Tua, really? Have they found out of the kid can walk or run again yet? I mean, that injury is much worse than what Cam is recovering from. Hate to say it, but I don't think the young man will have a professional career and that's a sad thing.

Looks like he will be ok. There is obviously some risk which is the only reason we will have a chance to draft a quarterback of his skill set with our pick. Honestly he probably we be picked before us, but if he is there we should consider it...

Look at the 49ers. They didn't take long to turn it around. I don't want a Defensive minded coach either. I want a sharp offensive minded guru that will alleviate defensive woes by controlling that clock with a high powered offense and knowledge. Albeit the niners have a lot of talent and sucked around 2 years after Shanahan took over but i'd be willing to sit through two years than hope Rivera gets his head out of his ass.

I think the difference is the QB not the age. If you can be a winner with a young qb you want that. The ones that work usually turn in to the next Brees, Brady, etc. If you are paying 30 million a year to an older QBwith mediocre success you obviously arent thrilled with that situation.

Buddy, I just don't like the idea of buying a car from the lot when the CarFax said there was major undercarriage and frame damage, no matter what the salesman and his mechanic say.

Let someone else drop the big bucks on that gamble.

Tom Brady isn't paid nearly what he could be on the open market and Flacco/Brees/Rodgers weren't on hugely massive contracts when they won, which further supports the premise. Perhaps the better questions is to ask how many Super Bowls were won by teams spending a massive chunk of cap (think current going rates) on a QB? 2015 Broncos and... no one else.

 

The amount of money both Jerry Jones and Dan Snyder would throw at Brady would be insane.  Snyder would "win" but holy smokes it would be some coin.

Yeah, we had that discussion before.

If you're going to move on from a quarterback with injury concerns, it's not necessarily the wisest choice to do so with another one.

      Most hated teams

      After Bountygate and the information that came out on the Saints owners shielding pedophile priests in New Orleans it will forever be the Saints numero uno for me. FUG THE SAINTS! I hope this is just the beginning of a long term period of suffering for that shitty organization run by even shittier human beings. #2.Pats/Belicheat #3. Falcons (Mike Vick years then Matt Ryan/Julio running it up) Ryan pooping his pants and 28-3 def makes my bad days always better just thinking of those. #4 Pretty much any franchise fan base thats obnoxious Steelers, Eagles, Bills, Jets, Giants, Cowboys, etc.

      PFF Best Rookies so far: Two Panthers

      By BEASTfromdaEAST · Posted

      Thank God DM used that #8 pick on a bona fide WR1 and not some bum pass rushing prospect like Stewart or someone else. I believe Tet is legit WR1 material and going forward will be our long term answer at that position since we desperately were in need of one once they traded away DJ Moore.  Tet could possibly end up even being better long term than someone who I respect a ton as a WR in Moore. Evans has been a pleasant surprise and great TE/FB depth piece going forward who could make the most of his opportunities.  Any good offense worth a damn in the NFL has 3 TEs that can do multiple things and being scared by Ian Thomas play for years should makes us all appreciate what Evans is quietly doing as a ROOKIE at one of the hardest positions to learn at the pro level.  Keep cooking DM. This season is not over obviously but seeing some growth out of young talent finally is a breathe of fresh fuggin air for once.

      PFF Best Rookies so far: Two Panthers

      By mav1234 · Posted

      Saw this show up in my new feed. Nice to see a couple of our rookies making it into the top 5 so far, even if it is a pff measure... From https://www.pff.com/news/nfl-top-15-rookies-week-9-2025 ... 4. TE Mitchell Evans, Carolina Panthers (78.7) Evans struggled in the Panthers’ tight win over the Packers, finishing with a 41.8 PFF overall grade — third worst among tight ends this week. He was not targeted in the game and played only one snap in pass protection. He did log 15 run-blocking snaps, and although he earned a 68.9 PFF run-blocking grade in zone looks (seven snaps), his 39.0 mark in gap schemes (second worst for the week) dragged him down to a 46.6 PFF run-blocking grade overall — sixth worst for the week. Despite seeing zero targets over his past two games, Evans still leads the Carolina tight end group with a 74.3 PFF receiving grade. He has caught all nine of his targets for 90 yards, six first downs and two touchdowns. Evans also leads the Panthers’ tight end group in PFF run-blocking grade (72.2). He has recorded a 20.5% positive play rate across 175 snaps.  5. WR Tetairoa McMillan, Carolina Panthers (78.6) McMillan had a better day against the Packers, recording four catches for 46 yards. Most of that production came in the first quarter via two 16-yard catches — one of which he snatched from Carrington Valentine’s hands, who was in perfect position to break up the pass. McMillan accounted for three first downs on the day, although Green Bay was able to limit his impact after the catch, holding him to 0.8 yards after the catch per reception. McMillan now has 41 catches for 558 yards — a top-15 mark. He is also tied for second with 19 explosive gains of 15-plus yards. Three of McMillan’s catches against the Packers came between the numbers, bringing him to 22 for 318 yards and 19 first downs (tied for second most) this season. He owns a 26.1% threat rate and a 76.6 PFF receiving grade between the numbers. He also ranks in the top 10 in explosive gains (10) and yards after the catch per reception (5.5) within that area of the field.
