If he wants to endear himself to the fan base, all he has to do is go out there and perform well.

That’s obvious.

Performance being equal Id prefer a QB who has a personality. Seeing Tom Brady talking sh!t on twitter making memes about Aaron Rodgers and Bryson Dechambeau is entertaining. The NFL is in the business of entertainment.

This is what Panthers QB Sam Darnold said > "To go from being wanted to being unwanted is huge".  "Getting that news that you're going to be traded, of a team saying, 'Hey, we didn't want you,' for whatever reason, is hard".

Well I like my QB to be in the business of winning Football Games instead of being a standup comedian or something.

Sam seems to be more of a "I live, eat, drink, sleep, and breathe Football" type of player.

Yeah I’m not worried about the personality at all. Burrow, Brees, Murray, and Luck (when he played) all had that laid back easy going OFF the field personality and made it work. As long as his foot is on the gas competing during practice and the games I’m not worried about him being entertaining....  People wanted Fields and he has that same demeanor. It’s all about winning games for the fans.

We went 15-1 with a goofballs like Cam and Greg you don't have to be boring and stoic to win games

Right.  you don't HAVE TO  BE.

But my point is that it's not a prerequisite either.

Help the team win games.

That's all that matters to me.

No body cares about TMZ drama bullshit. Rodgers, Brady, both Mannings, Brees, Jackson, Allen, Herbert, Mahomes are all pretty damn boring. Some of you might be too young to know, but ALL of the older ones were vanilla too at age 23. No reason to be talking poo if you haven’t done poo or ever really. Cam was boring as hell aside from his dumbass remarks and goofy, attention hoarding clothing.

No one cares the GOAT talks more poo than a dude who just grew hair on his nuts.

He’s never going to say ridiculous things, pout like a baby during press conferences, dress like a pimp, or insult a press member due to her gender.  
 

You had that already, right?  He’s a team player, it will never be just about him or petty vengeance.  Publicly. 😏

In fairness, he will likely never be as good as Cam either. It's was easy to forgive all Cam's "eccentricities" when he was one of the best offensive weapons in the NFL.

I like this guy.  Really pulling for him..1st of course because he is a Panther but also he seems like a decent person.  He went through a bad experience an no-one can get him to say anything negative. That is unique.

This.

From the looks of it, he's had 3 years of experience scrambling....he should be the best scrambler in the league by now.

Exactly! I feel sure there would be tons of negative things Sam Darnold could have said about his bad experiences with the inept Jets management and sorry coaches but to his credit he sucked it up and threw no one under the bus.

Right, but they're not being asked to be the CEO of a Fortune 500 company.

    • I must apologize, my sarcasm at times doesnt translate well in text form lol. At this point I would welcome us signing him, Trey Lance, trading for Jameis Winston, asking about Deshaun Watson and playing phone tag with Tom Brady before I ever fully entertain a season of Bryce Young being the defacto Starting Quarterback of the Panthers.

    • We had a QB who could do that and its the last time we went to the Super Bowl and the only time we had an MVP. Once he lost his ability to do that he was out of the league. To filter out insignificant stats I will only look at QBs who have played in 10 or more games this year. There are 28 qualifying QBs. Bryce is 25th in Air Yards per Attempt at 6.4. Only Joe Flacco, Cam Ward, and Dillon Gabriel are worse (6.0, 5.8, 5.1). Trevor Lawrence, Patrick Mahomes, and CJ Stroud are the median QBs at 7.1. Drake Maye and Sam Darnold lead the league at 8.7. Bryce is 18th in the league for passes that travel 30+ yards at 12. The median is Caleb Williams at 15. The league leader is Matthew Stafford with 26. With passes that travel 40+ yards, Bryce is tied with three others at 21st in the league with 3. Only Jacoby Brissett, Cam Ward, Joe Flacco, and Dillon Gabriel are worse. The median is a three-way tie with Drake Maye, Trevor Lawrence, and Baker Mayfield with 6. The league leader is Sam Darnold with 12. Having the ability to complete passes down the field (not YAC) stretches the defense and makes them account for more ground. It keeps players out of the box and keeps formations in nickel or dime, less line backers for your RBs to worry about. Bryce is why we have 2 losses against the Saints. If he had the outright ability to sling the football down field we beat the easily, but he doesn't. So they crowded the box and our 2 starting caliber RBs with our top ~10 Oline couldn't carry the offense to a win on their own. The limitations of the offense fall squarely on Bryce.
