As much as I dislike Rhule being our coach, your wife was right.

Yeah, that makes more sense because he had over 800 yards this year and like I said he practically never ran as a freshman or sophomore. He was specifically told NOT to run because they didn't have a viable backup QB.

It has a lot to do with it when you're already on the hook to pay Darnold $19M.

Except for the teams passing on him thus causing him to drop.

One stat category sums up the "Jimmy G is a bad QB on a great team" better than any other IMO. He is credited with 10 career game winning drives. His stats on those drives? 30 attempts for 44 yards. 1.5 yards per attempt. Two TD passes.

In similar situations I think they're probably surprisingly similar. Yeah, Jimmy is better. Better enough to actually produce significantly better results? Honestly, I doubt it.

Yeah, I was about to say that this is maybe the smartest QB related thing I've seen regarding the Panthers since Rhule was hired.

Huntley threw 30+ passes in five games. The Ravens went 1-4 in those games only beating the Bears. He threw for 2 TDs and 0 INTs vs. the Packers but in the other four games combined for only 1 TD and 4 INTs. Huntley looks like he could potentially become a serviceable backup. I don't see him as a starter at all. The Steelers made him look like a guy who didn't belong in the NFL in their final game.

Both of y'all are embarrassing yourselves and should stop for your own sake.

You need a mix. We're bringing in those core 3-4 year guys this year and the stud next year.

I have no idea how any Heels fan is less than positive right now. Baffling. If I couldn't be positive right now I'd just stop being a sports fan.

Damn, he looks like poo. I hope he's okay. Like seriously. He doesn't look good. Like a chubby late stage spiraling with crippling heroin addiction Layne Staley.

Seems like Rhule is taking a page from the playbook of his boss. When you suck at your job, just hide.

Bingo. Most likely, a new coach is here next year hoping to flip Pickett for a 3rd while he targets another QB. It is what it is. This is what we signed up for when we kept Rhule.

It's not a coincidence that the average Wonderlic score of SB winning QBs is significantly higher than average. Someone posted it earlier. It's close to 30. No, it's not the end all be all but it's a relevant data point to consider.

It's like watching a toddler try to build with Legos. They grasp the idea of the concept but the attempt at execution is straight comedy.

The problem is a lot bigger than Matt Rhule. Who chose to give him a huge 7 year contract, gave him full control over the football operations, and chose to retain him when the entire rest of the world can clearly see he's in way over his head?

Agree. Zero day two picks a big part of it but the bigger picture for me is the reality that I've simply never been less interested in the Panthers as a whole as I am currently.

Yeah and there are great WRs who ran 4.7 and busts who ran 4.3. It's still relevant information and a data point. If the lack of a perfect forecasting record makes an evaluation tool pretty meaningless then it's all pretty meaningless. The reality is it's all just data points and part of the bigger picture and overall evaluation.

34 Also of note, Chinn - 30.

I don't know. I'm just getting he has one.

I doubt just weight would take him off boards. I'd bet on a degenerative back or major joint condition. Football is a brutal sport.

Pickett and Corral... oof. Anything sub-20 is red flag territory so Ridder and Strong are borderline. Cam scored a 21 for reference.

Degenerative conditions don't require a prior major injury.

Always fun to watch the draft as a general NFL fan. Am I excited as a Panthers fan? Honestly, no.
