That is . . . not a good career from an NFL prospect point of view.

The vast majority of college QB's see their completion percentage drop when coming to the NFL, and that guy doesn't have any room to drop.  And it's not like he was airing it out.

Not sure what we saw here other than a guy who might know the Jets playbook.

Our back up QB completed 40% of his passes in the preseason. It’s decent for us.

That's the real reason, plus it keeps Zod and David Newton busy researching about him...

they did win a handful with Dalton last year.  And Dalton looks like he belongs in the XFL at this stage. 

What would be worse? 

Losing to Will Grier with the Cowboys? 

Or Cam going to  Hou and losing to Cam complimented by the worst team in football? 

 

Don't rule out both happening. Or neither, if our offense balls out and the upperclassman Owls step up.

That may be true but you are not seeing the whole picture. WR dropped a lot of catchable ball thrown there way. And that is a fact. Given people pie and not letting them know it’s crap. 😂

Stats clearly don't tell you what actually happened but here they are

Game 3 - 13/23, 52%, 158 yards, 2 TDs, 1 INT, 2 sacks. Fum. 

Game 2 - 1/3, 33%, 5 yards

Game 1 - 5/9, 55%, 45 yards

Has a better arm than Grier (he starts at 4.10).

Woo hoo! If he didn’t miss time last year, I don’t want him. Kidding aside, that’s some ugly poo.

It sure seems our GMs cannot locate OL.  "Pssst. Elflein, Cam Erving--put down those cardboard signs and get over here.  I have some money and contracts for you..."

I still want to see them play for 4 games before passing judgement. 

As for Jordan, who knows. He seems to have very quickly fallen out of favour - started pre-season as the starter. He's worth kicking the tyres on.

I will say we're definitely leaning towards athleticism over size on the Oline. We're going to get bullied in short yardage situations.

Wide zone blocking scheme?

      Dan Morgan on the Rich Eisen show

      I suppose it depends on what you mean as 'elite'. I typically mean someone that can play with lower level pieces around them and still win. There are very few of those.

      The running back situation....

      By frankw · Posted

      It would obviously be incredible if Brooks came back and just ran away with the job on his opportunities like Rico Dowdle did last year. But any Panthers fan that has been around the block knows better than to go ahead and make plans for that. Brooks has missed a ton of not just playing time but meaningful early career growth in a league that has increasingly devalued the position from an investment standpoint beyond one or two superstars. There's really not any comparison to look back on that lines up with the current iteration of the league at least not favorably. The key thing that this RB room has going for them is our investment in the OL. The highest paid OL in the league two years in a row paired with our staff should make it easier for just about any RB to get into open running lanes. But that is also anything but a given considering our OL was largely middle of the pack last year. In the end it might all be a moot point anyways if we again struggle to establish a viable passing attack.

      I don't have him making the team and I think same goes for the staff, but they are hopeful for a PS spot.    I mean of course I'd like 3 all-world at RB and every spot, just doesn't work that why. Panthers normally carry 3. dan always talk up Etienne, even called him a future star.....I think Brooks will be fine as a 2 with health pls.....  Chubba can carry a seasons load as lead dawg.    Its fine, I mean backup OGs or CB is much higher on my worry scale(Id even put QB room as worse than RB room too...)
