I bet you never thought you would be arguing that point at the beginning of the session. 

I feel like I'm in some alternate reality where I would have said that about PJ. But he literally is the best QB we have right now.  I can't believe I typed that. 

Imagine if a team had given him 4 years of chances like Sam or Baker. He's at what 5 games?

I don't know what it is but I can't help to be a PJ fan these days. The team looks invigorated with him behind center and Rhule's ass gone. PJ has at least proven he will be a good backup for this team but right now I think he is the absolute best we have and needs to continue to start to see if he can develop even further. I'm sentimental though as I love a feel good story and would enjoy seeing PJ and Steve Wilks turn the team around together and both land jobs for next year.

With the cap and draft situation next year it doesn't really make sense to blow everything up anyway. Give them both a full offseason, maybe draft a QB to sit for the start of the year, if it doesn't work out 2024 is the time to wipe the slate clean

Well to be fair he's had a few years here under Rhule and it hasn't helped him.

The truth is PJ is playing for his nfl life right now.  What he does with this opportunity will determine if he gets another shot here or somewhere else next season. Believe or not I'm rooting for him to succeed even though I doubt he will. But I like his determination.  He's easy to root for.

He's already got an NFL roster spot next year based on the last 2 games.  Someone will sign him to be a backup if we don't keep him.

Yeah the whole bringing Cam in last year was a mess all around and was a waste of PJ's opportunities. The whole Rhule era was about getting the job, and then throwing random poo at the wall hoping that something would cover up the fact that he had no clue what to do with anything relating to actual x's and o's. At least that phase is over

Pretty much the same player. Good enough to win a few games, but also remind you why they’re not a franchise QB due to inconsistency .  

PJ is a solid backup but just like first half today he will not be able to carry this team into the future.   He has limitation in seeing the field and missing wide open throws.

Well I don't believe that I've seen anyone say that he is our future. He has earned some respect though, and has proved that he should be on a roster. 

If we think about it, since being committed to, P.J. is playing his best football. Sometimes guys need time and opportunity. I believe that was only his fifth start. He can get even better more than likely.

PJ has proven he can win more than one game.   I mean he literally has won games all 3 seasons he has been a backup.  

he played well enough to win today too.  That’s football though.  

 

He was a direct cause of us losing. If Forman didn't run over ATL this game wouldn't have been close.

He doesn't have to be the guy. He just has to prove that he belongs here to sit behind the guy in case he may be needed.  We are still looking for the guy.

We have had one of the worst QB rooms in the NFL for too long now to the point some people apparently have stockholm syndrome as a result.

Sam Darnold - pick six

Baker Mayfield - pick six

PJ Walker - pick six

One might look slightly better than the other on different gamedays but none of them are starters.

    • Exactly.  You let him play out next season and continue to develop Thorton.  Jackson’s earned his next contract, but his age and the risk of tying up such a large portion of the payroll at one position leads me to believe that we’ll let him walk. In all likelihood, we’ll draft another CB, or two, and bring in some journeymen to fill the roster void, between now and the start of the 2027 season.  That’ll create more balance financially across the roster enabling us to invest in other areas.  
    • As far as the NFCS … I think this division will be hotly contested the next couple of years.   I am tending to pay more respect to both Atlanta and the Saints n terms of how strong they will be moving forward, than not.    I am mixed on Ryan but think they have a decent roster to start with. I don’t think he blundered hiring Stefanski. And that offense can be dangerous with a QB. Plus, defense is arrow up. No 1st round pick, WB issues will dull their effectiveness. Question is, to what degree?   I think Moore is going to be a good HC and can overcome tape that people have on Shough. They need a lot but they were playing with people. Just the way you want to see all the way to the end.    Not sure about Tampa they have Mayfield but I don’t think they can maintain their success and Bowles is not going to last much longer. They have to go through all that. Gonna be tough once it starts. Might already have started.    For us I feel pretty good about Morgan. But less so about our offense, we have some short term RB and OL issues and those things are critical given what we are working with at QB.  Overall, mixed. Like a lot of what I see but some major question marks remain.     
    • Absolutely. If we are talking about a 20 year old youngster. He's a grown-ass man, and he doesn't know what his job entails or how to do it? Maybe he will be better next year! It's the Panther way.
