we didnt even try to sign him last time. Jeff Garcia tho, is a winner. I don't know if the cap would allow it. but lets face it, i know i will get criticized, but Garcia is better than Delhomme. idk about his attitude, but the guy, when surrounded by talent (which may or may not be able, you judge), wins football games. Not to mention he has taken 3 different teams to the playoffs, and has been in multiple Pro Browls.

As long as we also go to a completely different offensive system (in mid-season).

We could have had Garcia the last time he was available and we needed a QB. We didn't even reach out to him, opting to go after A J Feeley instead.

With no opening on the roster, and A J Feeley already two weeks into his "crash course" what on earth makes you think we'd go after Garcia now? :nonod:

how many times does this have to be said? you can't just magically plug a quarterback with a certain skillset into an offense that is contrary to his abilities. Garcia is a WCO QB for a reason. To insist that he'd be just fine in our system is more than just asinine, its ...its... uh... REALLY asinine. yeah.

delhomme is a better option than garcia, at this point.

Garcia's not all that consistent on the longballs. Not a good flaw to have in an offense that prefers chucking it downfield over short passes. His arm strength has generally only been so-so even when he was younger, and now he's old. the mobility isn't what it once was either.

He's got the ideal skill set for the WCO. But whenever he's played outside of it he's wound up benched, and in favor of guys nobody would mistake for superstars.

      I just want to see a big guy with an NFL certified cannon arm suit up for the panthers again. To me, it will show that they are at least  trying to take the QB position in the direction it needs to go.   Will he throw picks? Yes. Probably a hell of a lot, but (for now) I’m strangely ok with that… for now. I at least need to see a dude that CAN make the throws with some semblance of accuracy.  This is the time to see what the QB whisperer is made of. The offensive talent is there. It’s certainly better than most rookie/journeymen QBs will ever step in to. If he can get a random dude playing at a JAG level, then I might be sold.  Andy could really surprise in the Buffalo game. He (for now) still has enough arm for Tet and XL to show what they’ve got, but we all know it’s only going to be good for 3-4 games, max. He has vet savvy, and that does account for a lot. He also has a full week of practice with all the snaps to prepare.  My best case scenario going forward: Andy plays the next 2 games nobly (winning one would be a huge bonus) giving White a chance to learn some of the playbook and develop chemistry with the players. Serviceable Andy turns in to old man Andy in game 3 and White takes the field after halftime.  A high ankle sprain (lol, sure it is) is an injury that can buy the team a LONG time for BY to ride the pine…. Maybe even IR. His peak trade value is now. Get what they can for this albatross. He’s now shown that he can be a mid level backup which does hold a significant value for the right team.  Not even in my wildest dreams do I see White being anything more than a JAG, but that’s ok. JAGs with a big arm make great bridge QBs that at least won’t have your play makers stagnating. Keeping BY under center is a 100% recipe for stagnating high ceiling (Tet/XL) dudes and/or not allowing them to take the next step in their development. Why even practice the good half of the playbook if the QB can’t make the throw? After a while, you’ve now got high ceiling guys who can only run a limited route tree. No thanks.
