If Baker does come to Carolina that week 1 game against the Browns would probably to biggest talked about game for that week. The NFL wants storylines so it's a good possibility he is coming to the Panthers. I'm not a Baker Mayfield fan but he is without a doubt an upgrade over Sam Darnold. And it would give Matt Corral more time to develop.

The national sports media outlets would literally be jerking off all over themselves for that storyline. We might be the feature game for the week if that does happen.

It's rather strange that anyone thinks a team would or should say anything about it.

Teams say things they just do so via unnamed "sources". Fans are going to do what they do...discuss. Strange is coming to a Panthers community and wonder aloud why people are talking about this.

Gotta admit that looks pretty hypocritical...and / or stupid.

It's both. Basically admitting you're willing to look the other way if the skill part of the equation is right and stupid because the Panthers think putting up this front about Mayfield will make folks forget about them being just fine with bringing on Watson and all his baggage when all it does it does is highlight it IMO. Every article after a trade for Mayfield would remind folks about the Panthers striking out on the Watson sweepstakes, especially since Watson is a Brown.

I'd say people have noticed.

As shitty as it sounds I think Carolina is concerned about Baker’s personality clashing in the locker room more than any off the field issues. Watson (appears to be a terrible person) never had any locker room issues that I’m aware of. His teammates typically spoke highly of him.

If one didn't know better they might get the impression that they are trying to work out a long term deal for Baker with the background check they are doing on him. One would think they were going to give up a couple of 1st round picks or something doing all this do diligence on him.

I hope that's not the case!

      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.
