Reality: one play (let alone one that didnt happen) doesn't determine a game

 

if you want i can go back a nitpick somethings and tell you how close we were to winning 34-0

 

edit: oh yea and at that time it was 17-14 so you are making A LOT of assumption. they still have to earn their points.

 

 

 

lol if he picks that he can stroll into the endzone. I'm just saying reality is we let them back into that game when we shouldn't have.

Holy crap.  You must be joking.  I guess there is still no age limit on the huddle.  Can we at least make sure posters are older than 5 years old?

 

 

I've been a member of the Huddle for 6 years, it's an opinion and a bold statement. I'm not hurling insults at other members here, stating my view. For someone talking about age requirements you need to grow up.

If they don't tackle CJ on the fullback dive in the second quarter that accounted for over half of their offensive output for the first half, we lead by more than 10-0 at half as well.....

 

You can cherry pick plays all night long.  A division win on the road.  Take it and run, and hope Megatron gets crabs this week.

Opinion?  DA has nothing on Jake.  I don't remember DA leading any team to the Super Bowl.

If you don't know what an opinion is I don't know how I can help you.

 

 

Jake was a good guy, not a bad QB either... but he benefited from having an O-line all on steroids, Stephen Davis, Steve Smith, a defense that bailed him out, etc.

 

He invented the back shoulder fade because he under threw nearly every pass. 

 

He just wasn't close to a top QB, which is fine... we didn't need one.

 

 

TBH, Jake was inconsistent and had trouble with decision making. I really haven't seen that out of Derek Anderson which is something I find very important for in QBs. Thats my opinion.

I like DA, but he never would have taken the Panthers to the Super Bowl especially not in his current state.  He is a very good backup, and the Panthers are lucky to have him for days like today.  But there is a reason he is a backup.  30 other teams could of picked him up to be a starter this past offseason but they didn't.  And somehow you think he is better than Jake?  Nice logic.

So I guess Kurt Warner wasn't as good as Tony Banks and Tom Brady wasn't as good as Drew Bledsoe.

You mean two QBs that started out as backups who became great players?  Anderson already had his chance at starting.  At this point in his career, DA is trying to be a backup.  There is a huge difference.

      Hey You, You Don't Know Quarterbacking

      By strato · Posted

      Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.

      No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.

      Bryce's Achilles Heel Is Not What You Think It Is

      By strato · Posted

      Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
