1-3... but what are all these other qbs playoff records as well? The fact he gets you there is testament enough to his eliteness. He's definitely top 10.

Lol nobody cares about regular season production. 

You can't fake your way through the playoffs

Neither Willis (who will not play this year) or Pickett is going to move the win total in his favor this late in the game.   His best and only hope is to pray darnold gets him to 8/9 wins.     

Who says he's not playing... nobody drafted in the first at qb in recent memory has not played. Unless you have a better option like Jimmy G or Aaron Rodgers. You think Rhule is going to bank his future on Darnold? Plz... his best hope is a young qb whom he can get some excitement about. A young qb wins rookie of the year maybe not playoffs but generates enough hope that he gets another year....

Darnold doesn't get you to the playoffs your fired period. Would you bank your last shot on Darnold doing that? I get it's not the ideal situation. But the guy is a lame duck coach... and sometimes you got a shytty choice vs a awful choice.  But still a choice has to be made.  There is no tomorrow.

Everyone does thats why we play the games... that's where hall of famer are made. What emitt smith's rushing record only counts in the playoffs? How many yards would he have in 13 seasons 500?

Why do you have such admiration for Lamar and Willis?

I mean I don't really love Lamar. But when you 2 bring up "running qb" isn't he the face of running qbs today? Like he's the highest standard of running qb. So I use him to further my argument. If the ravens make the playoffs every single year with a running qb and we have never done that as a franchise...

Doesn't that mean that you can can compete with a running qb.. he at the least gets you to the dance. Willis is not a slam dunk or Trevor Lawrence. But his God given tools give us the most to work with.  Having more tools and options to win games(arm and legs) are better than just 1.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Really? You don't see why a team can't draft a QB in the 1st round while then starting their former #1 overall pick over them while on the last year of their deal? It puts the team in a TERRIBLE place no matter how the season goes.  If Bryce sucks, you have to answer questions as to why he was still on the team to begin with, let alone starting over the rookie.  If he's good, then you run into the situation the Vikings were in last offseason with sticking with the rookie contract or the the guy who just performed instead of said young QB. It's one thing when teams keep a vet around as a bridge QB, it's something entirely different when that QB is still only in their mid 20's and was taken #1 overall by that team.   That just doesn't happen and not sure it ever has in NFL history before.

      Where panthers draft ranked against Big Boards in 2023

      What is the alternative? - BY, will not play for less then his perceived contract (just like Cam Newton did). So you pay him top of market as befitting a 1st round, Heisman winning, playing birthing QB would get. Or you cut him. - Then we are forced to either sign a stop gap QB / previously failed QB and try to fix him or you spend a 1st round pick and draft a guy, basically resetting the team.  The reality is that we all want a top 5 QB. The problem is there are only 5 of those guys in the world and drafting, even #1 overall doesn't guarantee that.  The other problem is the NFL market. Young QB get paid. Even an average, young QB gets top of market deals. I know a lot of people here think we could sign him to an 'average QB contract' but thats not reality. Didnt happen with Cam wont happen with BY.  So we could let this season flush out and he is again a middling QB. But then we cut and restart or accept it is what it is (including compensation) and build a team around what we have.  My money is on the latter.

      That doesn't void his contract
