Seriously, it's time to give Walker an honest look

Recommended Posts

In clutch situations Teddy has been terrible. Today he shirked all responsibility for a terrible miss in the end zone on what should've been a game winning TD but instead left our best WR injured. Plain and simple - Teddy isn't the answer.

Walker almost certainly isn't either, but he showed intriguing tools against the Lions. He's more talented than Teddy. Give the guy a chance to show what he can do when actually given the opportunity to prepare as the starter. Use that late game injury Teddy suffered as the excuse if you don't want to publicly bench him.

There's nothing to gain by continuing to trot Teddy out there. You've seen all you need to see. There's nothing to lose by giving Walker a real shot.

No, let's not. So let's give him an honest chance to prepare all week as the starter. The second one was a route miscommunication. That stuff happens a lot more with QBs and WRs who haven't had a chance to work together much. On the first one I think he just didn't see that defender.

Yeah but he also was dynamic....and our 20 million dollar bum threw a redzone int today as well.  At least we scored on offense and PJ can make throwns on the run that Teddy B never will and he probably hits that bomb at the end of the 2nd as well.  We would have scored more then 13 points with Walker today...it would have been a dub.

They gave him

63 million. 40 of which is guaranteed. We are screwed

Considering all the good he did as well let's at least give him more than one game to prove that take. Teddy's already done more than enough to prove that he is not an answer either.

Sunk cost. You have to view him as a $3M player next season. He has a $23M cap hit and $20M in dead money. I think there's a pretty decent chance he ends up playing wet nurse for most of next season anyway.

    • I didn't move the goal posts. But anyone who follows football who wants to engage in a rational discussion can't argue that 10 7th round picks are equal to 10 1st rounders in value. The argument has always been we haven't spent as much on defense has we have on offense. Draft picks have value just like salary. We have not spent the same amount of draft pick salary cap on defense that we have on offense since drafting Bryce. It's not even close. Just the 2 1sts we used on Bryce, 2 overall 1sts have a value of 6000. That doesn’t even factor in DJ Moore or the 2 2nds. Bryce cost more than everything we've spent on defense in 6 damn years. 
    • We need to hope this scenario plays our next week he fails with pressure…what that means with Evero, is beyond me
    • Woukd be a great addition You know the issues from my prespective, 2 things the Panthers must do 1. Edge or pass rushers or 2 oline or 3 oline or as Andy Reid says, when in doubt, draft a lineman it is time   That oline is troubling plus a small person at QB  they   1. Can do a lot better than mayes at center, 2. and lewis has had injuries all season. 3. Moton should not have  been resigned long term, 4. corbett is a shadow and will probably be released  5 and Christianson coming off Achilles   6 and the kicker, would be Ickey’s contract if they decide to keep him INMO rookie and contracts will be needed to offset all that
