You could argue he has played above average in one game (tampa) and still lost.

 

Throwing for an avg for 189 yards/game is not "above average"

 

You want to hitch your wagon to that?  fug that noise

That one game gave him a QBR that is good for 12th in the league?

I'm not saying I want to commit to a big starter contract, but if he plays well Sunday too, we'd be idiots not to bring him back on a cheap, two year deal to see if it's for real.

we tried, it didnt work, its time to cut ties and let another franchise waste money on him and try and to get him up to speed.   He needs to seriously be moved from this roster, back up or not, friendly deal or not he is not the answer

A guy who has shown he can play winning football for our team isn't even worth a backup role? Some of the Huddle posters' hatred runs deep.

End of the day, he's in year 5 and his performances aren't what you'd expect from a top pick nor do they line up with his contract.

I'm glad he's playing better, but the panthers still need a QB in this QB driven league.

This was the first year he came on and he did so in limited duty with a head coach fired and a new coach taking over. He looks better plain and simple. Nope he doesnt look like a prime Tom Brady but he looks damn decent and if he isnt asking for a ton of money in a new contract he should absolutely be resigned for a couple years in the offseason especially if we draft a rookie QB.

give him a couple more years because he has looked "decent" in a handful of games.  Got it.

What? So dont even resign him as a backup because you hate him that much? Like it or not the guy looks much better and looks to be a very legit backup QB AT LEAST. If he doesnt want to break the bank we should absolutely resign him to a reasonable contract and let him compete in training camp. If he doe snot want HUGE money we would be complete idiots to not work out something with him to keep him. Worst case scenario he would make a very reliable backup if he continues to look as he has.

I am convinced Darnold has plowed a few guys moms or girlfriends here. Their Darnold hatred is almost absurd. Nobody is saying he is the future. All some of us are saying is that if he does not want a monster contract, why not sign him and at least get ourselves a decent backup if he continues to look as he has.

It's not worth having the discussion tbh. Darnold could turn water into wine on Sunday and his detractors would still say he's 'trash' and want to trade the keys to BoA Stadium for Stroud.

He's been excellent since coming off IR, but very few have the awareness to recognise that.

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
