Honestly, I'd be fine with cutting Perryman.

I don't know what to think. I just really hope a long-term extension for DJ is in the plans.

No one will be happier than me. The stans will just move on to their next chosen one. They didn't skip a beat between Teddy and Sam. Same energy.

It's weird. It's like if you don't engage in Olympics level mental gymanstics to convince yourself that Darnold is a HOF talent just held back by the Jets then you're nothing but a hater. I don't THINK that Darnold will ultimately work out. But I HOPE that he does because that's what is best for the Panthers.

The Darnold stans get triggered by my substantial doubt, but trust and believe I'll be THRILLED if I turn out to be dead wrong and Darnold is an absolute stud.

Show me another young QB who has struggled and needs significant development who is healthy and basically not playing in the preseason.

I imagine I'd find a way to manage.

I don't know if he's being coddled or not. I simply said Rhule said that Darnold was "basically a rookie" and he's clearly not being treated as such.

Being financially set for life several times over should take a lot of the edge off of that pressure.

If we're supposed to just wait until it plays out what's the point of this forum? Why did you do all that typing to punt on having an opinion on anything?

Players who need development need to play in the preseason IMO. Not all "starters" are created equal. If Darnold struggles on the regular season, Rhule is going to be bashed unmercifully for not using the preseason to get Darnold more snaps and he's going to deserve it. That's how it works for coaches. You make calls and if they work you're praised for your brilliance and if they don't you're an incompetent idiot.

We were sold on Darnold by Rhule saying that "he's basically a rookie". As insanely absurd as that statement was, it was also proven to be a half face lie in how Darnold has been handled this preseason. The "basically a rookie" is actually being treated like a seasoned All-Pro coming back from an injury. It's bizarre and baffling but the proof will be in the pudding. If it works, it'll look brilliant. If it doesn't, Rhule will absolutely deserve all the criticism that will come his way.

Seemed like really good roster management drafting Marshall to take Robby's place in a year and pocketing the comp pick Robby would've gotten us. I thought this preseason with Marshall looking good and Shi Smith also showing promise would've cemented that plan. If we end up choosing Robby > DJ, oh wee mayne.

I'm not sure we'll end up proving to have a legit NFL QB on the roster. Teddy was a legit backup.

Well, that return effort left a little to be desired.

I know it's preseason, but these walk in goalline TDs we're allowing are really starting to add up.

Robinson was looking good this preseason.

To be fair, there's a decent chance one of those folks strokes out onstage st BOA.

It's getting very frustrating how hell-bent we are not to play Moton at LT.

LOL @ that concert lineup. Are we trying to turn BOA into a nursing home?

Shi still catching the ball in traffic even though it was sailed OB.

Good tackle by Hartsfield.

All I do is talk football and call it like I say it. If you just want rainbows and unicorns, just ignore people who are actually trying to have a conversation.

It probably was. He went deep because there was nobody back there. Grier probably either missed the throw or missed the read.

I think Grier probably just threw a dying duck. The receiver was running for open grass. There was nobody back there.
