Maybe. But we can believe in Santa for a while longer

No one with any sense believes in Sam Darnold, including the Panthers.

The playcalling told that story all game long.

Glad he didn't screw it up against the worst team we will face all season. Especially one that every Panthers fan should hate with a passion.

He played well. Why wouldn't you watch?

I've never missed an actual game in history.

I miss a fair amount these days live.  Kid sports get in the way during the first half of the seasons lately.  That’s not the case right now though. 

but I’m not going to miss out on things to sit at home and watch a interim HC finish out a losing season with Sam Darnold at QB.   Team isn’t offering enough to the fans for that trade off right now IMO.   So I’ll just follow on the ticker and wait for the new era to get excited about.

Realistically he could come crashing down.

Like I said the only guy I like in the draft is Penix so we might as well hope Sam turns it on.

More physical tools than Richardson and Levis?

You look at his arm. He can make every elite level throw. His problem is upstairs. Now if I could pair Cam's processing with Sam's body we'd be set.

And running wise doesn't he have at least one 50yd td run in the NFL? Not college the NFL.

I want to see you post Sam has more physical tools than Anthony Richardson. I need a good laugh…

He didn't play well enough to have much of a fall. 

You can wish in one hand and poo in another but the fact is that Sam Darnold won't be our QB next season and it's extremely unlikely he is on this roster at all.

May as well just watch the rest of the season play out and not get too emotionally invested in our struggles or successes. 

It's going to be a wild offseason, I suspect.

Yep! They “PJed” him big time. Limit his throws to 19 and celebrate he completed 11 of them without a turnover. That’s a successful Darnold outing!

I like the USC kid.

See Richardson Cam Fields are all inaccurate. 

The kid from USC Penix Maye

Mahomes Young Staubach can throw.

 

If your QB doesn't have the ability to win from the pocket regardless of his ability to Run then yes you are going to have a hard time winning. 

Cam while a dominant scorer inside the 10 didn't have the throwing ability to put the team on his arm. He had to run to be fully effective. Same thing will happen with Richardson. 

 

The reason I love the USC kid is he runs to buy time and keeps looking to throw until he hits the scrimmage line. He reminds me of Mahomes.

 

Yes I never ever want a Cam style player again. He fell so far short of his potential it's criminal. 

Newton fell short because the team failed to adequately build around him and relied on his abilities rather than maximize them. You only want a QB that fits into your box it won't happen and we will have another that will make you squirm. I'll be happy to see it.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      By cranky · Posted

      Why do you say that. What leads you to think that we, as supporters, think his ceiling is 10-12. That's a ridiculous assumption on your part. The Seahawks won the SB with Darnold passing for 25 TD's, 14 Ints with a 99.1 rating for the season.  The Panthers with Young were at 23 TD's, 11 Ints and a 78.8 rating for the season. Not that far off. The problem with all the Young discourse around here is the assumption that the QB is the sole determining factor for a teams success. That just isn't true and it's certainly not how Morgan and Tilis are building the Panthers.

      Do we pay based on how many wins or how many games Bryce led us to wins? We've spent quite a bit on defense this year and hopefully they're much improved. If the Panthers do get to 10 wins, but Bryce has another year like last year where he showed up big in a couple, was present in a few, and forgettable in most, do we still pay him 50m per year?  I keep bringing it up because I think it's relevant, but Bryce was outplayed by a 6m per year backup last year. I don't see how it's possible to pay a top tier QB contract to someone who's putting up backup QB production.

      Post-Draft: Gantt sets A stage, not THE stage. Perhaps Reset Your Expectations

      By XClown1986 · Posted

      I understand tempering expectations, but there are some issues with his points. Walker was a 3 year starter, but Green Bay let him walk and no other team was quick to snatch him up. That says something. Freeling will compete to start. With Hunter, we rotate our linemen and even 5th round pick Cam Jackson played some meaningful snaps last year. Both Brown III and Wharton have underwhelmed since we picked them up. Hunter is a run plugger that we have needed. Hunter will play early, even if he isn't the "starter." Brazzell was described as one of Canales' favorite prospects in the draft and he has a speed element we have been missing. I think Canales is going to have plays drawn up with Brazzell on the field just out of pure excitement. It will be up to Brazzell to prove he can handle it, though. If he can, he will play. As far as our secondary picks, yeah they have to earn their stripes and Evero tends to lean on veterans. So they might take time, but if they can show they can play, they will see the field. Smith-Wade and Ransom did. Sam Hecht simply has to show he can handle the mental side of the NFL game. If he can, he is in a direct competition with Fortner, who's also relatively young, but also on his 3rd NFL team and doesn't have the power profile of Hecht.  I can appreciate that Gantt wants to pour cold water on what was perceived as an impactful draft, but facts are facts.
