Normally I'd say about 0 but Sam is terrible and Fitts has previous experience with his team throwing a 3rd round rookie right to the wolves so I'm saying 50% (voted 50-75). Also, less risk starting a rookie QB if we have a dominant OL and some solid weapons, which it's looking like we will. Dak is another example.

 

Won't really know anything until camp though, he could look horrible and not ready at all once the pads come on. Who knows.

Ok, so Fhule should decide. We got Icky but we didn't even really get to see what Brady Christensen had to offer until way late and Rhule admittedly said that may have a mistake.

Trusting Rhule to evaluate QB readiness is lol. Remember he kept Sam from playing in the preseason, coddling the dude. The NFL has long figured Sam out and will put him in situations they know he can't handle.

Time to move on from past mistakes and embrace the future by commiting to your new franchise QB. THAT will show Corral that you are serious about reaching his potential.

All this coddling guys want to do thinking they're saving Matt from football is ridiculous. He'll learn more, get up to speed, getting reps not watching Sam.

Brees, Brady, Rodgers, Mahomes

It appears that the Panthers intend to run more this season. 

If true, that would bode well for Sam Darnold.  If Sam makes any progress with in-game decisions he could produce another mini win streak (like last season).  Matt Rhule and Scott Fitterer would likely favor this outcome, as it would provide an "We were right all along" narrative for their trade w/the Jets. 

With this in mind, chances are Rhule and company are going to give Sam Darnold every opportunity to succeed early this season. 

However, if Matt Corral is all that and a bag of chips (clearly heads and shoulders above Darnold) well, all bets are off. 

TL/DR:  Everybody loves a winner!

Don’t forget Marshall led or was right there with the leader in preseason receiving yardage and well, it didn’t translate well. 

Oddly, Sam Darnold also didn’t really play in the preseason 

Robbie Anderson earned 85% of offensive snaps in the regular season.  TMJ 36%

I don’t think issue was TMJ and his gait

Rule is unpredictable. There's no telling. I mean it doesn't really matter if Corral looks or is better, Rule is going to role with whoever he's comfortable with. 

Especially since he's been pretty much lost the majority of his control so far this offseason. His narcissism is like a ticking time bomb waiting for him to start micromanaging again.

Sam simply completing a pass would be considered "progress" at this point.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By Tepper's Chest Hair · Posted

      Sometimes its fun to read the threads/posts.  The panthers could literally hire a groundskeeper and we'd have a thread "improving the field for no other reason to prop up Bryce Young".  Apparently no move is ever done to actually make the team better.  All a conspiracy to just focus on Bryce Young. Or suddenly daydreaming and reminiscing about Sam Darnold when he was hated more than Bryce Young.  Its really fun to do a message board search about Darnold during that time period.   Or thinking there is just a tree that grows QB, and you can just easily go up and pluck one.

      Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying.

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
