No worries. But that is what makes it really interesting. Who will pick up the new offense quicker?

I think people ate putting to much on a rookie, still.

Maybe. But rookie QB’s (and WR’s) are much different than they were a decade ago. 

They actually have passing games at the high school level now lol. 
 

Either way, I’m eager to see how this plays out in camp. Can’t wait. Simply having competition with potential at QB is revitalizing.

Normally you sayin you dont want the rookie to start cuz the online is terrible but that isn't the case here. If heclooks bettee in camp i dont see why not, I think rhule would play a big factor in this unless he is......OverRhuled

I forgot Ben is putting in a new offense.  Sorry, it slipped my mind while making the post. 

Great point. From what i researched corral picked up different offenses at ole miss pretty quickly...

If I were them, like Cam, there would be no question. There is not a better option at QB on this roster. Period.

Sam is a good backup. That's being realistic.

Ok...

But the coaching staff has been impressed with the way he’s taken to the playbook, with about 70% of the offense thrown at him in a three-day span.

“He did great. I thought he was fantastic,” Arians said. “Just the way he processes information. To take it from the first time ever hearing it -- he was throwing it to the right guy. There were some really good, disguised coverages that he saw the first day of his career, so I was really impressed with how he processes information, and he was very accurate.”

Sounds like the Kyle I know they still love him.

They love him so much hes not even competing for QB2. He is stuck this year as QB3 if Brady doesn't get hurt. And who is this guy they won't move out of the way for him?

A guy who threw for 12 touchdowns as a rookie, and thats the most he ever got in a season. 

50 Touchdowns and 47 Interceptions for his career and completes 56% of his passes. Don't go off of what they tell you, go off of what they show you. And what they are showing you is, if he is QB3 for the second year in a row and can't beat out Gabbert, he isn't the future. 

On a 4 year deal he will likely finish year 2 as QB3. So on year 3 he is going to compete for the starting job and go from 3 to 1? Or will he compete with somebody else for QB2? Its not a great look.

This is Darnolds last make or break chance with this team. A revamped Oline and the three running backs ready to go, he has to succeed or it's over. Corral will be breathing down his neck all season.

Corral to DJ Moore is looking like Jake/Smitty again.

Madden says play Matt Corral...

 

[KatsAzz]

The Panthers should be patient with Matt Corral and let him develop at a pace that suits his learning curve.

They have him for five years on fairly cheap contracts so there is no need to rush him along and impede what appears on the surface to be a promising career.

 These are football players. It's 2022, no coddling or breeding weakness necessary.

The thing football players want to do most is play football.

Time to turn the page on the "rebuild".
