You may have hit on something. It would be great to see the Panthers have a hurry up type game plan installed for him Sunday.

Darnold's football IQ is too poor from everything we've seen to ask him to run a hurry-up/no-huddle offense

I would’ve been curious to see Sam behind a competent OL but Sam seemed to be worse last season whenever he had more time 

More time equals more time to think which for Sam does not lead to good things 

Which in turn does lead to good things for the Panthers. This is an important game for us to lose, along with the Steelers game. Lions should beat us.

The funny thing will be your head exploding if he goes off Sunday 

I'd love to get revenge on the Broncos so not sure what you're insinuating. I could see him playing okay as much as I could see him throwing multiple picks. It's what he does. Only crazy folks believed he would become a franchise quarterback here. But of course you fit the bill there with your constant worship of a running back that no longer plays for our team.

Panthers coach Steve Wilks named Sam Darnold starting quarterback for Week 12 against the Broncos.

Wilks delivered the news personally to the Panthers quarterback room on Tuesday. This could be a one-week thing with a quick hook for P.J. Walker's return, or Darnold could take the opportunity and run with it. Denver's defense is not an easy matchup, so it's hard to see Darnold balling out. But we would have said the same thing about Walker before he beat the Buccaneers earlier this season. This probably is a good move for D.J. Moore's fantasy status as Baker Mayfield never seemed to be on the same page with Moore

Lol still not sure how that motivates him to play better though.  Darnold got benched here for a broken Cam Newton, couldn't beat out trash Baker Mayfield, and will probably get benched again for PJ Walker.  

Hell if anything Darnold got even worse leaving the Jets.  So really he has no reason to be paying attention to Wilson/Jets.  And I doubt he is anyway, it has no relevance to him.

I dont agree that he will be motivated by NYJ.. I was just interpeting the tweet. Personally, I dont think Sam Darnold gives a fug whats happening in NY. If anyting he is more motivated to audition for his next job this sunday or win a game for his team.

      Gameday Thread: KC-CAR

      By mav1234 · Posted

      KC has a very good defense this year. It is 5th overall. Yes, still worse than last year, but their offense is considerably worse. Their passing D may be their "weakness" but they still allow fewer than 20 ppg. BY completed several deep passes yesterday, and he was able to threaten downfield in ways he didn't seem capable of before the benching. I'm not necessarily worried about his ability to connect deep anymore. What to me was impressive was that he did all this without a run game. We used the pass to set up what little running success we had. Wild.

      Bryce developing before our eyes

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      Solid and fair assessment.   I will say, one of the big things I noticed yesterday was that he wasn't shy to step up into the pocket in the face of pressure.  He's trusting the IOL.  And they took care of Chris Jones yesterday.  We had clean pockets but also good success rate vs. pressure which just hasn't been the case with Bryce.   If he has more confidence the OL gets it done and he can navigate and step up for throws, that's huge.  It's one of the biggest things that's held him back.  He was previously bailing quickly and just too easily throwing away or making dead plays.     He was finding his 2nd to 3rd reads within structure/without bailing in the pocket.  That was nice to see, as much concern I have with him.  And the overall limitations will always be there. Time to back it up this week against the Bucs.

      Some Thoughts on Our Remaining Games

      By 45catfan · Posted

      Suddenly the Cowgirls look like our best chance for a win remaining. I think the Bucs are playing better than the Falcons of late.  Our lone game versus the dirty birds is in the ATL where we always struggle.  The Cardinals are marginally better than I thought they would be. We are not beating the Eagles, they are starting to roll. I'm saying two at most, next week at home versus the Bucs and the Cowgirls.
