Sam Darnold can be a bad at his job.  He can ALSO be used as a scapegoat at the same time.  Which he was and is. It's the whole two things can be true or apply concept. 

Sam Darnold was a problem here.  He wasn't the reason THE reason the offense sucked.   So the other reasons have to get their fair share of the attention because they are in reality are bigger factors.

When a Rhule defender brings up and gets hyper focused on Sam Darnold, they are generally using him as a tool to deflect away from the major factor (and bigger one) that Matt Rhule was in regards to what our pathetic offense. 

and the other problems are still here.  They deserve the focus.  Not Darnold. 

Again.....your entire rationale about Brady could be applied towards Sam Darnold.  Except not only do you not trip over yourself to rush in and defend Darnold anytime a criticism is levied towards him as you do for Brady, but you actively participate in the trashing of Darnold.  Possibly more than anyone else.  Are you or are you not deflecting blame from Rhule every single time you trash Darnold? I think Darnold deserves a ton of blame for our offense so don't misconstrue this as me defending Darnold, I'm instead trying to understand your argument.  You're saying one thing but your pattern of behavior prove the complete opposite.

I'm simply asking you what's the difference between the treatment of Brady vs. the treatment of Darnold...which you conveniently ignored entirely, just to continue to grandstand about how badly Joe Brady is wronged.  You didn't mention Darnold once in your entire response to me asking you how you draw a distinction between Darnold/Brady scapegoating.  Oh actually I know the difference between the two: the amount of Joe Brady criticism is about 0.000000001% of the amount of Darnold criticism.  Seriously, how often is Brady even mentioned on these boards?  Once every 2 months?  Why overblow this so badly?

There....since you're clearly having a tough time answering my question, I went through your own post and switched out "Joe Brady" for "Sam Darnold".  Does your post still hold true or not?  If so, why do you spend 75% of your posts on here trashing Darnold when he is only a small part of the problem and does not deserve the focus (your words)? If not, can you explain the difference?

Apply it to Sam Darnold.   Sam Darnold isn’t the biggest issue. 

Biggest issue is a HC that traded away our draft capital for the worst starting QB in the NFL.  

Matt Rhule and Sam Darnold are still here.  Joe Brady isn’t.   So yeah, Joe Brady doesn’t get the same smoke.   The people here do.  Who also happened to be more impactful as to why we sucked on O.

      Where would the Panthers be if they sat Bryce Young last season?

      By CRA · Posted

      I mean, poster also said Young or Mahomes, it would have made no difference.  If there was way to actually test that hypothetical, I would sell every belonging I have and wager that Mahomes would indeed yield different results.  Mahomes automatically changes the D coverages.  He automatically changes the threats.  He attacks and threatens a field different vastly different.   We have seen good QBs and great QBs play behind horrific OLs in a single season....and they don't default into being the worst team in the NFL.  Frank Reich was old, stubborn and not creative enough to deal with an anomaly QB like Bryce.  The best QB in the NFL wouldn't be handicapping Frank, they would be enhancing Frank.  Starting week 1, Frank didn't even trust Bryce with basics....Frank gave him I what I feel comfortable with you being able to do offense.  Which took throws and plays off the table because Bryce couldn't do early on what a bad vet in Dalton could.  Mahomes would not yield the same results.

      All I have to say to this really, is it sounds nice and downgrades Stroud to make Young look better is more like what this take does. Look at the WR numbers the year before and then the year with Stroud. He made them better, not the other way around. That’s my opinion. I appreciate you designating that it was yours. Many state these things as facts.

      but what if.....and here me out....the pro Bryce Young stuff was coming from people under Fitterer.  You know, the people who are employed to feed him that input.  And they happen to all still be employed here.  when Rhule was fired I desperately wanted Fitterer fired.  It set things up for Fitterer to be the sacrificial lamb the next time things went poorly....every time we move on from a disaster, we are retaining a heavy % of the folks who helped bring the disaster we are "moving on from".  Everyone argued Fitterer probably could be great and it was all Rhule.  We are just repeating the same stuff to a degree IMO.   Panthers needed a clean slate post Rhule era.  Needed another post Frank era.  Things were just too bad or too dysfunctional IMO to be salvaging so much.   We keep failing to do that.
