If I was making the decision? 50% -75% based as long as he doesn't look completely lost during training camp and the preseason.

If Matt Rhule is making the decision? Less than 25% regardless of how he looks during training camp and the preseason.

Unless he 100% beyond a shadow of a doubt proves he's the man for the job in training camp, then Sam should be starting week 1. Rookie QBs tend to not do so hot when immediately thrown to the wolves.

I'm interested in seeing a healthy Sam behind a good line in preseason. If he succeeds, he'll probably start week 1. Letting Corral ease into it is best for everyone, if Sam can play well enough to be a space holder.

Edit: just to be clear, this response was added for levity. I'm not a PJ Walker guy. Corral should be starting as soon as possible.

If the "the rookie wall" and "benefitting from a year in an NFL weightroom" sentiments are legit, an ideal scenario might be getting to the 9 game mark, then starting Corral and going on a possible run if we're above .500 at that point. The qualifying variables being, 1.) How Sam looks 2.) Does McAdoo think Corral is ready

I voted 50-75%.  I truly believe he is going to really shine in preseason.  That said Sam is going to have to lose the job.  He's the #1 QB going into camp.  If he settles in behind our new offensive line he could hold off Matt.

I love Corral's fire.  He seems to have more of a fire to him than Sam.  Players seem to gravitate to him.  He's a good leader and that may be his trump card.

    • Right but I'm not talking about other teams I'm talking about the Carolina Panthers who are heading into 8 consecutive years of losing seasons. We can argue about stats advanced metrics and expectations until we're blue in the face. Winning when the playoffs are on the line is a very key goal for any starting QB in the NFL. And not for nothing but let's keep it real here. We hung our hats on the Packers game in his rookie season after weeks of either poor or mediocre QB play. And now we're doing the same with his sophomore season albeit with a little larger sample size. But still picking and choosing what to judge just leads to an echo chamber on either side of the debate. We should all be able to meet at a consensus that competing passing the eye test and winning some games convincingly early in the season is realistically the goal for our #1 pick heading into year 3.
    • Y'all forgetting about Maz Mwansa.   He would be the fifth DE IF the cut Barno and DJ Johnson.  He would not cost us a roster spot--and that is the key. "Carolina’s pass rush is being reshaped under new outside linebackers coach AC Carter, and recent addition Patrick Jones II. While Mwansa won’t count against the active roster thanks to the IPP slot, his upside is significant. He’s been likened physically to Eagles pass rusher Nolan Smith Jr. and already shows flashes of edge-bending potential. Panthers Director of Player Personnel Cole Spencer summed it up: “Anytime you get a raw ball of clay like that, and the league affords a roster spot, it’s pretty cool.”
