The Carolina Panthers cannot develop a Quarterback

The Carolina Panthers cannot develop a Quarterback

Been seeing this quite a bit on the board lately.

"Joe Flacco would have not developed because our coaches suck."

http://www.carolinahuddle.com/forum/carolina-panthers/19844-knowing-everything-you-know-now-who-when-would-you-have-replaced-jake.html

"Why waste a draft pick when the Panthers don't have the coaching to develop a Quarter Back?

http://www.carolinahuddle.com/forum/carolina-panthers/20227-everyone-wanting-expecting-panthers-draft-qb.html

Etc, etc.

Yet you have many of the same posters clammoring for Matt Moore who's been on the roster for 3 years to start.

Apparently we can develop Matt Moore but not a draft pick?

At some point talent makes coaches look good.

As Joe Flacco would have in 2008.

And so Mike Mccoy now the OC with the Broncos sucked. So does Rip Scherer our current QB coach.

But somehow an undrafted free agent made the Pro Bowl for the Panthers in 2005. Must have been the coaching he received when he completed 50 passes for the Saints in 5 years?

So what is it the current Panthers staff develops well?

Running backs?

Deangelo Williams is a star quality performer that waited 2 years to get the starting nod for the Panthers.

Talent always makes coaching look good.

Having missed Joe Flacco in 2007, do what's necessary to bring QB talent to the Panthers in 2010.

Matt Moore has not been developed into a starter quality QB, otherwise he would have at least been #2 on the depth chart. He doesn't look like he's made any significant strides since coming to the Panthers.

Jake had his best years shortly after joining the team, he was really developed in NFL Europe (along with a guy named Kurt Warner). His pro bowl was for the 2004 season and it's all been downhill since then.

Really every QB we bring in either stays the same or gets worse. No this franchise can't develop QB to save their lives (or possibly jobs).

you know if we had a 2000+ yard power running game, like the 2000 Ravens, and a defense that was one of the stingiest defenses in points allowed of it's time, like the 2000 Ravens, we could be looking at a superbowl contender here.

I mean pretty much everything else would have to be that close to perfect to get to the superbowl with the QB position the way it is here and now. I don't know, I guess it must be easier to do that than draft a QB and develop.

Yep.

Trent Dilfer was awesome

But with a weaker running game than ours the Ravens won 2 playoff games last year against the Dolphins and Titans. ;)

But Flacco would have failed here.

    • The only WR that makes sense in the first is KC Concepcion. He fills multiple roles in the offense and is a PR specialist.
    • That depends upon what happens with receiver this year and what happens with free agency next year. Hopefully we'll be good by addressing receiver this year (regardless of whether we snag one in the first round or not). If we don't and are unlucky enough for to Coker get hurt (and X solidifies his bust status, and JAGs be JAGing), then we may be fùçked! But I assume that Dan Morgan and company will feel compelled to look for answers in free agency and use that to set up the draft just like this offseason.  Reality is not as simple as we drafted this position X times in a row in the first. If you're suggesting that we could draft a position in the first four times in a row, that's not likely. At some point probability has to be taken into account. I mean, how many years in a row can you be unlucky with one position?  As I've said at times before, you try and plan for the long term personnel-wise and cap-wise of course, but things happen so, in a sense, you still must look at each season--each "team" if you will--unto itself each season. So many things can happen between now and then. A major industry can profoundly impact the bigger picture (like this year), someone could offer you a trade proposal that you can't resist, players might not have progressed to your expectations--you know, things like that. Moreover, you have to be aware of the dynamics of each draft class, including the fact that there could be unexpected draft risers and fallers during the college season. That's a lot. As of today, we expect the 2027 draft to have more exclamations than question marks at OT and the QB class and WR group is expected to be exceptionally strong. We'll have a clearer picture of whatever we'll have to focus on next year at this time.  Lastly, keep in mind that there's always more than one way to get you to where you want to go. The yearly puzzle is not static, it's dynamic and complex.   
    • I'm fine with Thieneman or McNeil-Warren.. Rodriguez won't last until 51 so they would have to trade up, he may end up being a late first round selection. Anthony Hill Jr. is more likely to be available. I don't expect defense in the first round now after the murmurings of finding another weapon for Bryce.
