Bryce Young set a franchise record yesterday for passing yards and he did it on the road against the Atlanta Falcons. After a season of struggling to move the ball through the air, that felt good to watch.
Young’s ascendance would make an excellent storyline through the holidays as he spurs a nationally overlooked team into the playoffs and towards their predestined Super Bowl berth. However, as Panthers fans, we understand that false starts are more common in the Carolinas than storybook endings. This wouldn’t be the first time that Young got tongues wagging with a stellar performance against the Atlanta Falcons, only to follow it up with a complete dud.
Still, what we saw yesterday is more in line with what we hoped to see from Young to start this season. He had multiple quality performances after he was benched in 2024 and what drives the difference between “Good Bryce” and “Bad Bryce” is highly unclear. So let’s run a quick poll and see where the community stands today.
Do you think the Young we saw yesterday versus Atlanta was a sign of good things to come or just another example of fool’s gold under center for the Carolina Panthers?
