I've said this before about PJ.  He's got a active arm but couldn't hit a bull in the butt with a banjo.  His accuracy is poor.  Throwing downfield with PJ is like throwing a punt.   

Eason at least looks the part.  He did ok until his Int.  I feel bad for the guy because he really gave us a small spark until the Int.   I would ride with Eason this weekend.  He can't be any worse than PJ. 

He averaged almost 70% completion in his prior 2 starts.  PJ sucking as a QB doesn't actually excuse what our staff did on Sunday.  It has been proven here and other teams have proven you can scheme up some basics for virtually every QB that doesn't belong on the field. 

There are things PJ can't do.  There are things he can.  They simply opted to not do what he could.

Sorry to say. But Baker just may have played his last Panther game. Ligament tears take time. Eason may take over this O and...not suck? I liked what little we got of him yesterday. Except that last throw anyway.

 

Baker is hurt and played poorly. Not sure we could get much out that.

I was doing cardio and rolled my ankle in a pothole. My ankle started swelling immediately and the whole bottom of my foot was purple. It took me 2 weeks just to be able to walk on that foot again and months before I felt I could jog again and it still gives me trouble. Now I don't have a state of the art medical staff nor did I go to the hospital, but you are correct that it is a lingering injury.

I just don't understand how they can start PJ after this past week.  That's the gameplan when he's the starter?  Not throwing the ball at all?  Might as well roll the dice on some waiver wire guy with a subset of the plays available.

Just snap it to #22, screw the middle man

No, it will be PJ and Eason this Sunday.  The order is irrelevant. 

Whatever is ailing Baker will either be resolved by Sunday or it will be a mad dash to get Sam ready by the Sunday after. Baker may be the next trade if we're not careful. 

I can’t imagine anyone wanting to give him a shot after seeing him play his 5 games here.

How hard is it to get a QB in here that can throw downfield? Like surely some of these college guys who went undrafted but put up crazy stats can throw the damn ball down field. At this point the Panthers should be bad, but exciting. Not bad and also horrendously boring

I'll say this much. At one point in the 2010 season, we started a guy named Brian St. Pierre. The guy had, up to that point in his career, had thrown 5 passes total in 7 years. To no surprise, he played as expected for someone that barely saw any action. But they still allowed St Pierre to throw deep and, my god, for one moment, there was actual hope.

That said, he then threw two pick-sixes but you know what? It didn't really matter because to this day, I still remember that touchdown throw. What was there to remember from Sunday's game?

It's not a matter of want to. It's a matter of who's healthy. Who sucks the most seems to vary week to week. At this point it doesn't matter to me.

    • Yuck.  I still kind of like Herbert but these playoff performances are rough....
    • I feel like this was the case with River and McDermott defenses as well, we just had the jimmies and the joes to overcome these deficiencies with all pro players at edge and linebacker positions.  Even then, was extremely frustrated in 2015 when we'd let team come back from 20+ pt deficits playing prevent only to barely win at the end. 
    • We need to move on soon and just use Bryce as a bridge to find our next guy. I'd like to see how this offense works with Canales hand picking his own guy. Bryce holds this offense back a lot considering you draft the first pick to carry your team and be your best player. We invested heavily for Bryce and need everything to go right just to have him look like a solid game manager sometimes. When he plays well he can look decent or mid, but when he plays bad he looks like a bottom 5 qb in league (backups included). It's not worth it, especially if we need to pay him soon, which means we have to skimp all over the roster. If the defenses don't hand it to us on a silver platter Atlanta style then we struggle big time. Defenses don't respect the offense at all. With Cam we could have the worst offensive talent and I'd still think we had a shot in any game we played. If Bryce is facing a 3rd and 10 I pretty much wave the white flag and don't think we can make that first down.
