What About Mariota?

I'm not sure his being terrible is the worst case scenario.  Given his history that's probably the *best* case scenario b/c we're more likely to be able to draft one next year out of a (supposedly) good class.

Worst case?  He's just mediocre enough to put us drafting in the middle-back after his one year deal.  This seems more likely to me.

No thanks.

Why don't we kick the tires on Mariota?

 

Looked good in limited time this past season. With our improved offensive line and (hopefully) healthy CMC, he would be an extension of our running game and we would have more creativity on offense

 

Maybe sitting behind Carr has done him some good. If we aren't convinced any QBs in this year's draft are the answer, why not give Mariota a one year prove it deal to see what he can do?

Worst case, he sucks and then we can find a better QB in 2023!   He's a FA, and if he can be had for cheap, then I say pick him up!!  Can't be any worse than Darnold

    • That's certainly what we hope but c'mon... stating it as fact when he's never played a down of NFL football? 
    • What?!?!?! Chark's 1,000 yard season was 4 years before he played for us and he only had 525 yards in 15 games as our #1 WR.  Dude has 3,100 yards in 7 seasons, he's the literal definition of a JAG and you think he is better than half our current WR room? T-Mac is literally already better than Chark was at his peak, which again, was years before he ever even put on a Panthers uniform, and there is a real argument to be made that XL and Coker were both better as rookies than Chark was for us in his one season here.
    • Im glad we're starting low. It's nonsensical to put us at 28 IMHO based on objective things IMHO (I think 21-24) is far more appropriate but whatever. Washington was at the bottom last year FWIW.  In 2003, Sports Illustrated said our best chance to win the division was to transfer to the ACC. In 2015, everyone wrote us off as a team that snuck into the playoffs with a losing record in 2014 and lost our best WR in TC (Kelvin Benjamin). All these videos are fodder for conversation, but this prediction has no more validity than saying the Panthers are making the SB bc we're starting the season against the Jaguars again. If Bryce plays like he did down the stretch we will end up the season just fine. This roster is much better than it has been the last 2 seasons. No one knows who any season will ultimately end up, but this team is finally being built in the right way, and the idea that this roster can't compete this year is as insane as being it was when we were gaslit in 2023 that we were a rookie QB from winning the division with that roster.
