tua looks to have a noodle arm out there. he has no zip on the ball 

herbert would have been too risky that high with what he showed at oregon. 

Just depends on how he interviewed and how his whiteboard work was. I didn't like what he showed at Oregon either, but you can't blame the guy for doing what the coaches are asking him to do.

Teddy would probably still be starting. Heck, they only started Herbert in San Diego after Tyrod Taylor got hurt.

I have to admit I don't know how good Herbert would look behind the offensive line we have.

I agree wholeheartedly with this. And I don't think we can fully judge Teddy without taking the line play into context. 

There are great weapons in the run game, excellent wide receivers, good play calling -- but that line, while it isn't giving up massive sacks right now it just looks weak and unable to impose its will on the opponents. Tough to play QB back there for anyone. Still, it's better than last year's.

If Herbert were starting for us we’d have at most one loss. I would have hated the pick, I didn’t like him, but man I was wrong. 

I feel the same way about this statement as I do somebody saying we'd be 9-0 if Bridgewater "was more clutch."  This team just has too many holes in too many places for us to be talking about having only one loss.

We may have scored more points with Herbert.  Problem is, we'd probably also have done it quicker, putting our defense on the field sooner, and allowing them to negate whatever benefit we would gain by higher scoring.  In a lot of ways, our defense has overachieved by staying off the field. 

Granted, KC is an extreme, but we held the ball for 38 minutes yesterday, and they scored 33 points in what was left. 

All that presumes our OL would not have gotten Herbert killed by now.

Yeah in the draft thread I was calling for Herbert and we came so close to snapping him up. Now I'm hoping we lose the remainder of our games and draft as high as possible to secure our QB of the future. Teddy is doing a decent job, but I don't see the Panthers being a dominant SB winning team with Teddy at the helm.

Right now we are at 10th place in the draft. We have the following games remaining:

Bucs - L

Lions - ?

Vikings - ?

Broncos - ?

Packers - L

Football Players - ?

Saints - L

The question mark games will probably come down to the 4th quarter and could go either way. We need to lose those.

    • Bryce has been in the NFL 3 years and still looks like a very mediocre QB. Most games are nothing but mediocre plays with a highlight reel every now and then.  He is a very INCONSISTENT QB and it’s very fustrating. He does not deserve a 5th year option, even though the Panthers and all the dumb asses in the front office will give it to him.
    • I’ve rarely ever been more sure of anything than losing out — but how can anyone say with a straight face “Bryce hasn’t improved, but Canales has and he’s masks his flaws”. You have to be so out of touch with reality to put one way above the other when discussing those two. 
    • Last night was the classic example of a visiting team just holding on through the wave of emotion a home team has at the start of a big time game. Bama’s first two kickoff returns really set them back as far as playcalling and allowed OU to dictate field position. The emotion of the home crowd fed into what OU was doing at that point, and it felt like Bama would not be able to overcome that.     Once the kickoff returner was told to fair catch every kick, the game shifted, as Bama wasn’t starting each drive inside their own 15. It was then that Bama was able to make some plays, outscoring OU 34-7 the rest of the way.  I think the last 3/4 of the game proves Bama was the better team. OU was just able to ride the initial wave of emotion to a big lead, but Bama held on just enough.  However, had OU blocked the punt on Bama’s second drive and scored a TD (vice a FG on the ensuing drive), things likely would have been different.  Anyway, Roll Tide!
