The short = passes batted is a goofy thing to quote. The 2nd and 3rd highest batted passes guys in the NFL currently are both 6-5+.

Oh the results are likely to be similar no matter what we do. Our path is probably pretty secure for 2022. I have no blind hatred for Darnold. I just know and knew he was not an NFL QB or even capable of being one. He showed that in NY and confirmed without a doubt that fact here in Carolina.

I have seen the same games and I still don't want to see Darnold again. At least Mayfield honestly has some good play on tape in previous years to give some sense of false hope. Darnold has almost nothing.

I am very sure about that. There are four years of tape basically proving it.

Well now that we have a real head coach, I would hope we would be smarter as an organization than to start Darnold in anything but an emergency scenario. He is very clearly the worst QB on our roster. VERY clearly.

There isn't a good reason to take just a 2nd for him.

Yeah but why sell low? We could also just keep him as a valuable piece for the next staff. We shouldn't ask the world but we shouldn't cut bait, either. We aren't in a desperate spot.

I agree but we literally don't know how each move broke down. We speculate and that is about all we can do. One assumes Tepper has a much better idea about that. I think whether we see Fitterer back will tell that story. Let's also keep in mind that Matt Rhule hand picked......Scott Fitterer.

I don't think we know how much we will know about that power structure until both are gone. We assume things but we don't know.

Go listen again.

I don't think so. If you recall, he said that it would be more of a "balance" in the future. I think that was a direct shot at the decision to let Rhule have final roster say.

His expressions, body language and tone spoke volumes, IMO. I think that some of the Huddle is probably a little autistic, so they may have not picked up some pretty obvious things.

If you listen to what he said, he was pretty critical of the mismanaged resources. So, the question is, how much responsibility did Fitterer have for that? The one thing he didn't do was publicly give Fitterer a vote of confidence, which he had done for Rhule previously. That's not good for Fitterer, IMO.

I mean, he didn't obviously shut any of those doors when given a chance, which I think was very telling.

Boy, a lot to unpack there. He all but admitted the Rhule contract was a mistake. It sounds like Fitterer's job is in jeopardy. It sounds like he doesn't believe we have done a good job of managing resources(draft picks, contracts, etc) in pursuit of winning now. It sounds like we will give Wilks a chance but I don't know if he will be back, regardless. It sounds like we might be moving players before Nov. 1.

Can you imagine how big of a shitshow this probably was behind the scenes?

No QB will be successful in this morons offense. That ship sailed.

Congrats @OriginalPD @TLGPanthersFan @ClawOn @wolfpackfan72 @Bigchipper @ATLpanther @Malt Liquor @R0CKnR0LLA fuging nailed it.

He has completely lost his confidence. You can see it.

Unlikely

The only Huddle hate he gets is usually a small group of complete twats.

I think TMJ is a bust but there is no reason to not play him from the fan's perspective. These guys drafted him in the second round so let's see if you are morons for not playing him or morons for taking him in thr first place. Either way, we know it's going to result in them looking moronic.

I think some players just know to just fall on the sword and say the diplomatic thing. He's going corporate answer versus the obvious look on DJ Moore's face or the diplomatic answer by Moton that was also accompanied by a clearly perturbed look on his face. For DJ, it's very clear he is having a difficult time bearing the brunt of questions about issues that are almost entirely not his fault. It was written all over his face and demeanor.
