Don't hate it, but was hoping we'd somehow sign a better backup and throw PJ on the practice squad.

I like having PJ on the practice squad given his scrambling ability as he can help us prepare against the more mobile QB's, but the guy has proven that he isn't much more than that, he's not a viable NFL QB unfortunately.

Rhule's fascination with his former players is not a successful strategy in the NFL, that needs to be stopped.

The plan is for Darnold to be the backup once he's healed.

I do think Eason is a better quarterback than Walker though. Gonna hate it if, when Darnold comes back, we dump Eason in favor of PJ.

I'd still rather have PJ on the practice squad right now while signing a better backup.

Then if/when Darnold comes back, cut said backup

Or if I personally had my choice, just IR Darnold and let that terrible experiment be over, he's of no value to us anymore.

Yep and he didn't live up to expectations...

He had decent stats at Georgia but injured in his 4th game as starter. Jacob Fromme came in and never gave him back the starting job. He transferred to Washington but had to sit out a year. Only played at Washington for a year as starter. Went pro after that one year as a Junior. Drafted by Indy in the 4th round. Was projected in 2nd round.

Who would you suggest? Don’t think anyone is worth it that’s out there. Keep in mind PJ has an entire offseason in the offense and took the most preseason reps, so at least he has knowledge of the scheme. I think PJ sucks but I don’t think it’s prudent to bring someone in off the street at this stage to be the #2 QB. Honestly I hope he gets cut once Darnold is ready to play and we just keep Eason on the PS.

      Tony Pauline: Panthers will strongly consider Kenyon Sadiq if he’s there @19

      By Basbear · Posted

      Brother, I don't want to drop the amount of rage I have about BY and the fuging Pickett signing....when murray was free, tua was free, lance was about the same cost. But you know during practice when other teammates see and hear the passing for any of them compared to BY, he may cry right then.... It does feel like Dan and Tillis were told "make BY work, by any means". You recall the first plan was to drop 163 million on OGs to protect the little fellow.......then drafting WRs and they even signed his buddy WR this FA period..... I just go back to Dan Morgan wanting instill competition throughout the roster and T-H-A-T is your QB room ??? bloody hell, what a joke and disrespect to the whole roster outside that group....

      Id drop this in here- I fully believe nearly ALLL the Tmac hate leading up to the draft came from the Panthers..... There was plenty and it was believable, cause many did just that. There was huge questions and about 85% of the huddle took the cheese hate.  I do have this too- Banks has a broken feet and a history of feet/ankle issues. If he didn't, 19 would have been fair landing spot. Of course, but Prince spoke highly of him in a Twitter post....former teammates and all, but he still made the post and I haven't seen other players prince did so for.... Maybe the 51st on banks, but maaaaaannnn big men with broken feet broken its feels like it never ends well. I mean after brain, spine, I think Feet are the career killer leader.  Draft DL feels weak in every way.    Last morsel- there's a weak rumor of Panthers trading for DT Payne out on the vine....(his price I feel kills it, but new contract solves that for trades)....

      If we go all in and sell out with Bryce as our QB, it will even more entrench the idea that Tepper is at minimum running the QB room for me. Now i could be wrong and Dan really is that confident in Bryce all by himself, but nothing this team has done in the past 3 offseasons leads me to believe that there hasnt been some noise from big T. He's admitted that he walks through the office making his opinion known. To me, Bryce's output has just not generated that kind of confidence that we are playoff worthy other than against the Rams. Against the SB champs, just damn.
