How far would the Stafford led Panthers have gone?

Probably pretty far. The Rams have had that roster together for a while and it’s all been for naught. It was a franchise QB that finally made it all worth it.

to reinforce that, most of their major players were brought in as high priced free agents or blockbuster trades. You’re gonna see more and more teams be more and more willing to part with major assets.

the problem with the panthers pursuing Stafford was never Stafford, it was the opportunity to draft a long term franchise QB, something they foolishly ended up bypassing anyways.

can’t make the mistake again, if the super bowl proved anything, it’s just how futile your chances are without one.

burrow took an average squad and led them to a super bowl.

an elite squad floundered for years because they had an average QB and finally triumphed once they got one.

If Dave tepper doesn’t see the obvious now then there’s no helping this organization as long as he’s here.

no more cutesy minimum play investments. It’s time to spend massive capital one way or the other for a guy.

Smh....we really have people on here acting like the refs won that game for the Rams? Funny how end of the game situation makes people forget what happened earlier in the game.

How many other Super Bowls have you seen where the winning team on their final drive gets that many favorable flags in the span of less than 2 minutes? We got some blind mice here.

Agree with everything you said here except that Brady didn’t win a SB with Caldwell. Caldwell was his #1 WR for one season, in 2006 when Manning finally beat the Patriots and then won the SB. He dropped 2 passes in that game. If anything though it proves your point further.

Whoops. Nice catch (not Caldwell, you)!

Not far, he would have benched himself by week 8 and held out until his trade demands were met.  He wouldn't even do that with the Lions.  How crazy is that?

That would be if he survived until week 8.  As it stands now and this last season, we need somebody that can run for their life back there.

So, not far is the right answer.

The worst part is that we are in the worst year to make that investment. This is truly a case of Murphy’s law.

It feels like this every year, but the math points to the likelihood that there is a guy in this bunch. Identify him. That’s the job they’re paid to do.

      At least Rivera got the Super Bowl, and then lost is because he refused to adjust.  Rod’s likely will never get to the Stanley Cup unless the team he coaches is stacked and can overcome Rods weird decisions making.

      PFF ranks the 2025 starting QBs

      By frankw · Posted

      We've literally seen him hop around the pocket to survey the field in multiple occurrences. Defenses have this on tape. Cam and QB's like him built the way he was height and strength wise could get by on those natural gifts in their prime. Bryce Young is unequivocally going to have to go above and beyond with his footwork in order to carve out not just a long career but an elite career worthy of a top overall draft selection. We should be able to wholeheartedly agree with one another on that. Intermediate sideline throws without placing the ball out of bounds where the receiver has to contort themselves or make an absurd acrobatic catch for it to be a completion. And yes developing a better chemistry in the deep passing game with his receivers to avoid miscues. Both areas will need to see improvement if the young offense is to develop the way we hope in 2025. And we don't necessarily need to be winning mind you. But development of the supporting cast requires this from Bryce. We have invested a ton of capital in the offensive line. We've invested heavily in WR. We've invested in our backfield. We've invested in TE. We've got a young up and coming offensive minded head coach. The expectation should be for our redzone efficiency to improve significantly. That is not just on Bryce Young. But at the end of the day it will always begin and end with him more often than not. It's always been that way and that's just the nature of the position in this league. And not for nothing but before we drafted Bryce Young nobody was going around here saying we need elite play across the board and top shelf coaching for him to be effective. His biggest selling point was his ability to succeed off script and make something out of nothing. We're certainly going to have to see that come to fruition. Now we wait.
