I think we can all agree that he didn't get enough reps and we were cheated out of seeing this kid play behind the second or first team lines because Rhule didn't want him to. Next year. That's what they told him, even pre-camp, that's why he clarified his position, HE came to start.

I think most people here agree that Corral actually getting to compete is not what happened. See being disingenuous has it's downfalls like karma, now Sam's out (who got a lions share of full speed actual 1st/2nd team reps), so is Corral(who can't practice with the team for a whole season 😕 AND the kicker as the kicker.

This HCs plans will continue to fall apart because they're built on the weakest of foundations. To have to watch this all over again with another disposable, blame able and former hope and dream of another town every season. Another one.

Maybe my displeasure comes off as Baker hate but it isn't. I hate that the Panthers can't finally draft a rookie QB to be the final piece of this grand Tepper rebuild.

It's maddening but I'm not mad at Teddy/Sam/Cam/Sam/Baker it's the absolute refusal of a "QB guru" to develop a rookie QB for the Carolina Panthers like we don't deserve the pride and joy or disappointment that comes with that journey.

We hit the jackpot with Cam. We potentially hit the jackpot with Corral but he was pre-redshirted before camp because his name wasn't Kenny Pickett. Petty Rhule is petty, nothing new. 

This rookie, everything he did, should have at least got a chance. He was micromanaged off the field as originally planned by Rhule pre-camp.

 

He was never going to get a chance to “compete” this year regardless. Period. He’s a 3rd round rookie who was completely overwhelmed when he did get a chance. Are you serious right now? Did you really think he was gonna somehow compete against Baker and Sam and actually win the starting QB job? He’s not Russell Wilson. And if you actually thought he had a shot to do that you’re more delusional than I thought.

Yeah man. I don’t think he’s the incompetent retard some of you do. I think he’s got the ability to turn it around and I’m really hoping he does. This year is by far the most talented team he’s had top to bottom. And if he doesn’t produce, he will be gone. But damn some of y’all are just so negative it’s getting absurd. 

It's not negative we're logical. The HC is a college coach and never hatched after two years of NFL incubation. Still doing the same things that lost him 23 games in a two year career.

You're actually betting the guy that messed it up can now fix it?

Spoiler alert: A guy installed our HVAC had to come back 4 times to fix it and couldn't. I called a very professional company who answered their phone unlike the other guy.

Needless to say they found the root problem, diagnosed it, ordered the parts, came back and it's fixed w/warranty.

Which guy is Rhule in that situation?

Would Baker have a chance behind the third string line(if you say yes...hmmm)? Not to bang on those guys but it is what it is.

We're talking about legitimate football stats and player comparisons, we've got a rival fan in this thread, and a team that some feel could be a shocker in the league this season.  Feels like old times and I like it, welcome back football!

I'm not sure who's more delusional, @rippadonn with his Corral love fest or @Iron Saint talking about Jameis being a HOFer. 😂

Delusional. Baker/Rhule will "win" in the NFL. That's more delusional than anything.

If we've learned anything NOT being a NFL first rounder is a much tougher road.

Maybe I gravitate to the underdog like the cardiac cats, the 15-1 Panthers. 

That's ok. I'm not crazy like YOU guys.

Baker,Baker,Baker.

What does that have to do with anything? Baker was the first overall pick in his draft. With a draft loaded with good QBs. He would never be in that position to begin with. I’m not hating on Matt. I think he’s got loads of potential. But him playing this year was never gonna happen. Sam woulda started all year if we didn’t get Baker. Matt just isn’t ready. And that’s ok.

The point is NOBODY would look good behind the guys that are getting their walking players.

You're judging Corral, talking all this smack when the guy had Joe's that wouldn't be protecting him at Ole Miss, maybe wouldn't have made his highschool squad. He was always "that guy", why? Because he backed it up on the field TWO years in a row of Brees level accuracy. Not because ripp said so.

I think it's very shortsighted and agenda driven to hate on a player who hasn't even been allowed to fight back.

If he had a chance even I would call bust my damn self, immediately, but this kid was destined for bubble wrap and coddling on sight.

      Monroe Freeling’s lovely GF

      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.

      Jeremy Fowler: Panthers draft day intel

      By Swaggasaurus · Posted

      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.
