100% SPECULATION: Panthers MAY BE open to re-signing Baker for 2023

Operation Golden Corral was to point out the unwillingness of your coach to develop and play a rookie. It's well established.

Baker has had more than one game to prove himself, four years of games.

Don't be butthurt when your boy flops again, he was on his way out of the league before genius Matt Rhule scooped him up before he was put in the dung pile.

Facts

Mayfield very well may flop. The reality remains that Corral looked unbelievably awful while a couple years ago Mayfield was seen by many as one of the better young QBs in the league. While I've seen no one trying to crown Mayfield you've been here acting like Corral is the next coming of Joe Montana and you're coming completely unglued because of it.

There's delusion afoot and you'll find it on the nearest mirror.

You are manufacturing this narrative in your own mind because you're so irrationally butthurt about Matt Corral looking awful and then getting hurt. It's bizarre.

I haven't seen anyone trying to crown Baker Mayfield.

I'm not willing to play your game today. Find someone else.

I'm just calling you out on your game. Always shitting on Mayfield and propping up Corral. Corral is on IR. He looked completely dreadful before going on IR. Baker is our best bet. Yeah, that might not pan out but it is what it is. Keep manufacturing your own narratives about how everyone is trying to act like Baker is Cam in his prime while Corral is a future HOFer held down by Rhule.

It honestly makes you look completely insane which I personally find highly entertaining.

He played better than the guy who had an entire offseason + preseason with the team and that guy is still currently on the roster

I’m not blaming Cam. It was a near impossible situation for him. If he somehow played great through all of it, we would have tried to extend him. PJ is just holding a spot for Sam to return and we are stuck with Sam this year because of his contract.

Breaking news! If a player plays well this season the Panthers might be interested in extending that player. Same goes for every other franchise in the league. That’s the beauty of his contract situation. If Baker sucks we walk away. If he does well we can extend him. 

I am not arguing that but to speculate that we are already considering it after one game is BS.  He showed that he can pull it together and get us back in a game we should have won.  Getting us close to a win is not a sign that he's a franchise QB.

If he plays well going forward and we start winning, of course, but at this moment in time.  No one in the Panther Organization is leaning towards resigning him.

Yes I think everyone agrees with this. That is why it says “may be open” versus “are considering.” No one is resigning him now, but if he plays well they might consider it which is normal.

Talk to Linville, I didn't even bring up Corral.

You keep shitting on Baker. Who do you want us to play? PJ? That’s our only option right now. He was calling you out for constantly hating on our best option at QB. You call anyone that defends him “Baker Bros” and act like we think he is a HOF right now. Just relax and see what happens. If he struggles we move on and hopefully fire Rhule. If he plays great we have competitive football to watch. It’s a win/win.

    • I know it's only been training camp and one preseason game, but I think T-Mac has already shown his floor to be exactly what I said about him in the pre-draft process. That his floor if he never improves his game, is as one of the best #2 WRs in the NFL, if not even still a low end #1 (i.e. a 25th-ish best WR in the league). I think it's safe to say he's already established himself as our #1, and there are only a small handful of teams in the league where I don't think he'd be their starting #2 WR in Week 1. Bengals (Higgins), Dolphins (Waddle), Eagles (Smith), Bucs (Godwin if healthy), Rams (Adams) are really the only teams where I think he'd be the #3 as a rookie in Week 1.  A few others like the Lions (Williams), Bears (Odunze), Seahawks (Kupp), Commanders (Deebo), where he'd be the 2b to start the season, just because they're vets and/or already have a year or two of experience with their team/QB. And even having said that, I think by year 2, he's better than every one of those players (And no, I'm not saying he's already going to be better than a prime version of Adams, just whatever he'll be at 33 next year), and same goes for Kupp, but that's more because it seems like his body might be quitting on him in a way that hasn't happened to Adams (yet).
    • Well to be fair, Horn not practicing right now to let his stitches heal up from a car accident isn't something that should be concerning.  Sure, you don't want him missing practice leading into the season, but it's one that once healed, won't have lingering affects or fear of re-injuring it, it was just bad luck.
    • Quality backups are absolutely important. This franchise has been plagued with depth problems. That said, there is a little bit of dismay that Mays can't beat out a 1-legged man, and all the talk going into the off-season was how BC would certainly be gone since he had position versatility.  In the end, it doesn't matter too awfully much, as I would be shocked to no end if Corbett makes it through the season. We know what we have in reserve, and that should surely be better than trying to sign random fat guys mid season to try and take over.
