That's too bad about Fields. Most of this board are hoping he can prove Rhule, and Fitz wrong. I'm sure he will get better? Right?

I heard Rapport on FS1 this morning. Fields is doing well just to get the play calls out. Dalton gets them out and then tells everyone in the huddle what there job is. It took Mahomes almost a full season behind Alex Smith to get acclimated to that offense. I wouldn't draw any huge conclusions on Fields, Jones, Lawrence, Lance, or Wilson based upon this season, let alone before they even take their first preseason snap (though Jones has taken snaps now). Even a seemingly successful rookie campaign would need to be backed up by an equally strong sophomore year.

When it comes to evaluations, you're gonna get some right, and get some wrong. Past performance is no guarantee of future results.

Excuses for Fields. Wow, who'd a thunk it. Folks will give Fieldsv a pass, but rip into Sam? What is wrong with this picture?

Fields isn't a fourth year pro. As of now most are less concerned about Sam and more about the line in front of him.

Yup, if you can play, you can play.

 

However, that does not explain how, after the meltdown on here over one bad PRACTICE. We get one tweet about Fieldsy, and he gets excuses?

 

 

It just feels...off.

To be fair to them, Sam is going into his 4th season, Fields is just a rookie.

Plus, the QB position will always have it’s fanboys.  In that, guys are kinda like pubescent girls.

*This forum is impressive that it has few fans I describe above, just directed at the weirdos that feel compelled to go to another team site, Twitter or Facebook to offer stupid takes on QBs on other teams….normally mental giants with the profound “he sucks”, or commenting on the looks of opposing QB.  Sh*t like that.

If he’s not you QB, why do you care?

I do have to wonder how many Huddlerz will be bringing up stuff about Fields? And for how long?

 

I get it. We passed on Fields, and those that wanted him were upset. But it's Pre Season now. Let's move on to our own team.

Yeah, I'm not doing this. I'm not going to get into some lame discussion about a QB who is not even on my team. Sorry.

You are being snippy about it but nobody forced you into this thread you quoted someone about Fields and initiated an interaction. Fans of different football teams discuss other players their team passed over in the draft all the time Panthers fans included this isn't some new phenomenon. You are going to have to put your big boy pants on and accept not everyone here is going to be a drone and repeating the same take.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By Tepper's Chest Hair · Posted

      Sometimes its fun to read the threads/posts.  The panthers could literally hire a groundskeeper and we'd have a thread "improving the field for no other reason to prop up Bryce Young".  Apparently no move is ever done to actually make the team better.  All a conspiracy to just focus on Bryce Young. Or suddenly daydreaming and reminiscing about Sam Darnold when he was hated more than Bryce Young.  Its really fun to do a message board search about Darnold during that time period.   Or thinking there is just a tree that grows QB, and you can just easily go up and pluck one.

      Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying.

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
