Rumor: Garoppolo could be flat out cut.

if it’s just a year or two and meaningless cap, key word meaningless - like cam got, who cares really

yea we could roll it over but it’s not that big of deal, this young team needs experience with at least a mediocre qb that won’t lose the game for them, I think there is a lot of value in that

i don’t see Rhule lasting after a 8 win season and if he does better and goes playoffs he deserves to stay imo despite all the pitchforks

They don't need experience being mediocre. They need experience with a head coach that knows how to get them to winning. That's absolutely not Matt Rhule.

Won't lose the game for them? Did you miss the last time Jimmy G was on the field?

You need to wait at least 2-3. After just a year, last year's super strong on paper QB class ain't looking so hot 

Lance was always talked about as a project. Lawrence ended up with disaster Meyer and Fields got stuck with a recently fired head coach himself too. Wilson had a little better luck with the Jets and they somehow have a better QB room than us and they have our draft picks. I don't see how we are in any position to hold our nose at any other rookie quarterbacks considering how scared we are to draft one of our own but go off if it makes ya'll feel better.

I'm not talking smack about last year's class. My point was that it takes more than one season to judge a draft class.

I don't want us to substitute one lame ass QB with another. He's not an answer and if he's not an answer I'm not interested.

My fear is that they would treat him like he was the answer and I just don't want any part of that. 

They dug their hole with Darnold, for all I care they can rot in it until we wise up and get a HC who won't fug up. 

There's not a vet answer available and there isn't going to be one this year. 

Either we draft one or (more preferable) roll with who we've got and fix the damn OL.

 

Garoppolo is way better than Darnold. San Fran sucked before he got there even with Shanahan

they need experience in confidence which is hard when you have no chance, yes they do need a HC and I’m sure they’re well aware Rhule is on the hot seat

i was comparing to Darnold and comparing to cam who also stunk, G would be better than either that’s pretty obvious

also comparing to options…I’d rather draft and olineman and pay G nothing to probably not doing anything than draft from this group of turds and go qb next year than do something dumb like take Pickett

Or you could just hold your nose for a season, keep that money you'd be wasting on Jimmy G or on a QB in the draft and eventually it just works itself out naturally.

I am not anti-Jimmy G, I am anti giving Rhule enough time to send us further into Browns purgatory.

      Dan looking at a new Conerback!!!

      Nothing wrong with starting to look for bodies early. It's a long injury filled season. I doubt we get through unscathed.

      Adam Theilen said he came back to play with Bryce, and he expects the Panthers to surprise some people

      By Icege · Posted

      We're in alignment regarding Thielen not being a game changer/breaker for the Panthers. Getting the ball into hands of playmakers like TMac and XL is going to open up things more than it is getting it to Thielen underneath (or letting him go after 50/50 balls 20yds downfield in his mid-30s). However, in a room where the other guys are two second year guys and two rookies, having a reliable vet that they can learn from is just as important as it is for the QB to have as a reliable third option. I can see that being worth $8.5M (just 3%) of the $279.2M cap... especially when looking at what's left out there: https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/free-agents/_/position/wr However, the idea that the team is forcing production to Thielen and leading to losses isn't supported by the data. Targets, not receiving yards, are how you can tell if a player is being "force fed." In the two games mentioned, let's look at the other players available... vs. TB 10 targets - Adam Thielen 9 targets - David Moore 8 targets - Tommy Tremble, Xavier Legette 3 targets - Jonathon Brooks 1 target - Dan Chisena, Feleipe Franks, Stephen Sullivan vs. PHI 11 targets - Adam Thielen 8 targets - Xavier Legette 5 targets - Chuba Hubbard, David Moore 2 targets - Tommy Tremble 1 target - Ja'Tavion Sanders, Deven Thompkins There isn't exactly a bounty of other names to throw the ball to. In those games, AT was one of the top 2 WRs. Diontae had been gone by that point.   So... yea. Agreed that Thielen isn't exactly carrying the team in his mid-30s, but it's undeniable that he was the most reliable target last season that still has quite a bit of value this season. Whether or not that value is reflected in a manner folks think on the contract is going to come down to personal taste. However, the idea that the team was forcing production to AT and that was the reason behind some losses couldn't be further from the truth.

      I would also add that I think it's more than money.  AT has looked absolutely miserable out there at times, and there was a lot of speculation he would demand to be traded.  Personally, I thought he was a lock to be moved last year.  Maybe his hamstring is the only thing that prevents that from happening. The fact that he's not only willing to come back and play, but excited about it, really bodes well for Bryce.  AT is a veteran and he knows the game.  If he didn't have confidence in Bryce, I guarantee you he wouldn't be in a Panther uniform this year.  I'll take that as a positive.
