Darnold the person--I really like the guy from what I can tell.  I think we will be pleased with him.  While everyone was bitching about the cost, it turned out to be a second rounder.  I think this will go down as a the best transaction is Panther history--better than Olsen, Stephen Davis, and ---- Jake Delhomme, if you factor in the risk/reward.

that wasn’t an endorsement for Darnold. It’s just a fact.
 

I wouldn’t have traded a 2nd rounder for a guy who threw 9 td passes last year. We got fleeced simply because  Darnold is top 5 qb level talent but plays like a bottom tier starting qb/backup. 
 

everyone from the Jets org and even the fanbase love Darnold as a person and wish him the best. But that doesn’t mean anything on the field. I’ll hope for the best and will admit that I’m getting excited about the possibility of him playing within this system but I’m really not about to make proclamations that this’ll be the best transaction in panthers history. That is very silly.

I also think it's pretty telling that none of the Panthers players publicly spoke out in support of Teddy.  If he was such a good leader, there certainly would have been more reports in the media.  I think everyone can see through the nice guy persona that he doesn't really accept accountability and just makes excuses as evident in this article

Brady was a member of the Saints staff.  You think he learned anything about running a pro offense and practice there?

probably.

But he was only an OC running a practice in college.  And Rhule has only run college teams.  Same for the DC.

and I don't think college teams put the same emphasis on things as the pros.  I mean, Rhule, Brady, etc are all going to have growing pains that apply to them.   I mean, that's normal.    I don't think we should be overly sensitive because Teddy might of pointed out a legit criticism as he tries to deflect from his failure here. 

Ron even commented it was a clear mistake not to have a prior HC on staff when he tried to get things rolling in the NFL.   I think it is a safe bet our green staff has learned they did some things wrong in year 1.   That should be expected.

I love how a few are taking this and attempting to use as evidence that supports their negative opinion on the coaching staff. 

 

Pretty easy to do so considering it is actual evidence that supports negative opinions of the staff.

I said it at the time of the signing. We just paid a bunch of money for no appreciable upgrade over Kyle Allen.

Despite his rather tasteful name, I'm not Teddy fan, but I don't see Kyle Allen staying healthy long enough to start 15 games. The guy seemed to get inured quite a bit.

New Broncos QB Teddy Bridgewater opens up on departure from Panthers: 'I'm motivated like never before'

Wait, him not recovering and playing after a potential career ending knee injury and never really being a starter wasn’t motivation enough? GTFO

    • We keep referring to it as Over drafting him like he was really a first round draft pick. We traded up at the end of the first to get him in a deal with Buffalo so that we could grab him and get an extra year on his contract if needed. At the time that sounded like "If he really soars, we can get that fifth year extension automatically". It really probably meant, "We might need five years to really get him up to starting WR speed."  He was basically a second rounder with a potentially meaningless pick as well to pay for those rights. Still, I think that with him we are on the Kelvin Benjamin bubble right now... will he ever be more than just an athlete? Can he really learn to fight and compete for that ball? Can he learn professional routes? Can he handle the fame and more money than he's ever seen in his life? Can he handle all of the pressure a fanbase puts on him? Tough shoes to fill. Not sure I'd want to be in them. I hope he gets it all together soon. A lot, most draftees, can't. Good luck and God bless to the young man. He's got a lot of work to do in a very unforgiving workplace.
    • This is the #1 reason I defend Bryce. Everyone around him is learning on the job, including him. But hey in 3 years we could have a talented offense that grew up together. 
    • Nope. No balling out but he could latch on as a backup elsewhere. I still think he would be the weak link on a ridiculously loaded team that would create problems in the Playoff and while facing other really good teams. His limitations are just to much at this level. I have zero fear of playing him in the future. It's a litmus test for the D, granted the D is pretty awful currently so none needed.
