Per Matt Miller.. Panthers all in on Richardson?
Wundrbread33 replied to micnificent28's topic in Carolina Panthers
Wouldn’t shock me at all. I think this top 10 is going to be wild. -
Maybe to you specifically. Can’t go through life caring about that. No matter what you say, what opinion you have, etc, someone will disagree or think you look dumb. Also some things are funny to me that aren’t funny to you and vice versa. Like calling a stranger on the internet a moron. I don’t think that’s tasteful, but you might disagree with that. I don’t care because you don’t know me, it’s just an interesting move.

It’s okay not liking Corral as a prospect, but not liking him BECAUSE OF LAST PRESEASON like @Sean Payton's Vicodin apparently…is absurd in context. So early. Such a small sample. Awful protection. Leftover reps was all he had in practice. It says a lot about a poster when they write any player off that early. Never forget the week 1 “Icky is a bust” thread.

I think between Hooker and Corral, plus all the talent we can add by keeping our picks… That beats trading everything to move up for another guy. One of those guys surely will be a solid QB for us.

For me, the penalty issues early in the season…didn’t worry me because that’s coachable. He would have stellar coverage and just panic and tackle the dude. …what bummed me out was giving up on plays against Tampa, in a must win game. Not sure how coachable that is. I just haven’t been able to stick my neck out defending him after that. Elite athlete or not.

Panthers founder Jerry Richardson passes away at 86
Wundrbread33 replied to mcsmoak's topic in Carolina Panthers
The panther was my favorite animal as a kid, and my Mom grew up in NC. Perfect match. Thanks for adding some football fandom to my childhood JR. Rest in peace. -
If we acquire Rodgers or Carr, we won’t draft a QB at 9. At least incredibly unlikely since nothing is impossible. We probably load up on skill players in the first two rounds, or go for our favorite edge. Corral and Eason will be the young guys learning, and since they are already on the roster, their presence won’t piss off the vet we just committed to.

I guess this far in I didn’t realize you were talking to OP. That’s my bad. I still think that Darnold being “the guy” is a very rare opinion though lol.
-
Yeah example number 1 will always be (for me) Dan Marino not winning a Super Bowl. There will always be that person(s) who will put that on Marino and try to take away from what he did. Then there are those who know it’s not that simple.

You’ve missed the point.
-
To some on here, wins/losses are entirely on the QB. It’s always their fault if the team loses. It’s always their doing if the team wins. …except for Sam going 4-2 in his starts last season…that doesn’t count.
-
What do you mean by “he’s the guy”? I don’t see many saying that. I see people talking about him being a bridge QB, backup, or a “manage the game” type guy. I take your wording as “believing he’s the future at the position for the franchise” and I don’t think that’s what people are saying. Regarding this being his 6th year, I think the more important number is his age. At 25-26, he is entering mental maturity as a person. I agree that he shouldn’t be considered “the guy” but that also seems like a monster that you created to slay.

Fitterer, Reich Combine pressers today
Wundrbread33 replied to Mr. Scot's topic in Carolina Panthers
Like two sips of coffee for me and it’s a stressful time for those low flow toilets. -
To be fair, the team was able to go 4-2 with Sam Darnold under a weaker staff (on paper). It’s not unreasonable for him to game manage this team into the playoffs in this weak ass division. And regarding “unfixable”…that’s kind of vague. Reich has historically squeezed better than expected performance from quarterbacks he has had. I’d be surprised if Sam got worse or stayed the same under Reich and co. Safer bet would be he would improve, but who knows.
-
Another angle to this, is that if your plan is drafting a QB, and developing him or Corral to take over as the future, bringing Sam back makes sense more than a splash FA or blockbuster trade for a vet QB. If Sam plays well or continues to improve under this staff, it’s found money, and worst case scenario he can game manage before turning the reigns over with no controversy. I think his contract would be indicative of that too. Someone like Carr, getting paid what he’s getting paid, means he’s the guy for the foreseeable future, at least in theory. If you don’t like Sam in this scenario, then substitute another middling guy like Brissett in his place.
