It’s a pipe dream of getting Stafford or Watson , they don’t want to come to the panthers and I don’t blame them , they want big money and want to win they won’t find that here . 
 

we won’t be getting Lawrence , fields or Wilson which is a blessing in disguise because I don’t see any of them as great nfl players . That brings the question of tre lance ?!

tre lance will be good or really bad , screw that we can’t take a risk man , 

this brings us to Mac jones which we will be lucky if he’s still available when we pick because he will shoot up the boards after a solid senior bowl , he’s smart , he’s tall , accurate and has a good deep ball . Bro we need a pocket passer something better than jake , I’m sick of these short passers and mobile qbs they never win , the people that win are pocket passers and that’s Mac jones . 
 

tua went early because of his big games despite him having worse numbers than Mac jones and despite him being hurt , Mac bones is being underrated people why don’t you understand that ? 
 

oh but beer Mac jones has all the weapons? Yes he does but so did tua but was devonta smith the headman with that bummer tua no? Dude this guy is a good passer . 

It has already been reported that Watson would consider the Panthers, so...

I have a good feeling about Mac Jones. Not sure if I want to be the team that takes the risk, but I would definitely be kicking myself if he pans out.

Not going to say any names, but he reminds me of a poor mans version of a QB playing next Sunday.

I'm almost to the point where I don't trust many QBs from the typical college powerhouses. Obviously there's a few exceptions to the rule, but going from an elite OL, elite weapons who get 5+ yards of separation with regularity, elite running games, and elite defenses to a lack of essentially all of that creates one helluva learning curve.  Saw it with Tua this year, waiting on guys to get open instead of anticipating the throw. Some of the same with Jalen Hurts.  Their mobility helps...which Mac Jones has little to none of. 

I just don't see a single thing about Mac Jones that's elite.  His accuracy is his best quality, but even with that, he's been throwing to Devonta Smith with 10 yards of separation instead of throwing to a WR who's yet to make a cut.  Could be great, sure, but it would be about the most milquetoast pick imaginable even in the 2nd. 

Really gotta pay attention to the traits with the QBs coming from powerhouses. Lawrence has elite traits. He has a good arm, good mobility and athleticism, prototype size. It's obvious why he's an elite prospect. Fields has elite traits. He has the arm. He has the athleticism. He has good size. If he was more consistent he'd be locked in as the #2 QB. Jones just doesn't fit. He put up great stats. But when you single him out and specifically watch him instead if watching the game and the result, you're left pretty unimpressed. Pretty much everyone is in agreement that Trask isn't a very good NFL prospect but I'd bet money he would've out up very similar videogame stats.

He’s not athletic I get it neither is Brady , he is solid in the pocket and makes good decisions regardless how good his weapons on . He turned devonta smith from a first round pick to a heisman trophy winner . It’s not all devonta he throws receivers open and he is a pocket passer a true pocket passer .

I’m not trying to knock Mac Jones...honest question here...what traits/skills does he have that stand out from the pack? 

Intelligent guy. Makes good decisions! Good size, strong arm, accurate--seemingly the quintessential pocket passer. 

But, isn't nearly as mobile as today's younger franchise QBs. Questions about how he can handle defensive pressure because his pockets were pretty damned clean at Bama!

LOL!  Smith only came about 250 yards shy of Jones' passing totals in 2019 (1256 vs. 1503) and they both had 14 TDs. Smith was already putting up very good stats before Jones became the entrenched starter this year.

      It’s comes down to special teams.

      By KingKucci · Posted

      Rod has absolutely been my favorite coach of all time, but its not working in the playoffs.  Its just not.  Hindsight, we should have went with the goalie rotation we did the regular season.  It was working.  Freddie is coincidently getting worse in the playoffs.  You see the correlation there.    However, missing Pesce and Fast is not helping.  Benching Noesen in Ot last night when net from goals was working is mind numbing.  Rod needs to be held accountable.     We also need our shutdown line back.  I know fast is out but Staal Maartnook and "insert" need to play.  But like you said, nothing matters if your special teams are poo.  and boy are they poo.  7 power play goals allowed in 6 games is how bad the PK was to start the year.  Yall remeber how awful we were to start the year.  Power play is atroicus.  Its 0-11 is insane how bad that it is.  You cant and wont win against the presidents club winner playing like that.  Lastly, goalie play is average to bad.  You arent going to win allowing 8 goals in 2 games.  We need our goalies to make saves.   Discipline.  We don't have it.  We know the Rags are going to flop.  We know the refs are going to fug us.  Its what it is.  How do you fix it?  Mindful of your stick.  Forecheck...hit it and see it.  Dont give them the chance to flop or call penalties.     Rod needs to be held accountable.  Its not working.  Playoff Rod is playoff rod for a reason.  not because we made it up.     Lastly, no its not over.  These are correctable things.  We could easily win the next two at home and boom, GAME ON!  But for that to happen, Discipline, PK, PP, and goalie must be better. Its alot more than just winning 5v5.  They all tie together.  If I had to pick 1 to be good.  PK.  Stopping that like we did all year, would solve most problems.
