Robby is a good WR who looked like poop with Sam. He dominated with Teddy. You know Robby is a good WR. Jerry Rice would look like poop with Sam. Robby can certainly be traded as we're not doing anything in the next two seasons unless we land Watson.

Regardless of what you think about Darnold, the notion that all of Anderson's drops are Darnold's fault is ridiculously stupid.

How's this?

The notion that "Robby's a good WR who looked like poop with Sam" is dumb.

"the notion that all of Anderson's drops are Darnold's fault is ridiculously stupid."

That is not something anyone has said in this thread. You alone said the above, and then attacked it. Do you know what a strawman argument is?

Yep. I also know what a weak argument is.

For reference, here's one.

Darnold isn't out there swatting the ball out of his hands making him lead the league in drops.

True. But Darnold is still statistically the worst passer in the NFL the last two seasons and that's from a clean pocket. You just can't say enough how abysmal that is. I can't blame anyone for mentally checking out in that offense. The decision makers here should have damn well known better and some of this could've been prevented.

I can't recall anyone else folding that quickly.

Said elsewhere that the early success was not an illusion, and it wasn't. Still, the switch got flipped after only a minimal amount of adversity.

Darnold probably has it in him to be good, but you can't be fragile. The league is just far too tough and challenging for that.

In fifty years of watching football, I've seen plenty of guys who looked good get broken, but never that easily.

It was an illusion. As soon as the rest of the league had some film to study of him in our system he was done. He must have blatantly obvious tendencies on film.

Disagree.

Darnold has had good games in the NFL before. He has it in him. But drawing it out of him requires a lot of work.

Could he be salvaged? Not sure but I'd lean towards no. It'd probably take more time and effort than anyone is likely gonna be willing to put forth.

      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. Everyone talks about the most important positions on a football team… backup LT is in the top 10.  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...
