Not to be picky, but the 1st drive is scripted and is almost always positive. Sometimes we even manage a score on that first series. It is usually the 2nd and 3rd drives where the game becomes more revealing. I get what you are saying though, I don't think that Young is capable of being a dual threat though. That doesn't mean he can't take off and run, but I don't think that is a significant part of his game. Maybe they will work it in more regularly.

I was going to remark that I thought his contract is over. Safe from what? Being hired by another team? I mean, if they say so.

The Seahawks win was a shocking upset. That is the Beastquake game against the defending champ 11-5 Saints. Maybe we will have our own Beastquake moment to pull a shocking upset.

Miami should be up by more than 4.

Well. Everyone knows now what they will get with Winston. He is a finished product at this point, and he has his good moments certainly, but his bad moments are back-breaking. He could be a good bridge qb. I don't know how much of a mentor he would be to a young qb though I really thought he would stick around for a while in NO post-Brees.

XL needs to be out the door.

Murray has talent and skill, but when I look at his game, he might as well still be the exact same qb he was at Oklahoma. I don't think he has grown, developed, blossomed, refined any skill at all over his NFL career. Maybe bad coaching, maybe bad player, probably some of both. I would still add him to the roster in place of Dalton. Having Dalton back there is like having no one.

Surely, since Young is the qb he is, a 3 year NFL starter, a qb with exceptional command of a playoff team, and many of us are just too stupid and blind to recognize, he will have no trouble mopping the floor with anyone from this list of has-beens and never-weres.

I would bring any of them in to replace or compete with Dalton. If they happened to also surpass our #1 overall pick and master of the big-time throw, then so be it. Thems the breaks.

I guess that's when they decided to stick with who they had.

A lot of the talk I have heard and read is about Harbaugh going to the Giants. Out of the AFC, they may have a qb, rb, lt and wr in place. Defensive line has potential. It makes some sense.

Eh. He got them in the playoffs twice I think. A team could do worse.

Because, for whatever reason, some people are convinced that bumping his pay from just under 10 million per season to 1 season at 26.5 million makes it a try-out year to see if he gets it before paying him 50 million per year. Even though there has been 3 years of evidence already.

Why can't both be true? Why is it either or? Of course I want the Panthers to win. I also do not want Young as he is not an NFL qb.
