This loss is on the receivers, not Sam.

Sam has to throw to where recievers will be. He does one of four things:

2. Throws it behind receiver so they have to stop or slow down, which causes some drops (not all drops, but some)

Countless complaints today that Darnold led receivers into defenders. So... does he throw behind them or lead them into defenders?

sam played good enough enough to win today and then some

He likely won't ever be a top 10 QB but with all the investment in the D and having CMC and the contracts they give to WRs and will obviously have to give to Moore he is more than good enough to win with an OL and running game.

Still have time to draft more offense next year and see what it looks like in the draft after that as they are not going to be drafting a QB and that's obvious. Seems like we'd make a play for Watson before that and obviously he's better than Sam but wouldn't be given this OL. I don't want him injured in a hypothetical either. Get the OL fixed first and foremost but if the chance to get someone like a Watson or Stafford happens you do that but Sam isn't the main issue just isn't going to be a top 10 guy.

If you fire Joe Brady while giving him no OL and only Bridgewater and Darnold at QB, I'm not even sure if Mike Shula would take the job. Top candidates are gonna elect to take other jobs instead.

So you are ok with robby or dj being the first read on every play? Comeback routes over and over? No QB is going to look good with this craptastic playcalling.

7 offensive points in 3 quarters. Without the blocked punt for a touchdown we aren't even in this game. I have no response for anyone who walks away from this loss thinking Darnold and these receivers don't need to put in a ton of work. That begins with Sam Darnold stepping up and being the leader of this offense. We have gone out of our damn way to make him comfy we don't even have a viable backup. If the receivers are struggling rally your offense and stop throwing picks or putting the ball on the ground.

The offense would've looked a lot better if receivers were catching the ball. 

Every pass play is designed to get the ball out quickly because bad things tend to happen when Darnold has time.

Sam may not be the future. Sam may have shat the bed the past two losses.

But played good enough today for what he is. He led a last minute drive with precision passes. He side stepped poo blocking (once again).

Today we lost because of drops. Had the receivers caught those dead on passes, we would’ve won, guaranteed.

I understand the concerns of Sam but let’s keep this in perspective.

Its on the OC first...then OLINE....then everyone after that...

      I’m expecting a breakout season from Ja'tavion Sanders

      By Car123 · Posted

      Not many are talking about this player. He played well as a rookie last year. If he refines his blocking, continues studying film, and keeps working hard, I can see him being the next Greg Olsen. I’m expecting 55 catches, 700 yards, 4 TDs this season.

      How would you feel if Bryce did this in 2025

      By Tr3ach · Posted

      I'm not a Bryce hater and I would 100% move on.  Especially looking at how the upcoming qb draft looks on paper.  Hopefully he continues to improve but if in 3 seasons you're still chasing average season numbers then he's not going to be the guy.  You've just got to keep taking swings until you hit.  Average qbs without any elite physical traits cant get it done anymore.  So this year Hopefully he continues to develop and is above average statistically.

      An honest look at Bryce Young

      By panthers55 · Posted

      Meltdowns???? He was pulled by Canales because he wasn't executing the game plan after 2 games into the season so he could watch Dalton execute the offense and show Bryce the windows available in the NFL, how to push the ball down the field and how to step up and move around when blitzed. When Young came back 5 games later he clearly watched and improved. Enough he was named the future starter. He doesn't have a history of  meltdowns nor is there any reason to assume he will have one. From what I have read he is mentally strong and emotional stable. He may have bad games down the road, everyone does. But this is all a learning experience for him and so far he seems to be making progress. I can understand being hesitant on anything Panthers, but Young has surprisingly been able to gain his confidence after a disastrous start. You aren't alone in being cautious but I think he is the future. I thought he was too small and too short to succeed in the NFL. Honestly I was pleasantly surprised last year and am optimistic about the offense for the first time since Wilks and Dalton were decent.
