Where does Carson Palmer rank in QBs the Panthers have faced this season?

Looking at career or this year? He is having a career-best year, but I think if you look at those we've faced this year, I wouldn't mark him in the top three.

I'd rank them: Brees, Rogers, Luck, Eli Manning (hard to argue with the Super Bowl rings), Wilson, Ryan, Palmer, Bradford, Romo...

Both Winston and Mariota have the opportunity to really zoom up there, but they're rookies so it's not really fair to judge them in the crowd. Bortles is on his way up as well. We'll leave Cousins, McCown and Mallet in the unranked category.

I just don't see him as being the big QB threat they are making him out to be. He's good, he's experienced and he's been coached to play his best. I just don't see him as elite, but more of a benchmark QB, i.e. if your QB is at Palmer level and above, you've got a good starting QB. Below Palmer on the list, you aren't going to be competitive week in and week out.

Did you seriously say Bradford?

Palmer is Matt Ryan with better receivers.  A career filled with underachieving and big game chokes, that's Matt Ryan.  I don't see how anyone is worried about this loser coming on the road and winning a conference title game.

good comparison

      Watching games this year again and Bryce missed a wide open XL many times and some of them were in the endzone. I get the kid has mental lapses and hasn't broke out yet, but this is year three on a rookie deal! Cutting bait now is too early. If he hasn't gained anymore trust from his QB, posted any highlights, little production, or outright gets beat out then we can talk movement.

      Samesies   I truly may just cash completely out of Panther football if we give him a long term deal that isnt necessary.  I have watched NFL for 50 years now and I can without a shadow of a doubt say you cannot win consistently with BY.  Way too many limitations to deal with.   I may come back around in 3 years when the inevitable happens and all parties are either cut and/or fired.  Giving him a deal before this season so you hopefully can get him cheaper in case he "blows up" or if you truly believe that he will has to be the most moronic decision a gm can make when the evidence is laid before you with different players

      This is the one! I was at that game and all KB had to do was lay down on the corner after the pick or make an obvious tag while he was down. He had already ran a lazy route. Then if Cam would've just walked to the sideline like most elite QBs instead of trying to make the tackle.  A lot of people bring up the TJ Watt hit, but he just reaggravated a bunch of scar tissue from that play. And every Cam hater said that the running did him in and it was a dive tackle attempt on an interception that initially began the shoulder deterioration. He still went to New England later and would've got them in the playoffs had their A team not sat out the covid year. We quit on him too early. But hey how good was Teddy? Am I right?
