Kyle Allen is an inexperienced but good backup qb who is learning!

Kyle Allen enters Week 9 with the lowest PFF passing grade on clean dropbacks (61.4) among the 31 NFL quarterbacks with 100 or more clean-pockets on the year. He has thrown four touchdowns and three interceptions when kept clean this season.

This is why Dj Moore Samuel and the forever open Olsen dont have more yards and our oline is better then advertised. He cant make medium to deep throws and has a problem with going throgh his progressions. He is however a great backup QB so dont think im completely pooing on him. The game just hasnt slowed down for him, its progression 1...check down to CMC.

He was experienced enough to only get sacked 6 times the first half,..

I mean, I was a Kyle basher more than a supporter and for lit up for it by a lot of people.

with that being said— I don’t think anyone would have had a good game with that passrush.

maybe if we had some intermediate or long passes that had actually connected for touchdowns and made them backup,. Or even short passes that gashed them bad like they did us,..  Maybe that would have backed some of that off. Maybe at least give us a more respectable chance.

being able to have the receivers step up and gash them, extend drives and rest that poor defense that spent all day on the field getting murdered might have changed things.

thats a lot of mights and maybes

He’s a back up quarterback. He came in and made a few contributions. Helped the team on short notice. And then: He got roasted against the league’s best pass defense, on a windy day on the road. Like I’ve said, it’s hard to be a game manager when you’re down 21-3. People need to relax. He was never going to replace Cam Newton. Quit letting people on Twitter and really stupid people in the media make you feel threatened about that.

Most of us already knew he was nothing more than a backup.  How good he actually will be is just a guess.  My guess is he isn't going to be taking anyone's job anytime soon, if ever.  I certainly wouldn't count him to be Cam's successor.  That guy isn't on the roster.

A back up QB is really for 1 to 3 games as a filler, not to carry a team. He past his point of contribution with 4 wins in games. The league has figured him out and now we're stretching it. Maybe that's another reason we drafted Grier but he just didn't get it fast enough but has more potential for 2020 and beyond. At least has the skills. Hope Cam comes back for the following week but again no promises he won't be rusty either.

Just like inexperienced threads as this one is.

    • https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/46683459/2025-nfl-offseason-tiers-32-teams-best-worst-signings-trades-draft-barnwell Slightly above expectations Highlights: Trading WR Adam Thielen, signing RB Rico Dowdle (one year, $2.8 million), drafting fifth-round TE Mitchell Evans   Disappointments: Re-signing CB Mike Jackson (two years, $10.5 million)   The Panthers chose the right time to move on from Thielen, who had been productive in Carolina before being dealt to Minnesota just before the season. He has been lost in the shuffle there. While the Panthers won't see the fourth-round pick that forms the bulk of the return for Thielen until 2027, getting out from what was owed to a player who has 47 receiving yards in Minnesota is an easy victory. Dowdle has been a revelation since moving into the starting lineup after Chuba Hubbard's injury, becoming one of a handful of players in NFL history to produce consecutive 200-yard scrimmage games. The former Cowboys back was averaging 3 yards per carry before the opportunity, so I'm not sure I would count on him playing like Jim Brown the rest of the way in a rotational role alongside Hubbard. But it's hard to argue that Carolina hasn't already gotten its $2.8 million worth out of the 27-year-old back. Most of Carolina's biggest moves are either tracking to be right around expectation (drafting wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan) or have been impacted by unexpected injuries (signing defensive tackle Tershawn Wharton). Jackson was a pleasant surprise as a starter in 2024, and he hasn't been terrible this season, but most of the big plays against Carolina have come on throws against the former Seahawks cornerback. Overall, though, this has been a very reasonable offseason for the Panthers
    • How would you have taken the guy who was picked ahead of us? That makes no sense.
    • I am not denying that things were said. That wasn’t my point. But carry on this will go nowhere.    Oh snap, the post calling him a liar was like three posts before you jumped in.  what do you get, a post a page?
