"Panthers invite the general public for QB tryouts" 

within the article........

" Wilks stated, "Its something innovative, exciting and Tepper agreed its our best shot at finding a healthy backup to Eason come this Sunday." Many with the NFL front office are questioning the move while the Panthers organization are busy ordering 100s of new game jersey's with "your name here" on the back for the anxious participants when they show up at Bank of America stadium on Weds afternoon to test their savviness as they compete for the position. "We have former small college QBs, ex high school players and even some people who played in Pop Warner all ready to shake off the rust and test their stuff against others", Wilks elaborated.

Concern about how soon one of them could learn the Panthers playbook within days after being selected to be dressed for this Sunday's game against Tampa, Wilks stated, "It's no problem..........hell McAdoo doesn't know what the hell he's doing and I don't know a thing about offensive plays in the NFL so why would it matter if this new backup QB would know anything?"

Tryouts start on Weds at 1pm sharp........participants will receive a free parking voucher along with a steak and ketchup lunch after completing their tryout. The results will be announced on WFNZ radio during the 7pm sports update.

Jacob Easons passes looked slow to me. What should have been bullets were a beat behind and looked alarmingly pickable.

Scary. I didn't see anything special.

 

He has a cannon. That’s not the thing to worry about. They looked like good balls to me. 
 

Added bonus…his throws passed the line of scrimmage too. 🔥 🔥 🔥

I suspect that if Eason were farther along in the playbook he would have been elevated over PJ before now whether PJ was injured or not. PJ is one of Rhule's guys remember. 

As soon as Darnold is healthy he will either start or backup Eason until Sam is up to game shape. PJ will go to the practice squad or the unemployment line. Wilks just doesn't believe PJ belongs on the team and frankly neither do I.

Yeah, i think if Baker hadn't have gotten hurt PJ would have been unemployed after the SF game.

Since the Panthers are at the bottom of the league in total offense, third-down conversion rate, big plays, 30th in red zone offense, and 29th in passing offense and yards per play, I would like to see them give Jacob Eason a shot at starting.

It is obvious that the team is heading to finish near the bottom of the league this season and will be looking to select a QB in Round #1. Eason is probably not our answer as the starting QB the team sorely needs but with his rocket for an arm, he could bring some excitement to a team that is boring to watch.

They have nothing to lose at this point and a lot to gain if Eason can show some of the talent and outstanding promise he had in high school and college before he was forced to move from school to school and several NFL teams for various reasons.

I played QB in high school many years ago, so this could be the break i have always dreamed of. 🙂

    • Baker was traded before he played his 5th year.  RGIII was cut before playing his 5th year. So it is rare but it happens. 
    • Time to hit 4000 yards and 30 TDs (including rushing). I don't care about INTs anymore. That's a big part of the problem. He plays uber conservative until the game is on the line. Playing not to lose, instead of playing to win. Time to let it friggin rip from the get. The team can win with a pick or 2 if he has 3-4 TDs. Stop playing scared.  But to be fair, his WRs have not been great. You all can bash about 1st round picks and O-line cap all you want.  Chuba as your #1 RB his entire career.  Adam Thielen as your best WR for 2 of 3 seasons is ridiculous. Then a rookie as your best in the 3rd season. Legette is not a 1st round talent. Probably closer to a 4th if you compare him to Brazzel this year. Coker has been a walking injury report. Nothing else to really speak of at WR or TE. Jimmy Horn has potential, but he is not an NFL starter yet. Oline has been better as run blockers than pass blockers. Ickey has always been so-so as a pass blocking LT. Center has been a revolving door for 3 years. Damien Lewis has been as marketed. Hunt is a great run blocker but an ok pass blocker - when healthy. Moton has been solid at RT. Biggest problem with the oline has been depth. When someone went down, their replacement became a glaring weakness. Overall a good but not great unit the last 2 years. 2023 was a ish show. Nothing else to say.  Not one game breaker, take it to the house offensive weapon since DJ Moore. Hopefully we get a little of that from Brazzell.  Either way, in his 4th season, it doesn't matter. You have to be able to overcome whatever comes your way. First 3 seasons with a young supporting cast is defendable. Can't use that anymore though. 3rd year in the offense. 3rd year with the same HC.   
    • Highest amount of OL salary cap in the league too. The Chiefs are behind us at 2 but we are ahead of them by a cool $23 million. https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/position/offensive-line/_/year/2026/table/active/sort/cap_total
