PJ is MILES ahead of Corral and it showed. People really need to drop the delusions with MC. Hating on PJ is popular around here, but the guy has literally proven he can win games as a backup. But no,  “muh Corral is getting reps stolen from him”

 

Yeah about that. I'm fine with PJ being here as a backup...if Darnold is gone.

 

The point is you drafted Corral with the intention of him learning. He won't learn poo being behind 3 QBs (2 of which wouldn't be thought to start on any other roster in the league).

So if we're keeping PJ, adios Sam. If we're keeping Sam, adios PJ. As it stands, I'd rather have Sam as I think he's the better of the 2 at his best. PJ at his best is a good backup. Sam at his best is a competent starter. This has been shown in actual games last season. It's like saying Derek Anderson could have started when he got us wins. No. He just played backup well. Wasn't risky, protected the ball, did enough to not lose. Same as PJ.

Rhule would cut Baker before he cut Walker.

He is going to have to cut PJ or Darnold. He can’t keep 4 QBs on the roster. That’s just a waste of a roster spot and stupid. Damn it that’s exactly what he is going to do isn’t it???

It’s not exactly like saying DA should have started. I don’t want PJ to potentially be a starter here. It’s just a tricky situation that Rhule put himself in. I’m pushing back against people that believe Corral can be a savior for the franchise. It’s Jimmy Clausen all over again

Maybe but we'd be dumb to keep 4 QBs longer than another week. Darnold or PJ gotta go. Corral has through next off-season to show he's coming along and can take the show over from Baker or he can be gone too.

Still think we are going to keep 4. PJ as a “special teams spot” in hopes that we can move darnold for something once injuries start happening to QB’s.

People sure are upset that Matt Corral looks exactly like the 3rd round draft pick that he is lol. I would honestly rather have PJ than him. 

I thought he looked decent compared to those around him.  He is a rookie and most of the guys he was playing with won't be on the Panthers roster.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Nobody is giving up a 4th rounder for a backup QB And anyone who needs a starter badly enough to where Bryce would then be their starter, is such a bad team that they're not giving up a pick likely to be about pick 105ish overall, instead of just dealing with a bad QB situation for a season and then drafting one in a loaded QB draft next year. I'm looking through all the teams right now and can't think of a single one that would be willing to part with anything better than a 6th rounder. Barring injuries (and excluding the Panthers), there look to be 10 teams who don't know with 100% certainty who their starting QB will be in 2027... Dolphins, Jets, Browns, Steelers, Vikings, Colts, Saints, Falcons, Cardinals, and Rams. Of those 10...  The Rams know it will be Stafford or Simpson.  The Saints more than likely will be sticking with Shough unless he takes a huge step backwards.  So neither are giving up any draft picks for Bryce right now, just wouldn't make sense for either. Down to 8 Given their current QB situation of having multiple QBs they already need to evaluate between this year, the Browns (Shedeur/Watson), Vikings (Kyler/JJ), Colts (Jones/Richardson/Leonard), and Falcons (Penix/Tua), wouldn't be giving up a 4th (or maybe any pick) to bring in another QB to muddy the waters even more. Down to 4 Dolphins just signed Willis and wouldn't want to bring in another small Alabama QB who has struggled after just dumping Tua instead of just rolling with Ewers as the backup.   That then leaves the Steelers, Cardinals, and Jets left as it's clear none of them have any idea who their 2027 could be as of right now.  But the Steelers would for sure rather just see what one of the 2 QB's they drafted in the last 2 drafts could become than give up a mid round pick for Bryce.  Same goes for the Cardinals in taking Beck this past weekend. The Jets would be the most likely team to even consider taking him on, but I think it seems very apparent right now given them rolling with Geno and now talk of bringing in Wilson to be his backup, they're punting on QB this year to draft someone next year, so why give up even a mid round pick for Bryce?

      Where panthers draft ranked against Big Boards in 2023

      Honestly I am not sure Pickett couldn’t step in for him. But I don’t see a clear easy upgrade and we are not KC with Alex Smith we are a team that hadn’t done poo for almost ten years and just made the playoffs. And looked good in the game. That stadium atmosphere on that day…. you know Tepper ate that poo up. Not one drink has been thrown in a while.  You had better make sure if you replaced him after that that you had a sure fire upgrade.

      Makes sense. If Bryce is ass this year, we are probably drafting our new QB next draft and sitting him behind Bryce for a year
