We aren't keeping Darnold past this season.  Corral has the potential to get better as he gets more exposure/playing time.  If it's close you play the one with the potential to get better and be part of our future.  

Sam Darnold could have 3900 yds 37 pass tds and only 6 interceptions this year.

Speaking of quarterback...

 

So…Rappaport said Corral was open about it. I’ve seen people (including that Twitter thread) say Matt chose to abstain from alcohol during football season (which is discipline).

…sounds like the truth got twisted like those childhood phone games where the end message is completely different than the initial one.

 

It is hilarious (and not surprising) if something like discipline got twisted into assuming he had an alcohol issue.

Yeah he could also have 2000 receiving yards but it’s just very unlikely. The people that got a close look at him (our staff) were adamant about bringing in some “competition” for a reason. They have given up on him.

Love this from the Observer;

“The Ben McAdoo effect 

It’s impossible not to notice new offensive coordinator Ben McAdoo at Panthers practice. His enthralling presence has nothing to do with his new hairstyle or taller-in-person statue. Rather, the 44-year-old former Giants head coach simply commands his offense. He’s respectfully loud, effectively holding players’ attention when speaking. He wastes no time. Each drill and every play has a clearly defined purpose. 

It’s only Day 1 of rookie minicamp, but the Panthers offense is already marinating in his influence.”


Do we have a real OC? Sure feels like it. I know it’s day one, but feels like we are getting some good pieces in place.

It was in one of the Ole Miss youtube vids. He basically said he partied like all the other freshman and sophomores did his first two years, and realized he needed to get his poo together if he was gonna actually have a chance at being the starter and getting drafted. He got his poo together, started and got drafted. Big fuging deal. Nice of David Newton to pull a TMZ on the guys first day at rookie camp.

It kind of sounds like Rhule should have hired people with some actual NFL experience instead of a college passing game coordinator that was all hype! Rhule was too smart for his own good and trusted his process too much.

I think you are on to something. He thought he was going to be one of the smartest coaches in the league right away and could plug in whoever at OC/DC etc.  He seems to have gotten humbled a little with hiring some experienced staff and seemed to kind of let Fitt handle the draft. Maybe can can learn/grow into a decent coach. We shall see…

You blame it on Rhule, I blame it on Tepper.

He gave a laughably insane contract to a college coach with no experience...didn't have a strong GM in place, and gave said coach all of the power in the organization.

What did Tepper expect was going to happen?

      XL makes a list of sophomore breakout candidates

      By Captain Morgan · Posted

      Former league executive and current NFL.com analyst Marc Ross recently named his top second-year breakout candidates for the upcoming campaign. Ross includes Legette, who may be helped out by his team's latest first-round selection. He writes: Legette had a slow start to his NFL career, catching 49 passes for 497 yards and four touchdowns last season. Some of the struggles can be tied to his own growing pains -- he had eight drops on 81 targets, according to Pro Football Focus -- but he had also had to navigate the quarterback shuffle between Bryce Young and Andy Dalton early in Dave Canales' first season leading the Panthers. Canales recently said he believes Carolina has a DK Metcalf-like talent in Legette, who had foot surgery this offseason but was cleared to resume work in early April, and that having a full offseason alongside Young, who took a significant step forward in 2024, could lead to a breakout result in 2025. I anticipate it will also help that Carolina invested another first-round pick in a wide receiver, Arizona's Tetairoa McMillan, to complement Legette in the pass game. McMillan's presence, however, could take some pressure off Legette—who may be able to roam around in a more natural playmaking role. With the 6-foot-4 All-American likely to take on the bulk of the volume from Young, Legette should have some cleaner shots to break out downfield and in the box score.     https://pantherswire.usatoday.com/story/sports/nfl/panthers/2025/05/06/panthers-wr-xaiver-legette-top-breakout-candidates-2025/83475176007/?taid=681a4610ede05d000149b376&utm_campaign=trueanthem&utm_medium=trueanthem&utm_source=twitter

      How would you feel if Bryce did this in 2025

      By CRA · Posted

      my understanding is a big time throw, could be a 5-10 yard slant to Adam Thielen given AT isn't going to separate.

      It's a subjective stat that PFF made up. https://www.pff.com/news/pro-pff-qb-grading-most-effective-tool-there-is
