Panthers organization has claimed another victim. They never should’ve put him on the field last year with that horrible supporting cast. Now we get to roll with Dalton who might get us 5-6 wins and no possibility of drafting a top tier QB.

There doesn't seem to be a Caleb Williams in this draft and there are 5 or 6 QBs projected around the same (1st round). Beck, Ward, Moss, Sanders, Ewers...unless Dalton goes on a Flacco-esque playoff run, at least one of those guys will be available if Canales wants them.

Canales told him what to do he isn’t doing it. That alone is cause for being pulled.

123 plant throw.  He did it in the preseason. 

He may be able to adapt if he takes serious time and completely dedicates himself to rebuilding that tippy toe abomination into NFL worthy form.  It is going to take him serious time to evolve into sound technique. 
He has to maximize what he has; he will never thrive doing the stuff his way. IMO. Those ducks.

Baker is undersized but he's "normal undersized" and he has a legit NFL arm.

Bryce is historically small and has one of the weakest arms on an NFL roster. Bryce Young is cooked.

Baker is also a natural competitor/dawg. I don't really think Bryce is gonna bark at anyone or ever get involved in a scrum in the heat of the moment.

Sam Darnold won here too.  For about a month.

Right. Darnold will 100% regress to the mean in a few games.

Baker is doing great, good for him.

The media, however, is acting like both of these players started their career here and we failed them.

Yeah, I believe in Baker. I think he's gonna be fine. I don't think he's ever going to be a elite but he's a solid middle of the road starter. Darnold is Darnold. He looks good for a few games but as soon as opposing DCs gets a few games of film on him in a particular offensive system it's a wrap. The guy just be situationally predictable as fug because once they get him dialed it's just game over. He turns into typical Darnold.

Yeah , agree. I made note of that too. They are just worthless. Dishonest but it helps their case so it's okay. If they do it.

Darnold looks different to me this time. He’s no loner panicking or getting happy feet when pressured, steps up into the pocket and delivers the ball. I am definitely rooting for him to succeed

      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.
