Yeah, they know this. I personally thought they’ve made their intentions quite clear so far this offseason.

Again, it’s February 18th... of course as of today Teddy is our QB. Can things change? Of course.

Options are limited though. Lawrence and Wilson are going 1-2 to the Jags and Jets and that isn’t changing. They made a real run at Stafford, offering their 1st rounder... so they’re trying 

I don't think the Wilson at #2 is a lock.

I feel for everyone who wants a different qb.

I completely agree on that point.

However there's nothing wrong with trying to stand pat and use the next two years to build up our depth at any number of positions, including qb, and letting the draft come to us.

Remember, everyone: Rhule notoriously favors a slow build approach where it takes years to rebuild a program.

I'm an old man. I'd definitely love to see a good Panthers team sooner rather than later 😆

A month ago, the idea of standing pat with Bridgewater for another year would have sounded incomprehensible to me. Even today, the thought makes me cringe.

But with all that said, it might just happen.

Hope not, but who knows?

After how he looked against the Saints?

He looked awful, Im FIRMLY in "Panthers got faaaar too many holes/dont overpay for Watson/early first group". FIRM!

No one of the trade everything for Watson crew has answer my question about the OL or how they feel about putting him behind it. NOT ONE. They must feel watson can block the whole DL, be the starting TE, and not get injuried during this. Walker isnt Teddy, since many have a hate boner for Teddy.

I feel this is a very on paper type sentiment. By the time the QB we draft in 2023 is ready to get us a SB, we will have to pay Burns, Chinn, Moore, Brown, etc. And that is assuming the rookie QB even works out. It's cyclical, there's always going to be people you have to pay (IF you draft well). Getting a QB is paramount. It is a QB league. Chiefs, Packers roster is slightly above average outside QB and they win 12+ a year. 

This is why so many people are excited about the thought of getting a 25 year old Watson, even if the price is steep. It is worth it.

Exactly.  The oline and secondary alone make me seriously ponder the idea of trading back this year to try to fix as much as we can.

I understand the desire.

Do you trust the offensive line as it is now to be better than the Texans', better than last year, or protect Watson?

      Carolina Still Not Respected

      By Navy_football · Posted

      I guess so. Don't think I was involved with previous discussions.  Tepper is one of the newest owners in the NFL. Dan is going into his 3rd season as a GM - ever. Dave is going into his 3rd season as a HC - ever. Before becoming a HC, he was an OC/playcaller for one season total. Idzik is about to go into his 1st year as a play caller - ever. WRs are rookies, sophomores and 3rd year guys - though the experienced 3rd year guys are XL and Coker (who has missed a ton of games). TEs are guys going into their 2nd and 3rd seasons, and Tommy Tremble - though Sanders has missed a ton of games. QB has played 3 years. Chuba is an experienced RB, but Brooks and Etienne have taken very little snaps at the position. O-line is more experienced vets with some talent - which is HUGE. Need them to stay healthy. I mean the offense is very young in every aspect except O-line. You see it differently?

      I said this ALL last season and will say it again this year. Our record means diddly squat this year, I don't care if we have 0 wins or 17 wins, I only care about one thing and one thing only. Bryce proves without a shadow of a doubt that he IS or ISN'T our long term solution at QB. It's the only thing that matters for the same reason it sucks that this is the same thing as last year.  This needs to be determined, and if they can't determine it, then it's still telling the team the answer, just not the one they want to hear. As right now we're in the ultimate QB purgatory, a position that dooms franchises for years.  Just look at a team like the Cardinals, who extended a better QB and it still screwed them over and haven't had a contending team in a long time. People get too caught up on wins and losses when evaluating players, particularly QBs.  When people look at the final record and use that as a reason to want to extend a QB or not is just a fools errand.  If we had lost 2-3 more games last year because we didn't make a last second FG, I genuinely wonder if we would have just moved on from Bryce this offseason (like we should have been doing anyways IMHO).
