Yes, Week 1 sucked in a lot of ways. Not, the season isn’t lost after just one game. The time between Week 1 and Week 2 is prime for overreactions based on faulty first impressions. That said, this is the second time in the two years that Dave Canales has been working with Bryce Young and the Carolina Panthers that both the quarterback and the team as a whole have opened the season looking flat.
I. for one. retain some optimism for the season, but you don’t have to spend long in either the first or second half game threads from Sunday to recognize that a 26-10 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars would have a lot of fans expecting an eighth consecutive losing season.
That leads us to two questions for this week’s survey. First, our standard confidence question. Once again, this is not a question asking if you think the Panthers will win this weekend against the Arizona Cardinals. This is a question asking about your opinion about the long term prospects of the franchise as a whole. Think of it as a referendum on the leadership of general manager Dan Morgan and head coach Dave Canales.
Second, having slept on his performance in Week 1, have you given up on Bryce Young as the Panthers starting question? This is a straight yes or no question. If you have any hope left for the guy then please answer yes. If you’re ready to run him out of town to Indianapolis then please answer or no.
