Young showed a level of play that has rarely been seen outside of Atlanta...It's the kind of performance he was drafted to have routinely. Instead, it has proved very much the exception. Showing that exception in a season opener—a game that Young has traditionally bombed in— provides fresh hope that he has turned the proverbial corner.

Young's Week 1 explosion offers fresh hope he's turned the corner after historic underperformance.

Young's Week 1 performance against the Bears (highest-scoring game in NFL history) marked only the second time in his career he has scored more than 44 points in a game, matching his 2024 season finale against Atlanta. The source notes this is the kind of performance he was drafted to have routinely, and that showing this exception in a season opener—a game Young has traditionally underperformed in—provides fresh hope he has turned a corner. 41% of Panthers fans believe this will prove to be an average to below-average performance, suggesting most are optimistic about Young's trajectory this season.
