Does he have a fake smile as well? Just curious how far you want to go to slam Stroud?

I still get surprised how offended people get with anything Cam related, he was awesome but he wasn’t perfect, and that’s ok. They comparison was just regarding one aspect of Cam’s game, not the overall player. And it was an opinion not aimed at being negative about Cam, but highlighting something being undervalued with Richardson.

It is extremely flawed, despite what Thomas Davis says. Any SEC team would be destroyed by the worst team in the NFL. If you argue otherwise I don’t know what to say.

I think people know that reason is out the window in this case and are just letting it be. There essentially is the Young supporters, the Stroud supporters, and Rippadonn is part of a third group. I’ve always admired his passion, but this is something completely different.

I’m a Stroud guy, but coming around to Young thanks to Rippadonn. If he is that strongly against Young, Young has a chance to be special.

I think a poll would be good. Who I think and who I want. Only three players, Young, Stroud and Richardson. Just make all options available, e.g. think Young but want Stroud

It’s like a factory. They find someone young and promising, develop them to an excellent reporter, send them off and bring in someone new. It is pretty impressive tbh.

Everyone acknowledges that he is small. But many feel it is not a huge deal. That where opinions differ. And you can chose to accept that other people have a different opinion or pretend like everyone has to agree with yours.

There was a bunch of “I guess you’re going to no longer support the team” kind of crap a little while back. But if that’s wasn’t you I apologize.

I agree Stroud had the better offense around him while Young had the support of a better defense. I just don’t think Young’s offensive teammates were scrubs, they were still better than most teams they played.

It would have been nice with a few questions about Richardson and Stroud, then we could have heard the difference in the answers, a missed opportunity if you ask me.

Young is a great quarterback, it is just odd to hear what he had to overcome in terms of his teammates when his team most likely was better on paper than everyone but Georgia. Not sure about the moral line, don’t get that reference to be honest.

Totally, I just don’t think we can blame either of them for some team losses. And I might have just missed that it was said I’m jest.

Just getting tired of the you are not a Panthers fan if you don’t agree with me spiel

I do feel bad for Young, playing with that crew filled with nobodies and low ranked players. I’m sure he would have played way better if Alabama was much better at recruiting… Btw, I think Young is great, but this is getting pretty old as well. It’s not like he was playing at Old Dominion.

To be honest, I think you’ve lost your mind as well lol Just trying to add some sanity, but I don’t think I’m adding much value.

I thought you said you weren’t trying to be divisive and say things like “are you still around if…” and “are you not going to root for the team if…” etc. Maybe I confused you with someone else.

The two losses vs. Michigan is a really weird thing to hold against Stroud. Michigan scored +40 points in both games and ran at will. Remember that Young lost both games vs opponents scoring +30 points. Sure they were closer, but this is a team game, blaming a loss on the QB when he couldn’t overcome the bad defense on his own team, yikes. Stroud has his flaws, but things are getting a bit out of hand.

Agreed, this is BS. It has been very clear Tepper enables his people to make the decisions and it has been communicated multiple times.

I don’t think the Panthers would give out any assurances until Lewis and Stroud left the building. But I think the feel confident enough. But that’s just my guess

That first preseason game will be the most exciting one in years

Being a critical thinker is very different from thinking everything is a conspiracy, just saying

I think 99% will be totally fine, most people want this whole thing to be done so we can move forward and get excited about our new QB (as long as it isn’t Levi’s ). What might trigger discourse is a potentially strong “I told you do” crowd. Hopefully that is kept somewhat in check.

I don’t think they are mutually exclusive in any way. I think it would have been awesome if Young was bigger. Sounds like the Young crowd thinks he’s perfect and wouldn’t want him bigger even if it was possible. I think this is the biggest misconception, thinking the only reason someone prefers Stroud is because he’s taller. Complete dismissing his accuracy, taking snaps under center, ability to read a defense etc.

If he is there at 9 it doesn’t mean he would have been if we didn’t move up. Us going to #1 changed things up. But I agree, rational thinking will be out the door if that happens and the melt down will be full on.
