It is more than coaching. Since Tepper bought the Panthers the record is 29-54. Despite what he says, I believe he is a meddling owner. Remember, he forced Rivera to go to a 3-4 defense in 2019 and it was a disaster. Fast forward a few years later and the Panthers are once again a 3-4 defense when they clearly do not have the players to run it. This team lacks talent and traded it best offensive players. Fitterer has consistently wasted draft picks on poor players. Seriously this team was better when Rivera and Hurney were here.

Pure Arrogance……since he bought the team they have consistently lost no matter the coaches. Four different head coaches but with similar results. The one thing consistent is Tepper. Despite what he says I think he is a meddling owner and is negatively impacting the coaches ability to coach and the GM & others ability to effectively do their jobs.

I wish the Panthers had never let Bradberry leave

Question- if Burns sits does he still get paid his current contract or does he forfeit all pay?

I would have to add what the 49ers gave up to trade for Trey Lance as “up there too”. They gave up 3 first rounders for a QB that never did anything. Ouch.

Wasn’t trading away our best player in the middle of a losing season kind of a sign

If Bryce Young becomes who the Panthers expect him to this was a significantly successful draft. If any of the others turn into all pro players that is a bonus. I think picking Mingo tells us that they are not sold on the current WR list and need more playmakers. This draft was about getting a QB and a 2nd round WR fits into that plan.

Yeah, he definitely looks 'young'....LOL

I noticed Bryce Young's father is bigger/taller/.....wonder if Bryce can still grow & 'fill-out'. I mean he is only 21.

If this test is so important to determine QB success, why was Fields not picked earlier and why has his career been “less than stellar’?

Kenny Burrough= 00

I am sure glad the prior coaching staff is not making this decision. Having guys like Thomas, Caldwell, Staley, and Reich make the decision should give every Panthers fan confidence that they will get it right and surround this young QB with the right talent.

I hope Tepper has learned and is smart enough to know that Reich, Caldwell, Thomas and etc have forgotten more about QB’s than he will ever know. Let his coaches pick their guy

Phillip Rivers

I just hope Tepper stays out of the decision and let's Reich, Caldwell and the other seasoned NFL coaches do their jobs.

Zach Wilson = guess they are already giving up on him after drafting him #2 just two years ago.

We all agree the Panthers need at least two QB’s for this season. But not everyone agrees on how to do this or which ones. The key for me is that the Panthers now have an actual NFL coaching staff that is going to be making these decisions vs a college coaching staff. I had very little confidence in the prior coaching staff to make any decisions let alone the QB. Reich, Caldwell, McCown, Evero, Brown, Campen, Staley, Jefferson, Capers…etc have forgotten more about football then I will ever know. However or whoever they decide to be the next Panthers QB’s will be the right decision. These coaches are experts….it is going to be a fun offseason.

Of course

McCown as the bridge QB, and Reich as the backup #2. If not that, sign Carr to be the #1, and Darnold to be the #2.

Josh McDaniels is not a good HC.....look at his tenure with the Broncos. Also, he traded away Jay Cutler and drafted T. The Golden Calf of Bristol in round 1. Now he released Carr and got nothing in return. I would not put too much stock in how Carr performed last year. When Gruden was the coach he was a solid QB...if the price is right.

What's a Cooter?

Is Corral even going to be healthy by training camp? That was a pretty nasty injury if I recall correctly.

Could be. I don’t follow the Vikings but know they were 13-4 last year and have a very good offense and a better than average QB. I do think Reich is going to turn things around for the Panthers….when he gets a QB.

If he wants money I think the Panthers win. If he wants to help build a young team nucleus to be consistent winners in the future then the Panthers win. If he wants to be on a more complete team that is competing for championships now than the Vikings win.
