No.  He's not.  Solid backups don't have turnover problems.  Solid backups are the ones who don't lose games for you.  Maybe they don't win them, but they don't lose them.  Derek Anderson was a good backup QB.  TB5 was a good backup QB.  

Sam is a bad QB.  Period.  Backup or starter, bad.  He seems like a good dude.  Both can be true statements.

You remember that one game where Ron benched Cam, and Anderson threw a pick 6 on like the first play of the game or some poo?  Yeah, that was awesome...

I remember it vividly. It was a check down to Tolbert and not a bad pass at all. Tolbert completely whiffed trying to catch it and popped it up in the air himself for the DB to easily grab. Completely absurd and fitting for the way that season was going and Ron is an idiot for benching Cam for 1 play over a fuging tie, but DA was definitely a solid backup for most of his time here. By the time that season rolled around he was pretty old and not as good but he was as good of a backup as you can get from like 2011-2015. We just fortunately didn't need him that much since Cam was such an iron man initially. DA's only 2 starts in that stretch were in 2014, a fluke preseason injury to Cam that held him out week 1 and then his car crash later in the season. DA played well and got us both wins. Yes we had a losing record that year but he ultimately helped us make the playoffs and we won a playoff game...

Forget Mayfield.  What's the skinny on Corral?

From all accounts he needs a year or a few months at the least. He has the tools, he seems to need help learning the playbook and the pro game and that just takes time. Basically the answer lies in his wonderlic score. Again, he'll be fine because a low wonderlic doesn't spell disaster, he just needs time.

Corral said he took the test wrong (put an answer for every question vs leaving Qs blank) so who knows what his actual score is.

It’s okay to just not say anything, or say you don’t know. 
 

But instead, you write poo like this.

...just saying...Rhule is such an egotistical maniac that he still has Darnold out there wasting valuable time & resources still practicing with the 1's oh my my what a complete dunce...just my 2

Agree

i will always hope the team does well. 

I will never be a fan of Rhule   He has every quality I dislike in a person. That said, hopefully the NFL coaches around him help make this season viable 

as for Tepper, I see he managed to show up for a practice yesterday, barely acknowledging the fans there.  My, what a change from his first two years 

just think, Watson could be in the Panthers sideline had Tepper had his way   Class, isn’t Tepper’s string suit 

Whether we care for them or not doesn’t matter.  In the nfl, winning is all that matters

      How would you feel if Bryce did this in 2025

      By Tr3ach · Posted

      I'm not a Bryce hater and I would 100% move on.  Especially looking at how the upcoming qb draft looks on paper.  Hopefully he continues to improve but if in 3 seasons you're still chasing average season numbers then he's not going to be the guy.  You've just got to keep taking swings until you hit.  Average qbs without any elite physical traits cant get it done anymore.  So this year Hopefully he continues to develop and is above average statistically.

      An honest look at Bryce Young

      By panthers55 · Posted

      Meltdowns???? He was pulled by Canales because he wasn't executing the game plan after 2 games into the season so he could watch Dalton execute the offense and show Bryce the windows available in the NFL, how to push the ball down the field and how to step up and move around when blitzed. When Young came back 5 games later he clearly watched and improved. Enough he was named the future starter. He doesn't have a history of  meltdowns nor is there any reason to assume he will have one. From what I have read he is mentally strong and emotional stable. He may have bad games down the road, everyone does. But this is all a learning experience for him and so far he seems to be making progress. I can understand being hesitant on anything Panthers, but Young has surprisingly been able to gain his confidence after a disastrous start. You aren't alone in being cautious but I think he is the future. I thought he was too small and too short to succeed in the NFL. Honestly I was pleasantly surprised last year and am optimistic about the offense for the first time since Wilks and Dalton were decent.

      D. Morgan on T-Mac: “I made the decision pretty early [January]

      By Jon Snow · Posted

      The Rams wanted to trade up for Williams who they ended up within the end. They even told him that when they called him to let him know he is the pick. The other teams are only an assumption. Like the Cowboys, who took a guard. The truth is the team wanted to trade down first and foremost but couldn't get an offer the were happy with. They took McMillan because they felt he was bpa at 8 plain and simple.
