Could Cam be 2022 Taysom Hill for the Panthers?

Somebody I know inside the team (with no football ops connection) suggested that could be a good situation for Cam, and I agree. He's the main back up but plays throughout the game (short yardage especially). Why not? If we don't draft a QB in round 1 or sign a top FA, why not ride with Sam and Cam for 2022. Build the O-line (which everybody under the sun agrees we need to do). In 2023 either through FA or draft when the team is "hopefully" an 8 or 9 win team and ready for the next step and move on from Cam and Sam if needed.

The Panthers will already be paying Sam over 18 million next year, i doubt if they would be willing to pay an additional 10 to 12 million for a situation quarterback.

No.  There is some truth to what Cam addressed with his dad in that football field interview.  Cam is naturally a massive personality and presence.  Unless your starting QB is someone like Ryan Fitzpatrick.  But a young QB you are trying to develop? to be the guy?  Cam to some extent gets in the way of them having the command they need to grow into.  Too many people would still be looking to Cam for too much.  And Cam would be too much of a leader and rally point.

I’m split. Darnold is already on the books for next season and doubt we can unload him to anybody. I don’t know if we should resign Cam to a team friendly deal and let him and Sam “compete” (lol). And use our capital to fix everything else. Or just say to hell with it and draft a QB.

If you draft a QB in the 1st, you don't get a good OL pick until the mid round. You have Sam and Cam would probably do a deal similar to what he did this year. I'm not saying this is what they should want to do but we may not have too many choices for 2022, with Sams contract and having no 2nd or 3rd round picks. And as a player told me recently, we have a lot of guys to pay for next year.

To me it’s personality.. cam is an alpha.. if he will take a below market deal or min and also understand and respect that he is not the starter and embrace the redzone qb role I’ll be okay with it and only okay with it if we don’t improve our qb situation at all.. if we get a high draft pick qb… cam has got to go ala patriots 2020… cam coming back means we failed in the off-season to secure a starting worthy qb..

      Should Dave Canalas be on the HOT seat??

      By strato · Posted

      considering [Dave] Canales enters Year 3 working for an impulsive owner. There’s not much room to slide backwards from an 8-9 season and 13-21 overall record. It doesn’t help that his primary job has been the development of quarterback Bryce Young, and the progress there has been inconsistent. Canales was supposed to turn the former top pick into a franchise quarterback. If that doesn’t happen by next January, the Panthers could be looking for both a new coach and quarterback." —————- The format of that doesn’t display on my iPad I had to paste it as plain text to see it so I am leaving it here to refer to… I am gonna disagree with a lot of that.  First reference is Tepper. That interview posted here a few days back gave me the impression that he is really happy with his FO. And Canales. Seat isn’t even warm as of right now. IMO.  The assertion that Canales is supposed to turn Young into a franchise QB is something I have never bought. First, how could anyone look at 2023Bryce and see a can’t miss Franchise player?  He was for sure a could miss.  I am not sure it was fix Bryce or you are both gone. Maybe that will happen The longer it drags on, I think maybe the more likely a total house cleaning could be an outcome. I mean it is only year 3 of Canales coming up. But as a couple of people like to point out, he has shown other concerning flaws that might damage his stock.  As far as the hot seat, mid season with 2-3 wins I would imagine yeah it would be pretty warm. I think a small regression to say 7 or maybe even 6 wins would be tolerated but the seat is warm for 2027. Depends on the circumstances.
