Anthony Richardson has been plagued by injuries and what does his play have to do with Hendon. Richardson was a combine warrior his passing stats in college never showed elite he was drafted on potential. Hendon was an elite passer in college and is near the top of all time Tennessee passing stats. The jury is still out on what Hooker ability at this level is.

I had a neighbor of a customer come out screaming that we were breaking city ordinance. I said show it to me, this fool pulls out his phone and right at the top says AI overview. Did you know sir that there are government websites where you can find city ordinances? He looked completely baffled that AI overview is indeed not law. He told me he was going to go find the ordinance and I never saw him again.

Anthony Richardson has a stronger arm and is more mobile. How is that working out? Stop focusing on raw attributes and not ability to actually play football. That's how we ended up this bad as a franchise in the first place. It's Tepper/Fitterer BS. Bryce Young has the ability to play NFL football. Unfortunately, it's at an NFL backup level, at best. Hendon Hooker has no ability to play NFL football. Same as Anthony Richardson or Jack Plummer or Matt Corral or....

Or maybe he's a reason why they're one of the worst run defenses in the league

Coaching they have clear advantage. Roster depth I dont think they are much better than the Panthers. Cam was MVP level player but one man can't do it alone. Buffalo receivers have been underwhelming. Baltimore was their best win in the 1st week and they got gashed in the run game. The two decent teams faced NE and Atlanta they lost. Had a struggle at home against the 1 win Saints. They appear to be paper tigers.

If you have been around this board long enough, you realize no matter what player you have, they are rarely good enough until they go somewhere else and then it laments why we let them go.

Hendon has a stronger arm than Bryce and more mobile. I doubt the separation if any is as dramatic as that.

Coaching. Roster depth. And like you said they have a mvp

The Panthers are going to win this game today. Outside Josh Allen I dont see where Buffalo has a clear advantage. Their defense has been porous against the run, their safety play hasn't been good, they're starting Poyer today who was on their practice squad. I dont think they have the receivers capable of beating Horn and Jackson on the outside, it just depends on how Evero calls the game if we just sit back in zone and let Allen work it could be a long day but I think he should test whether they have the horses to win 1:1 matchups. Offensively the Panthers need to run, run, preferably alot of Dowdle with Andy taking his playaction shots when available. I think the Panthers dominate this contest decidedly.

Nah. Fairly mild although zero sun.

He was another one of those five year guys that didn't really appreciably seem to develop a lot from Year 1 to Year 5. He was a good college player but not great. Which, in fairness to him, he's been relatively the same guy he was in college. I guess that is the real thing, is it possible for him to actually develop further? That's my criticism of guys like Winston/Howell, they don't appear to have any way to develop. Right now, he does look on track to have a lengthy backup NFL career and for a 5th round pick, that would be a success in my book.

Watch Shaq Thompson actually stop the run today..

Snowing yet? My southern ass was up there late October and it snowed I was like get me back down south.

Good job pointing that out. I remember hearing the news but didn’t remember the date.

He was a highly ranked high school guy. I think those guys are probably worth keeping track of. A lot of the failure comes from huge expectations mixed with immaturity. Which I am not saying that was or wasn’t him it’s just a common thing when you see then not live up to expectations. A lot to deal with at 19 years old. Some mature late, still have those skills that made them stand out. So many fall through the cracks.

A QB that threw for nearly 4000 yds. 21 TDs in his first full season as a QB. God forbid a first-year starter actually doesn't throw interceptions. Just for reference. Payton Manning threw for less yard and more INTs than TD (28-26). So, you're basically saying they should have benched Manning after his first full season at QB.

where is that dude that swore Deion would make the playoffs this year?

Rattler has wildly exceeded my expectations. I figured he would already be on a PS of a different team by now.

Hope for the best but prepare for the worst

Logical. Still, you see certain guys here and there that you think might buck the odds and might be worth that flier. My recent ‘crush’ was Rattler and he is hanging in the last time I looked. And was just thrown out there, which I would not have wanted to do with him.

Today is the Panthers birthday (1993) Perfect opportunity for a win!

As we have seen, no one can predict how good a class of qb's will be until they actually get to the NFL.

That’s a bunch of nothing. Made for TV views and social media outrage.

First, I am still holding out that BY will be the QB we need him to be. Secondly, if he doesn't fit the bill I would rather have a rookie hand picked by our Coach and GM and not the owner. However, sticking with the theme of the opening post. I feel you left out a player I would love to see get a full chance to win a starting job. He's been behind several good starting QBs. I know many of you hate the thought of a Carolina QB playing for the Panthers, but Sam Howell wasn't bad. He threw for nearly 4000 yds in 2023 with the Commanders, not bad considering he has a terrible O-line. He had a 63% completion rate with 21 TDs. The 21 ints are a bit alarming but not necessary something that can't be fixed. Most rookies struggle with INTs their first season at the helm. 2023 was basically his rookie season as he played in only 1 game in 2022.

It gets a lot worse every round.
