"Panthers invite the general public for QB tryouts" 

within the article........

" Wilks stated, "Its something innovative, exciting and Tepper agreed its our best shot at finding a healthy backup to Eason come this Sunday." Many with the NFL front office are questioning the move while the Panthers organization are busy ordering 100s of new game jersey's with "your name here" on the back for the anxious participants when they show up at Bank of America stadium on Weds afternoon to test their savviness as they compete for the position. "We have former small college QBs, ex high school players and even some people who played in Pop Warner all ready to shake off the rust and test their stuff against others", Wilks elaborated.

Concern about how soon one of them could learn the Panthers playbook within days after being selected to be dressed for this Sunday's game against Tampa, Wilks stated, "It's no problem..........hell McAdoo doesn't know what the hell he's doing and I don't know a thing about offensive plays in the NFL so why would it matter if this new backup QB would know anything?"

Tryouts start on Weds at 1pm sharp........participants will receive a free parking voucher along with a steak and ketchup lunch after completing their tryout. The results will be announced on WFNZ radio during the 7pm sports update.

Jacob Easons passes looked slow to me. What should have been bullets were a beat behind and looked alarmingly pickable.

Scary. I didn't see anything special.

 

He has a cannon. That’s not the thing to worry about. They looked like good balls to me. 
 

Added bonus…his throws passed the line of scrimmage too. 🔥 🔥 🔥

I suspect that if Eason were farther along in the playbook he would have been elevated over PJ before now whether PJ was injured or not. PJ is one of Rhule's guys remember. 

As soon as Darnold is healthy he will either start or backup Eason until Sam is up to game shape. PJ will go to the practice squad or the unemployment line. Wilks just doesn't believe PJ belongs on the team and frankly neither do I.

Yeah, i think if Baker hadn't have gotten hurt PJ would have been unemployed after the SF game.

Since the Panthers are at the bottom of the league in total offense, third-down conversion rate, big plays, 30th in red zone offense, and 29th in passing offense and yards per play, I would like to see them give Jacob Eason a shot at starting.

It is obvious that the team is heading to finish near the bottom of the league this season and will be looking to select a QB in Round #1. Eason is probably not our answer as the starting QB the team sorely needs but with his rocket for an arm, he could bring some excitement to a team that is boring to watch.

They have nothing to lose at this point and a lot to gain if Eason can show some of the talent and outstanding promise he had in high school and college before he was forced to move from school to school and several NFL teams for various reasons.

I played QB in high school many years ago, so this could be the break i have always dreamed of. 🙂

    • 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. 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...
    • Sounds like a plan. Those are the teams we should be mimicking! lol
