How much preseason time should Darnold play?

Gawd help us if  Grier is our number 2 ..   ( or Walker ) .   We have no number 2. 

I wish we had a washed up, aged , former starter,  like Derek Anderson was to Cam.  

 

Biggest problem I have with the Panthers offseason was not bringing in a second potential starting option. Whether it was drafting Fields or signing someone like Dalton, keeping Bridgewater or whoever. They needed another option.

The coaching staff and management believes they're good enough.

CmC said we have a complete offense. 

Seems fans want it both ways. 

I mean, those guys can't come out and say poo like, "Well, we've really miscalculated and we probably should have done more in the offseason" or "Yeah, I just don't trust these guys to block for me but I'm mostly used to that in my NFL career."

The correct answer is as long as possible.

You're not evaluating Grier and Walker - you know exactly what they bring to the table.

Darnold and the #1s should be in as long as possible - that Oline needs extended snaps to gel.

 

Sam darnold is not some rookie. You know what you're getting with him as well. Not with grier or with walker, let the backups play.

    • I don't believe it's as easy as saying that anyone believes that Rico had the 10th best day on offense. Grades are done in a vacuum inasmuch as they can be. By their very nature, skill positions are always going to account for more "production" in reference to stats, and RBs perhaps even more than WRs because they touch the ball more. You can't look at PFF's grading system, or any football grading/grading system (like perhaps Football Outsiders or Next Gen Stats), so simplistically. If a player has an excellent day, relative to his position, relative to his assignments, and relative to his number of snaps, then he should be graded highly. It's up to the reader (or the analyst, if you will) to put what you're seeing into context, and that's not only in relation to the grades, but the general situation (like whether a player is playing injured, who they're playing with or against---the general situation). Even the fact that (presumably) PFF or news outlets put out a list of the highest and lowest grades, that doesn't mean that said players were the most impactful of the day, it just means that they did or didn't do their job the best, based upon a certain set of parameters. PFF is a part of life for football analysts, talking heads, execs, coaches, players, and even fans (even if indirectly), all to varying degrees. It is a tool that is used by all 32 teams. Obviously it's not viewed so dismissively by franchises as a whole. Execs obviously don't look at it as a bunch of bozos making sh¡t up on the fly. Fans can berate it or swear by it, but it isn't going anywhere.  The only thing that I can tell you is that perspective and context matters.
    • Im not big in to PFF but their guys were raving about his blocking along with our other skill players in the run game. https://youtu.be/D4kL_N97cFQ?si=sJWSZCUA1bj5otyx
