Would Justin Fields have worn #1 if he was selected by Carolina?

Didn't someone else want number 1 and Tepper denied their request because that number is reserved for cam? Don't see why it wouldn't be any different for the rook even if he was a first round pick. Those who have yet to achieve have no right to take away from the accomplishments of those who have already walked the walk.

Retire #1, #89, #58, and #59 already 

at that rate we won’t have enough numbers to field a team in the not so near future

no. Sam Mills is the only number that should be retired and wouldn’t you know it’s the only number that is. it should be kept sacred, not for just fan favorites 

I like high standards, the panthers have yet to have a truly long term defining HOF franchise player to do this. none of those are it. 

wasn't drafted because of a jersey number? stans defying the impossible and embarrassingly outdoing themselves yet again

Shouldn't give it to him, because he's as much to that number as 89 is to Smitty. 

But Tepper and Rhule would have because it's not special to them as fans.

Didn’t tepper say at the ring of honor ceremony for Steve smith that he wasn’t going to let anyone where that jersey number for a long time?

I know for a 100% fact that Justin would’ve asked Cam for his permission. He’s always worn #1 and wanted to do so in the NFL too. He also looked up to Cam being from GA so he likely would’ve thought it would be a nice honor. I don’t know what Cam’s answer would’ve been.

      Gameday Thread: KC-CAR

      By strato · Posted

      He made some excellent throws but he always has made some excellent throws here and there. I don't know what to think, which is what I was apprehensive about. Is he going to have a decent downfield game? Because okay Legette dropped one, but someone was giving stats prior to the bye or during it where he had two downfield completions and one of them was the jump ball that is just launched and fingers are crossed that our guy comes down with it, and yesterday we saw that again. The Russell Wilson school of downfield passing.  I don't feel like that is sustainable, but at the same time you have to do Something to make the defense understand they have to defend that downfield throws. Like i said, confused.  I guess I'm going to review the game for myself and look closely at his mechanics and stuff because if he actually fixed that stuff it explains the better throws. And that has been my biggest objection, or what I see as the thing that makes or breaks his chances, that unorthodox dropback and tippy toe action and not having his feet set which limits velocity etc etc.

      Crazy stat

      By Manna · Posted

      The negative Nancy in me (or objective?) says that they had a bye week to prepare for the Chiefs. However, it’s one thing to have a good plan and it’s another to actually execute it. For all the flack he’s received (from me as well), Bryce seemingly has put his head down and worked his tail off and his play is giving me hope. The first 18-game Bryce showed no progression whatsoever. He gets benched, comes back, and has shown steady progress every week he has started. I think I’m starting to see what the Bryce lovers and unconditional defenders were saying all along, and I hope he can show that on a regular basis for the sake of our QB1 position.

      Some Thoughts on Our Remaining Games

      Yeah, we could still very well end up 4-13 with the 2nd pick.   I think LVR has the inside track for 1, with only a JAX team as a team on docket that could be beatable.
