He needs reps to build timing with the receivers. They take that away in the name of "QB Competition". You either give the job to Baker or Sam and go from there because if it's Bakers job he needs as many reps with the ones as he can get.

Sam on the other hand is a great 7 on 7 player, it's when the pads come on that he has issues.

He does need reps but a few days alternating in camp won't ruin his potential chemistry with receivers. He's also likely to throw to several non first teamers throughout the season.  I get what you're saying but I think Baker could use the competition (I think it can bring out the best in these guys), and he's enough of a vet I don't think it's gonna hurt his development.

Let's see how Rhule handles this longer term. I just hope it doesn't turn into another moment of Rhule Strategy where he drags out a decision to "keep em guessing" in the name of "competitive advantage".

Trask is actually a tiny bit scary.  He's a second round pick who would likely have been a first round pick this year.  He is getting to sit behind Tom Brady and learn with Bruce Arians at the helm.  No idea if he'll work out, but he has the physical tools.

We'll know a lot more after preseason this year.  Bucs have four QB's on the roster, no way they will carry all four.

Trask isnt going to make it in the NFL. The problem with Trask is that he doesnt have the tools. He can't make the sideline throws and doesnt have enough velocity on his throws to carry down the field. He is 3rd on the Bucs depth chart behind Gabbert for a reason. 

Trask would not have been a first round pick this year. His throwing session last year was okay and the only reason he was taken in the 2nd by the Bucs is bc they needed a post Brady plan. You put him against this year's QBs he would have been a 3rd round QB. He just doesnt have the arm talent that Willis, Corral, and crew have. He is a poor man's Pickett, and that isnt saying much.

Let's not forget that Trask had elite playmakers around him while he was at Florida. That really helped pump his number.

Mayfield wearing shorts today but still in long sleeves.

Not walking out with Darnold today so things were a little less awkward.

 

I wonder what the fans are hoping is going to happen after yelling "Baker" over and over and over again.... whats the goal?

Can the Matt Corral love fest from that one dude stay away today? We get it. You think he's God's gift to Earth. However, since I've been a Panthers fan, I've seen one QB workout who was drafted and that was Cam Newton. Otherwise it's been Collins, Weinke, Clausen, etc.

He could be a good player and he could not but constantly drooling on the practice day thread isn't going go make that happen.

Sometimes yelling at the dudes works.
 

My favorite training camp experience was Brandon Hogan coming to sign my hat after I told him to “come over here” chatting it up with him and then him telling the little kids “damn I can’t sign everybody” before walking off. He was cool as fug, hate that due to injury he never got a real shot in the league.

Sometimes it doesn’t, I’ve seen Steve Smith curse people out for doing the same thing.

    • Then don't tune in. It's really not a hard concept to understand, if your making your decision based on your own personal needs/feelings as opposed to what is best for the future of the franchise, then it's a you problem, not a Panthers problem. When the season is already lost, every fan should be rooting for the same thing.  The team plays hard until the final whistle of the season and keeps improving as a team and individually, but in the end, we still come up short and lose games, and preferably because the other team beat us, not because we screwed up and found a way to lose due to our own fault. Look at it this way... If we are up 1 or 2 points with 3 seconds left in the game and the other team is lining up for a FG.  Beyond the joy of victory or the disappointment of defeat, what impact does the other team making or missing the FG have on our team the following season? ABSOLUTELY NOTHING Except where we draft and what teams we play due to our finish in the division. The players and coaches on the team would have the exact same level of improvement and learnings about themselves individually and as a team whether the FG is made or missed.  The ONLY difference in the end is the record in the standings and if the win or loss number changes. If you want to argue if making the playoffs to lose in the first round or just missing them is better or worse, that's totally fair and I can at least understand the other side of it.  But in what is already a lost season, if you're not hoping your team plays well but ends up losing, then you're cutting off your nose to spite your face.  You're hoping for a moment of happiness at the detriment of the franchise's future, and in turn, you're basically then happy for a moment to only set yourself up for future further disappointment.
    • If we’re eliminated I want the wins more.   The season is already a disappointment and if I’m not pulling for wins why bother to tune in?
    • Two things terribly wrong with this post. First is that not one time has myself or anyone else agreeing with me said that the team themselves should think that way or try and lose for positioning.  Never once have I suggested the team should purposefully lose games, ever.  I honestly can't understand why people keep saying this in posts, not one fan has ever said the players should or would purposefully try to lose. And second, is yes, that has happened and it's happened very recently.  The 2020 Bengals were 4-11-1 and then were playing in the SB the very next season.   And while it might have been 2 years later and they didn't quite get to the SB, the 2021 Lions were 3-13-1 and then the 2023 Lions were up 24-7 at halftime of the NFC Championship game. The season between those two? They finished 9-8 and only just missed the playoffs. Which is why I keep trying to compare us to the Lions in where we are at in our re-build.  Throw out Bryce's rookie year with the Reich staff who just didn't work out and he looked god awful.   This past season when we were 5-12 in Canales' 1st season is that 2021 season for the Lions and their 1st season under Campbell.  This year is their 2022 where they grew a ton and Campbell's culture building was clear, where I'm saying we'd likely be better off in the long run if we go 8-9 or 9-8 and just miss out on the playoffs (which is still a significant improvement from last year).  Then our 2026 is their 2024 when we have a chance to be a real contender after adding a few more pieces and our key players having another year of experience under their belts.
