What they saw was what happened with Tannehill in Miami to Tennessee and thought we had the same miracle cure of just getting Darnold out from under the same bad coach.

And Darnold may have been, and may still be salvable. The problem is you needed an offense that babies the guy, gets him adjusted, and takes the pressure off his shoulders. You needed Ron Rivera + Norv Turner coached team and an offensive line.

The Panthers keep trying to take short cuts to success without the assets to risk what they're doing.

Darnold would struggle behind the Dallas OL and with the Dallas running game. His issues aren't related to what happened to him, they are related to who he is as a player.

And, really, why would anyone think he could suddenly just be an NFL QB after just one full season as a HS QB and two seasons as a college QB? Even at USC his disappointing RS sophomore season was blamed on coaching. So, at USC, the Jets and now here in Carolina it was always the coaches fault?

His career and the idea of his talent was made on one year at USC, where he was playing with a ton of talent around him. It was never real.

Brady a few weeks ago was getting all kinds of praise for the 2nd coming of Sam. Now, I have not heard anything from him. 

I think that this franchise has tended to move on from OC's too fast, but at this point I don't trust Brady's evaluation process on finding the next QB for us. 

At this point I can't even blame Brady...

Oline can't be trusted to blocked for more then 2 seconds and even when they do WR can't catch.. Then the QBS not accurate and can't read defenses consistently... Their is nothing on this offense you can depend on at this point..

Exactly. For some reason they think they can contend now so they're desperately swinging at the fences and compromising our future in the process.

They will be sitting on their sofas like the rest of us come the playoffs

How could you say compromising our future when we don't have a QB, and this upcoming QB class is one of the weakest in comparison to others...

We have no future to compromise at the moment. 

 

Not sure where the idea there are no QBs coming out next year started. Cuz there are quite a few QBs that are lighting it up this year. If we go that way, there will be options.

Rhule watched his college tape. This entire staff bases everything around what they did in college, its not working. 

 

 

They watched every throw Sam has made since High School. They did their homework. It just seems like it hasn't worked so far. Maybe it still can.

Thats fair. And a pretty level headed comment.

Malik Willis was put up with Highlights but he's no good according to the QB experts here.

Howell is no good because he's seemed mediocre.

Rattler, as well. 

Personally, all of them would be good draft picks....why?  Because none of them were destroyed by the Jets.

      Easily. To be able to plug in a backup LT without much drop off from your starter? That could mean the difference between playoffs or sitting at home in January. Good/serviceable smart young and healthy LTs that won’t lose you a ball game at reasonable $$ don’t just come along every day. Picture next year… the team is scrappy and competitive, 4 and 3 record, second place in the South. Morale is good. devastating run game that Let’s our marginal defense get plenty of rest. We play the Bucs and win, going to 5 and 3, but we lose Ickey to a high ankle sprain. Atl loses that week and are now at 5 and 3 as well. There is no Ickey and no BC because we let him go… and we go in to Atl the next week for a battle of first in the south. Week after that is the Jets…. Now they lose both by 10 and 3, respectively, and fall to 5 and 5 going in to their bye week. Atl is at 7 and 3. Out of typical Panthers desperation, they try to rush Ickey back in to the lineup with a saints game coming up…  Back to good old Panthers football, always playing catchup. Another season at .500 and the fans sadly rejoice in mediocrity, when playoffs were in reach. This team always overestimates its ability to pick up quality o line depth in the draft or FA and it always blows up in their faces. Like Chuba, I see him as being part of the core that Dan is trying to build. Work on his contract now and see if we can come out with something mutually beneficial. I’d consider 3 yrs at $25m to be very fair.

      it would be great to have "double trouble" again, I even had a T- shirt for Williams and Stewart and the double trouble logo, was a great time to be Panthers fan. We shall see...
