PJ Haters. Put some respect on his name.

No, he might not be an all pro.  He might not be a pro bowler.  He might not be elite.  But he is a fuging gamer and a damn good football player.  

He struggled early, but when it mattered he fuging stepped up and killed it.  Ultimately, we arent in that game at all without PJ.  I know some are going to hate him no matter what, but right now, he's the best we have, and again, I see him in the same mold as a guy like Case Keenum or Heinicke, maybe even a Jake Delhomme in regards to his underdog origins, but only with a hell of a lot more natural talent with his arm and legs.  He might not be the guy you want, but again, he is a hell of a football player.  And when he is on, it is fuging fun to watch.  

Thank you for stepping up, PJ.  You have at least made us competitive and make a season that felt completely lost and hopeless fun to watch again.  Keep Pounding, baby!

His pick 6 cost us the game. That and a sorry kicker of course.

That throw literally could've came from Aaron Rodgers and the same thing would've happened.  It was a screen that would've gained a ton of yards.  His choices were throw it or ground it.  If he gets it over the top, it goes long.  He made the choice most any QB would've made.  Carter just made an insane fuging play, and I hate praising opponents, especially division rivals, but that was just an incredible, lucky to happen once in a career-type play.  Carter deserves all the credit for that play, and PJ deserves very little blame.

And again, regardless, once that play happened, you forget it and move on.  PJ, as we all felt also, looked crushed.  Then he came out in the second half and threw some absolute lasers.  We don't tie that game, we aren't even in that game without his play in the second half.

He played his heart out just like Delhomme used to do. Also just like Delhomme we should strive to find someone better. 
 

Not mad at PJ, he’s far exceeded expectations and maybe he even catches on with another team because of this season. 

I respect it.  I'd like to see him stick around as a backup long-term, regardless of what happens.

PJ is, and maybe has, played himself into a backup role next season for this team or another. He’s not elite, but he belongs in this league and is the best QB we have on this roster. I want to continue losing, and ultimately move on, but he’s a gamer. I enjoy watching him play.

OP probably claimed PJ was going to lead us to the playoffs after we beat the Bucs. 

He’s a backup QB who threw against a horrible defense today. Let’s give him a medal for that pick six, though. 

No, I don't believe I did.

And again, despite his mistakes and misfires, he put us in a position to win the game and stepped up when it mattered most.  I guess you miss watching our QB get his passes batted at the line 9 times a game, or maybe a Darnold-era "throw into triple coverage to no one wearing a Panthers jersey"-style QBing.  Some people just can't ever be happy.🤣

He was pure trash today. He get nothing on his name. If not for Forman we would have lost the worst defense by 21.

We have seen plenty of trash QB play in the last 25+ years. If that was trash, I'll take trash. The pick 6 sucked, was a freak play. He picked himself up and battled like hell. There are not many QBs that can make that throw to DJ.

Damn straight, brother.

      Xavier Legette is the face of the NFL at the Kentucky Derby

      You joke, but hasn't basically the whole team been in Charlotte this past week together? I'm not one to see the random dumb stuff players put out on social media in the offseason and think it means that's ALL they've been doing and not working on their game.  But it's a little strange that all this is coming out at the same time we're seeing tons of stuff with the team in Charlotte together, even if it's just working out and not even official team OTA's or anything. So he gets a pass from me saying anything now, but if he doesn't show clear improvement this season, it then opens him up to some retroactive criticism for some things.

      Ha-ha, I bet that went through everyone's mind.  Admittedly I don't read all the comments in a thread before I make a post. Great minds think alike!

      An honest look at Bryce Young

      By OneBadCat · Posted

      Cam was hitting his stride as a QB in 2017/2018.     This is why I think stats like completion percentage are overrated. As long as a QB is clutch and makes the throws to win the game the rest doesn’t really matter. What good is a check down stat padder if they’re a choker.  Until Norv Turner (and briefly Chud) got here we put Cam in high pressure throwing situations all the time. We also ran the ball on first down more than most teams in the NFL in the Ron era. Coupled with shitty WRs, all that is expressed in his stats. I also assume Cam took the ball in his hands on many occasions rather than trust Funchess to catch the ball.    It was also never Cams job to play the game like someone else. His presence on the field dictated the game in a way that is rarely seen.  He showed he could play the dink and dunk game just before TJ Watt. That didn’t suddenly make him better than his earlier seasons. He just got put in a legit under center  passing game again for first time since his rookie year with Chud.    Ron took the quickest path to success and abused the RPO because his ass was about to get fired.    Cam never got the credit for being the cerebral player that he was. I just think when you are legitimately a human Superman, sometimes the best play is having the ball in your hands. He was a better passer than Delhomme was.
