I think the best situation is what Rhule has already said will happen. Its an open competition. Darnold should win that. 
 

If Darnold sucks and we finish bottom 5 we are drafting another QB next year for our new head coach.
If Darnold pays mediocre then Corral is again in competition with Darnold.  

I am still bullish on Darnold. I think him having competition will actually push him to be better. He is still young and has all the tools. 
 

Who is at QB doesn't matter to me as long as they earned that spot.

I don’t think it will be an open competition. And I’m okay with that.  I don’t want them to throw Matt out there to start the year off.  

Sam is going to be defaulted into the starting job.  And I suspect Rhule will handle him very similar to last offseason/preseason.   Largely keep him out of sight and focus on him checking down.  

because If you make it a real competition it means exposing all your QBs to real completion and scenarios.  And Matt likely won’t be ready right away and Sam will look bad because he always looks bad when you asked him to be a NFL QB whose hands aren’t tied down.  And you don’t want to go into a season with Sam imploding and still have to start him

Matt will start when BOA tells Matt Rhule what to do.  

The boos were impactful last year.  I suspect they will be this year too. All will come down to how long Sam can keep the crowd off him.

      Great point.    I would lke to add that there is another QB on the roster who was terrible over the middle--Kenny Pickett.

      I don't think this is the year for Carolina, unfortunately.  I think they will have to make a decision on the QB position-all we know is that Bryce has year 5, but a long term deal has not been signed--yet--and they would be smart to take a "wait and see" approach.  I have not kept up, and I see a path to upside for Bryce, but I do not think we have aggressively pursued a QB when our QB was mediocre to worse than mediocre.  yes, his numbers are improving--but he has adapted by eliminating what he does poorly and not improving on what he does poorly.  Just my take and I have no data to support this view.   Basically, we go as Bryce goes, so the approach is not to bring in a QB to have him compete until we find one, but it is to make Bryce as good as he can be--is that good enough? Season ticket holders buy the hope of winning rings, not winning 8 games. Last year, Bryce had a resurgence.  Take away TMac and Rico Dowdle.  How good was he?  I still have hope.  Not a hater of plan A, but a hater because we have no plan B.

      Yeah man, I've been here for a very very long time. Couldn't even begin to tell you what year. Maybe 2004 or 5? I've never really been super active, just enjoy reading everyone's opinions and discussions. I'll chime in from time to time. I have had a few different accounts over the years. It's always been a fun place for me to check in on my favorite team. Hopefully we can keep the place running for a long while still. I also would like to recommend bringing back the Lovely Ladies page!
