Panthers have an easy out with Teddy in 2022. He will only cost 5 million against the cap to release.

Is the plan to draft a QB and use Teddy's second year to let the rookie sit and learn? Teppers is a long term guy and that is definitely a long term plan. 

Would love that

I think the plan was always to use Teddy as a stopgap. That's why we were all over Herbert last draft. 

You don't pay that much for "just" a stopgap, somebody thought he at least had a chance to be more than just a stopgap.  They can justify it, in that its not a long term deal and the overall money isn't crippling, but somebody thought they could win with Teddy.

It was a $40m gamble, so far its looking like it was a mistake.

If we were on pace to be 9-7 and Teddy was playing a little better I'm not 100% sure we draft a QB this year, are you?

As long as its not Hurney.

 

He did draft Cam

With the #1 overall pick.

 

But outside that, he's drafted Grier, Pickles, Tony Pike etc

Teddy is a class guy with a lot to teach a young pro QB. Just because he doesn't have it doesn't mean he can't teach it. In fact, some of the best teachers are mediocre at what they teach. 

I don't get this line of thinking. 

Think about position groups during the weak.  DBs have a secondary coach.  RBs have a running back coach.  

QBs on the other hand, are probably getting input from the HC, the OC, and the QB coach.  Also the QB coach only has 2-3 player to teach.  Whereas most position coaches have more guys.

QBs are the most overcoached players on the field, not sure if you need to spend $40m to add a little bit more coaching.

$40m to spend on the O-line will help a rookie QB a lot more than anything Teddy will teach him.

Nobody spent $40m just for a coach. They knew he was a consummate pro...he does things the right way. They knew he was familiar with the offense. They thought he would make a good bridge to the next guy. In the meantime, ask any NFL player who they learned to be a pro football player from and it's almost never a coach, it's a fellow player, one that typically plays that same player's position. If it helps, substitute "mentor" for "coach." But it has as much to do with life and being a good teammate than x's and o's.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By Mr. Scot · Posted

      An odd little vibe I've noticed here of late: some folks are "all or nothing" to an absolutely extreme level when it comes to Bryce. Here's a bit of truth telling though: There are, in fact, things Bryce does well. Likewise, there are areas in which he's improved over his time here. He has, on several occasions now, legitimately helped us win games. On the flipside, there have been failures in other areas as well as coaching that we're not in any way his fault.  And finally , it is also genuinely possible that the team may see him as the future, even if we don't. The craziest part, though? It's actually possible that they're right and we're wrong. All of this is true, and more, yet if you accept any of these premises people go from zero to apesh-t in under three seconds 😳 Anything less than total disavowal of Bryce and / or agreement that he's the worst QB of all time and suddenly you're a "stan". Oy 🙄 The reality though?  Bryce is indeed an NFL quarterback. Not a great one, probably backup level good, and I've seen way worse. Now, if you run that statement through your personal Google translator and it comes back with some version of "I want to throw 50 million a year at Bryce for the next 10 years", that's not really my issue it's yours  I don't wanna make him the franchise quarterback, but it's not my call. Win or lose, the team is going to do what they think is best. And as always, if it disagrees with what I think we should do, I'm gonna hope I'm the one who's wrong. Internet clout means nothing. Watching my favorite team win at my favorite sport meas fun 😁
