The only two rookies I’ve seen play was last Saturday. Howell made plays based on instincts, not being coached up… jeez man get a grip.

Hate to break it to you, but Panthers-Commanders was not the only NFL preseason game that was played this past weekend.

Malik Willis, Desmond Ridder,  Bailey Zappe and others played significant minutes in their games and looked, at the very least, competent.

What does that have to do with acting like Jimmy G’s situation has anything to do with PJ’s? That’s what you posted and that’s what I replied to so the rest of your post is your bias shining through. Jimmy G obviously wasn’t a team guy as seen even back in NE, so there is no reason for him to even be at practice.

If you say so 🙄

Lol, really? It was obvious he wasn’t ready. I hope he comes around but he had 0 poise telling me he’s going to need some time to be NFL ready. The barrage of rookies looking much better doesn’t make you feel good. If it’s coaching then we need to get to a point where we have guys who can actually develop a QB. I have zero faith that we do.

What’s amazing is the thought that you guys know he will be fine if only he got half the reps.

And of course, that can't possibly be anybody's fault but his own 🙄

Or maybe that thing about not having guys who can develop a QB (like, for example, a college head coach who's never really had to do that) yeah...

Maybe there's some validity to that.

I can barely make it through a Panthers pre-season game, I’m certainly not going to watch others play, because I could give two shits. All of these guys are playing off instincts and will take time to develop. You’re acting like Corral comes to practice and everyone ignores him.

Every other team with a rookie quarterback managed to do that while also coaching up their rookie.

Every other team doesnt have a new offensive system/coordinator, a totally new offensive line, a new qb and a clear qb and backup qb ahead of them.  Apples and oranges.

You’d think we were screwing Joe Montana outta reps…

So your opinion is, by your own admission, uninformed...

Okay.

More like apples, oranges and excuses.

Teams do this every year. Plenty of other teams have done it before us and done it successfully.

The primary difference between us and them isn't the conditions, it's that they had competent head coaches. We don't.

    • With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.
    • Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.
    • Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
