Russell would likely have been successful anywhere he was given a chance to start but he wouldn't be a Super Bowl champion without those other elements. 

Even the greatest of QB's isn't gonna drag a team to but so much success. Look at Brady in Tampa. He plopped into a ready-made team to get his last title. That team was stacked with talent. Stafford and the Rams.

This roster is pretty thin on talent and VERY thin on experience. So the ceiling is naturally going to be very low.


Yeah, we are not a QB away. 
 

At this pace, it will take rule 5 years just to get an 9-8 team. If he’s lucky.

Yeah, a lot of things have to go our way for this turnaround, even with competent FO and HC moves.

I don't think most fans appreciated how bad our roster was after the 2019 purge. Truthfully, it's debatable how much it has improved since then. We really need these 2020-2022 guys to be good. Not just the first round guys. We need some of these other picks to pan out, as well. Otherwise this will be a very, very bad team.

QB play wasn’t the worst problem the last two years. Joe Brady wasn’t ready for prime time. We had a terrible O Line and CMC didn’t even play half a year between both combined. The QBs we fielded weren’t world beaters but they for damn sure weren’t set up for success.

Teddy largely was.  He just refused to make the throws he needed to.  O still has problems but Teddy not pulling the trigger on plays that existed was the primary problem that year on O.  

2020 and 2021 IMO can't be lumped as the same messes/problems.

hope to split w/ Atl and NO.  That gives you 2 wins. 

Detriot.  That gives you 3 wins. 

Then hope you pull 3 wins of these 4 - NY, Sea, AZ, Pitt.  That gives you 6. 

But that's why the Vegas line is so good.  Because of that last group of 4 teams.  By taking the 6 wins you are betting you win most of the coin flip/winnable games. 

Everyone else is just flat out better than us pending injuries don't alter who they are.   And that assumes Watson starts in Clev week 1. 

but yeah the opening 8 games are crucial for Matt Rhule and there isn't a lot of room for error on the couple winnable games there. 

We will inexplicably beat AZ. Weird things happen when we play them. Sea, NYG, and Pitt are all up in the air but none of those QBs scare you. All those teams are mentally counting our game as a W.

I don't think six wins will be enough to save Rhule's job.

Not directly related, but a little perspective...

 

Super Bowl victories are so hard to come by.  That's why the NE dynasty was so impressive.  I think Tomlin is the only active head coach with more than one Super Bowl victory (as head coach) outside of Bill.

A lot of IF’s have to become positives for us to be competitive. Pretty sure Sam isn’t going to lead us anywhere and Matt is still raw. With decent play at QB and our D playing like it’s capable of we could be good.

 

Thankfully, we are still very young as a team. So we do have some time to find that QB. If it is not Corral, then swing away next year.

 

IMO, as soon as Matt can master the playbook. He starts. Then let the chips fall where they may.

    • I like what Freeling brings to the table all around. If he is willing to put in the work he has an opportunity to be one of the better Tackles in the league down the line. Hunter Brazzell and Hecht are all premium additions but development from our staff are the key to unlocking them. Hopefully Lee and Wheatley will provide much needed additional depth to our secondary. Beyond that it's important not to get too caught up in draft grades. Many drafts over the years that turned out to be really good were not fawned over with praise. While some that were ended up being historical duds. Panthers fans ought to know this as well as anyone. In conclusion...
    • Maybe a bit of a homer take but I can't give us a grade lower than A.   Freeling was arguably the best LT prospect in the draft.  His athletic ability is off the chart and at 6'7" that can move.  It was a no brainer pick.   Hunter's key word is Violence. Putting him next to Brown should scare an offensive coordinator. These two give Scourton and Phillips plenty of chances to get one on one opportunities. Brazzell, another tall receiver with sprinter speed.  Our WR room is filled with tall talented WR.  Brazzell is going to give us a WR that can take to roof off the defense.  Basically Jimmy Horn with size. W. Lee III has a nickname of the Blanket. (heard this on the Beleav podcast with J. Stewart)  What a great name.  A great value in the 5th round. Hecht A strong, fast and extremely smart center. Many had him listed as the best center in the draft.  He's most likely a starter sooner than later. Wheatley A good safety in round 5.  Someone who could see playing time.   Kuwatch  I love this pick.  At minimum he will be a key piece on special teams and with some good coaching he'll see some packages where he'll play.  His down piece is he doesn't stay up in the running game.  Good coaching will fix this.  He reminds me a bit of A.J. Klein.   All these picks were great value.  I believe everyone of them were graded higher than the pick we took them.   Dan Morgan is IMO doing a great job turning this team into a good team with great depth.
