Corral to IR is a good thing….

That was probably going to happen anyway if he didn't get injured..

The only scenario where we wouldn’t draft a QB would be one where Baker lights it up and gets an extension. If Baker struggles we probably have a bad record and Rhule could be fired. New coach drafts his guy and Corral competes with the rookie (probably won’t beat out a first round pick IMO).

Our FO gave him a first round grade. Don't gloss over that fact.

He'll get his chance next year with our new coach, but that's because he was a 3rd rounder, not because of whatever grade he had. 

It wasn't like he showed anything at all this preseason - which probably was on Rhule's shitty player development.

Live reps help more than sitting back and watching.


This injury might be a career changer for Corral, If we do suck that means Rhule is fired Baker and Sam are gone and we end up picking a QB next year. if we end up with a good record there’s not a chance in hell they let go of Baker for Corral coming off an injury. It’s a bad situation for Corral all around

They were talking out their ass to make Corral feel better.  He is not a 1st round talent and you know it. I like him as well as the rest of you guys but I know he's not and so does everyone else. 

I had hope just like everyone else that he might defy the odds and make an impact here but he is just not an impact player.  He may become one and would have had a better shot had he not gotten hurt.  This injury means he has lost any shot at being the first in line as backup much less starter.

No new coach is taking the job without assurances that they can pick a new qb in the first.   Nobody is taking the job thinking they have to win with corral

This. No one is tying a new coach to a 3rd rounder coming off of an entire season on IR. If Rhule is retained, it probably means Mayfield earned an extension. If Rhule gets fired the new staff is going to want a shiny new QB of their own.

Of course they're going to draft a new QB. He'll still get a chance in camp I bet.

    • Either way there's some tough teams on the schedule this year, on paper anyways. 
    • Same. I would prefer a MNF game earlier in the season. As if more likely has some significance in case things go south this season. If we perform well enough we could even get another game forced to a Sunday night spot later in the season. 
    • Wanted to jump into this thread. Although I do not post anymore I do look in as there are a few old friends around. Loved hearing some of the names you mentioned.  Another  oldie is NanceUSMC.  He is the one who got me here from the old Observer forum.  Good guy and smart football guy. I have learned a lot from a lot of good Huddlers over the years, Over time. we have sadly lost a few who left this earth too soon.  Anyone who know of someone, it would be nice to try to make a list.  One of the more recent, CosmoGirl,  was someone that kind of hit hard.  Life sucks sometimes. Some of the best times were when we had our own tailgate and could meet up in person.  I think it made us better. Several dedicated volunteers, lead by LiverMush, started setting things up in the wee hours of each gameday morning.  Don't know all those regulars but I remember JakeFlake was one.  For you newbies...each game,  a Huddler (or a group) sponsored the food for each tailgate.  Eating was free but a donation was asked for.  At the end of the year those donations were used to buy bicycles for Toys for Tots.  Over the years Huddlers bought a lot of new bikes for kids for Christmas.  (I am guessing a couple of hundred each year.)  We had a good time getting together, got to make friends in person, and then got to feel like you were doing something good. It was truly a community. I got to meet Dan Morgan at one of our tailgates...he brought pizza from his restaurant.  How many of you remember that?  Glad the restaurant did not make it....lol. Not only have people changed, and come and gone.....but the entire nature and purpose has changed. Nothing lasts forever and we move on but we still like to think about good times. Same reason we take pictures. Want to ask a question I have not seen anyone else mention......who remembers    "The Couch" ?  We have argued, laughed, lived the ups and downs of football and dealt with a little real life along the way.  A thanks to  the Mods who keep this going.  I am sure they sacrifice a lot of their time out of love for the forum and the Panthers. Take care my friends and be well.  I will close with my new favorite quote which I think is greatly needed in these difficult times.
