous for us. But when
you don't have guys that can do that, it makes
it just look so so bad.

Speaker 3 (44:42):
So completely agree with you on the saving money with
Bryce thing. If you can save money on Bryce, then
I'll shut up. And I, by the way, I don't
want Bryce to go. I think you have to start
Bryce every single game this season. I'm not here for
Andy Dalton. What are we doing? Why what I want
to product? What do we need to do with Andy Dalton?

Speaker 2 (45:02):
Right?

Speaker 5 (45:03):
You need to figure out the answer of whether or
not you got a quarterback or not.

Speaker 3 (45:06):
So if Bryce Young can be had for whatever less
than forty million, I don't know that contract negotiation back
and forth will be interesting. But the winning versus the
stats thing that you brought up, You're right, Pat Mahomes.
Those numbers did go down and they still won. And
Pat you never watched any games and thought Pat is
he's lost it.

Speaker 2 (45:25):
He's think he lost it, But you was like, this
offense isn't the same.

Speaker 3 (45:29):
No, it's not the same, and yet they still did
enough to win because Pat Mahomes is awesome, right.

Speaker 2 (45:33):
And then defense was awesome. Yeah, no, it is.

Speaker 3 (45:36):
Yeah, but Pat, but the independent of that, right, like
Pat is fantastic. Forget about everything else. You watch an
offense where old Travis Kelcey is your best weapon. Still,
Pat Mahomes looks like a top five quarterback in the league.
So we don't even need to go with Bryce and
Pat because that's not a fair comparison, right, Pat's different.

(45:58):
How can Bryce win if the situation around him isn't
good even And if so, my point is, are you
going to pay him a lot of money and take
money out of the other positions? And you're right, it
does matter about drafting. Well, you do have to get
a better receiver. You do have to get all of
this stuff to help Bryce, no doubt about it, or
any other quarterback there. But if you pay him a

(46:21):
decent amount of money, that's going to be the issue.
If you can save money, then I'm with you. My
last question is if Jalen Coker comes back and it
doesn't get all that much better, then what do we
do there? Because at that point, you have an offensive
line that you still poured a lot of money into,
and you have Jalen Coker and Tmac on the outside,

(46:43):
and if they stay healthy and you still have an
offense look in the way that it is, what do
we do with Bryce at that point?

Speaker 4 (46:49):
Well, then you start to have some answers. But I
just don't think that's going to be And that might
be fair.

Speaker 3 (46:53):
If your elite stat being trapped the number one overall
is processing, then I would like to be able to
process better than everybody else because you were lead in
situations that call for elite processing. And I don't think
that I've seen elite processing from Bryce, even in a
hard situation. Undoubtedly it's been difficult, But isn't this where
you're supposed to be showcasing the elite quality that you possess.

Speaker 4 (47:17):
Not necessarily because if I, if I don't have guys
that can't win, it doesn't matter how much.

Speaker 2 (47:22):
I can process.

Speaker 3 (47:23):
So I guess it just doesn't matter. Then no, it matters.

Speaker 4 (47:26):
But if I don't have guys that can win, it
don't like I guess you're saying like, if I don't
have guys that can win, I can be it's it's
quarterbacks are gonna miss throw?

Speaker 3 (47:36):
Well, yeah, but he's missing. He's past Sunday.

Speaker 4 (47:41):
He missed a few throws and now everybody's like, oh,
he's miss his throws all the time. He wasn't missing
throws against Arizona, he was earlier, and then in Jacksonville
he definitely was. We admitted that as much, and.

Speaker 3 (47:53):
Then against Atlanta we talked about how he wasn't all
that impressive because he didn't need to be because the
defense showed up and I was cool with it. But
where have been the wow moments from Bryce?

Speaker 2 (48:02):
Second half? Arizona had some Yeah, that's the thing. I'm saying,
you can't wow what this person?

Speaker 4 (48:08):
You just can't. You can't dog, you put my homes
with this offense. He trash like Drake may gave me
some mahone's gonna do with this offense. Oh that's yeah,
that's all just like Bryce does some of these guys
back around all right, Okayames, No, he ain't went on
with this group dog this offensive line and these receivers.

Speaker 2 (48:30):
He ain't winning with that. He's not.

Speaker 3 (48:32):
I saw Drake may give me some wild plays with
the Patriot. May got Stefan Diggs.

Speaker 4 (48:35):
He's got some guys, man, Stephan Diggs had a hundred yards.

Speaker 2 (48:39):
But what about before that? What you mean, what about
before the hundred yard game?

Speaker 3 (48:43):
Boot he had one hundred yard games. I'm saying that
he had a one hundred yard game. I know what
you're saying. Does that just is that all you need
to be good? I'm just saying that he that. Don't
trying to margin alliwne what I'm saying. I'm saying that
he has the guys here that make plays for him.
Bryce does not have that.

Speaker 4 (49:00):
So he's going to making plays in Carolina Sola? Who
else is making play? T Mac is making plays? Cuba
is a good running running back.

Speaker 3 (49:09):
You've told me that a million times, Okay, and so
who in a passing game is making plays one hundred?
Renfrol makes some plays for you a little bit. You're
the receivers aren't good. The receivers aren't good. I say,
Drake may make plays without receivers are very good. The
low average receivers outside of tenoro seven oh four five
seven ninety six ten. You can let us know how
you feel we'll go to the campus corner.
