It's a good thing we were playing a 1-11 team.

In a 28-6 win, the Panthers had about 100 more yards of offense than we did, and by and large it wasn't a situation where they were playing from way behind. If you take out AT Perry's long catch, they'd have close to double our yardage. And yes I know yards can be misleading, but it still can be indicative of problems.

Turnovers have a way to skew stats like that. We need more of those types of turnovers.

We did what we were supposed to do against a 1-11 team.
Still giving up too many rushing yards
Ugly win
Grade C+

…..and Bryce still performed better that Carr.

What?! Not sure what game you were watching. Bryce Young couldn't come close to his receivers. He finished the game with a 48.0 passer rating. Carr had a very respectable 88.5 rating. They each had one turnover. Young was sacked four times. Carr once. Young was 13 for 36 (36.1%) passing. Carr was 18 for 26 (69.2%). Carr had two passing TD's. Young had zero. Not only was Young outplayed by Carr, but he was outplayed by a huge margin. Not even close. Several of the few Panthers' fans in attendance were booing Young in the 4th quarter.

Sounds like Carmichael's decision of not activating Graham earlier is becoming an issue.

Bryce didn’t offer a performance worthy of booing. Young being allowed to escape the pocket continued keep multiple drives alive.
Carr has always put up MVP type numbers, while playing like garbage.
There was a stretch in the game where benching Carr wasn’t totally out of the question.
