He has excelled with Hurts as QB.  A very mobile Cam like QB.  Big, Strong and an added weapon in the running game.

Um....they don't compare this way bro. Cam has 4 inches (giggity) and 20+ pounds of muscle more on Hurts. 

 

But I get your point. You like versatility that the mobile QB's bring into an offense.

I was definitely pissed off Sunday and off the Wilkes train because he got stomped by a better coach in Tomlin … but then Wilkes did stomp Pete Carroll in Seattle so 🤷‍♂️

I’m still torn with how to move forward and maybe these last three games will help.  Maybe before going the unknown coordinator route because can always do that.  So see what Wilkes can do with his own staff, team etc when in charge for a full year or two.  Then go unknown coordinator route if Wilkes fails.

Giving Wilks a chance to finish building the culture he has started would be great. Or at least bring in a coach that can keep it going and not start all over again. 

 

In the end, I just want the Powers That Be to make an educated and informed decision.

There's a lot to like about Steichen, but do yourself a favor and don't factor hoping for 'the next Cam" into your head coach thinking.

(or your draft thinking, for that matter)

Nostalgia for the past really shouldn't play a part in planning for the future.

I was going to point that out but just decided it wasn't worth it. The only comparison is they are both African Americans.

If we’re dumping Wilks, I want Reich. 
 

People should look at what Pederson is doing in Jacksonville and should be excited about the prospects of Reich. I’m not judging him at all for his time with the Colts. That franchise has been a dumpster fire just like ours since their qb left.

Steichen has been my #1 choice since before Rhule was fired. I've been saying this for months:

  • Hire Steichen
  • Sign Minshew
  • Draft Rookie QB
  • Have Minshew helm the ship until rookie is ready.
  • Win more

I could really buy into that whole idea. It would cover a lot of issues with one hiring.

I'm not following the logic here then. If the Colts = Panthers and have been dumpster fires since we lost our respective pro bowl QBs, why would Reich do better here than with the Colts? It's actually almost scary how similar... above avg defense, all star RBs, revolving door at QB, losing seasons.

      2026 World Cup Thread

      By Joe Bear · Posted

      Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.

      LWOS on the FO's error--my word--on X...traits, timelines, Brazzell, & indications of improvement.

      Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly.

      Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
