Stanford QBs Give Opinions of Luck

"Elway: He's a smart guy, a mature guy. He'll be able to have a voice in where he's going. If it's Carolina [the Panthers own the first pick in the draft], Carolina is bad right now but they've been a playoff team. ... It's a good organization."

My disgust for Elway just eased a little. Always hated him (and Eli) for the way they came into the NFL, but now I dislike him a little less :)

I agree, but I still wouldn't put him in the front office like Denver is doing

Trade down. I'm over this Luck 'will solve all our problems' crap.

Honestly noone with an ounce of football sense thinks that one player, any player, by themselves is going to come in and fix every problem the Panthers have. It might get spouted around a bit (because football jesus is fun to imagine) but in our quiet time we all know there are more problems on this team than QB.

The flip side to that, and the thing that makes trading down if he delcares mildly retarded, is that a franchise QB (making the assumption that that's what he becomes in the NFL) can elevate the team around him. No he won't save us - even if he's an amalgamation of every great QB ever to play the game into one Super Rookie - but of the QBs available he is the most likely to be able to provide the anchor point for the franchise for some time. And a solid player to build functional offense around too...

Run...it's the Panther Police!!:dupe:

Busted for flagrant repetition. But what if you want to talk about a topic? Do we need everyone's approval? I just don't open threads that don't interest me. If the demand is there, why fight it? Or should we go through a screening process where someone approves the worthiness of topics? We could call him, The TOPIC CZAR.

I think we should talk about cake and the fact that not only is it not a lie but also superior to pie in nearly every way.

No, getting him won't solve all of our problems but it will make much more of a difference than any other position. It would at the very least bring a positive vibe to what has become a miserable time period for our organization. As bad as we were this year, there were 3-4 games this season we could have won with the exact team we fielded + better QB play.

    • There's some big assumptions in here - first, I think Canales HAS helped Bryce a poo ton. To pretend he hasn't is asinine. Has he fixed him?  I mean, the dude looks like he could perhaps be a backup or low-end starter now, whereas he looked like he didn't belong in the NFL a year ago. You're talking about a coach that brought one of the worst NFL QBs of all time to a point where he may actually be a low-end starter. That IS impressive. Second, the bolded. Come on - given the offense, the dude is far from "trending towards bust." He definitely needs work but he's shown an impressive ability to get open. He's contributing to an anemic offense. The dude is our leading receiver (though he'll be #2 in yardage by end of season by a little, as Thielen does better per game).  As to his coaching, he had this team competing and believing against 3 of the better teams in the NFL, despite the lack of talent, and despite our QB situation.  Yes, things fell apart vs DAL, and he was outcoached. But that will happen with young coaches IMO.  I don't think it indicates he cant' be better. The idea of "pulling off the bandage" is ridiculous. Who would want to coach here if we fired this guy after one season? 
    • Whatever they are in totality the cowboys are beat up all to hell on both sides of the ball and even that was too much for lil Bryce to overcome.  Bryce defenders have to hype up every other team and trash every other part of the panthers just because of the situation they’ve put themselves in. 
    • JB had a first round grade in the eyes of a lot scouts based on HIS TALENT LEVEL. If not for the injury he would have gone higher in the draft, possibly between the middle and the end of round 1. To get him just before the 50th pick is a steal. He'd be on a 4 year deal. You can't even renegotiate until the end of the season 3. You're basically paying him nothing for 3 seasons. I don't buy into all back are interchangeable. No they're not. You have average backs, good backs, then your great-exceptional backs. The latter category doesn't grow on trees. If a back is special it pays to keep them. The key is knowing the difference between the first two categories and the third one.
