Do we have a starting QB announced yet?

Wait what? We’re resting game 2 and playing game 3? Nothing we do with regime ever makes sense. They seem so reactionary to everything. 

Rhule said he rested the starters last game due to the back to back scrimmages against the Pats and noted that several players were banged up and needed recovery time. Makes perfect sense to me

Aren’t they practicing with Buffalo this week? Or did I make that up in my head?

That does in fact make sense. Will rescind my reaction

I will not however rescind my question at hand.

Who is our QB? If Sam and Baker are in fact playing next week, it appears the NE week being the definite marker was farce or they can’t make up their minds.

Yikes 😳 

I mean, it HAS to be Baker. If it isn’t and I was Baker I would ask for an immediate release. And knowing his style, could see that happening. And then I can see most casual fans checking out before even game 1.

I can't believe we didn't pick a QB before 2 joint practices with the Pats. We're going to go into the season with the QB and O-line still working out the kinks because we wasted the last 2 weeks with fake competitions. I bet he's still gonna have Jordan out there next week alternating with BC and Corbett

It’s Mayfield and it’ll likely be announced tomorrow. 

Schedule wise and maybe it would be procedural, they formally announce before practice begins, as it’s the start of the practice week with a presser and release. I’d like to hope that happens for all open competitions spot.

This can’t linger into the final preseason week/prep for the real game 1

I think even Fitterer would bail at that point. He already seemed irritated about all this during his interview during the Pats game.

You know I didn’t catch any irritation from fitts, and last night at a party I was talking to about 5-6 panthers fans and they didn’t catch any irritation from fitts either. I have the game on VOD. Do you know at what point fitts was pissed? I want to go back and watch this.

Pretty sure fitts confirmed that we were moving forward with BC at guard. I couldn’t be misremembering though.

    • From what i see, Canales offense requires a QB that is willing to take chances to maximize the offense. XL is also the kind of receiver that needs a qb to be risky to bring out his full potential. Its just a matter of if Bryce is gonna be that QB.
    • Baker just played how Baker played.... everywhere but here. He is a risk taking gunslinger.  Always has been.  And last year was asked to be what he was.   Geno Smith was the best deep ball passer in the NFL his comeback season.  Wasn't even close that year.  Again, that's the type passer Canales has always been around in the offenses he has been part of.  The pass game that compliments the stubborn run is the deep chunk play pass game.   And that was his first investment with XL.  My continued point, is the same as going into last season.  It's a bad marriage going in.  The QB doesn't fit the scheme.  Again.  Carrol/Fox/Ron....all paired up their boring football with risk taking QBs.  And again, I'm fine if that is where we are going.  It's not my preference but that's not my argument.  I'm saying if we are doing that, we need a QB that matches it.     
    • I guess you missed the point. His rushing attack was dead last yet his team still performed. That’s not Fox/Rivera ball. His QB also had a career year. Remember the same QB that played for us in the same division and was so bad he was cut?  Carroll coached after Lynch as well. In fact Canales was more involved in the more recent offense with Geno Smith and a good rushing attack. People are taking him wanting a rushing attack and assuming that means we are shutting down our passing attack. Again many of the top offenses like SF, Miami, and Detroit featured strong rushing attacks.
