You said the same thing about Bridgewater

Yes. Teddy is Teddy.  He was before Carolina.  In Carolina.  And now in Denver.   

the deep ball he made today? He did the same thing on a rare play in Carolina or NO or Minny.   It was a calculated risk.  And it wasn’t risky.  He will take those.  Worst case scenario is an incomplete because he over throws a one on one to the sideline 

You can win an average amount of games with Teddy as long as you accept Teddy’s role.  Teddy was always better QB than Sam.  It’s why we were in every game late.    It’s was discussed at length this off-season. 
 

and we would have winning record with Teddy.  That doesn’t make Teddy good.  Makes him competent.  But you are going to do anything with that matters or be legit contenders with him….just.be middle of the road.

Or a rookie QB behind an improved line which is totally possible that you left out for some reason bc you have no imagination

Omg 

No, wat I don't have is an emotional or financial investment in this team, which is a painfully obvious commonality with you guys.

And, "improved" is a relative term and given the current O-line, an improvement doesn't amount to squat.

Imagine being SCARED to replace that guy bc you're scared to spend money in free agency and wanna draft a C in the top ten

Rhule is scared to replace/bench him because he traded 3 drafts picks and guaranteed him $18 million next before he even took a practice rep. Benching Darnold would be admitting to Tepper that he fuged up and has no idea how to evaluate or coach in the NFL. If he doesn't then fans are gonna start booing them during games or just not showing up at all. Either way I think Rhule is fuged

Darnold has won more games this season than either of those 2 combined with Carolina.

The version of Darnold after Dallas has been the worst multi game stretch for a panther QB period. Even that Dallas game was rough as hell and a lot of garbage time stats. So really he's been bad for over a month now. Soft schedule early with really green teams helped.

Then there was the Chris Weinke season that started with an unbelievable win in Minnesota, followed by 15 straight losses.

And once teams got tape on us and figured us out, we can't seem to adjust.   See Panthers circa 2020 for proof.

    • For starters, and again I am not sure what his capacity is in the media or how connected he is to the team, but I posted above Al Wallace says he is "absolutely" getting 50+ a year and he deserves it.  I obviously strongly disagree with it but it feels like like season when the team is slow leaking info to gauge the temp.   Secondly nobody on Gods green earth is going to sign an extension making less than he is making now.  Thats just crazy talk.  
    • No. Physical tools alone aren't enough. There are plenty of examples of draft busts to support that. Aost all of them had the physical tools and that wasn't enough. But Bryce is a perfect example of the opposite. Absolutely elite intangibles aren't enough either. If you simply don't have the physical abilities all the football intelligence and work ethic in the world won't be enough to overcome it. Just look to the sidelines every Sunday. We call those people "coaches".
    • As much as I despise Billy B, his philosophy on QBs is how I would approach things if I were a GM. You always keep looking for your next starter.  He has Bledsoe, who got injured and his backup ended up being the GOAT. Even while he had that going, he kept getting his next guy and developing them. When Brady got hurt, Cassel stepped in and went 11-5 and they missed the wild card by dumb luck. Who knows how far they would have gone if they had gotten in. Jimmy Gs career started in NE. There were others, but he always kept looking.  You can't be afraid to keep looking for your next starter, but it looks like we're afraid to look for more than a marginal one. If you're going to offer a $25m contract with incentives, that screams marginal QB. It also screams you're just a transition until we find our guy. After a 10 or 11 win season, he's not accepting that offer. And then you're in a Daniel Jones situation. Do you pay for a year of success and pray it wasn't a one year wonder?  To this point, Bryce has really produced nothing, yet for whatever reason, our FO has not even sniffed at the idea that we need a real QB room with real QBs. Dalton was never starter potential, Plummer was a joke. KP certainly isn't, neither is Grier.  Our approach to the QB room needs to be one of strength not fear. Bring in guys who can compete or who you think can compete. This is THE elite position, in an elite sport, paid premium salary, where production matters. Either you produce or you can lose your job. It's not mean, it's just the reality of the position.  And I'm really just tired of our candy ass approach to it.
