Darnold didnt have a winning season, or a playoff win.

Baker had a much better roster around him than Sam has had.  Sam and Baker are the same dude.  One is flashy.

LAST RESORT, 11th hour--and this will blow some basement-dwelling minds: 

what if the Panthers, realizing that they are out of the DW sweepstakes, agree to take Matt Ryan and his  $40m salary for NO picks?.  That would give Carolina a bridge QB for a year or two while they find a replacement.  They could then draft LT with the #6 pick and be done.

I am not that serious about this, but it was a thought...

 

Funny idea but will not happen. Panthers are still a long shot because I believe Watson will wait as long as he can to go to Atlanta.

i wouldn't mind Carr but i'm def not trading anything significant for him. Minshew is all hype. Baker is a diva who isn't good enough to be one. Draft is weak. Smart move is probably to strengthen the Oline, let darnold and rhule blow up this season and let a new coach pick a QB from a quality class next year

I know.  But still, we zig when they zag...(Just acting up at this point)

Rhule was in the meeting. 

They probably promised him input in decisions.  Which frankly is generic talk for any high value QB. 

And Watson was probably thinking I can't imagine spending 10 hours a day around this guy

We keep harping on this idea but Rhule isn’t gonna lie down and take it which is the reason I believe we will do something at QB.

Eh I think Baker has much better composure and leadership qualities.

Why would they accept your proposed trade offer?   They are giving a way a franchise qb and all they get is to switch 1rsts?   Dude you have been just really insane the past few days 

cool man, you can always elect to ignore me and live on.

Make Rhule live or die by the Darnold decision.   Darnold has the skill set--so coach him up, coach.

Matt Rhule and co are under pressure to win this year. He will not be patient enough to develop a rookie QB. That ship has sailed. They will be trading for a QB or signing a veteran FA most likely. 

Yeah, good luck selling that narrative

I'm not even sure they'd make the playoffs WITH Watson

Rhule is that kid in the third grade that nobody likes who sits near you in the cafeteria and keeps asking you for your yeast roll.

I really hope that all these players don't immediately hate rhule as much as everyone here thinks they do.

I prefer to think he is a good salesman who they would only learn to hate later.

I wouldn't argue that.  But I don't think that elevates him into a much better QB.
