$10M for 2 years was about what I was hoping for to get somebody who can credibly play the position when needed.  I was afraid that budget was going to get busted.  That was why the idea of Brissett didn't bother me.

The fact he is 35 and he knows his best years are in his rear view mirror is also ideal, assuming we do not do something stupid at #1.  While I am not certain we will not do something stupid at #1, I feel a lot better about our odds than I would have, say, a year or two ago.

Seems like a pretty good pickup to me, based on what (I hope) we need.

I don’t need a mentor / extra coach to have that cap hit. We have a bunch of former QBs on the coaching staff for that role. We could have gone cheaper. 

Who?  2 years 10m is pretty cheap for a backup qb.

Agreed. 

This signing makes it LESS likely that the Panthers draft anyone other than Young or Stroud.

Dalton is a backup NOT a bridge.

or you could look at it as if you if were drafting a QB to start early, for example Young or Stroud you would have gone cheaper as your backup.

There a bunch of QBs who aren’t signed who can sit there and talk CJ through how to prepare every day and point out missed reads and such that wouldn’t cost 10 million.

Next , we will sign Carson Wents and Dalton and Wentz will be competing for the starting Job 

Then there will still be Homer's here defending it , that's why I wasn't crazy about the Riech hire, he was fired , oh its because the Colts were idiots 

Just like we thought the jets were idiots, just like we thought the browns were idiots 

And when we are 3-14 next season , we will be the idiots , if we wanted to continue to shuffle washed up QBs through Charlotte, we might has well kept Rhule

      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.
