Comparing a 36yo to a 23yo is goofy. Panthers didn't develop Dalton, and the fact that their game plan worked for a 6'2" vet with 164 career starts and 3 pro bowls doesn't mean it will work for a 5'10" virtual rookie.
Personally, I don't think Bryce Young was ever a top-level NFL prospect like that. But no quarterback should be judged on what they do thrown into the fire too young on a shytty team, and whatever a vet like Dalton happens to do in the same situation is irrelevant. If Trey Lance or Zach Wilson had been the backup succeeding in the same situation, then that would be a different story.
