Because he said it would be "announced" after the game? He said nothing about the game itself being a deciding factor. 

It’s already been announced and it’s no surprise.

Hint- it’s not the one that threw 3 INTs in the last practice and never had a winning season…

Letting your QB2 start in the second pre-season game is not a big deal. I do think the charade between Baker and Darnold is over, Baker has that locked up. PJ has more reps and knowledge than Corral does right now so he's going to get the start to help with evaluating the whole offense. Darnold is being hung out as trade bait for now until nobody takes it and then he'll be cut I assume.

this trade theory is just retarded.   Whats the best case scenario for trading darnold, us eating 95% of his salary for a conditional 7th?

It's no big secret that's for sure.  It may have been sketchy at first due to the head start on the playbook Sam had but it became clear quickly that Sam was not a real threat to start. 

This whole experiment was to sort out the qb depth chart going into the season.  The only real competition is between Sam and PJ for the backup spot this season and this season only until Corral earns it.

Jmo.. Sam's about to be cut.. If PJ or Matt even seem competent.. They are getting him out of the locker Room taking the hit and handing Baker the keys.. For this season.. The only locks on the roster is Baker and Corral now.. If PJ proves anything tonight.. They will feel comfortable getting rid of Darnold..

I’m sure we can eat 99% of his contract and get like a future 7th for him.

Sorry, dude. Walker is just not that good, especially in the red zone.

He can look half decent (sometimes) when there's plenty of space to work with, but once the field shortens it's pretty bad.

He's not an NFL quarterback.

I agree to disagree, Scot.  I think he's more of an NFL QB than Sam.  I'm not saying PJ is a starter.  I'm not saying he's some incredible talent.  But I trust him more than I do Sam, and thus, with what we have, I would rather keep him than Sam.

This doesn't make sense unless the qb1 competition is truly over. They kept saying the starter would be announced after this game. How are you using this game to decide if neither Sam nor Baker are playing? And if you have already made up your mind, why not make an official announcement?

Rhule said a week ago the starters wouldn't play.  Rhule said joint practice were largely for the starters.  But Bill is playing his.  I think it goes back to Rhule copying people last preseason.  Reality was those 2 teams last year were simply only going to expose their studs QBs (Lamar and Allen) to 1 preseason game and he mimicked what they did.

      What top 10 prospect do you absolutely NOT want?

      By Aussie Tank · Posted

      I don't get the Hunter hate. Just imagine his ceiling if he stopped trying to be this 2way freak and focused on one side of the ball

      Is running back on the table for the panthers this draft?

      100%.  You have to play the cards that are dealt.  Not the cards you wish were dealt.

      By ColumbusCounty · Posted

      I'd say its definitely going to be addressed this off-season.  We went into the last draft with a roster of RBs including:  Chubba, Blackshear, and Miles Sanders. We picked Jonathan Brooks in the second and still signed Rashaad Penny afterwards.  Fast forward....One turned into a top 10 back, 1 is injured/out for most if not all the '25 season, 1 retired, 1 will either take a huge paycut or be cut, and the last is a restricted free agent. We brought in Mike Boone as well. Add him to the free agent list also.  We need a physical option.    Which qualifies:  Ashton Jeanty(Boise St): Overall ranked Top 10. Almost 2k yards after contact, 28 tds. Would take our first rounder. My money would be on an NFC East team selecting him. (97.2 PFF run grade) - 121 forced missed tackles.  Omarion Hampton(UNC): Ranked everywhere from 20 - 59 overall. Consensus #2 back after Jeanty. He'll be a second rounder. 1,222 Yards after contact w/ 15 tds.  (90.5 PFF run grade) - 72 forced missed Tackles Kaleb Johnson(Iowa): Ranked from 38 - 69 depending on which media outlet you prefer but generally #3. 2nd/3rd possibly. 1,060 Yards after contact w/ 21 tds.(86.7 PFF run grade)- 66 forced missed tackles Cam Skattebo: Ranked from the 50's - 104. Every mock I do he ends up BPA at some point. 969 Yards after contact w/ 17 tds(92 PFF Run Grade). Probably the best receiving back of the group. 81 forced missed tackles.  If the '24 and '25 draft classes were combined, IMO the rankings would be, in order: Jeanty, Hampton, Brooks, Johnson, Skattebo. I wouldn't take one high but I'd take one for Chubba and Brooks insurance.
