Its because they need to evaluate the entire offense,  not just the qb.  The offense as a whole runs much smoother with PJ back there.  As we've seen.  I understand that Corral is #4 on the depth chart but #1 in our hearts,  but still.   This isnt just about Corral right now.  

Some can’t understand this.

True, he got cut but then made PS and eventually the actual roster that season. 

LOL I cheated and just looked if they were on the roster that year.  Guess that's why I missed that one.   He showed up on the roster and I missed him. 

So that is 2 3rd rounders that got cut. 

He must of looked really bad.  He made it through waivers.  Cardinals picked up the guy in 1996.

Price was the one whose draft profile said "looks like the Pillsbury Dough Boy, plays like an All American".

We got the first half of that sentence but not the second 😕

but looking at that was depressing, our 3rd round picks post Trai Truner in 2014.  Maybe Tremble can break that streak.  It's been pretty much 1 or 2 seasons and disappear.

I don't think I'd say PJ is better than Sam, personally, but I don't think there is that much of a difference. The second half of your statement is my thought process as well. Get Sam off the team, Baker is the clear #1 with nobody looking over his shoulder. I don't want a 2 QB thing going on like with Cam and Sam because they couldn't decide who would stink it up less.

My understanding is Rhule was notorious for doing that in college.  Last thing we need is changing QBs every other week.

As I've stated repeatedly, I think PJ is actually the second best QB on this roster currently.  I like PJ.  But I just don't understand the logic behind this. Whether you are like me and think we should cut Darnold and PJ should be the backup, or if you think PJ is the odd man out at the final cuts, it doesn't make sense in either scenario.  

Don't get me wrong, Matt looked like a deer in headlights in game one, and a really scared one at that.  He looked overwhelmed.  But, I've made it a point to emphasize, that's partly a product of not getting reps in practice/preseason games, and being surrounded by mostly roster filler in the 4th quarter of a preseason game.  So, despite how bad he looked, I would like to see him with some NFL level talent around him for an extended amount of time.  Even if he gets the 2nd half tonight, it's still gonna be with mostly roster fodder and future cuts.  And this brings us back to why the reps they're wasting on Darnold are so important.

So maybe McAdoo was needing to get one final look at Darnold to confirm he is what we all know.  I could see him getting cut and PJ being the backup until Corral is ready.  Not saying I agree with it, but I am trying to follow the logic...

I think it's more to get a look at PJ. Darnold has had enough time against the Patriots 1's and 2's at joint practices this week.  PJ has not.

      Where would the Panthers be if they sat Bryce Young last season?

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      I saw an interesting point the other day about our type of situation.  It could have been wise to hold him off for 1-2 weeks, but that would not have anything to do with Bryce and you could easily communicate that from a PR standpoint.   Why? Well, we just brought an entirely new staff into town, new offense for the returning OL, and had wholesale turnover elsewhere.  So just run Dalton out there the first game or so to see how things are shaking out.  Dry run to make sure we won't kill the kid.  We weren't eyeing the SB.  Get a sense of the line, the receivers, the playbook.  It gives you a glimpse of what Bryce would be stepping into and a good barometer on where things stood sans him.  I suppose we sort of did that with Dalton, but that was a reactive switch and like @Ricky Spanish mentioned, it was against an injured SEA defense where we threw a ridiculous amount.  Who knows, maybe we could have at least won a game or two more that way.  You can adjustments prior to Bryce stepping in, better tee it up for him, and maybe we end up winning game 1 or 2. Last year was such a sh*tshow.  One of the worst seasons I've ever experienced in any sport for any team.  Absolutely nothing made sense together.  Happy we cut the cord early, but should have never hired that crew in the first place.

      Johnson is gonna want $20M+ next year. That's why they should have drafted Ladd.

      It's like folk didn't even watch the game. Dalton took a beating, and barely avoided a lot more violent hits. No 35 years old QB is going to survive a season like that. Imagine him against Dallas or Houston or Indy or Detroit or New Orleans twice! He played better than Bryce in that 1 game, but he wouldn't have lasted half the season.
