I think if Sam comes in and provides a steady hand and wins a few ball games they would bring him back on a team friendly deal. I don’t think he has a problem being the back up QB. 
 

Baker is going to demand that he start or compete for the starting role wherever he goes or he’s going to cry about it.

The fact that people want to see Darnold play again proves that the Huddle does have a portion of the dumbest Panther fans representing themselves in here.

I get that, however people also tend to forget that:

1: Sam was playing behind a historically awful o-line.

2: CMC goes down when we were 3-0, then the wheels fell off.

3: While running for his life behind the historically awful o-o-line he got injured.

It would be nice to see what he could do given a little bit of time to settle in and make some reads.

I mean, if Chubba Hubbard turns into Adrian Peterson the next couple weeks we could easily trade CMC and extend Hubbard. 

Sam Darnold has never provided a steady hand from college to pros.  He is the polar opposite of a steady hand.

He was the worst quarterback from a clean pocket in 2021.

Stop using these two things as an excuse to why he sucks. 
If he was a better QB he would have risen above it. He didn’t.

I think Sam is a lost cause too, but too much weight is put on this. 
 

If you’re getting hit/pressured all the time, you naturally get conditioned to it. The occasional clean pocket ain’t gonna be comforting.

 

You are expecting to get that ass blown up.

      Post- Training Camp 53-Man Roster Projection

      By Seltzer · Posted

      By all indications, the surgery was "minor." I know with all surgeries and especially back surgery there can be complications, but I think the whole time Tremble did this with the expectation he would be able to be back for Week 1 It sounds like he will be ready to start back in team drills next week. He's a veteran who knows the system so I'm sure that helps. I still can't imagine he will play a normal workload early on though

      Maybe. He was pretty good in college before a bad injury. He had a good preseason last year as a UDFA in Washington and was on their practice squad all year so they obviously saw something worth developing. He signed a futures deal with the Panthers earlier this year, and everything about him has been increasingly positive. Tremayne has gotten a decent amount of time with the ones, and a lot with the twos for someone that doesn't have a chance. He's the only other 6'4" plus WR on the team, plays ST, and is a more natural backup to the X receiver position than David Moore. That was my thinking behind it. But he may well end up as one of the last roster cuts. If so, I do hope they can bring him back to the PS. But I personally think there's a good chance he could be claimed given his ST ability and what hes shown at WR.

      That was my thought originally, but so many of the beat writers have mentioned keeping 7 WRs in conversations that I went with that, at least for the purposes of this projection. But you're right that historically defensive guys who were standouts at ST have tradionally gotten those last spots
