This is pretty much my opinion too. Legit talent is optimized by good coaching but legit talent finds a way to show they belong even when surrounded by idiots.

Yep. That is the outlook I have had with QBs. People saying that no QBs could succeed behind last years OL is funny. I truely elite QB or maybe even a great QB can do a lot with a little when it concerns the OL. He just may have a shortened career because of it.

The rookie has impressed in very limited time. The coach has done everything to keep this guy under wraps. Idiot doesn't describe Rhule he's a bigger obstacle than an "idiot".

Fhulish is a category unto itself. Once he's gone you'll recognize just how destructive he was.

Good grief, man. I agree with you that Rhule is trash but you're just not being at all objective about your man crush Corral. 😂

Corral was developmental.  Best case for him was always seeing the field late if the Rhule era officially imploded. 

Corral going to IR in my eyes just highlights the pointless mess ahead of Corral.   We still have Sam and PJ on the roster.  And you would have hoped Rhule would have moved on from some of the mess regardless if they added a developmental player or not.

Cam couldn't even get the chance to outplay Rhules stupidity before he was sharing NFL snaps with Sam Darnold. That kind of stupid can ruin anything and anybody.

I love Cam but he is done.  That said, Cam saved Rhule from being fired in season IMO last year and Rhule still couldn’t do him a solid to finish out the year lol.

If we would have had an unquestionable starter, like all other teams with rookie QBs, Corral would have gotten more snaps in practice. But since we have cluster fxxk at QB, and are trying to decide who should be the starter in game 1, that is the priority, as it should be.

Corral has all the physical attributes of a long term starter, outside of being a bit injury prone, but he was deemed as not ready due to his college system. He was always a long term play. Not sure what is confusing about this.

Exactly. We're in terrible hands. Corral is just another example of how not to develop a rookie and utter Rhule Fhulishness.

I'm inclined to believe the sources that say Matt Rhules players couldn't make it in most NFL rosters. That would seem now to include Sam, Baker and PJ. It's a cluster of suck.

I have to say that I’m very optimistic about Baker, but we will find out.

Very possible.

If I remember correctly, our ramped up interest in Mayfield seemed to roughly coincide with rookie mini-camp so that would make sense.

I don't think the interest in Mayfield had anything to do with Matt Corral. It likely had everything to do with Sam Darnold.

The plan for Corral was always to sit him a year.

      2026 World Cup Thread

      By Joe Bear · Posted

      Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.

      LWOS on the FO's error--my word--on X...traits, timelines, Brazzell, & indications of improvement.

      Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly.

      Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
