I don't think he's playing bad, he's just not playing great. I don't think he's hurt himself tonight, I'll just put it that way.  

Having to be the leading rusher on top of passing hasn’t helped while he’s banged up either. Plus they can’t block anyone up the middle tonight.

Not a lot, but he definitely had some. I mean, he had 17 INTs his final season.  

Also had 50 total TDs and Championship to go along with those INTs....and was the best player in the country (Heisman or not). 

he wasn’t as polished as Lawrence.  Still think he was better though.  

But more on topic, I wouldn’t compare Fields to him.    I don’t think they see the field the same and play alike.

I wanted to watch Fields in this game after he had a great game against Clemson....probably the best of his college career.  I knew Alabama and Saban would draw up the best game plan to give him the biggest challenge he probably has faced and they did.

Fields look OK - made some really good throws, made some poor throws.  I am still not sold on him really understanding what defenses are doing, what they are giving to you and what they are definitely trying to take away.  The loss of Sermon didn't help evaluate him fully. 

He's still one of the top 3-4 QBs I, but I think it is going to come down to the preferences and beliefs of the NFL team that take him in the draft.  There's no way he goes above Lawrence and it's, IMO, a toss up between him and Wilson.

Somebody explain me this: What is the deal with teams like Alabama, Clemson and Ohio State? Do they just get all the 5 star recruits at every single position and back ups made up of 5 star recruits as well? Is that why the dominate year after year after year? I'm guessing that is all it is but just curious. I'm sure they have 5 star recruits that turn out to be busts as well but do they just not care and replace them with another 5 star recruit?

Yes and $

    • Trust me, the ticket investment in the Canes has already paid for itself with the amount of fun we have and the experiences we've enjoyed with the organization. From my recognition as a BCBS Hero of the Game during the 2019 playoffs, riding the zambonis, taking our dogs on the ice during the Christmas holiday photo op in 2022, and the fact the team wins. Compare that to having Panther PSLs for 17 years, which cost a helluva lot more than Canes tickets and there's little doubt as to which is the better bang for your buck.
    • Looking back Matt Moore and Kyle Allen are 2 QBS that showed way more than B Young I still believe given the right opportunity both of them could have been middle of the pack or above average nfl starting qbs. The matt moore vs brett favre game still a great memory. 
    • I can accept ticket price increases when that money is being spent to make the team and facilities better, unlike what Tepper has done in Charlotte.  Dundon has a ton of respect from me. Also, you said a mouthful with that last sentence....Donny and the Committee have a lot of work to do.  Priorities IMHO is getting Guentzel and Skjei re-signed.  I love Pesce, but Skjei doesn't get hurt as much and Pesce doesn't have the offensive upside.  Guentzel is a no brainer.  I also strongly believe we should keep Necas, he is too fast, skilled, and dangerous to just let go.  He has had some "WTF" moments but he is relatively still young.  One other hail mary I'd like to throw out there is getting KK off the books for something of some value, but it's most likely a pipe dream.
