One thing G-man said on Panther Talk last night.

I usually try to listen to Panther Talk on Monday nights (even though I am at work).  I missed most of what G-man said, but I did hear him say  that if Joe Webb plays well enough to make the final roster, then he will make the final roster.  G-man expounded by basically shooting down the idea that he would keep someone at a needier position if they didn't play up to the level of someone else at another position.

 

Much like he has a general philosophy of drafting the BPA, regardless of position, it sounds to me like he incorporates that same ideology when deciding who makes the team.

 

Take it how you want.  G-man strikes me as a man of his word.  I just thought I'd share the parallel.

So Webb had a decent game against a bunch of guys that won't make the 53 roster for either team.

Only way Webb makes this team is if Gettle plans on unloading some salary and drops DA this year or next.

Webb could easily go to the practice squad. DA just got an extension this offseason I believe....he is staying this year. Webb isn't better at QB.

The quote and sentiment are nice but there is some grey area IMO. For example Joe Webb May be a more talented football player than let's say a 5-7 DB but the likelihood of him contributing to the team as a 3rd string QB is less than the lower ranked DB. The DB can maybe work himself into the rotation or contribute on ST.

Gettleman isn't going to even hint at any individual player being cut yet. Not sure what he was expected to say?

As I recall, the question wasn't about being cut, it was about the speculation as to whether or not he would keep three QBs on the roster, in light of Joe Webb's success, in lieu of another position. G-man, in his own kinda matter-of-fact way, basically said the best player would be retained, period.

It shouldn't be forgetten that part of the reason he is here is because he has a similiar play to Cam.  Not nearly as good but could be a better use for us in case of an emergency.  

 

If he displays the same ability in the next couple preseason games than I am all for him making the team.

 

Some gotta remember we can only dress so many of the 53.   But unlike the other positions if an emergency were to happen the 3rd QB (undressed) could be activated during a game.  (I believe that is what the rule says)  However, if he isn't on your roster you are pretty much screwed.

I could see him being on the roster but inactive come game time. I believe we will keep him. I see us cutting Godfrey and also I could see us putting a few players like Philly Brown, Lucas, ect on practice squad. We could cut him and resign him if Cam gets hurt.

      This Bryce Guy (General BY Discussion in Here)

      By CRA · Posted

      PJ's completion % was 63% when starting games in Carolina.  Which I believe is better than Bryce when starting.  And again, 4-3 as the starter here and the LONE QB Carolina has been able to actually win with in the Tepper era.  If you ask a gambling gunslinger to come into blowouts.....they are going to go down in a blaze of glory.  Which he would do.  Yeah, he isn't good.  And gunslingers are supposed to have rockier stats than checkdown QBs.   So....why does PJ Walker have a better comp % as a starter than Bryce Young.  And for every knock you want to make about PJ, you can find something or a skillset that PJ does better than Bryce.   I didn't say PJ had good field vision.  He doesn't.  Tell me about Bryce after he comes off the first read lol.  Let me repeat, PJ Walker is not a good QB.  He is NFL depth and an in house arm.  Bryce Young doesn't belong in a convo w/ Jake and Cam.  He belongs closer in a convo with the backup caliber QBs Carolina was forced into playing.  Which isn't just PJ Walker.  But Kyle Allen.  Moore.  Guys like that.

      Oh I see what you meant by memory. I will trust my memory, I have looked a a lot of those ball charts for Bryce and they trend a general pattern. They thing that has changed that I have noticed more recently is the reduction in the bunching of behind or at  the LOS passes over to his right.  Aside from the quantity of throws recently since the running game has become a more dominant factor.

      Yes but you basically said you are going from a quick skim of those charts without doing the same for Bryce and/or Andy. So you are going memory vs. snapshots. That's not going to be a very comprehensive analysis.
