I don't think we can bench Kyle Allen...

The Panthers need to play the guy that gives them the best chance to win regardless of what consequences it has for Newton, Allen or anybody else..

Who that is right now is the only question that matters.

Yep, and I'm glad I'm not the one who has to make the decision.  It is a good problem to have

 we rushed mccaffrey back today and the running game suffered. 

Bucs have an interior line of Vea and Suh and Linebackers David and White.

They stuffed other good Run games.

I get what you're trying to say but also you're kind of reaching here man. The Run game being stuffed today was not because of Cmc's health. Bonnafon more than likely wouldn't have faired much better.

Foles just won a SB... 

28-43 for 373 yards and 3 TDs vs. 1 INT

I don't think people remember just how pedestrian Dilfer was when they throw his name around. He never threw for over 3000 yards in a season. He only had 5 300+ yard games in his career. He only had 6 3+ TD games in his career. He threw more INTs than he did TDs in his career.

No, you cannot win a SB in today's NFL with that type of QB play.

Being over 50 helps :)

I've mentioned before that people like rushing to judgment; sometimes just because they have no patience, other times because they want to be able to say "See? I called it!"

Old people like me prefer to take it slow.

I'm not too far behind you Mr. Scot. :shades: I like to roll with the momentum and think it would be ill-advised to yank the rug from underneath this thing all in the name of a PR move.

I’m assuming that’s his SB stats? Do you not think Allen or Dilfer would be capable of that with the pieces we have on offense? Complete teams win SBs and we could have an elite complete team here even if Allen is just a Dilfer like QB, though I do think he can be much more than that.

Dilfer couldn't. 373 yards would've literally been his career high. Go back and check my edit. Dilfer sucked.

Having an all-time great defense drag him to a ring and then having a lot of years pass has completely changed people's perception of him and his career.

I think that Allen should be the starter until at least the TEN game. Lisfranc sprain recovery is 6 - 8 weeks. If the team can get thru the stretch of SF, TEN, and GB with at the most 1 loss, then ATL is the perfect defense to get Cam back in rhythm.

If Allen has another good game in SF and it is a win you can't bench him. Ride him till he struggles.

Agreed, he survived the Bucs taking the run away, he should keep playing. And perhaps we could, for once, not rush Cam back in at the very first possible moment as in the past.

I can't really go with that either.

If you make the decision that he's your starter, you need to stick with him even if he does struggle.

Every quarterback is going to have struggles. If you're swapping starters anytime somebody has a rough game, you become Jon Gruden.

(or Steve Spurrier)

No, that leeway should only be given to the franchise QB. Kyle is trying to replace a $100m MVP. The seat is and should be hot.

      DJ Moore. The quitting WR

      By fieryprophet · Posted

      This play was never designed to go to either DJ or Odunze. The primary read is Burden who is stymied early, with the outlet being Kmet if Caleb doesn't like the option for Burden. Given the situation it's pretty obvious the simple play is to take the free yards with Kmet, or if you want to be aggressive just wait a beat longer for Burden to uncover on his double move. If Moore was ever going to be a viable target in this play then Caleb should have started out reading Odunze to hold the safety in the middle and then coming to Moore, but because he started the snap staring down the right and then came back to the middle late it made it where the safety's leverage remained to the outside of Moore, so he would never have imagined that pass actually being thrown to him in that situation. Realistically DJ's best option in that context is to just occupy the safety to leave a hole open for Caleb to get it to Burden, which is probably why he throttles down vs carrying the safety across.

      2026 Mock Drafts

      By panfanman · Posted

      Even with Sonny Styles still on the board I thought it's a no brainer to address the Oline after Icky's injury.  And how can you pass up Fano at 19 given our situation. Then the rest of the draft just kind of made sense with maybe the exception of Klubnik.  But if Canales can fix him and Young goes down. . .I think it's a solid pick. What do you think of this draft?

      When we didn't trade him to the Rams or the Bears (I believe the Bears said they would take one of Brown/ Burns/DJ Moore) we should have just signed him and kept him.  We should have traded him to the Rams obviously and we should have kept DJ and traded Burns.  We made all three wrong choices with Burns lol.
