he was elite his final 2 years in SD and better than Alex Smith or Kaepernick ever came close to being.

I don't feel like looking things up, but from what I remember, SD wasn't sold on Brees being "elite" and had concerns about his injuries. So, they let him go. Then Brees went to NO and landed in Payton's system where they won a title together.

The whole which is more important, the QB or HC thing, is almost chicken and egg. You have to have both and it's high time the Panthers go looking in another direction because the defensive guys they have long preferred have yielded mediocre at best results even with a franchise QB. Harbaugh, despite playing QB, is another defensive, ball control guy ala Fox, Rivera, and every other Panthers HC.

Brees had a shoulder injury that the Chargers, Dolphins, etc. were extremely concerned about long term, letting him walk to NO was never a question of his talent. Aints took a chance on his health and it paid off.

 

Lol not at all, Harbaugh is a QB guru and just all around elite coach. Comparing him to Fox and Rivera shows you don't know anything about him.

    • Biiiiiig eyeroll on this.  First, Look at historical stats of the most recent historical great DBs.  I plucked 3, Revis, Sherman, and Norman (cuzz he was our guy).  Combined post age 30, there are TWO pro bowls between those 3 and wanna get this...ZERO seasons with 16 games started.  ALL missed time.  It is RARE that Corners survive that long in the NFL and its about time we started recognizing this fact.  Jaycee is a good bet because it hasnt been anything seriously devastating injury wise, and with his sample size he could and should be an incredible piece for the panthers through age 30. Jaire kinda flops on the other side, hes 28...so hes under 30, but he wants his payday before it comes up, hes also been injury prone lately.  Bulk of the contract will be on opposite side of 30.  Will both of these guys help us be better in 2026?  SURE!  No doubt, but the question is, will these guys help us past 2026...not sure. The investment isnt worth the risk, nor would the ROI be anywhere close to worth it.  Neither guy is moving us from a 6-8 win team to a 8-10 team, period. My point is we're in this state a 6-8 win team IMO and he projects us as  a 4-6 win team.  EVEN if we think Jaire or Ramsey will make us a 6-8 win team, it in NO WAY is worth the money or capital to move that much just to suck kinda less.  
    • I assumed he was retiring but apparently he plans on playing multiple more seasons.  Florida is gonna have trouble holding onto everyone.  Happens to all teams that have that much success.
    • I hate Marchand, but if he became a free agent.....
