PFF Projections for Panthers QB and his Top Receivers

Teddy Bridgewater ranked 28th in deep ball accuracy from a clean pocket (39.39%) yet was top 8 in deep ball completion percentage (48.48%). How does that happen you ask? With playmakers like DJ and Robby, they make a QB look good. 

With CMC coming back and the offseason additions at WR and TE... I am eager to see what Sam will do.

Screw PFF, Sam has never thrown that many INTs in his career but now with better weapons and coaching he throws 18-19 ints? 

I don't think he's played a full season either. 

However I do agree that 19/19 seems a bit much.

If he plays a full season for us im still not expecting more than 15, but I am predicting 12.

2016 he threw 31 TDs, 9 INT, 2 rushing TDs and 3 tackles.  Want him to do this on the Panthers.  

Maybe minus the tackles part.  We need to keep our Carolina QBs as far away from making tackles as we possibly can.  Thats what ruined Cams career.

They have taken analytics to a stupid level.

 

 I heard Collingsworth himself say that sometimes the numbers don't always align with the stats, or the eye test. But, as a whole, for what they do. They fit a niche for football teams, and agents. 

 

He joked that nerds didn't play. Or something like that.

 

I think it was "Inside the NFL" on HBO.

Sam Darnold 

30+ TD's - We maybe got our franchise guy. Extension/new contract and high praise to Panthers FO

20+ TD's - Shows Progression, gets another year to progress maybe gets an extension 

19 TD's and under - If closer to 19 next year will be a prove it year for Darnold, if TD's are around teddy's 15 or lower we will draft a QB or one will land to us in a trade

 

What do you guys think about this? Any changes?

1. Keep

2. Dependent on how the season went and how he played.

3. Bye Sam.

Sam Darnold

2021 passing projections: 4,311.5 yards, 22.2 touchdowns. 18.8 interception

Give me 11 INTa instead and sign me up for those passing stats. That would be a playoff team.

    • I think at some point you top out what God gave you.  He can use leverage via his mechanics to maximize what he has and When he pays attention to it the throws are better.    IMO as a layman a lot of it is what kind of ‘headroom’ you have. The guys who are gifted don’t have to use maximum effort to get good results and stay within themselves but they have it in reserve. They can do an arm throw for substantial distance without max effort.    I think what we may be seeing with these ‘lasers’ is a throw that Bryce puts the max effort into and does his mechanics right and has his base right and it works together.    To get to the payoff here, I think his best velocity throws take dall that whereas  a naturally gifted guy doesn’t need to go full effort to get that same velocity. I have said this three or four times over the years and it never gets picked up on but the accuracy is more consistent with an easier motion and max effort can produce less predictable location. It is a baseball pitcher thing but it applies to throwing a pass too. It isn’t that you can’t make an accurate throw with full effort it is just not as reliably accurate to the same degree. Someone said something about his pro day and that is where I saw it too. He took a little extra step on the deep throws. Some call it a hitch but I don’t see it that way because I don’t see it on shorter throws. He does it trying to get distance. I saw that and just wanted no part of it at 1.1 . That is not tne characteristic of a 1.1 passer.  He should have been at best, late first  I had him second day. Of course I am no one and certainly not a pro evaluator, it is just that he WS so easy to suss out. They must have thought they could fix him. Changing a lifelong throwing motion with the footwork tied into it is not fuging easy. Anyone that had decent success with ‘their’ way and tried to change it to get more, can tell you that.     
    • Sounds like a tad bit of what Josh Allen had. He would make throws that made zero sense die to his desire to make a make. Bryce also turns the ball over believing their is an unlimited shot clock in those moments. Sometimes the best play is to reset for the next one. 
    • See, I think one of his biggest issues is he bails too early.  His instinct has been to bail as soon as defenders get behind him and the pocket starts to close in. Taller QBs hang in there for that extra second or two and throw over guys as the pocket collapses in the QBs lap.  BY runs as soon as this starts to happen, which means routes don’t have time to develop and the field gets cut in half as soon as he runs. This last game I saw some signs of him being willing to hang in the pocket when the defense gets behind him, but that has been rare.
