ESPN Talking Points

[NCstoner420]

What's with all the 'rookie QB' talk. Did Clausen and Anderson get traded? Yes, we do have a rookie QB. We have several rookies, so does everyone else.

Anderson is doing everything he can to not play and Clausen is just keeping the football warm for Newton.

[Carolina Crazy V2]

Skip Bayless is a fugtard.

well, Matt Ryan wasn't the only QB on the Falcons roster in 08......

point is Cam unless something crazy happens will be our QB the majority of this season.

[Clicheking]

Agreed, we a easily more talented than the Bills, Dolphins, Broncos, Seahawks, and maybe a few more. The NFL is a what have you done for me lately league, its up to us to prove it.

[CatMan72]

A professional external scouting service would care to disagree... I'll go with them.

[TheRealDeal]

Redskins, 49ers, Raiders, Bills, Dolphins, Jags, Bengals, Seahawks, Broncos...anyone else?

The Dolphins have a pretty good roster. Their defense is better than ours and they have a lot of weapons on offense as well.

Everyone else I pretty much agree with.

Not totally related, but I caught the tail end of Mike and Mike yesterday and Greenberg said something to the effect that he thought Clausen would start the entire year. He seems to think they'd do this in order to entice other teams to make a trade offer after this season. I really wish they just wouldn't talk Panthers when it's clear they have no idea what's going on with the team.

You can add the Browns to the list, and possibly the Vikings, too.

Cowherd isn't as bad as everyone makes him out to be.. I still listen to his show from time to time..

Agreed, I listen to him most days.... though he may say things you don't want to here, he usually back up his opinions with valid reasonings. I don;t always agree, but I very rarely feel like his opinions are out of wack.

[Proudiddy]

Skip Bayless said what?

Cool.

Expect the opposite and call Vegas.

They start doing two'a'days tomorrow. Carolina and Denver.

[TheRealDeal]

We might as well put all 31 teams up there...someone said earlier in this thread they'd take our 11 against any in the league.

Homerism running rampant up in this bitch

[TheRealDeal]

Skip Bayless said what?

Cool.

Expect the opposite and call Vegas.

You expect us to win the superbowl?

Don't call Vegas, call me. I want us to do well but I'll take free money everyday of the week and twice on Wednesdays.

[Chaos]

Just wait. Once these so-called experts see that the Panthers can score a touchdown in the preseason, they will change their tune. Until then, we are the same team that finished DFL a year ago, added no significant veterans we didn't already have on the roster, and throw in a rookie QB who has yet to prove himself at this level.

Again, shouldn't look at this through too narrow a lens. We all know that new coaches/new scheme plus our talent should equal much better results. Idiot analysts see a 2-14 team that kept its core intact, plus added a rookie QB to compete as the starter.
