I suspect PJ is respected in the locker room as well, more than Baker and Darnold. He's a quiet guy, works hard, doesn't have a huge contract, they all know him, and he just wins games. 

That's the kind of thing Wilks would pick up on more than Rhule. 

I'm confused - isn't PJ Walker, former starting QB for Temple, a Rhule guy?

Man, you all love to cherry pick what you attribute to Rhule. He's a bad NFL Head Coach, but he's assembled a .500 roster in 2 years - the roster when he got here was absolutely awful.  Sadly nobody is going to give him any credit for that.

I think unless we're top 2 picks, we're spending future firsts this year to move up and get our person. 

That just seems like the logical next step for Tepper. 

Probably. All those picks will end up getting bundled. Future QB will essentially be paid for by CMC and Robbie/y.

Building a culture to win is doing things in reverse.

 

You build to win. The culture is the result. 

So, which is it then? Are the Panthers building to win mid-season, as in now, or is that something they need to do in the off-season?

      Can we get to 9-8?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.

      Eight of Bryce Young's nine wins have come off game-winning drives

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand.

      Trade Chuba?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
