After this win and losing out on a top 3 draft pick, it looks like Teddy Bridgewater will be the starter next year

Whoopee! The Panthers have won yet another meaningless late season game! This amazing win has killed what would have been a top 3 draft pick and the chance to draft a top QB prospect. 

Now the Panthers will draft at the back end of the top 10, maybe out of the top 10 all together. Seems unlikely the team will draft a QB at that spot and the Panthers will have another season with Teddy Bridgewater at QB.

How does everyone feel about another season of Teddy Throwsavelt and his magic gloves? I’m so excited I might vomit!! Seriously, I want to blow my freaking chunks all over the TV screen right now! Can’t wait to watch Bridgewater next season!!!

If you look at the other post about where we draft if we win.... the way today's games ended.... i believe we will be in the 5 -7 pick. Still primed for a QB.

It's a pretty deep QB class and not a draft with a lot of high end talent, it's still pretty likely we come away with a QB

 

just about the general selection of them

At least a lot of teams ahead of us dont need a QB, potential trade partners

As much as it sucks to lose out on a high draft pick, I also don't think it is THAT bad if Teddy starts next year

Does he suck?  Yes.  But the fact is that anyone who thinks this was going to be a quick turnaround is fooling themselves.

This coaching staff is legit.  If we don't take a QB in 2021, we still easily could in 2022.  

I know everyone is disappointed.  I am too.  But it ain't the end of the world.  A team with good coaches will always find a way.  And if we make the right choice at GM?  Sheesh... this team is gonna be built for the long-term.

      2026 World Cup Thread

      By Joe Bear · Posted

      Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.

      Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly.

      Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
