PJ for Pres!

I've seen every Panther game. Love this guy! Reminded me of Jake! You're like what? How did you make that throw? 2 minutes later you're like why did you make that throw? This man just got his first start! He looked way better than Teddy 2 yards to me. Minus the crazy picks, we could have won by 40. Told my grown son on that Moore pass, damn we haven't seen a pass like that since '15. That was exciting football. Told my boy at half, he's still a bit skittish, let's see how he starts the second half. He started 10-10. Homer or not, that was fantastic to watch. PJ can chunk it. Kept the D real. I for one would love to see him start the rest of the season if nothing more than to see his potential. Loved his play. It was exciting.

Those “crazy picks,” were horrible decisions in the most important part of the field. Slow your horses. PJ played good today, but not what you are suggesting...

First one yea, second seemed like complete lack of communication.  Reciever went over middle, he thought he was goin for the corner of the endzone.  This is something that comes with reps and familiarity with recievers.  Not even really agreeing with OP, pickles would have won today with how our defense played, but I am willing to see if he grows and shows more over the next few weeks

Unpopular opinion. Teddy is the better QB but I love how PJ plays the game. Way more exciting. 

Teddy's more consistent and predictable (for better or worse) for sure but yeah, agreed that a more dynamic QB is more entertaining on top of any on-the-field benefits.

I actually think this is a popular opinion. Most recognize Teddy is the best QB on the roster. But the one thing he does is get predictable with the lack of deep throws. When he is aligning it deep we look hard to defend. Then for some reason we go to 1-5 yard check down city happening after that and the other team knows they can focus on short routes. 
The best situation from this is Teddy sees what people enjoyed today about PJ and incorporates more of that going forward.

    • Every team does it's homework. More so than any fan.  Brooks, had he not been injured, would have been a first round talent.  I have zero problems with the team (Dan Morgan and company) drafting Brooks in the 2nd.  He is a fantastic talent.  As far as risk, this is the NFL.  Any and every player is exposed to the same brutality that the NFL is.  Despite Brooks latest setback, it doesn't cost the team much.  Our running back room is stacked.  Could they have drafted someone else? Sure. No promise that someone else would have made an impact last year.  Or this year.   When it's your job to do what Dan does, I pray you get it all right. Lord knows that there isn't a single GM that gets it all right.   
    • Dang, we might not be able to create the same magic from last year!
    • If we were a solid winning organization most of us would have no problems with this selection. We would have had a capable starter in place to allow him to be eased into the rotation. If were told prior to the draft that he had been completely cleared health wise, we "probably" wouldn't have a ton of reservations about this selection. If we had picked this young man on Day 3 of the draft most of us would have no problems with this selection because we wouldn't have had to use draft capital to move up and get him. Unfortunately, none of the above were true 1)  We were a terrible team in 2023 and needed an immediate impact player. 2)  He was hurt near the the end of the 2023 NCAA season. We traded up to get him even though we knew he wasn't medically cleared to play in 2024. 3) When training camp started we were hearing stories that the knee wasn't ready. That alone should have raised some red flags. I personally would have red-shirted him in 2024 in order to have him ready for 2025. We had Chubba as our lead back and other guys to fill the #2 and #3 spots on the depth chart. There was no need to rush Brooks unto the field in 2024. Here's our draft history in the 2nd round between 2021 and 2024 2021 TMJ 2022 No draft choice. We picked Matt Corall in round 3 (#94) as our only Day 2 pick. 2023 Jonathan Mingo 2024 Jonathon Brooks. We have taken 4 skill players on Day 2 of the draft for the past 4 years who have contributed absolutely nothing to the offensive side of the football. 3 are no longer on the team. Two of them are no longer in the NFL. One  could possibly never start a game due to a knee injury. This type of poor drafting is why this team has been so bad for the entire decade.
