There is a line of demarcation between how fans of the Carolina Panthers felt about the Bryce Young-led offense and the Andy Dalton-led offense under Dave Canales. Largely, that line as created by obvious differences in production and it blurred yesterday with what we are all desperately hoping was an uncharacteristically unproductive performance by Dalton against the Chicago Bears. It doesn’t help that this came one week after fan confidence began surging and we all hailed the advent of a “modern NFL offense” to the Carolinas.
The Panthers started out the game bad. Then they got aggressively more injured than they already were.
