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.

Imagine if they had traded for Pickles...n a 3th round would've been pushing it to it's limit 🤔

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.

    • If there's a pattern I'm definitely picking up from Dan and company is a philosophy of making trades where we try not to sacrifice the number of draft picks we have by day's end. In other words, we're not giving up three picks for one, or giving up a future pick to make a pick today. And even if we give up something at the start, we make trades later to make up for that initial loss. Here's how it stacked up for 2026: How we started: 19, 51, 83, 119, 158, 159, 200 How we ended: 19, 49, 83, 129, 144, 151, 227 (no future picks sacrificed) Ultimately, we moved up two spots in the second to ensure we got someone we coveted, gave up a few spots for our fourth round pick, but then had better picks in the 5th (and got really good value out of them), and had a worse 7th rounder which isn't that big of a loss anyways.  At this point, we can question who they draft, but they're pretty good maneuvering across the draft board.
    • I just saw the funniest thing...or very disappointing, depending how you handle misery. A guy on YouTube did a 2027 'way too early' mock draft.  If I told you the simulator has the Panthers selecting in the top 10 , what would you say?  If I told you it was pick #8 and only two QBs were taken in the top 7, what would you say?  If I told you this dude had us taking a defensive player, what would you say?
    • It is due diligence at that point. Irresponsible not to take him.  Crossing my fingers on this one, he has everything you look for except experience.
