I'm sorry, but there is never a good reason to Intercept a 4th down pass. You get the ball at the line of scrimmage. It is never a good idea to put your team 10, 20 or more yards past the LOS. You cannot guarantee a Pick 6. Just knock the pass down, and get off the field. I learned that in the backyard at what, 10 years old. When a teenager comes up and knocks you on your azz for it. You learn to not do it.

See, that's the thing. You keep saying "If Sam doesn't work out", "If he regresses", "If he can't do this, or that". Then say, "I''m willing to wait". You can't have it both ways. Screw it. I'm done with this. Let's grab an aging Vet that will cripple our cap, and glut our draft picks. Cus, that's what good teams do.

Anyone else notice the high amount of 4th down INTs this year? What is up with that. Don't kids learn to not do that in the back yard at 10?

Some kids play all the sports, and get a well rounded athletic background. Some kids specialize, and don't get that extra muscle/brain training. Give me the well rounded athlete every time.

Dude, Sam is putting up elite numbers right now. And you seem to be missing it because you have this odd fixation that we have to have a RW type QB, or we are doomed. Why don't you what until this year is over before you put Sam in the ground?

Aw, look at you. Still refusing to talk football on a football forum. Buck the trends. I can dig that.

It's the interwebz. Some people are a tad more harsh that others. If you believe in your stance go with it. But, you can't say "This fanbase sucks" and think you are ok. Yeah, we all love the Panthers. Some are just more emotional than others. Ride the wave, and have fun. Don't take this so serially.

For me, it's no doubt Sam. From this point Sam has a longer shelf life.

I hadn't realized this until you brought it up, but most of his TDs have pretty much been of the walk-in untouched variety. The kid has impressed. The face of the franchise for the next oh, 15 years. I tell ya what. lol

That is the fear for most fans. The FO either seems to do too little, or they overreact to every situation. Panther fans are conditioned to expect the worst. It will take some time to get them all on the same page. This FO seems willing to move on from players that they aren't happy with. Not sure how Sam will have to play to get to that level. I just don't see that happening.

Eyes front.

So, what are you proposing? Some sort of entrance exam? Or maybe a monthly performance revue? Cuz we don't need any of those types up in here now do we?

Well, to be fair. It is kinda what fans do. Some are just more emotionally invested is all. That, and it is the interwebz. You kinda get the good, and the not so good.

First. I went back and reread every response to you. The closest I came to insulting you was after you said "This fanbase sucks". I told you you had gone off the rails for insulting a whole fanbase. I didn't insult you, I called you out. Second, you can say it's not about Sam all you want. Your words tell a different story. Sam has played great. Yet, you are worried about stagnation, and regression? Yeah, you ain't biased. Either that, or you are a worry wart. Worrying over future events you have no control over is not good for your health. Let go of the past. Let the future shine on your countanance.

I believe with Fitt, Rhule, and Co. Sam is set up nicely. He may have more TEAM success than Cam. But it will be a while before we can start worrying about individual stats. But man, Sam is off to a great start.

All in all, I agree with this. I would like to add though, Sam has gotten a ton of Coaching since we got ahold of him. We really don't know how much better that has made him. But it defiantly had to help him a bunch. So, in general, he is the same QB. But ability wise, right now, he is a better QB.

I have no doubt in my mind that Sam is set up to have more TEAM success than Cam. As for individual stats? Sam is off to a great start. So we will just have to wait and see on that front.

There's no doubt Sam has his work cut out for him. But man, he is playing with a much much better FO. If he can sustain the success he has already achieved. And he can hang around for enough years. Yeah, he has a chance for more team success than Cam. Does that make him the best QB in team history?

Fear of the past can severely inhibit your forward momentum. And right now we have a lot of Huddlerz who are stuck in this mode. PTSD The brain trust has a vision for what they want to achieve. They have a plan on how to achieve that plan. And if things change, they are able to adapt said plan. I have no fear that this team is not headed for sustained success. Folks can nitpick this, and poo poo that. But the one thing they can't dismiss, is the fact we are trending up big time.

Why do you believe this D has a finite window? The only way that happens is if Fiit, and Rhule start pooing the bed in the draft. If we continue to draft well. Our window may always be open.

You went from getting rep for a decent post, only to blow that out of the water with your snarky azz attitude. Forgot who I was dealing with for a moment there. Won't happen again.

In just that short period of time. You went from, you had me. To, you lost me. No reason to go there.

That's a bold statement Cotton. I hope it works for you. That said. If it actually does come to pass. It could get REAL interesting up in here.

Hey, when you find something that works...you stay with it. lol

The commercials all make it seem like all you have to do is whip out the ol Visa card, and you're good to go. So you have that going for you.
