Trubisky? Rosen? Bortles? Gabbert? Locker? EJ?  Ponder? 

I mean what we attempted with Sam is unique.   No one is snatching up the really bad busted QBs and rolling with them right away. 

Seems like the path Young and them took still is in play.  Got to earn your way back to a chance.  

making Sam the dude seems like a pretty self inflicted mistake that a front office shouldn’t make IMO.  Got no issue with bringing a someone like him in to an org.  But you have to actually see if you can fix them first.   

All those situation had a legit starter or at least a starting option right?? Did we have that?? 

Context..

Favre and Young are outliers, I can name 5 other QBs for every Favre or Young.

 

I was right when I compared him to Josh Rosen. They just suck no matter the circumstances, no sugarcoating it.

The point was that it has happened.. I can come up with outlier for anything...

Tannahill, Brees , Warner with the Giants, Delhome with the saints.. 

Alot QB have gotten different scenery and produced at a new team...

The point of acting like it a unheard of plan is false..

Huh?  

no team snatched any of them up after they busted hard with the team that drafted them….and then attempted to make them the man immediately after.  You said the second chances now happen quicker….unlike in the era of all the other guys that also weren’t comps.

none of those guys stunk the league up for 3 straight years…and were then picked up to be the man right away somewhere else though.

How many criteria  are you going to come up with to make a point .

Does it have to be on every 3rd sunday in August on a leap year for it to be similar situation??

When you have to go as deep as well this guy didn't start right away or he had to do it for 3 years and it had to happen every 4th sunday in a month..

Your point isn't made..

Again agree to disagree..

You can believe what you want.. 

Facts are it has happened before it wasn't a outbound plan and so far it hasn't worked for us.  

Whelp Hopefully it works next time we try to resurrect a player.. Like many other teams have done in the past..

I choose to believe the Saints acquiring Brees isn’t similar to us making Sam the man.

Cool .. I choose to believe getting a player coming off a major injury to his throwing arm was a risk just as much as finding out if a once thought of top 5 talented pick could be developed with better coaching in a different situation.. Both are similar risk..

You can have your opinion and I can have mine...

I'm going to have to disagree with the whole "we need to fix the offensive line before we go after a franchise QB excuse "......cause a good competent QB with mobility can make an awful Oline look somewhat decent.  Just look at the titans and ravens who are both 5-2 with 3 less allowed sacks than the panthers. Both teams have been playing pretty well especially Baltimore considering all the injuries on defense.  Both teams possess a confident QB who can extend plays. Yes a good offensive line is important especially if you want to control the clock but I'm just saying if you have a QB like Watson who I think is better than Lamar and tannehill could definitely improve our offensive line so to speak

    • I'll be honest.  I'm not sure I want to see any those guys returning right now given what others are presently doing.... minus Coker.  Hubbard returning likely messes the run game up (I mean, it's going to come down regardless but he still), Tremble and Evans actually are doing well, Corbett seems to make us worse up front, and the D has made some strides.  I'd like to just keep that whole lot on the shelf this week.  
    • I don't think people know that Icky is still only 25 years old. Panthers signed UDFAs older this year and drafted DJ Johnson. Heres a fact, a deep fact.... Its easier(much) to find a good-great QB than good-great LT. Another fact there's only 12-15 true LTs and the others are larping as LT.  SO....(I'm not a fan btw)......you nearly must resign him at all cost even with him being around the 12th best at times. Its the hardest spot to fill and he's still awful young with 4 years as a pro. Carolina already got 4 years of "cheap" service as well, that's invested time and effort.  The fan-side of me hopes he signs some top 5 at best top 3 big money deal. Just the cap keeps growing and LTs, young LT with experience are rrrrrrare and unique. Tag him if needed and tag him again, then trade him. I think he enjoys being/living in NC.  I hope he's stays on a team friendly deal, but those are soooo rare these days.  Only two options- pay him whatever, even if it's top $$$$$(uggggghhhh..) or tag him for 2027 and keep trying to pay. Worst outcome is trading him for couple 1s, 3s, and 5th maybe a player too. 
    • I always loved DJ Moore.  I don't see him wanting to comeback here.  He seems to be tired of inconsistent QB play and you finally see that bubbling over in Chicago.  or maybe he just doesn't like the people.  He actually seemed fine with Fields.....and lobbied for them not to draft Caleb.  So maybe it's just a Caleb issue (and I think Caleb might have tons of baggage/issues that rub folks wrong)
