Really wish there was an easier way to catch Panthers games out here on the West coast. From the highlights I saw, Sam looked good. As the season progresses and he gets more comfortable, I think we’ll see some great plays with our offense more in sync. We definitely need to do something with our O line.

Well we have to understand too he's prob still learning the playbook too. I think most of his prob was the Jets and not his own. I mean Wilson is going to see ghosts by week 8 if they don't protect him better.

Rhule is treating him like a rookie.  He looked like a rookie yesterday.  That is the correct approach if you want to rewire him.  Will it work?  Only time will tell.

After rewatching there’s about 3 throws he just sailed. 1 was in the end zone the other 2 would have been chunk plays. Clean that up and today everybody would be talking about our new franchise QB. Sam seems to be a slow starter so hopefully as he gets comfortable there’s less of missing wide open guys. All in all I give him a B+

I don't think there is much to rewire except protection and better players. I mean Sam was getting Drilled by DEs for two years. Not much you can do when you get hit and the WRs drop your ball.

I saw a lot I was encouraged by, and excited about moving forward.  That 2nd qtr, he looked like a 3rd overall pick/franchise QB.  But, ngl, all the hype I felt from that, it quickly subsided in the 2nd half, and honestly, the 2nd half left a sour taste in my mouth overall.  I'm hoping he just feels more confident about what he did right early, and carries that forward and builds on it.  But, that 2nd half was hard to watch...  I know it wasn't all on Sam bc Brady's playcalling went to poo too, but that was rough.

He looked better than a rookie.  Made a few protection calls and audibles at the line.  He handled the pressure with poise.

    • Have you seen the mock drafts lately?   Most of them have us taking a QB. Just because you aren't high on these QBs doesn't mean the Panthers or other teams aren't.   If you want me to be real I just think you a Tmac homer and all you care about is us drafting him. It's why you get so defensive when people mention other prospects.   Be open to other people's ideas. Nobody in this thread is saying anything bad about your boy Tmac. 
    • Oh good lord Interest doesn't mean interest in making a bad trade to take the player, that's why I had such a long post, to accurately describe why those are two different things, but you don't like to listen to that stuff.  Being interested in a player doesn't live in a vacuum. It's very simple... there isn't a #1 draft pick type of grade on any of these QB's, if there was, we'd just take them.  You can't bluff a pick everyone knows you won't make, and trying to trade the pick is the CLEAR signal that you're not taking the QB. Just because the Raiders would have interest, doesn't mean they're going to bail us out of a situation we don't want to be in, they'd be smart about it and just sit put, let us take a non QB as we'd be telling the world we're not taking one just by trying to trade the pick, and then they'd take him at #2 (either with their own pick or by trading less to get that one). Oh, and your point of "if nobody is willing to make the trade, you obviously just take the best QB" is quite literally the dumbest thing I've ever read on here. If nobody is willing to trade up to take the QB, then it's OBVIOUS that the QB isn't worth taking with that pick, so OBVIOUSLY taking the best QB there is just OBVIOUSLY stupid and a bad pick. The moral of it is if there is a QB worth taking, we're taking them and not making the trade.  If there isn't a QB worth taking there, nobody is trading up to #1 to take one, we just showed the NFL how bad of an idea that is 2 years ago, it's really not hard to see. You keep making up this mythical situation where there is a QB who has shown to be worth trading up to #1 for and we'll be able to leverage that into a trade.  But we're the most QB needy team in the league, if we end up with the #1 pick, either we are taking a QB #1 or no QB is going #1 unless we get VERY lucky and two teams in the Top 5 fall in love with one prospect and we can play them off each other and fleece one of them. But again, I can't see that happening, as if there was a QB worthy of that, we're just taking him ourselves.
    • Sanders is with Tom Brady brand and that's his mentor. The Raiders owner was with Sanders taking pics at a Vegas game together.   It doesn't take much to connect the dots that Vegas will be interested in Sanders as their franchise QB. Oh yeah and guess who hasa small ownership stake in the Raiders Tom Brady.   I guess this is just another made up Madden idea by me huh?
