There’s going to come a time when we’re playing from behind and he’s asked to make chicken salad out of chicken sh!t and that crowd will sadly jump all over that. I actually hope he does go throw some growing pains with this team this season. Just for his development sake. Sam ain’t broken. This is his first year actually learning how to play QB. So far he’s been great. 

At the end of day he’s already proven that he can play. He’s 24. A year younger than Josh Allen and 2 years younger than Baker Mayfield. 

I actually thought we were toast when CMC went down. Just because so much of the game plan revolves around him and to change that mid game is tough. Sam came out in the second half an area where we’ve struggled and balled the hell out.

I do agree that he came out in the 2nd half and balled out.  I am a very happy Panther Fan because I think Fitterer and Rhule stole him from the Jets.  That said, lets not forget that Hubbard came out a different RB than he was in the 1st half.  Giving him the opportunity to practice as the #1 RB in practice is going to help us.

Darnold led us in the 2nd half and Hubbard did a good job filling in. 

He's not CMC but he has the potential to be an important part of our offense.

“I think, No. 1, if you watch the way we called the game, it means we trust him. Even on the last drive, we're throwing four verticals with him,” Panthers head coach Matt Rhule said of Darnold. “I say to myself all the time, These are professional football players. They've been doing this their whole lives. Let them go play. Don't try to over-manage the game. Let them go play, let them make plays. Sometimes you go for it fourth and half a foot and you don't get it and they make a play, and sometimes we go make a play.

 

“I think one thing about Sam, he has some moxie. He stayed in the pocket. Had that long run called back, but finding Terrace on the third and 12, I mean, there were some huge conversions by Sam. Again, it's just him playing within the system, but also I think he has a courageousness, but he's not crossing the line going over the top. He's protecting the football and still pushing the ball down there, and look at the play Alex Erickson made. That ball, is it going to be picked, is it not going to be picked. Makes a great play. So a lot of production from a lot of different places."

Through three games, Darnold currently leads the league with 888 passing yards and is tied with running backs Derrick Henry and Nick Chubb for the most rushing scores with three to his name. By coming out of the gates strong, Darnold seems to have quickly demonstrated what he is capable of in a new setting in Carolina. 

“That he can ball man,” Panthers linebacker Haason Reddick said. “Sam, he’s a gamer. Guy’s a flat-out baller right now.” 
 

“We got a good one, man,” Panthers left tackle Cameron Erving said. “We’ve got a good one and he’s only going to get better. It’s always hard playing without one of your best players, but Sam stepped up and did a tremendous job tonight.”

Where are the posters saying Darnold can only hit check downs to CMC?

Where are the posters questioning his leadership?

Come on out, guys. Tell me why Darnold isnt going to work out because he's the same he was in NY under Gase.

Yeah its nice.  Its is AWESOME that certain doomsayers have disappeared.

They are sulking secretly hoping we flop so they can come back on the board and say "I told you so."  Some are brave enough to keep repeating "It's early yet."   over and over until its late.

It is early.  But the early returns look good for the panthers and bad for the huddle whiners.

well as far as checkdowns…

That really wasn’t the critique.  Sam isn’t a checkdown QB.   The complaint was through camp, preseason and week 1 he appeared to be coached into being one.    Because that isn’t how he has ever played…and we didn’t need to ask him to be Teddy.   Could of just kept Teddy who is great at that if that is what they were going to do with Sam. 

He is now playing the field like he always has.  Which is good.

Fair enough.  It felt like a critique he wasn't seeing the field enough.  I agree that he was being coached to take what defenses give him... the offense is predicated on short timing routes that include the RB... So it does make sense.

      Off season talk.

      By pantherj · Posted

      I always just go back to what I said at the time. Trade Burns to the Rams because it's a fantastic deal. I was screaming it. I'm still angry at Fitt over that. Right after he turned down the deal I said he needed to get into a time machine and go back and make the deal. Hate that dude. Ruined our team. Trading D.J was a major mistake because what matters most in the NFL is the passing game, so you never unload a proven #1 WR when there are other options. Always trade a defensive player over a WR if you have that option available. Fitt was precious about defensive players when we had a passing offense that didn't function. That's how know he was completely incompetent. The passing offense is the top priority, so until that is functioning all defensive players are possible trade fodder. At this point we're in a rebuilding year under a new GM and a QB who looks absolutely horrendous. It makes perfect sense, if you follow all of our moves, that we would be the worst team in the NFL. Of course we are. You can't screw up as a GM that many times over the years and not ruin the franchise. We're exactly where we should be, dead last, or bottom 3. Whichever you like. But this is the here and now. Dan did a good job getting our 2nd round pick back, and we won't know about the picks until they take the field in regular season games. We're in dark until then, but if they suck the Panthers media will hide it shamelessly. Remember when Young was supposed to be a football genius? Yeah he was rancid turds out there when live fire started. There is some hope. Either Young improves and we win more games, or he stays about the same and we draft a new QB in 2025. Either way the NFL will help us out of this jam, but all we need is for Dan not to screw it up.
