Panthers mocking certain huddlers.

People often mistake lack of arm strength with deep ball ability. There is some correlation but pretty much any QB even in college can put air under the ball and get it 50 yards down the field. Arm strength is back footing a 50 yard throw or throwing a frozen rope on a 15 yard out from the opposite hash.

he's already lead quite a few in his career.  he's hoping we'll get one as a Panther pretty soon

And by quite a few, you mean five.  Two since 2014.  That took place in 51 games with 41 starts.

Listen, TB5 is our QB, I want him to do well.  But it's fair to say he's still got some things to prove.  His injuries have really hurt his career up to this point.  So far, he's 0 - 3 with the Panthers when he's had an opportunity to lead a game winning drive.  It's certainly something that I'd like to see him improve on.

Every QB in the NFL can throw deep.  What Teddy has a problem with is throwing deep well

He can do it well enough. He's not an excellent deep ball thrower like a Jay Cutler or a Josh Allen but uh

Teddy can also do things that those QBs can't do as well.

Idk why everyone acts like its deep ball or bust in the NFL.

He lead a 4th quarter comeback in limited time last year.  Two game wining drives in the 4th quarter last year.  In his career, 41 starts, he has lead 5 4th quarter comebacks. That is pretty damn good. Has he as a Panther yet? No.  Would I like to see him do so? Yes.

He's got plenty left to prove.  But nobody is saying otherwise.  It is worth noting that he has done plenty of what posters claim he hasn't before (from scoring inside the 20, to throwing deep, to leading 4QCB, etc), so perhaps there's more issues than just Teddy at play here, eh?  He's part of a developing offense.  Doesn't mean we need to hate on him.

      Texas A&M Nic Scourton vs. Purdue Nic Scourton

      By Icege · Posted

      Many Panthers fans are already excited about second-round selection Nic Scourton for a variety of reasons including but not limited to: the Panthers needed to recharge the position group, Scourton had a late first-round grade according to many (including the Panthers), and he fit this season's modus operandi of stopping the run now and forever. However, Scourton was seen early on as one of the top-3 EDGE guys in this class but fell due to not having quite the season at Texas A&M as he did prior at Purdue (his sophomore season). It's been revealed since then a few different things that speak to that dip in production... Texas A&M, for one, requires each player on their line to be able to hold two gaps. This also explains why we saw low production across the board from the other two TA&M prospects but were still being heavily touted. Scourton was also said to have bulked up to 280lbs in order to fulfill this role and noticeably suffered from it. He's expected to play this season with Carolina at 255 - 260 which is very different from most situations. In most situations, teams are wanting players to gain 15 - 30. Since Scourton is going to be playing at his Purdue weight, I thought it would make sense to dive more into that tape. Y'all... we might have gotten something special... Let's take a quick peek at the stats before we start drooling over some highlights. First, a summary of the last two seasons for Scourton: Second, the game splits: The first thing that pops up for me is how Scourton's sack numbers were cut in half his senior year. We've already pointed out issues with scheme that impacted the TA&M linemen from racking up numbers, but seeing the game splits it's clear that Scourton didn't exactly feast on inferior competition while at Purdue. He had two two-sack games (vs. Michigan (2023 - 2024 champs), Indiana) and a 10-tackle game (vs. Nebraska). I also see the 2024 games where he went up against two top-10 tackles (Will Campbell from LSU + Armand Membou from Missouri) that I watched leading up to the draft.  For those who just want a summary: Scourton looked elite at Purdue and is going to be rotating in often during his rookie campaign. I originally had him penciled in as the second-string, strong-side edge defender behind Clowney but I wouldn't be surprised to see the team have him and Pat Jones II moving around when they rotate in in order to find where Nic looks best. Here's a highlight reel to replace that Cialias you lost in your recliner tonight:   For those that like to use their own eyes: Below I'll be linking the linking the five games I've mentioned above. If you plan to watch all of them, I highly recommend going in the order listed as that will allow you to see him vs. Campbell and then Membou while dealing with the aforementioned things he dealt with at Texas A&M before seeing him look unstoppable in 2023 when he was allowed to play both at a comfortable weight and in a scheme that didn't require him two cover two gaps nearly every play. vs. Will Campbell (2024) vs. Armand Membou (2024) vs. Nebraska (2023) vs. Michigan (2023)   vs. Indiana (2023)

      PFF raves about our draft. The best class in the whole draft?

      By Tr3ach · Posted

      Yea, i honestly think he had almost as much say as Dan.  One of the main reasons I think that is Eager has said before he was ever with the Panthers, that you trade away picks for a qb and for any other position you do pick swaps, and that's exactly what we did.

      Shaq Thompson Remains a Free Agent

      By MHS831 · Posted

      For a LB that is a long career.  They take a beating.  Shoulders and head.  My favorite LB of All Time--Junior Seau--had a 20-year career--the average career for a STARTING MLB is 5.6 years.  I really think Shaq is done, but if he can play, it does not mean that he should.   Think about Morgan's career--7 seasons.  Luke's career--8 seasons.  Beason played only 93 games over 10 years--only 5 seasons where he played 15 games or more.  The other 5 seasons?  No more than 5 games per.  So basically, the average starting MLB plays 90 games in his career.  Shaq has played 123 games and was pretty injury free until the last 2 seasons (6 games total).
