I’m comfortable with Heinicke as backup

[Deltek44]

We had a watch party today, none of us Panther fans or knew anything about the Panthers but we all were watching Heinicke  and rooting hard for the Panthers. Mccaffrey is awesome! To all of our disappointment we realized Heinicke isnt NFL materiel but WOW..just WOW you guys are terrible! We all agreed we havent seen an offensive line that bad ever, if it wasnt getting blown up in the middle instantly, that left tackle was getting destroyed on the edge, if your Oline wasnt getting destroyed in pass protection it was getting a 10 yard penalty. 

Your defense..lol, Ryan wasnt even that good but he was throwing to guys that didnt even have a defender in the tv screen.

Good news for us we wont be worrying about you guys competing in the NFC anytime soon!

cam throws three picks CUT HIS ASS

heineken throws three picks well i'm not saying it was an insanely stellar performance but the kid's got guts

-fanbase

we should have the same expectations out of our back up, one armed qb as we do our franchise 100 million starter or racist

as far as our back up qb position, we can do better

Honestly we should've kept Garrett Gilbert. He looked like the best QB besides Cam in the preseason for the past couple years. But Ron isn't known for his talent evaluation.

Yep

I agree about Rivera, but that particular choice might not be on him.

Heinicke over Gilbert was likely Norv's call.

Exactly as I said in August. Don’t know what difference it’d make though. We’re trash well beyond QB.

Seeing as we don't keep a third quarterback, that's basically a no.

Well if Ron is to be a goner then this idea has no meaning any more, for now, a new GM/HC may think differently, or not.

There's a guy named Joe on the Ravens who will need a job, are you interested in him?

Absolutely not for what he wants

Ah come on, he's a Super Bowl weiner. As second string he'd be better than Taylor, or are you pining away for QB that hasn't played in several years?

[Mr. Scot]

There is one, and only one, condition wherein I would be disposed to even bring Heinicke to camp next year.

That condition would be the Panthers hiring a head coach or an offensive coordinator who plans to run a West Coast Offense. 

I don't really see him working out in a Coryell attack, but in a West Coast offense, maybe.

Uh, no, I don’t support breaking the bank for a past-his-prime QB who will demand a starting job wherever he signs.

Hard to tell what the backup is capable of doing when he played injured for most of the game.

On a side note: Pulling Allen after he moved the team into scoring position seemed counter intuitive.

I think you can add managing injuries to the QB position to the long list of things our coaching staff does not understand.  Their decision tree seems to be:

1. If he is not in the emergency room
2. If he is in uniform,
3. If all his body parts are attached, and,
4. If he is higher on the depth chart than the guy who is in there,

Then he goes in the game.

My problem there is I think he might be kinda frail.
