Teddy B I’m sorry, it wasn’t all your fault!

Teddy was trash. I’d still take Darnold over him. But he wasn’t the only problem. 

Ha.. This Sam Darnold quarterbacked team is some of the worst Panther football I've ever seen and I've watched nearly all of them. 

We were in every game last season even though we had a rookie coaching staff and undermanned talent wise. Teddy was the reason for that.

Agree that teddy isn’t the long term answer for any franchise, but he is capable of keeping an offence moving.

big criticism when he was here was the inability to get in the endzone… so far he’s on track to double his TD output he had with us.

Not clamouring for his return or being apologetic for him, but this is yet more evidence that our HC/OC combo can’t plan a proficient game plan, call effective plays on game day etc.

 

first TB and now Darnold, so far both QBs started ok, then massively tailed off as the season progressed. Not only that we are getting less out of them than their previous (and next) teams have.

Im convinced we have a HC/OC > QB order of priority to fix right now.

Denver also has the #3 defense by scoring in the NFL and caught Dallas on their worst day. Teddy and the Broncos have had their clocks cleaned by every other competent team they've faced, noting that garbage time have made things look closer than a few actually were (Dallas today included), and barely snuck by WFT. 

What does this mean? That Teddy is exactly who we know him to be, a middling QB who can avoid losing games when things are perfect around him but can't/won't elevate the team to rise to the level of higher competition. He's having a much better year than Sam, sure, but Carolina wouldn't be going anywhere with him and this staff except to perhaps a wild card loss. 

I'm not going to say that watching Carolina lose is a good thing because this is pretty awful, but it will be worth it if it exposes the emperor's lack of clothes and gets things on the right track. I will say I'm 100% with Jawny that last year was more than enough of Bridgewater's milquetoast BS when things mattered the most. Good riddance.

...just "sling it" baby...

Because even if Sam is playing worse now (and I’m not denying that he is) he still doesn’t play that infuriating chicken poo style of football that Bridgewater plays, with his wobbly floaters and passes anywhere but square and in stride. 

Like Dirty Harry says, "A man's gotta know his limitations." Darnold obviously doesn't know his. Give me a competitive game of football over a trainwreck any day. Darnold doesn't have the aptitude to be a signal caller! He hasn't shown the competency to even be a game manager because his decision-making is abysmal. No way I'd rather watch Darnold!

Yeah, anyone who would willingly choose this as an option is fuging nuts.

Most frustrating offense to watch since Pickles.

This to me stuck in my mind as a great summary. I agree with you in the order you have listed regarding HC/OC> QB . It's sad at this point but I feel like leadership is to blame now and not as much on Teddy or Sam. Teddy or Sam aren't great but I feel like our coaches are not putting them in position to be successful or even marginal middle of the pack QB's.

As frustrating as Teddy was to watch, it definitely wasn't all his fault.  It's also not all Darnold's fault either.

I think Joe Brady is in over his head.  He's just not ready to be an NFL coordinator yet.  What he did with LSU was trememdous.  But he didn't call the plays.  And that LSU team was most definitely stacked.  Justin Jefferson and Ja'Marr Chase against college competition is just UNFAIR.

We've definitely made poor decisions at QB.  But it wasn't all them either.  We just aren't right on that side of the ball, despite having perhaps the best set of skill position players we've ever had.

    • It wasn’t completely his fault, but outside of two throws and one or two scrambles he didn’t do much to help. His accuracy was all over the place, numerous passes that were placed poorly and didn’t give the receiver a good chance to catch the ball or do anything with it after. He also continues to display terrible pocket awareness. Even the sacks could have been avoided, they weren’t immediate like the pressure we got on Shough at times. Bryce just often has no feel for pressure and stands there waiting to get sacked after numerous seconds have passed. 
    • I really fuging hate this era in so many ways.  I look at those Adin Ross and Neon kids, and I just wonder why tf are they famous?  Why would anyone be desperate enough to gain THAT audience that they’d risk money, career, disciplinary action to go up there and associate with those fuging dweebs?  And back in my day, racist peers got their ass beat.  And not endorsing or approving bully culture, but checks and balances and all…  had those two been bullied, or at the very least humbled, they wouldn’t be famous and glorified for being the fuging idiots they are now.  It seriously pisses me off… they both have done and said multiple, openly racist stuff and major media keeps pushing them, talking about them, and propping them up… and then dummies like Puka who don’t need the platform or exposure lend their celebrity to them.  fuging idiot… and even the other streamers, I don’t get - Speed, Kai…  I don’t understand making nobodies famous at all, but there is at least entertainment value to some degree there, and I could see how young, impressionable kids would find them something to aspire to (sadly), or view as “cool.”  But Ross and Neon?  They’re just shitty, shitty nerds with big ass mouths. I’ve went back recently and watched some classics (in two very different eras and categories 😂)  like Robocop and Idiocracy.  And what I find fascinating is how both movies illustrate how stupid society became by showing what the citizenry is entertained by.  In both, society became anti-intellectual and the citizenry were entertained by lowest denominator, primal-type absurdity - poo like, “Ouch! My Balls!”  Or on Robocop, a guy is a watching a show where they are smashing cakes on ladies’ breasts and then a guy says a line as the camera zooms in like, “I’d buy that for a dollar!” and the audience thinks it’s hilarious.  That’s where I feel like we are now.  Like who watches that clip with Puka and thinks any of that poo is funny or cool?  If I was Puka, I’d honestly be wondering why tf I’m hanging out with these beta ass, racist, cretin ass weirdos.
    • 7 wins this year and some of those against really good teams and yall think Canales might get fired? Lol Good luck getting a better coach in here if that happens.
