I must say, the whole Sam/Baker splitting reps during TC is starting to make sense now.

I know we all said how it was all theatre and the QB “competition” was a joke, but IF by some 1 in a billion chance we start Sam and he looks good, maybe the whole QB competition wasn’t theater after all and the coaches knew something we didn’t?! 

Like they knew they fuged up a trade again and both guys suck but still had pick one to start? It's obvious they're just throwing poo at the wall

The only trade off is that Sam can see over the line. So he might make a few more completions. But he's still an idiot and will piss down his leg and throw picks at the first sign of adversity. 

I still can’t help but wonder if CMC had stayed healthy all year last year and we had this O line to go a long with it, what that 3-0 start would have turned into. Say all you want about Sam’s collapse but mofo looked on the brink of being Josh Allen lite those first three games and Baker has similarly bad teams as Darnold did and has looked absolute garbage

Would not surprise me if Rhule didn't start Baker sooner than he wanted to out of pressure from the fanbase more than anything.  It never made sense to me for them to get Baker in the first place.  He wasn't going to change the trajectory of this team this season.

Baker did legit beat him out in camp, playing against our own defense. Against teams that actually game plan I don't think either guy is going to be in a position to succeed. We'd have average dudes like Cousins/Carr etc looking just as bad

    • Nothing will change with the qb situation until Tepper is convinced Young is not viable. Until that point, it will be Young. During that time, any shortcomings of Young will be because he does not have the necessary supporting cast, and/or coaches are failing him with faulty schemes and defective gameplans.  So, until Tepper is out, Young is in.
    • Young is the kind of QB who will go as far as the team drags him 90% of the time. And once in a long while he'll explode and light the opposing team up. That is not anywhere near where we need to be as a team. What' worse is that we've won way too many games this season due to an extremely easy schedule. So we can't select a top QB in the draft, and a free agent QB is usually not the answer.  The Panthers fell victim to a long stretch of bad QBs coming out of college. Even if we had made different moves and selected any number of different QBs coming out, we still would have ended up with a bust most likely. Bryce is a bust. Tua is a bust. Zach Wilson? Yikes. Trey Lance. Justin Fields. Mac Jones. Kenny Picket. CJ Stroud. My point is that a lot of teams were devastated by this stretch of bad QBs coming out of college, but we were dumb enough to trade the farm for one of them.  The smart move? Tale the 2 first round picks from the Rams for Burns, and keep CMC. Sit tight. Whatever QB falls in your lap in the draft, take him. Then use the other two first round picks to build up the o-line on the cheap. This isn't Morning GMing. I said take the Rams deal at the time. We have not had a good GM ever in franchise history.  No more trading up for QBs. Clearly is a total guessing game. Stay put. Trade vets for draft picks and start the rebuilding process with a new GM and new coaches. Cut Bryce and bring him back on a vet min deal. Then cut him again for being trash. He's done here if I had any say.   
    • He hasn't been the same since the head injury last year. I don't know if there are some lasting physical effects, or it's just mental. I hope he can get back to form, but I'm highly skeptical.
