Or a change in position.

Since he likes to run a lot, maybe a TE or RB?   I mean...he is still a very good athlete so he might be able to do it (plus he won't be throwing any INTs so that's always a plus.  lol )

I'm all for trying to get something out of him that doesn't require him deciding who to throw the ball to.

I think 89 is the fanbases collective favorite of all time.  

I don’t think he was actually the best player to put on pads here.  Top 3.  Nor the most impactful.  Top 2. 

Cam Newton isn't a hof qb.

He wasn't ever a top 5 qb in the league 

He also wasn't even the best of his generation. 

He was a very good player for us but that's it.

I believe that Sam believes(and rightly so) that he would get sacked the moment he slows down his drop back.

Basically, he's ready to run from the moment the ball is snapped and that's not conducive to Good QB'ing.

The only question now is not *are* you related to Darnold, only how closely.

Parent?  Sibling?  Cousin?

But let me ask you :  What team out there would even WANT him at this point to even be a backup?

I think he's on a one-way trip out of the league entirely at this rate unless he changes positions or something 'cause being NFL QB may be a bit too much for him to handle apparently.

 I think it was reasonable and I endorsed us doing the same that just happened with Trubisky.  Throw him on a roster for a couple years and tinker with him and see…

but making Sam the dude was always crazy.   And frankly, Rhule doesn’t have defense for Sam and the way it went.   If you were even thinking of starting him you had to go get legit comp from day 1.

Sam is everything that fans tried to say our last real QB was; inaccurate and doesn’t have it between the ears. 
 

I hope we find another franchise QB soon. 

Completely agreed.. I stand on this with you until proven otherwise. Sam may need time to figure it out but.... You aint a rookie bruh. Cam found a QB coach before he even entered the league, after awhile I give no fugs that he didn't have a QB coach, find a way.

Sam is what we deserved after killing Cam.

I agree but don't.....no team deserves that from what we've seen so far. Nobody..

Is there anyone in here saying he was a HoF QB or top 5? It’s always funny when individuals like you try to discredit Cam, but tried to defend Darnold, who’s a lesser QB. He is everything people like you tried to say Cam was; inaccurate and not smart.

One was a starter and MVP, the other can't prove he is a good backup in year 4....

Ok.  Didn’t say he was.  Cam was the most impactful though.   89 didn’t draw folks or make us nationally relevant to the nation like Cam.  So Cam is the most impactful.  For many reasons… his role, load and MVP on a Carolina level and then what he did for us on the national stage. 

I think Luke and Peppers were better actual football players.  89 3rd, more entertaining because of position, trash talk, and after the whistle/play antics

And what does this have to do with what I said? 

most impactful - Cam, 89

best football player - Pep/Luke, 89

I never in a million years have said Sam is Cam or Jake.

I was hoping with coaching and a line he could become Steve Beurlien. 

 

I'm just tired of people making Cam out to more than he was. A very very good football player.

And you got tired of folks talking about Darnold until it was evident by everyone he was trash. I seen your post. You were wrong on Darnold.

      Preseason Week 3 - vs. Pittsburgh (practice tweets, discussion, etc)

      By raleigh-panther · Posted

      They had best show out in Week 1 there are zero,I mean zero,  excuses for that offense  defense, haven’t play together yet and they still have Mr Soft and Predictable as DC  I expect break downs at times  …but that offense returns all starters except Tremble and both Mayes and Brady are veterans and can play LG and know the system not up for any participation awards this season they can save that practice energy for Jacksonville.     I’m sick of the, winning,  or looking competitive, when it doesn’t matter.

      There are some tough decisions that I'm eager to see the results of... Does Blackshear sneak on to the roster as RB4? Does the team go with 4 TEs or just 3 again? And has Mitchell Evans done enough to defend his roster spot from James Mitchell? Who is WR6 and is there a WR7? TMac, XL, Coker, and AT seem to be locks imo and I'm assuming Renfrow also makes it due to all of the camp praise. Who makes it between Brycen Tremayne, Jimmy Horn Jr, and David Moore? If the team goes with 7 WRs, which one of those three doesn't make it? Jacolby George and Emani Bailey both have not gotten a lot of game time. Could the Panthers be trying to hide them so that they can be stashed on the PS? Do they go with 10 OL instead of 9? Who makes it out of Walton, Carter, and Kingston? DL locks are DB, BB3, ARob, and Turk. That leaves Jaden Crumedy, Cam Jackson, Sam Roberts, Shy Tuttle, and LaBryan Ray all competing for the final 1 - 3 spots. Does DJ Johnson get IR'd and Thomas Incoom make the roster as EDGE5? What in the fuuuuuuuuuuuuck is going to happen at LB? Only locks are Wallace, Rozeboom, and Cherelus (Wallace has mentioned in media how Cherelus has been big bro for him on the team) seem to be locks. Rhattigan had some good moments against Houston, Martin-Scott is an SC guy, Krys Barnes has popped on defense and on special teams, and Windmon got time starting for the team last season. Are two of those guys going to make it or are the Panthers poaching from another team's cuts? CB5... who is it? Do they go with the 4 expected safeties or bring in a 5th? Has Ransom done enough to take the start from Nick Scott?

      I had this discussion with my buddy yesterday afternoon. If we start this season very slow(especially with the schedule being what it is) and then "rally" in the second half to get to 4-7 wins, I am already gonna be pretty heated at the staff overall. I know we are a very bad roster but I am not gonna keep excusing these slow season starts WITH late season rallies. That's a coaching staff problem, IMO. It's more excusable to just stink gate to gate, IMO. At least you can understand why.
