As one of the OG Corral Homers on here, and still coming off of the high of last weekend, here's my bold prediction:

Corral is starting by week 1. Why? It's his swagger and mojo. It's going to infect this team. And then you'll see the improvements in his footwork and that arm in training camp is gonna have yall screaming "holy poo."

Darnold will be one of the best backups in the league this year. And next year he will be someone else's backup. 

I'm living and dying on the Matt Corral train. As long as he doesn't get hurt, he's going to electrify for a long long time.

After watching actual Corral game tape from last season, they need to get him alot of time to develop down field accuracy. His short to medium game is fine, but he tends to over throw the deep ball. For him to be a NFL top ten in the future....got to get that deep threat to develop.

Yeah, but at least he has the arm strength to work with. It would be way different if he was leaving them short or putting too much air under it trying to get it down field.

Christian McCaffrey was the most exciting Panthers rookie since then. Luke Kuechly? I'm sure that there are more. 

Quarterback is not our problem. Offensive line play was our issue. So on that topic I'd say Icke is the most exciting since the Panthers left tackle has been hot garbage since Gross retired.

Worst starting QB in the NFL in back to back seasons yeah quarterback was not our problem lol.

Put him with nfl wrs and he will get that timing down.

I said this in a different thread, but I like Corral's leadership ability over Darnold's already. If he's that much better then I hope they make the switch quickly. I'm just worried about who is going to be getting the #1 reps and who the hell is going to lead that QB room. They need a professional clipboard holder in there asap.

You're right, but I think it's just a timing issue.  He didn't attempt to throw a lot of deep balls in that offense (especially after Moore got drafted), so I think it's correctable.  As long as it's not a deep zone, overthrows are much safer than under...

Does anyone know when all of the draftees will be introduced? I think in the past they have had them all in Charlotte and had pictures. At that same time they were shown with their new jersey 

Most likely later this week.  Excited for the introductory conferences.  Corral will be a fun watch.

The problem there is if Sam Dawnold manages to win a few games before getting exposed. Then we have a BC situation all over again with Corral. 

What if Coral starts then he ends up sucking then Darnold comes in after a few games and plays well? Doubt it happens but it’s always possible.

Corral needs to play this year. If not from week 1 then at least 2/3 of the season. We really need to have some idea of what we have with him so we know if QB is still a major need next offseason. Not saying he has to win OROY or anything, but we can't go into next offseason without having some idea of what we have.

      PFF ranks the 2025 starting QBs

      By Seltzer · Posted

      I personally think you are trying to talk yourself into circles here... It's ok to say Bryce played incredible the last 5 weeks... I know there are plenty of people on this board who desperately need the doom-and-gloom narrative, but I genuinely question how much NFL QB play some of these people really have watched when they still question him being the unquestioned starter for next year...  Again, that being said, no one is crowning him at all. I think Bryce is one of the best stories going into 2025 bc his season last year was so outlandishly unprecedented. It's totally fair to personally not believe in Bryce. Plenty of sports "journalists" need to write stories, and that's an easy narrative path... But I think that actual people in the know rank Bryce much higher. That's the fun thing about sports... we shall see!

      Regardless of how we got here, any rational fan should be excited by how well Bryce played down the stretch. Anyone not happy about that level of play either doesn't know what they're looking at, or they're still trying to drive tired narratives. Obviously, Cam had an all-time rookie season, and I'm not putting the two in the same basket yet, but as someone who has watched every snap of Panthers football since the start of the new millennium (Im old), Bryce was playing at a higher level at the end of 2024 than Cam was at the end of 2012 (his 2nd season). Cam continued to develop into MVP form, something Bryce has to prove, but as someone who watched both (and will stan for Cam always), Bryce was playing at a higher level to end year 2 than Cam did.  Go watch the film if you dont believe me. None of that means anything for the future. But the people who said BY9 couldnt play in this league are wrong.   That being said, the only thing that matters is this year. #20 is perfectly fair IMO going into the season. I mean think about it, how would you rank him??!  His in-season turnaround is one of the wildest things I've ever seen... how do you rank a guy who looked like a massive bust in September and by January was consistently playing at a top 10 level? My excitement level is pretty damn high heading into this season. There were throws from the Chiefs game onward where Bryce had Drew Brees levels of anticipation. Im excited to see what he can do with a full deck on offense, something we really never gave Cam. Really hope and expect Bryce to move up this list this season.

      Not really, the only QB's (other than Anthony Richardson) ranked below him are new to their teams as a placeholder starter or drafted in 2024 or 2025, not a lot of gymnastics to get there. It's not about how many that is, if it's 20, 12, or 2... It means there isn't a QB who's team has committed to them for the long term right now that they have ranked below Bryce. That's not a great thing.
