So you don't like them because they didn't like BC?

Oh I like them, if anything its the opposite.   I liked them MORE after they came out against BC.  Before I would listen to them from time to time, now I'm subscribed.  Its hard to find good in depth reviews on BC.  After the draft review on CP3 when they railed on the Brady pick, I wanted to understand why.   They essentially dedicated a whole show to him.  So I took their advice and watched the film they said to watch and what to look for.     Its a great podcast. 

They just do NOT like BC.  Part of it is legitimate, part of it was just because he wasn't on their board.  They admit they didn't watch much tape on him until after the draft.

I just enjoy watching PNP Rashad and Dave more.

Mind you, I do believe Walker will have a chance to be a starter again around 2023.

 

 

That's when the XFL is scheduled to start back up.

I just find it odd how people selectively fixate on shitting on PJ Walker......given what the rest of the QB roster looks like.  Like....why?

he is a backup QB....who came in and did his job the one time he was asked to start.   

if you are talking about PJ Walker.....it's a sign there are much bigger issues IMO.   Which we saw last year.   The bigger issue was we brought in someone to start that wasn't a NFL starter.

It has a lot to do with the fact that he's not good, honestly probably not even "backup good".

He's not an NFL quarterback. I'd be way more comfortable with a better backup, but I don't know if we're gonna get one.

Okay....but the reason people are talking about PJ Walker is because there are bigger and more important problems.  So.....why not just fixate on that.  The problem.   It's what I wanted to do in the draft.   Add starting QB talent/potential. 

and the NFL is full of guys that aren't good enough to start.  Basically every team has PJ Walkers.  That's why they are called backups.   Which is what PJ is. 

The problem isn't PJ Walker.  The problem is who Matt Rhule keeps designating as his starting QB.   PJ is getting heat from those that want to deflect from the real issue IMO.

The most accurate representation of our backup QB situation I've seen is someone saying we have two third stringers fighting for a second string spot.

I'd prefer one solid second stringer over both of them.

well, realistically, the only reason people really talk about backup QBs .....is because of the problem that exists at the starting spot. 

yeah, you talk about it if your QB gets hurt.  That's gonna happen.

But if you are freaking out about PJ Walker in July?  Well.....it's really a Sam Darnold conversation.   I'd prefer we just focus on fixing the starting QB spot instead of debating how good you think a 2nd or 3rd string QB is.

      Round 7: The Carolina Panthers select LB Jackson Kuwatch (Miami of Ohio)

      By bigginpc · Posted

      He does have speed. 21+ top end speed is very fast for a linebacker and his 3 cone drill time is considered excellent, close to elite.

      This is awesome because you get to see the perspectives of the scouts--get a glimpse behind the curtain. I wonder whose doing this was; I am curious as to why David Tepper allowed it. Maybe it was his wife. Maybe Dan.  At least from my perspective--and probably one shared by other fans--when David Tepper bought the team, he closed everything off too much to the fans, and really didn't give an explanation. Things were obviously done because he (and/or some others wanted to do it). Remember when they used the guise of construction and all that to keep fans from seeing the team during practice? I know there are laws and safety and all that, but Tepper could've made it happen. And, of course, we all know that they essentially fired Jeremy from his independent contractor gig as a photojournalist. I never understood why they'd do that (and the negative reverberations obviously affected Jeremy and ultimately this place--i.e, us fans). The pie was (and is) certainly big enough to throw some scraps to the independents. I realize that you can't necessarily open the floodgates, but a few different perspectives from indy journalists whether in word or photos is a good thing in my mind.  So, it's great to see different perspectives. I will say this however: it is not without risk, as you know there will be some buster who will be calling the scouts out if the players flop. I think we should all keep in mind that the buck stops with the GM. It's nice to have one, however, that is so convicted in his people and process--and ultimately success, that he's willing to give fans access to this type of information. Pass this on to Tepper.

      Round 5: The Carolina Panthers select C Sam Hecht (Kansas State)

      I hope he ends up being our best ever at the position. Ryan Kalil left big shoes behind that we haven't quite been able to fill since.
