Tampa is playing single high safety with every other player within 8 yards of the LOS. It really is a testament to Darnold and the offensive line to get the protections right and deliver an accurate ball with the pocket really collapsing around you each snap. Darnold living up to that 3rd overall pick. I think he's now at 8 or 9 touchdowns to 1 interception and probably a 124 passer rating this year. Amazing what not having a crutch like CMC can do to a team like this. Run and gun baby.

Darnolddddd...LFG boys and girls.

And waste yet another pick. We already have Corral with a 3rd and 4th round pick. Those would be wasted as would the picks we gave up for Darnold. The picks for Teddy and Baker are already a loss. Then you draft yet another guy? To presumably replace a guy playing like a Top 3 pick in his 5th year? 5 years in NFL life used to be nothing for a QB. Darnold played for ADAM GASE and MATT RHULE, two of the four worst coaches of the past 10 years in the NFL. You draft Mayer and Hyatt to give you a true superstar tight end and 3rd receiver who can get DJ Moore one on one coverages and go with Darnold and Corral.

I'm telling y'all, we don't need to take a QB in the first 4 rounds. Darnold finally got to sit, now has a competent staff, and he is cooking.

Darnold playing like a number three overall pick in his 5th year now. That was a masterclass from the OC to the OL, to the QB. Best Panthers drive I've seen in a long time.

This is probably the most excited I've been for a Panthers game since...2018? 2019? Didn't care for Rhule, the team didn't seem to care either. The energy is back. Greg Olsen not being able to hide his Panthers Fandom in the opening discussions with a smile when the Panthers and Wilkes possibly making the playoffs was talked about. Win or lose, I think we should all take a moment to appreciate the fact that Wilkes has given us, and the staff and yes...Sam Darnold...meaningful January football.

Have you watched him? He's garbage. There were signs with Josh Allen including his ability to actually hit those deep shots, off platform dart throws to a point, etc. I've seen absolutely none of that from Richardson. It's akin to taking Zach Wilson for me. You see his potential and ignore the bad things. Yall wanna waste a first round pick on a project when we already have one in Corral, go ahead. I guess I'll ride but I'm going to bitch the whole way so you better turn the radio up.

Because we ran...for 320 yards...and have the 4th best rushing offense in the league since Christian left... We aren't limiting his use. We are maximizing our running game and offensive line and there are a fixed number of snaps per game. You're reading the situation wrong, as is typical here.

If we draft Anthony Richardson for anything other than a TE conversion I quit. Dude can't hit the ocean if he fell out of a damn boat. No. He's not Josh Allem v 2.0.

I'd take Darnold before I'd trade yet more picks for another QB.

What QB is worth it beyond Young and Stroud? If you draft a QB after them you're still in the "throwing poo at the wall to see what sticks". The Panthers NEED to go BPA in the first round which likely is Mayer at our draft position. We need a tight end, desperately. We need a third receiver who can take the top off a defense, desperately. You take Mayer and you take Hyatt. You've sent 9 draft picks away since 2019 to QB's and a few of them may have landed with Darnold so see where your investment stands before you sell at a loss just to buy another loser QB in Levis or Anthony Richardson.

Someone tell this man to GTFO of the front office before we make another mistake. Build out the core of the roster and then worry about QB. If we get a serviceable OC, draft an elite tight end and 3rd receiver, Darnold will be much, much better than Levis. Leave it alone TEPPER. Mayer and Hyatt in rounds 1 and 2. I watch a lot of college football and the only dudes after Stroud and Young are depth pieces. I may even throw Sam Hartman a lifeline in the 6th round before I'd consider Levis. Finish building the roster, if Sam can't cut it with these guys, then move along. Dudes playing his best ball in this formula and of course Tepper would want to go changing poo.

You think CMC was a bigger supporter of Rhule than he was of the organization? It always seemed forced to me, anytime he said something nice about Rhule.

Who talks about 2015 like it was yesterday? How old are you? 7 years isn't really all that long, honestly.

He was great with Steve Wilks in the past. He's old, but was never all that fast to begin with. Probably better than the options already on the team though. This whole season has been weird so...LFGGGGG Bring on the weirdness.

His two head coaches have been ADAM GASE and MATT RHULE. Arguably two of the worst NFL head coaches since the year 2000. If you put him in Los Angeles with the Rams what would mcvay get out of him? Dude could probably win a Super Bowl and look elite doing it. The issue isn't Darnold. And since you're an expert, who do you propose we draft to replace him? How many picks do you suppose we send to San Fransisco for a guy with the same problems in Jimmy G? There are no free agent QB's who will be better and no one we can draft will have a higher ceiling. Unless you want Anthony...barf...Richardson. Or worse...Will Levis... We need to a build a team and see what Darnold can do with quality tight ends, a quality 3rd receiver, and a competent (the first of his career) coaching staff. The thing about starting 3-0 last year was our offense was built around CMC. Now our offense is far more generic and is not reliant on a single player to work, thus this streak is not an anomaly like that was. We aren't replacing Darnold because we shouldn't. There is no one out there we can get, or should get, who is going to be better in the short or long term, especially in this draft. You put a mew QB in amd you have the same issues of the worst tight ends in the league and two quality receivers.

Denver defense doesn't suck?

Well...he did it again folks. Rating of 121, let's see what his Next Gen score is on Monday. You all can say what you want, but he's playing his way into an extension right now, as is Wilks.

Before everyone freaks out, no receivers were open on that play. Darnold is allowed to throw the ball away. Dude looks like a starting QB to me though. He's looked good in every game he's played this year and it looks like if the defense holds, we will be 3-1 with him starting. Do not waste a pick on Levis.

I'm going to say it again, if you can't get Stroud or Young, you don't waste a top pick on a QB. Draft Mayer and Hyatt, roll with Darnold. No need to waste a top pick this year when we have a guy with just as high a ceiling as Will Levis, if not higher.

We don't need a QB guys. We need an elite tight end and a burner 3rd receiver. We will be golden. Roll with Corral and Darnold.

Jared Goff is Sam Darnold with a competent offensive coaching staff. We need Mayer, Hyatt, and a modern offensive system and...with Darnold...we could be pretty damn good. For all of you who want to draft Levis...you've no idea what you're talking about.

We need Mayer in the 1st round, not a QB. No one can convince me otherwise.

Jared Goff is proof positive that when you build around a guy, he can develop. He's easily the most underappreciated quarterback in the NFL. I'm telling yall, give Sam a competent offensive staff and he will be fine. All the tools are there.

Darnold just ran that option to perfection. Literally forcing the linebacker to take him. Best Panthers drive of the year. Let's go Wilks. Let's go Sam. Let's go Foreman. Prove the huddler naysayers wrong.
