Coaches spent all week talking about how good Jones and the other QBs were, then after the game they're like... nah, we're not hot on any of them being first rounders.

We'll have Jones in the first or the second.

"Now Mac, that ankle looks pretty bad to me. Maybe you'd better sit this thing out."

"Nah, Coach Rhule, I'm fine. Look I can run, I can pivot, I can push off and I can plant, no problem."

"Mac, just sit there, look disappointed and try to look like an optimistic bust every time the camera pans to you."

"And with the eighth pick of the 2021 NFL draft, the Panthers pick Mac Jones, QB, Alabama."

"Told ya kid, we'd take care of you."

I suppose Fitterer and Rhule don't believe any of these QB's are an improvement over Teddy Bridgewater.

Just like at any other level of football, you do what it takes to win, and running down someone's throat is preferable every single time!

Stop with the bullshit narrative about people getting defensive. It's not true. Lance is just a prospect like all the other ones. He will get his knocks just like everyone else not named Trevor. Analysis and criticism are all a part of the process, but you seem to take offense every time someone points out counterarguments to prospects that you don't want. Your go-to argument is that some message boarders are being "defensive", but you're the one who is low-key getting the attitude. I'll say what I said the last time you accused me of being defensive: Some of you are going to rue the day that you talked poo about Trey Lance. And, I stand behind what I said. If he busts, I'll be the first to admit it. But, when he turns out to be special, I won't even have to say "I told you so", because you'll know.

For the record, I'll be content to get a potential starter. Sure, I think Lance has the highest upside, and I doubt that he's going to bust, but if we pick Wilson, Fields, or even Jones, I will trust that Rhule and company know what they're looking for and be hopeful that it all works out. Even if we don't pick a QB, I know that we will acquire one relatively soon (before Teddy's contract is up). 

You are being ultra sensitive today. You literally made up a fake argument where I said Trey Lance can’t throw. Going to rue the day we critiqued Trey Lance? What kind of idiocy is that? Is he going to hurt me or my family? Are you? What a joke lol

I hope Joe is right here, Rhule is a lair and this could be one of his lies.

 

@Varking how DARE you say the lord and savior Trey"18 times superbowl MVP" lance can't throw, shame on YOUU!!1!1!!!

Your modus operandi is tiresome and tired! You have already said that you didn't want Lance. Yes, you have! You've also said that his coaches "limited" his throws and "avoided" throwing the ball, intimating that Lance was the issue! You've made a dishonest and/or disingenuous leap based solely upon Lance's lack of throws (as you see it)! Every time I counter your bullshit, you accused me of being sensitive or defensive (which is ludicrous, I might add) when it's you who are the one being sensitive. Chill out a little bit! Don't be so sensitive when someone counters your argument!

And that is what the great Ron Rivera does for a home game that would wrap up the playoffs--he craps his pants.

We’ve had a front row seat to the same movie.

i’m relieved tbh

the worst thing that could happen is a coach falls in love with one of these QB prospects and thinks they can develop them into the next drew brees and at a bargain

You haven’t countered anything I’ve written. Something is going on with you today. I have said I didn’t want Lance. That’s correct. I’ve never claimed I didn’t say that. This is the case of you making up arguments I’m not making. He’s not my first choice. I’ve also said I completely understand why the Panthers would take him. YES I HAVE!! I’ve also said I’d support him if he was the pick. YES I HAVE!!

 

I hope your day gets better.

He came out of the woodworks with tears already in his eyes and has gotten super offended over my opinion. I didn’t even say he couldn’t throw. I pointed out he is thousands of reps and reads behind these other guys and it’s going to take him time to get it. This triggered something deep in his soul.

Like I said: I reject your boom-or-bust narrative in regards to Lance! I reject your intimations that coaches purposefully limited his throws! Moreover, if you "don't want Lance", he's obviously not your first choice or any choice, do don't try and hedge now.  Live by what you said!

Your deflection is ludicrous! You're a pretty bad comic or just delusional if you actually believe that I am offended by a disagreement of opinion about a football player or football team. I reject your boom-or-bust narrative in reference to Lance, period! Sorry (not sorry) you don't like that! 

I hope your night gets better.

I’ve literally told you what I’ve said. And I stand by it. I don’t want him. That doesn’t mean I can’t see why he’s coveted. It doesn’t mean I wouldn’t cheer for him. You’re the one dramatizing this whole thing. “YE SHALL RUE THE DAY!!!”
