The Carolina Panthers suffered a tough 16-13 loss to the Chicago Bears on Sunday, and quarterback Bryce Young shouldered much of the blame for the team’s offensive struggles. Young, who was making his first career start, completed just 17 of his 33 pass attempts for 165 yards and one touchdown. He also threw two interceptions, including one in the fourth quarter that sealed the Bears’ victory.
Young was under pressure all game long, as the Bears defense sacked him four times and forced him into numerous bad throws. He also struggled to find open receivers downfield, and his accuracy was off at times. Despite these struggles, Young showed flashes of potential throughout the game and was able to move the offense at times.
Young’s performance was far from perfect, but it’s important to remember that he is a rookie and this was his first career start. He will undoubtedly learn from this experience and improve in the future. It’s also worth noting that the Panthers’ offensive line struggled to protect Young, allowing four sacks and numerous pressures.
Overall, Young shouldered much of the blame for Carolina’s offensive struggles in the 16-13 loss to Chicago. However, it’s important to remember that he is a rookie and this was his first career start. He will undoubtedly learn from this experience and improve in the future. The Panthers’ offensive line also needs to do a better job of protecting Young if they want to have success on offense moving forward.
