I have to wonder if the off season drama with Rodgers has messed with the teams morale? Saints looked good but I don’t think they can keep it up. I could be wrong but isn’t their defense not that good at getting to the QB? Also didn’t they loose some key offensive linemen? It’s hard to judge a team on what they do week one.

He got a lot of pressures as a rookie. Correct me if I’m wrong but wasn’t he basically the NT last year and this year he will be able to get to the QB more since we signed Bowers who will be the NT?

Problem is I’ll be at work…

I don’t think simulations are advanced enough to predict an entire nfl season. I mean how can it predict injures? How can it predict player professions and players getting worse? Some players will be a completely different player in different systems. You can’t predict what a new coach is going to do. That said if we do get the #1 pick I honestly don’t think any of the Top QBs in this draft will be that great but maybe I’m wrong.

I’ll be at work and won’t be off until 4pm. So I’ll probably miss the game. I would rather just watch it from the begging. I know so apps allow you to watch games from the beginning. Does anyone know what apps I can use to watch the entire game from the beginning? I don’t plan on paying for any app so I prefer it being free, unless it’s on Hulu or Amazon because I already have that. thanks!

So pat Elf is the starter? I saw him listed on the depth chart but didn’t know if it was official.

What would be the best was of watching panthers games for poor people? Or people who don’t wanna pay anything to watch? I tried watching with an digital antenna but it sucks, the Fox and cbs apps sometimes don’t always show the local games for some reason.

4th round pick? Not bad. I have to wonder if this is good news for Darnold, hear me out. If Darnold has been really good in practice and looks like a different player here then maybe we signed Morgan because we think New York is just so bad that there could be another decent qb on their roster that the staff wasn’t using correctly?

I would say resign players and front load contracts but I was told that doesn’t matter anymore because the way you came move dead cap over? Still we have some big contracts coming up and no big QB contract so I wouldn’t get too comfortable. We give DJ Moore, D jax, Burns big deals there goes a big hit. If Darnold plays well then there’s probably a 20 million a year contract. If D Arnold and/or Reddick play well then there’s a big payday to keep them.

I’m shocked but maybe he looked bad to our staff?

I noticed that too. We keep signing all these players who can only play special teams. I mean Cannon sucks at Rb and is supposedly the top gunner in the league so he’s clearly just here for special teams. Stanford is a career special teams guy who doesn’t bring anything as a starter, Zylstra is a special teams player who might can be a decent back up but seems to only be on this team because of special teams. The DE we just traded for is a special teams guy. Maybe he does have potential as a starter but hasn’t shown it yet. We have JJ Jansen who is only a LS and drafted an LS when we could have drafted another position and I heard that we are keeping another player because of special teams. why not sign players who offer more than special teams? I remember when we had Greg Hardy on special teams laying people out. Keep one ace and the rest should be young players with potential or vets who are good back ups like we used Chase Blackburn. It’s wasting a roster spot to me.

I just don’t see us keeping 5 TE. I think we have too many special teams players as it is but our staff seems to like the guys who don’t really offer anything except special teams. I would love to get a new back up QB but who? Who can we get that can play in our system and can learn our playbook? If we replace Walker with a different QB we could be screwed if Darnold gets hurt. You can’t expect a QB to do well if they hardly know the playbook. Then again PJ Walker isn’t that good either. Our team put a lot of faith in Darnold. I guess it’s a smart decision because it Darnold ends up being a bust then we will suck and need to get a top QB in the draft. So if he sucks we should end up with a top draft pick to get a QB. If he does well then we should be a good team and not need a QB in the draft.

It would be funny if Haskins and Rosen became the franchise QBs for their teams.

I’m glad we found a way to keep him. I would hate for us to cut him after spending a draft pick on him. Then again maybe we would have kept him and traded JJ for a draft pick? This way we get to keep both players and Fletcher can play next year after JJ retires.

I wish the NFL had a developmental/minor league where they could develop QBs and other players that just need some training and experience. QBs are the hardest to develop because they won’t get any playing time in a real game. No telling how many good QBs are out there if they just gave them a shot.

Maybe you should have because you would have seen that I wasn’t moving the goal post at all, just pointing out the differences.

There’s a lot more to it than that. If I remember correctly they didn’t want to keep Brady. There were a lot of tensions between Bill and Brady. Pats didn’t have the cap room or roster to build a great team like Tampa was able to build. Pats figured Brady was done and it was time to find his replacement, have a crappy year, draft a good qb and build another dynasty. You can say that Brady was the reason behind the pats success not Bill and you would have a good argument. I don’t think the pats would have won as many super bowls, hell maybe not even one Super Bowl without Brady. However I do think Bill is good even if he cheats. It was his brilliant coaching that shut down opposing offenses and came up with schemes to beat the other team.

Darnold hasn’t been in the league long and had an incompetent coaching staff around him. Darnold had no offensive line, no wrs and no RB. Cam had a good offensive line and RB Corp. average to below average WR Corp and a great coaching staff that has experience and a winning record. They have made back ups look good in their system. The difference between cam and Darnold is potential and age. Cam has already hit his prime and had lots of wear and tear on his body. Darnold hasn’t hit his prime yet and is younger than some rookie qbs. It’s possible that Darnold could become a good player with the right staff around him to teach him. It can take a few years for a QB to develop into a good player. Many teams give up on QBs too early in my opinion. You already know what you are going to get out of Cam. There is a lot of concern that his arm isn’t even close to the same as it was before his injury a few years ago. Can with a messed up shoulder is a back up at best.

I guess people are going to completely forget how he had like 6 games where he had less than 120 yards passing 4 under 100, more interceptions than touchdowns thrown and 6 fumbles. You can give him all the excuses you want like “he didn’t have anyone to throw to” but that’s bullshit. Great QBs put up good numbers with bad players around them all the time. He’s also been injured a lot. At the end of the day you aren’t entitled to anything in the NFL. No one owes you anything.

If I had to guess I could just about guarantee that he’s never fully recovered from his injuries and wouldn’t be worth signing.

To be fair holding the lead makes sense. You are basically training the players for the regular season so you want them to get experience with holding the lead.

Does it really matter if we play a rotation where YGM would get plenty of snaps? Also wouldn’t Fox be better against the run which usually means starting?

I swear every pre season we hear about how great a WR looks in camp and they end up sucking and sometimes not even making the team. I remember as far back as hearing Walter Young getting praise in 2003. I do think Marshall has potential to be great but I don’t think he will put up big numbers this year considering he will be the # 3 WR at best and we have Darnold at QB who is a question mark. Maybe DJ Moore or Anderson gets injured and he becomes the #2 while Darnold has a great year. That’s one way he could have a great season. However right now we don’t know if David Moore will beat him for the #3 WR spot. David Moore can make big plays and has lots of nfl experience. So chances are he could be the #4 WR this season behind David Moore.

Considering how Ohio state QBs have translated to the NFL and how quarterbacks have developed in Chicago, I don’t expect Fields to do well in the NFL.

You think Cam is going to have a mvp season after having multiple games throwing below 150 yards passing? I mean are you expecting 80% of the players to get injured? Because Cam isn’t going to be mvp with guys like Mahomes, Rodgers, Allen, Jackson and Wilson. Hell you would probably have a higher chance of a running back like Henry or Mcaffrey winning mvp before Newton. There are probably 15 qbs who are better than Newton right now. I mean last year we were told how he was going to come back and be so great and how he was in such good shape and Bellacheat would get the most out of him and we saw how that went.
