Don’t get me wrong, I’m excited to see Corral. I just don’t see Fitt and Rhule rolling with Darnold or a rookie in what might be their final go-round. 

Neither can afford to. That's why the are going after Mayfield.  It's all part of the process of getting over .500 this season.

Corral needs game speed reps against a defense that spent all week preparing for him. The only way that happens if he's the starter. Maybe not week one, but it needs to happen 

That is the best way for him to learn the game and for us to learn about him. He'll have some painfully bad moments. What you're hoping for is to see enough good to know he's your guy going forward and you can put you draft picks and cap into other areas going forward.

Teams already know what Sam and Baker are, might as well see if Corral can be better than them. Better than it remaining a question mark for another year. None of them really know McAdoo's playbook so that's not really an excuse for the "Vets" aside from having a taste of the real speed of the NFL. They've both gotten progressively worse so the experience isn't trending in their favor.

"Sit" or "Play". Its the age old question about rookie QBs. IMO its whoever has their sh-t together the most at the end of preseason. If Corral is running the offense as good or better than Sam (or Baker, Colt McCoy, Garden Gnome Minshew, whoev's) then he should start. If he isn't, then the other guy should get the green light. hopefully they will be *honest and smart in their Camp evaluations and play the guy who gives us the best shot to win.

*I know that's a lot to hope for

Go and watch the 2010 offense.  It was no where near that bad.

i was thinking about this exact same response 

2010 was fox actively not giving a fug at all

he knew he was fired, he knew where he was going to be working, the whole team knew what was happening, and no one cared. The job of the offense in 2010 was to keep the clock moving and keep the games short. run three times and punt. they weren't trying to do anything

2021 was that bad with the team doing everything they could

just want to jump in and say the 2021 panthers offensive line might have been the worst one ive ever watched

a worse performance doesn't jump right to mind

 

Panthers fans are saying Cam doesn't have it anymore because he couldn't do well behind a "..2021 panthers offensive line might have been the worst one ive (or anybody) ever watched.."

Some fans. You would think Cam would get the benefit of the doubt. Nope.

Well, there is one caveat there. Sam has already looked good/okay in camps before. He has done it here and in NY. What can't be ignored is the 4 straight seasons of that not translating to real games. 

That is honestly why starting Corral makes more sense, even if Sam looks a little better at the time. Sam is a known quantity. He isn't going to be better. Corral might actually get better.

100%. Sam can’t be expected to magically make a leap forward. Playing him means losing 10-12 games.

I mean the nickname. Surely we can fix our guy up with something better than a buffet chain.

Is Corral for sure your “guy”…?

Are you actually constructive on something Rhule & Tepper have done?

      If you wanted Danny Dimes here’s the chance

      By Jackie Lee · Posted

      Strange, every news article and tweet I just searched all mentioned waivers. It is definitely his sixth year of at least 6 games. All I was trying to think of earlier was at the vet min could he beat out Bryce in camp next year lol. He's kinda got the old Darnold issue where he can obviously launch deep balls and qb run at a level Bryce will never achieve, but it sounds like he would be content being like a Josh Allen backup who doesn't throw the whole game plan out the window if he has to come in for a series or two. If we had him and for some reason still wanted to start Bryce he would kinda do what Justin Fields was doing the other night with Dangeruss, coming in for designed runs and maybe some play action/triple option rpo things to go deep. That would be so obvious and sad though. At least Russ can still sling it 40 yards in the air with a flick of the wrist

      Too late to edit above but the quote is from this Diane Russini article in the Athletic: https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5941684/2024/11/23/russinis-what-im-hearing-the-day-the-jets-fell-apart-and-the-broncos-rallied-belichick-best-fits/ Okay.. there you have sorry I left that out the first post.  Also waivers keep the contract intact. That is the major difference in released and waived. It's all in that link from the other post.

      Okay so I am reading something in The Athletic and it says that Jones had to pass through waivers. So I don't know. I looked this stuff up when we were number one there all offseason and I thought it said 4 years in the league got you vested, as they call it.  Vested gets you out of waivers as I understood it. I probably got something wrong, but when I think about the slack quality of journalism these days I wonder about that. So I went and looked, again. Well, well.  For everyone: "When a player has accrued at least four seasons in the NFL, they are considered a vested veteran. When these vested veterans get cut, they are released and their contract is terminated. When a vested veteran is released, they are an unrestricted free agent that can sign with any NFL team, and the team that released them doesn’t need to provide any additional compensation." It runs it all down here, where the quotes came from: https://www.profootballnetwork.com/waived-vs-released-nfl/ As far as Jones, the team turned down his 5th year option so I knew that meant he had 4 years in, because they re-signed him anyway, after turning down the much cheaper extra year.  The Athletic is owned by the New York Times so I shouldn't be surprised. That paper was an institution once upon a time but they let their standards go.
