Panthers apparently ARE looking to off load Darnold...or maybe not. Tweet removed and report denied.

Probably explains the reps he’s getting in camp, trying to get someone to bite.

Call it dumb all you want but at least they are trying.

We were (possibly Seattle?) the only ones to bite on Baker's 5th year option and yet some team out there is going to pick up Sam's?  LOl!

The one that Cleveland is gonna pay the majority of? Anyway if we have to eat some of the hit like Cleveland it gets us a pick and a roster spot so I’m hoping that something comes our way.

Wasting valuable reps and time the 1st team offense needs to gel together so we can showcase the worst starting QB of the last several years who has zero future with this team 🥴

Ellis made a good point on that.

No amount of decent to good training camp reps is gonna be enough to erase four years of game tape from the minds of opposing GMs.

"Showcasing" Darnold is basically useless.

That is some really strong hope there my friend.  I think you are looking at it form the wrong point of view though.  The PANTHERS were not willing to take on more than $5M of Baker's salary and the Browns were not eating over $10M.  That was the major sticking point.  Baker had to eat $3.5M himself (could be made up in incentives) to make the trade work. 

So if we weren't willing to take on more than $5M to acquire Baker, what makes you think we are going to eat ANY of Darnold's contract just to be rid of him.  Also, anything higher than a 6th is a pipe dream.

It's been plainly obvious since we made the deal for awhile that we have moved on from Darnold. The comments coming from the organization as soon as the season ended screamed it. The deal for Mayfield cemented it. This "competition" is and has been a farce. The splitting of reps is idiotic and self defeating. We aren't fooling anyone, especially if we're openly shopping the guy. 

Once again, we're displaying for all to see that this organization is fuging amateur hour.

It’s rumored that the Alouettes are willing to part with two barrels at maple syrup and a Dudley Do Right Fathead.

 

you heard it here first…

A Canadian would never part with their maple syrup.  These rumors have to be fake.  Has Garry Cobb confirmed it yet?

So we are fuging up getting baker to speed and corrals development so we can get a 6th or 7th round draft pick.   Rhule is playing 3d chess fellas

Taking reps with the twos isn't hurting Baker.  The two's play.  He needs to develop chemistry with them as well. 

The person being hurt here is Corral who isn't getting as many reps because while we are trying to find a home for Sam, we have 4 QB's. 

We are doing the same thing we did with Teddy, trying to offload the previous QB, just there isn't much of market for Sam.

And paying his salary in full. If the Panthers were smart they'd eat Darnold's salary like the Browns did.

At any rate, it explains PJ Walker still getting reps.

The ONLY value that Darnold has right now is if his presence can make Baker better (competition).  I am concerned that Corral is standing around while we sugar coat a dog turd with reps, but that is not my decision. 

I get the feeling that Corral will win the hearts of fans during the preseason.

    • Idk man, I think it’s necessary.  There’s people working 9-5s everyday that get told poo about what they aren’t and what they’re not capable of and they’re working for scraps.  These guys are making millions.  People are watching and invested because their team and fandom is a part of their identity and a big source of pride.  When someone like Bryce comes in and is given chance after chance after chance after proving he is not worthy of the position he’s being gifted, and he continues to be the biggest reason above any that we are losing, yeah…  I think it’s fair to call a spade a spade.  Am I saying Bryce the person is trash?  Bryce the person is a piece of poo?  Absolutely not.     I came up in an era, especially in basketball, where if you were fuging up people heckled the poo out of you.  I played in rec leagues as a teen where the fuging parents were calling kids trash and yelling poo like “TURNOVER!!!  TURNOVER!!!”  “CANT DRIBBLE!”  “CANT SHOOT!”  And that’s adults screaming that poo to kids like we were in the fuging Rucker lol.🤣🤣🤣  I went on to play basketball at a collegiate level and with professional players in different settings.  What those experiences as a kid taught me was to see if there is any merit to what people are saying, and if there is, then work my ass off til they can’t say that anymore.  Come back better, tougher, harder.  And I did.  If kids can figure that poo out, an adult calling another adult who is bad at his job while making millions and millions of dollars will be just fine.  
    • I have tried to like this team, lord knows I have tried. BY9 is a nice young man, if I had a daughter he can take her to prom, but he ain't QB1 and he's not Cam or Delhomme Chuba is a average RB, he isn't Stephen Davis, he isn't J-Stew McMillan has the makings of a good WR, but he isn't 89/Moose D. Brown is a great player, but if the game was on the line I want Kris Jenkins       I miss this brand of football, even in the bad Jake games the games were entertaining It has been nearly 8 years now of watching numb football
    • I'm not so sure. Something about the whole Frank/Bryce situation seemed off from day 1. Bryce didn't fit Frank's QB mold as well as Stroud, then he basically gives up when Bryce is named starter in preseason but gets virtually no reps in games. Then he looks completely unprepared and Dalton steps in in Seattle, has a decent game under immense pressure, and it's right back to Bryce. All his mechanics are terrible and he's having the worst rookie season ever and Frank doesn't bench him?  You dont have to be a conspiracy theorist to know Bryce wasn't ready to be a day 1 starter. Everything with Bryce, then coaches, and the FO seemed forced.
