Maybe but Carr’s ceiling is Cousins Vikings. I don’t want to be Cousins Vikings, and IMO, Cousins is better than Carr. 
 

Car has fumbling problems. 
He takes too many sacks and is a statue in the pocket. 
He doesn’t go off script. At. All. 
He throws interceptions at the worst possible time. He has bad-day-to-have-a-bad-game syndrome. 
 

If Panthers get him they have to realize they are not getting a QB that will win them a Super Bowl. 
But maybe the Panthers FO only cares about getting to the Playoffs. 

Word was that McDaniels put some heavy shackles on Carr last season.

I don't know if you can definitively say what Carr is or isn't yet given that he's been stuck with a sh-tty organization and lousy coaching for pretty much his entire career.

The guys who run the team now are much more qualified than me to make that decision so I'll trust what they say.

I don’t see how McDaniels shackled Carr since most of the stuff I have seen people have against Carr were complaints before McDaniels was hired.

This is along my line of thinking as well.

The Raiders have been a dumpster fire organization for his entire career there. Mayock was a horrendous GM and retread Gruden was a disaster, along with Del Rio prior. They have severely lacked talent and have not been able to build through the draft.

If our current staff signs off on him, it's going to be difficult for me to object. Especially given the sheer amount of championship pedigree and coaching knowledge we have assembled...

You willing to bet a 3 year contract on that line if thinking?

That is why so many are against it.


Yeah he's better than what we had, but he's still in that tier of QB's that are good but not good enough.

 

Then you look at our roster and a mid tier QB and you realize the team wouldn't make it very far in the playoffs. 

 

Carr had more weapons in Vegas than he will have here. We would have to add a lot more around him to even think about making a run. Im not a hater im just being real.

 

 

If I'm the Panthers and I'm going to be completely honest with Carr and tell him that if the right guy is there at #9 we're still drafting him. Sure, the plan is to commit to him and we don't plan on the right guy being there at #9 but wild things happen and we can't tell you that there's zero chance we're not drafting a QB at #9. So know this before putting ink to paper so there's no hard feelings in a couple months.

I'd agree.

And honestly, the staff we've got right now don't really seem like the type to blow smoke up anybody's ass, so I expect That's what'll happen.

I've said it multiple times. I'd prefer draft, but I won't holler if it's Carr. I think much of this fanbase has PTSD from watching us aquire 3rd tier vet QBs and them predictably failing. We've tried for better vet QBs but they didn't want to play for Rhule. Carr is a better vet QB.

At least he used to be.  As long as the guaranteed money is low I would not worry about it.  The team wouldn't make that decision until after the draft anyway.

If we land him, I could see a scenario where we still pick up a QB in April but more like Haener in R3-4.  

I saw someone joking about that being two Fresno Staters but I can see that as a legit possibility IF Carr happens.  Someone like Jake would be perfect to have behind DC.  I'm not discarding Corral though-- he'll be here to compete for that backup spot.

      The Ringer NFC Offseason podcast

      By frankw · Posted

      The division is most certainly wide open. The Bucs are a problem but Baker Mayfield is and will remain his own worst enemy it's a matter of when not if he has a bad game or even a stretch of bad games. As far as the Panthers they have done an admirable job of trying to address needs as best they can without pulling a Scott Fitterer and getting desperate which has only made us worse off in the past. On the Bryce subject all anyone can really say at this point is we just have to wait and see. This is the year and despite what the Panthers may say publicly doubling down and going all in on WR is as good as any sign anyone should need that they expect Bryce Young to have a very productive and convincing season. The pieces are in place. They aren't perfect but nothing ever will be. Regardless there's honestly no excuse for this staff and this team not to be able to compete in this iteration of the NFC South. Also just want to say this because I can say the hyper defensive posts already being made in here and it's probably going to be a season with highs and lows again but hopefully more highs for sure. But just because there is dialogue about a position group or a player that challenges your preconceived notions or makes you uncomfortable does not make it "hate" or "anti" this player or that player. For some people who talk a lot about nuance you would think this wouldn't need to be stated but that's where we're at.

      We joke about how the NFL has a script for the season. But maybe it's not a joke?

      If I was a coach I would preach "Don't let the refs decide the game" because as soon as you let the NFL the chance to help their bottom dollar whether it be teams that make most money or gambling then they will screw the team that doesn't fit their bottom line......is it rigged? No but do they try and make certain narratives happen abso-freakin-lutley. As I stated in a previous thread NFL players are the ones that SHOULD have all guaranteed contracts but the boot lickers on this forum disagree and argue for the billionaires in this world who own these teams, sheep

      I wont go quite so far as to say games are rigged.  You wouldnt have to work hard to convince me there was the occasional thumb on the scale but outright rigged? nah.   but collusion on the rest of the "business" of football, sure.  No one really believes that the only time the 32 owners act as one is during the negotiations of the CBA do they?
