Hard to be high on Darnold and then saying senslesss turnovers must end.  I  mean that is Sam's entire colleigate and professional career.  He is the posterchild. 

But Ben is just doing what he has to do.   He stuck with Sam so what can you do. 

I mean Sams got everything but the brain. His 2018 comments were pretty much the same as today, has occasional magic to his game but has some fundamental issues that no one's ever really bothered to work on. Either way McAdoo is struck me as way smarter than Rhule and much better with his choice of words.

what did you expect him to say?  "Yeah Sam is a turd we cant wait to scrape off our boots"

I mean, he is in a bad spot and can only say and do so much

But to be honest, I would like the Sam BS to end.   I'd rather him say some BS about every spot will be competed for.  Best man plays.  I don't think Sam has earned default starter status at this point in the nightmare.

How can he say that when there is no QB comp on the roster at this time, and ultimately this is a Rhule decision as far as who plays.

Mcadoo when asked how much he values readiness or potential, he said something along the lines of he would rather swing for the fences. That is an interesting tidbit, my call is Howell or Corall.

Willis has the most upside according to most. That would be the swing for the fences if they stay at 6.

Speaking at a presser, Panthers OC Ben McAdoo was asked if Sam Darnold was Carolina's starting quarterback and said "yes."

"That is something I shouldn't have said," McAdoo added. From the mouths of babes. We guess we can't rule this out being some sort of clumsy smokescreen, and nobody should be surprised if the Panthers draft a quarterback. But one of the league's elite Down Bad teams continues to present itself as extremely Down Bad. “Sam was one of the people that intrigued me for the job. Sam does have some magic in his game," McAdoo also said.

His best magic trick is making our offensive possession disappear.

I look at Sam Darnold and I look at PJ Walker....and if you didn't know how they arrived into the NFL and where strictly viewed as two dudes who play QB.....I'd say they are the same tier QB.  Different pros and cons but same tier. 

and yeah, Ben is just saying what Rhule wants.  And clearly they have already discussed Sam is the guy as of right now. 

My preference is simply they stop with the Sam BS.  He isn't very good.  And based on Rhule and even Sam himself in that van interview.....reality seems to be something that is missing at BOA.   lol Sam saying he has proven he can be a very good QB.  We have a HC and a QB who are utterly clueless.  I got no problem with whacky confidence.  For 3rd string to think he can be an All Pro.  I'm cool with the mindset but not fake realities.  Sam has sucked.   He hasn't proven he can play at a high level.   And this charade he should he is a default starter at this point? ....... is just old.

      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.

      This damn play is shown as one of the worst sports plays of the year on a Canadian sports channel on repeat. The reminder on a weekly basis keeps me from being too happy with our playoff appearance.
