Ok. Didn’t say he was. Cam was the most impactful though. 89 didn’t draw folks or make us nationally relevant to the nation like Cam. So Cam is the most impactful. For many reasons… his role, load and MVP on a Carolina level and then what he did for us on the national stage. I think Luke and Peppers were better actual football players. 89 3rd, more entertaining because of position, trash talk, and after the whistle/play antics

All I know, is I want the Panther offer to leak out in the end. Got to know what that is

your fantasy is still alive guys…

I think it was reasonable and I endorsed us doing the same that just happened with Trubisky. Throw him on a roster for a couple years and tinker with him and see… but making Sam the dude was always crazy. And frankly, Rhule doesn’t have defense for Sam and the way it went. If you were even thinking of starting him you had to go get legit comp from day 1.

I think 89 is the fanbases collective favorite of all time. I don’t think he was actually the best player to put on pads here. Top 3. Nor the most impactful. Top 2.

He plays QB and can’t do that…so why does it even matter

The Masked Singer?

but then point becomes when Sam actually has what he needs and everyone does their job….Sam fails out of belief everything won’t work out. and that’s why he should be backup somewhere working out all his flaws. As this is just one of them.

lol. Yes, you did properly fix the typo.

In fairness, l’m sure they have worked on a lot of them. But they can’t be expected to fix all his in an offseason….and have him behind that OL. the claim they were going to fix him never was believable. You can’t fix a broken QB behind a bad OL.

Well as he points out. That isn’t what is actually happening on all these plays he is referencing. It’s Sam out of whack. And the right throw doesn’t happen. And if it does, it’s then late and wrong since Sam isn’t in sync with anything. The playcall works. But Sam is so out of whack he can’t make it work. He just fugs the works up. and you basically are defending Sam for playing poorly because of the belief of what could of happened. That didn’t. And it was just him in the end being bad. So it’s faulting the OL when they do their job It’s why the right call was always for him to be sitting somewhere like Trubisky. To see if his game can ever develop be fixed to get back on the field.

maybe they can explain why they added CJ, Gilmore, etc.....and not someone like Menshew then. In on every deal, right?

could be more than football. Miami just a more attractive place to be for him. He is young and single. All his family and past would be super close to him here. Easy driving distance to him. Everyone doesn't want to go back home (ish).

What if the NFL actaully greenlights they won't suspend Watson this season at least unless something new emerges. Carolina offers a mega deal. Hou takes it to him. Watson is like, nah...I don't like the looks of Rhule and what is going on. lol.

There is one today in NY. The WFT/Gruden stuff probably will be a hotter topic than Watson.

Worth a listen. Talks about how Sam just gets out of sync with plays and makes them look bad. *apologies in advance for this not being another Watson thread.

The NFL doesn't care if those guys ever play a snap again.

the NFL doesn't give a poo about Watson. It still chews guys like him up and spits them out with ease. They aren't hurting without him playing.

well, that's why Teddy's game was just to play small ball. And Teddy was a good small ball QB between the 20s.

easier to drive up the price on Miami's offer when you have someone else precieved in the deal. if it's only Miami, it becomes a straight up take it or leave it offer.

we have the worst OL in the NFL. We can only threaten so much of the field realistically because of that. and yes, Sam Darnold is horrible at reading a field and progressing. The right throws come and go. And yeah, people then get covered. That's the NFL. Windows close. He is slow with it. And when he does find something he too often isn't on time getting it out...... It's why he is a downgrade from Teddy. Teddy could read the field and get it out to the right guy on time. Teddy can move on from the first read before the ball touches his hands. Sam basically has to have his first read come open....and if it doesn't you basically have 50/50 of horrible Sam living up to his name. and you could google and find artcles from this weekend that break that fact down. and you can find people doing that throught his long career. that's what he is.

reports have always been Miami is the only team he gave the greenlight on. He said no to Philly. We proabably are just chump leverage and just being used to manipulate the Miami deal. Hope that is the case.

a lof of them stems from Darnold not being able to handle progressions and reads quickly. And the windows come and go on the routes. He largely is a one read QB who implodes after that. And even when throws are there he has always had a hestiation about pulling the trigger when it should be pulled. He is late with it. Leads to bad throws and better coverage finding guys.

I don't really get into actually hating teams. I talk mad junk about the Gamecocks but it largely just to ruffle feathers of thesupporters I know. In reality, I would hope the Gameocks win every game they play minus 1 each year. Them being overall successful is better for Clemson than them being bad.

IMO, as long as Hou is doing the job for them, the NFL isn’t to say a word on Watson. they certainly aren’t going to promise a team they will or won’t do something once Hou puts it in their lap. Variables that don’t exist now will start to form.
