Again you are getting way ahead of things because of your love for Cam. As a Panther fan we all hope Cam does great and our QB woes are gone. But that is far from given and right now Darnold is already getting paid. He has not really gotten a chance to sit and learn from a veteran pro. He is our back up or starter depending on how Cam and PJ do the next 4 weeks. There is plenty of time to evaluate everything after this season is over. 

He does more damage on the team then off. His cap hit doesn’t change that. The dude is done. I wouldn’t want him as a backup. If he starts next year we are fuged. If he has to come in to play we are fuged. If he’s a backup what purpose does he serve? He’s not good at film which is evident by his complete and total failure at processing what is happening on the field. The only positive thing he has is he’s a good teammate. I’d rather we bring a backup in that is competent.

Can we fleece ATL or something with Sam. 

Believe it or not, Ryan is actually having an above-average year by his standards – he's played well, and the emergence of Pitts / Patterson has somewhat offset the practice squad receivers and the 30th-ranked OL. On pace for 4,300 / 30 / 12.

Again why make any judgements until after the year. If Cam is great in this lineup then it is Darnold but if Cam has the same issue it might be the line and playcalling. So you let Cam play 4 games and then see who gives you the best chance to win the rest of the way. Besides Darnold could be a great backup who can win a game if necessary. Maybe sitting and watching will do him good.

Yes back up but not starter.  It's all 3 Darnold is not a starter. I just haven't  seen anything that warrant 1st rd pick Darnold. He is just meh.

I was referencing the 2nd try thing. They are not the same. Sam is a back up but expensive. If you can get anything for him that can be on the field more than a back up qb go for it

Think this is getting blown out of proportion. What we will do with Darnold is put him on IR and in 4 weeks see how Cam is doing. Darnold is signed through 2023. Those who were upset we moved too quickly from Cam seem to have no problem doing the same thing with Darnold. Maybe we should learn from history.

lol the situations couldn't be more different. One was a former MVP and one is looking like one of the bigger QB busts in the last decade, and Darnold's resume isn't even the same universe as Cam's when we got rid of Cam.

Already covered this ground repeatedly. Try to keep up. No one is comparing them as quarterbacks simply saying there is no reason to decide anything right  now. Cam hasnt played a down for us yet this time around. Lets see how he does and then decide where to go.

Regardless of what Cam does Sam ain't the answer. The only people who have any inkling that Darnold has possibility of being our starting QB next year or beyond is his small fan club sprinkled on this board. I don't think Rhule even believes that anymore.

    • Either way there's some tough teams on the schedule this year, on paper anyways. 
    • Same. I would prefer a MNF game earlier in the season. As if more likely has some significance in case things go south this season. If we perform well enough we could even get another game forced to a Sunday night spot later in the season. 
    • Wanted to jump into this thread. Although I do not post anymore I do look in as there are a few old friends around. Loved hearing some of the names you mentioned.  Another  oldie is NanceUSMC.  He is the one who got me here from the old Observer forum.  Good guy and smart football guy. I have learned a lot from a lot of good Huddlers over the years, Over time. we have sadly lost a few who left this earth too soon.  Anyone who know of someone, it would be nice to try to make a list.  One of the more recent, CosmoGirl,  was someone that kind of hit hard.  Life sucks sometimes. Some of the best times were when we had our own tailgate and could meet up in person.  I think it made us better. Several dedicated volunteers, lead by LiverMush, started setting things up in the wee hours of each gameday morning.  Don't know all those regulars but I remember JakeFlake was one.  For you newbies...each game,  a Huddler (or a group) sponsored the food for each tailgate.  Eating was free but a donation was asked for.  At the end of the year those donations were used to buy bicycles for Toys for Tots.  Over the years Huddlers bought a lot of new bikes for kids for Christmas.  (I am guessing a couple of hundred each year.)  We had a good time getting together, got to make friends in person, and then got to feel like you were doing something good. It was truly a community. I got to meet Dan Morgan at one of our tailgates...he brought pizza from his restaurant.  How many of you remember that?  Glad the restaurant did not make it....lol. Not only have people changed, and come and gone.....but the entire nature and purpose has changed. Nothing lasts forever and we move on but we still like to think about good times. Same reason we take pictures. Want to ask a question I have not seen anyone else mention......who remembers    "The Couch" ?  We have argued, laughed, lived the ups and downs of football and dealt with a little real life along the way.  A thanks to  the Mods who keep this going.  I am sure they sacrifice a lot of their time out of love for the forum and the Panthers. Take care my friends and be well.  I will close with my new favorite quote which I think is greatly needed in these difficult times.
