They talk a lot of crap against Panthers in general. I think they’re really hoping Darnold doesn’t turn it around with the Panthers so they can feel less miserable as a fanbase.

I didn't mind the signing but I thought we way overpaid.  I'm not sure what the Bills gave for Trubisky but we should of gave less because he is considerably better than Darnold. Hoping for the best.

It probably came down to opportunity.  I'm sure they turned over every stone looking who was realistically available that fit whatever Brady has concocted for this offense.  Honestly either option is a crap shoot as a place holder, which I think is the leash they have Darnold on. 

From what they are publicly saying about what Darnold cost them its been recouped.  Even if you don't buy that and hold it cost a second it's no different  than all the second round picks blown in the past.  It was always going to cost a season to find out so either way its not a franchise breaker despite what the Fields worshipers will tell you.

If he can just be better than Teddy he may get another year to audition for another contract.  Otherwise he will follow Teddy out the door.   Only we will be more battle tested when the draft rolls around. Which I can't wait for now since you know who that won't be named is exercised from the building. 

Dare I say that I feel better about the future of this team? Regardless of whether Darnold succeeds or flops the team as a whole is getting better.  That in itself gives me hope.

He listens to the coaches, which is the main thing.

He can be trained to hit those underneath passes Bridgewater was fond off. The make or break part of his career in Carolina is whether he hits those shot plays they call.

He was a free agent, they gave up nothing.  Bills did a 1 year deal for 2M.

    • Kon is a damn stud but it’s not any individual player’s team. All of the “big 3” are incredibly and equally important IMO. And LaMelo makes Kon way better (look at his shooting splits with LaMelo on the floor vs without. Also Moose and even Miles are important cogs. Honestly think we’re 1 piece away from being legit top contenders if the young guys continue to develop the next year or two. I trust this FO to be patient to find that piece within the next 2-3 years and not force anything. Plenty of time and even without adding anyone we have the pieces in place overall already to compete with any team. 
    • We lost 2 very close and winnable games against top teams in the league while missing 3 critical players despite 2 of our top 3 players shooting unusually terribly. Still split the 4 games that Moose and Miles were suspended, winning the most important one vs the Hawks. This ain’t yo mama’s Hornets man. Hopefully Coby can go soon but even if not Moose and Miles are huge additions for our starting lineup and bench rotations. Schedule is pretty tough after these next 4 but I think we’ll take care of business the next 4 to get to .500 then finish slightly above .500 after that to get a 7 or 8 seed. Keep it rolling boys. Also Kon is having an insanely historic rookie season as a shooter. Like truly can’t believe my eyes watching this kid level of historic. Man what a fuging home run of a draft pick and exactly what this team needed to take that next step forward. He’s gonna shatter the rookie 3 point and franchise 3 point records. Has a real chance to be the 2nd best 3 point shooter ever or dare I say even get to Curry’s level (as a pure shooter, Curry obviously has way more to his game that has made him a GOAT).
    • I hear you but yeah like you say, above average. His numbers were good. You’d think it would be a no brainer. Anyhow… I guess the new staff is also fine with him walking?    I hope if we sign him there isn’t some secret issue of his that led to him not being valued.
