Give us a chance to see if he is a viable backup later on.

Green Bay is in a terrible for a WR. Right now I'd take a 2050 7th round pick for him.

As the eternal optimist I hate to agree with you, but it sure is trending that way.

At this point Ronald McDonald would probably be better than McAdoo.

I hope he fires McAdoo tomorrow and give himself a chance with someone with a bit of creativity.

I think we have to give him more than 6 days. It's kind of tough when your QB accuracy is absolutely terrible beyond 5 yards.

Did you ever consider this might be the OCs call because of film study? If your opinion is this, is the only way to help a QB why doesn't everyone use it? With this type of offense, it also opens up to relying on your offensive line to protect you. Meaning the QB has to have the discipline to stand up in the pocket and make the throws. The QB has to know the routes and coverage and who is most likely to be in single coverage. There probably is more reading to do than a traditional offense. It's a weak argument but, like I said earlier I think you have a preferred QB and don't want anyone to screw it up so you nitpick his skills. He may not be a perfect QB but IMO his performance yesterday opened a lot of eyes and he'll start to be in the conversation of a 1st round QB.

Ahhhh Good Ole REDZONE give you the opportunity to watch whichever game you want and see all the scores. I'm not sure if the Carolina Game is on AFN or not tonight but whichever game is on, I'll watch with Redzone on my laptop.

I wish I could do the same. I can't stomach hockey unless it's the playoffs and the Hurricanes are in it. I'll watch Redzone and watch good match-ups each week.

I want to see how we actually compete. If and how McAdoo adjusts the game plan according to Wilks instead of Rhule. Are they any noticeable changes offensively and defensively. Hope for a W but more interested in how well we compete.

Explain this? Who's giving him help reading the defense. Who's your choice at QB? Usually when someone comes up with a statement like this, they are grasping for things to find wrong with a player so they can have the QB they want. I watched most of the game. Hooker wore out a top 3 team. 52 points against a team that is expected to compete for a National Title. It's not like he managed the game. He moved them roughly 40 yards into FG range is 16 seconds. Please continue to nitpick.

EASILY THE BEST!!!!

@Panthers Fan 69 Your OP should have been thought out more. Did you really think that it would generate a normal conversation? You're talking about removing the Mantra that we should be doing more than ever now. What I recommend is that you let it go and move on. The only thing you are going to get out of this thread is more

But it was his fault Rosen sucked. NOT

Rather have Hooker or another year of PJ, Baker or Sam? LOL I get the "he only plays from the shotgun" but the dude looks legit and I would think he would easily go under center. I'm not worried one bit about his age.

8-10 years is the ceiling. Many QBs go well past 35 if they play well. Brady, Brees and Rodgers just to name a few. Like someone mentioned before. I'd take 8-10 years of good QB play. Hell right now I'd take 5 good years.

Hooker just improved his stock leaps and bounds. His pocket presents is amazing. I was impressed with Young too but if things go sideways and we don't get the top pick Hooker might be an option. That was an amazing game. Defense was pretty much non existent but what a game.

Both of these guys are having a great game. My idea when I posted this was whether Hooker was going to stand up to a top ranked team. I would say he has passed that concern with flying colors. I think he clearly has moved himself up the board. This is a classic battle.

As it should be. If we aren't in a position to get quality players to replace him we might as well hold onto him. Any SB contending team is going to be in the 20s or 30s which basically 2nd tier 1st rounders or overrated 2nd rounder. Taking a 2nd is pushing the 3rd round which mean the player may or may not start right away. Burns, CMC or any other player we need to get optimum trade value. Fitterer has to stand tall and get great deals for us, not give him away that's for sure. Houston, Detroit and Philly each have 2 1st rounders. I'd start with them.

Young looks good too. I like Hooker because of his size. 6'4" and he looks like he can make all the throws. He manages the Pocket well too.

This is the one game this year we can evaluate Herdon Hooker. Alabama @ UT is on now. He's already lead UT to a TD. Take a look and give your opinion on this guy.

I get your disgruntled about the team, but this isn't high school football where you don't get a sticker on your helmet until you do something good. Sam started "Keep Pounding" to remind everyone that no matter how bleak things are you gotta "Keep Pounding". If anything, this is exactly why we should keep it. We are struggling to be relevant again. THE PANTHERS NEED TO "KEEP POUNDING"

Burns is a core player; we shouldn't let him go unless we get a really good offer for him. Fitterer better keep in mind what Tepper said, "I never want to lose on a trade" We'll see.

I could see why Burns wants out. Snow Dropping him back into coverage doesn't give him the opportunity to increase his sack total. Sack totals = $$$$. Maybe he'll have a change of heart now that Wilks is in charge. We still have some leverage with the Franchise Tag. I'd hope we could resign him and not have to go that route but, if we really want to keep him Tagging may be an option.

Wouldn't it be interesting if Wilks cans McAdoo after Sunday's game if our offense looks inept again. Maybe he told him, get this offense going or your next.
