It is true, Teddy isn't going to throw this team on his back and lead us to victory like Cam could back in the day, but given a decent OL and improved D TB has shown that he is a servicable QB.

I am relatively confident that Rhule will continue to get the most out of the players he has available to him.  By next season this team is going to make great strides and surprise a lot of opponents.  Chances are good that Teddy will be here for that and his numbers will improve as well when he isn't running for his life.

Note: Yes, Cam was the Panthers franchise QB, but he only managed to have 3 winning seasons in his time here.  Chances are, even the most talented QBs in the league would have a hard time consistently winning this season with the supporting cast Carolina has to work with.

You at all familiar with the weather conditions in that particular game?  The other team scored 10.

Teddy put them exactly where they needed to be and the kicker missed the equivalent of a PAT, from the old/shorter distance.

The defense has given Teddy numerous opportunities to deliver a game winning drive. We're still waiting. I don't dislike Teddy, I just understand that he's the bridge. If you think he's the long-term answer them your basically hoping we settle for mediocrity.

I believe your perspective is incredibly short-sighted.  I also believe Teddy is way way better than you are giving him credit for and look for him to prove you wrong.  In the end one of us will be right.

Aren't you the guy who hammered on Justin Herbert for an entire season or more suggesting he would amount to nothing more than a dog-eared pack mule?  If that wasn't you my apologies in advance.

I hammered on what Herbert was able to show in that Oregon offense.

Maybe on the backside of Teddy's sixth season with his 4th team he'll find a gear he's never shown to have. I'd bet heavily against that.

Yeah but you said he'd be an unqualified bust in the NFL and the Panthers shouldn't go ANYWHERE near him -- right?

What do you mean by this..."with his 4th team"...what's the purpose of that statement?

11 passing touchdowns in 9 games. 13 total in 9 games. He just passed Fitzmagic who has played six games. Teddy is still only ahead of Sam Darnold and Daniel Jones in terms of scoring. At least Teddy IS on pace to cross the magic 15 passing TDs for the first time in his career.

Absolutely untrue. I specifically said he had all the tools you want in an NFL QB but what he had been able to show in terms of actual play at Oregon did not translate to the NFL.

Good starting QBs don't bounce around four rosters in six years.

Your advice was that the Panthers steer clear of Herbert -- right?

LOL at the latter....just unreal.

This might be the saddest thing I’ve read online today.

I'm pleased that the Panthers now have grown-ups in the room making personnel decisions within the context of a well defined system -- will bode well for the long run...nobody is bigger than the team/system in Rhule's world. 

A Super Bowl win (or two) in the octennial will be the payoff.

Here are the QBs who've won a Super Bowl since the Panthers entered the league. 

"Within the context" of their most successful seasons, "grown-ups" pick Teddy over which one?

Troy Aikman
Brett Favre
John Elway
Kurt Warner
Trent Dilfer
Tom Brady
Brad Johnson
Ben Roethlisberger
Peyton Manning
Eli Manning
Drew Brees
Aaron Rogers
Joe Flacco
Russell Wilson
Nick Foles
Patrick Mahomes

What if I told you that you could draft a QB in the first and still have the rest of the draft to spend on the OL if you choose to do so?

With a guy who thought Greg Little was a first round prospect running the draft?

I know some people think that's ideal, but truth be told if you need a quarterback to do that our regular basis it's probably because you haven't built a very good team around him.

Based on what I saw at Oregon, yes. But I said over and over that it's impossible to say if that's due to him or the system without interviewing him and putting him through the ringer. That's a HUGE part of the process of evaluating a QB and something fans and draftniks just don't have access to.

You think good starting QBs usually bounce around the league? Okay. LOL!

      I mean.....his guy has to be someone willing to come so Geno Smith is out. If you mean RUSSELL Wilson, that is laughable. Fields and ZACH Wilson are just basically the beginning of the end. These aren't likely to be Geno Smith turnarounds. Fields is further proving that he just isn't much more than a gimmick player. Zach Wilson still probably needs a year or two under some better circumstances before I would consider him a candidate for being a turnaround. He is just jumping straight back into the NY Jets fire here.

      If you wanted Danny Dimes here’s the chance

      This is factually incorrect. He was a two time Pro Bowler with the Rams and in fact statistically he was better with the Rams in his best season there than he has been with the Lions(could change with this season). Some of his per game stats have creeped into being marginally better with the Lions but there have not been dramatic differences in his play, actually. The biggest reason that McVay and he ended up splitting was McVay didn't think he could win a title with Goff. TBH.....so far he was 100% correct. Stafford almost immediately won them a SB and Goff in a historic run was about 70% of the reason the Lions faltered in the NFC championship game. He missed critical throws all over the first half and throughout the second half that he normally wouldn't. He choked. So, until Goff actually does win a SB...McVay has been right.

      they have the best defense they've had in a long time...probably the best in the reid/mahommes era.  but i think they are probably the most beatable they've been in a while as well. record doesn't exactly bear that out, but they just don't look as strong on offense as they usually do. lots of reasons for that, like trying to build chemistry with newer receivers, but right now they just aren't as frightening as they typically are. i mean they'll probably win tomorrow, but i don't see them as the strongest team in the AFC right now.
