We could trade for Tom Brady or Aaron Rodgers tomorrow and they would look the worst they ever have in their career for the rest of the season.  Baker is playing below expectations and not good at all, to be frank.  He's missing the open throws and he looks scared.  But, shitty QB play is just a symptom of a Rhule offense.

Oh come on man. Both of those guys would make this team competitive from the start. This team does have talent.

I dont dispute we have talent.  But I maintain the offense is not conducive to good QB play.  The only way those guys would make us look any better is if they were given full autonomy of the offense, much like what TB did with Brady when he came in...  Look at the plays and play designs today.  Again, that could've been Brady or Rodgers on those bootlegs and screens, and those plays would still net nothing because the receivers aren't open.  It isn't the talent.  It's the coaching.

Yeah, I'm sorry, but I'm not going that far down the rabbit hole. You are blaming everyone. Not one player is playing well. Coaches sux, Owner sux.

 

I see a team that just needs a competent QB. Our D looks legit. Our run game can be effective. Our WRs ARE getting open, but the QB can't hit them.

 

Like I said. A COMPETENT QB makes us a very competitive team.

Idk what game you were watching, but those receivers were not open.  I counted maybe 3 or 4 throws where they were clearly open and Baker missed them.

Baker is playing like poo, but again, this offense has looked the same under 4 different QBs and 3 different OCs.  It's not the players.  Don't get me wrong, if a better option than Baker became available, we should be all over it...  but, they're still not going to look good either because the scheme is ass.

Yes, ride Darnold to 1-16 and the #1 pick 

I'm down for that.

And this time draft a Top QB instead of a Corner or something.   😐

 

If we're gonna fail, then let's fail SPECTACULARLY.

 

But I see Baker going back out there next week 'cause they won regardless.

Watching on tv is not the best way to evaluate how wide open WR are. Also, QBs need to be able to make throws into small windows. WR should not have to have 3 yards of separation to be considered open?

 

Also, let us not get sidetracked from the fact Baker was not so good today.

    • Not sure if they are happy but realize they can’t upgrade everything this year and are content with the group
    • Bryce among the 7 players Mark Ross of NFL.com guarantees will get better this season. Today, I am identifying seven players who I guarantee will improve on their 2024 output in the 2025 season. Young took tremendous strides in 2024 after returning to the starting lineup in Week 8 following his benching. He looked far more comfortable in his return and produced with consistency, as he threw for 2,104 yards with 15 TDs and six INTs in the final 10 contests. Most important perhaps is Young's confidence grew immensely down the stretch, leading Carolina to either a game-tying or game-winning drive in six of those games. Now he enters his second season in Dave Canales' system with his best supporting cast to date. The Panthers drafted wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan eighth overall to pair with Adam Thielen and Xavier Legette, who I also believe is poised for a breakout campaign this fall. The 18th-ranked rushing attack from a year ago added Rico Dowdle to complement Chuba Hubbard, giving the team a pair of 1,000-yard rushers. The Panthers have taken the necessary steps to ensure Young's third season will be the best of his career, and now it's up to him to not only continue to grow as a player but prove why he was worthy of being taken No. 1 overall in 2023. I believe that's what he will do. https://www.nfl.com/news/which-nfl-players-will-improve-in-2025-c-j-stroud-deebo-samuel-among-guaranteed-risers  
    • While it's fair to question how impactful a player's relationship with a coach is (especially if someone has questions regarding said coach), it's important to also evaluate the difference between the players here. Jordan Fuller was pick #199 in the 6th round while Justin Simmons was #98 in the 3rd round. Jordan Fuller might have gotten a Super Bowl ring while he was with the Rams, but he got it while on the IR. Justin Simmons, on the other hand, is a x2 Pro-Bowler (2020, 2023), x4 second-team All-Pro (2019, 2021 - 2023), and was the NFL co-leader in INTs (2022). Simmons has also fallen off in the last couple of seasons though, grade-wise. He very well might not be that same player, which could be why the Falcons have elected to replace him with Fuller. As far as getting the best out of what he has, asking him to produce with a starting DL of A'Shawn Robinson (63.56% of the defense's snaps), LaBryan Ray (51.48%), and Shy Tuttle (50.08%) isn't reasonable. Wonnum only played in 8 games, but had the second most % of snaps (37.27%) at EDGE behind Clowney (53.53%). The second-string DL based on snap % was... and don't read this if you just ate... Charles Harris (34.48%), DeShawn Williams (27.67%), and Nick Thurman (19.7%). The second-string EDGEs based on snap count would be DJ Johnson (32.27%) and Cam Gill (18.14%). With the investments made in the run defense this season though, especially on the defensive line, it's more than fair to demand a complete turn around from last season.
