The interception was dumb and the one ball in the redzone sideline pass was too high/wide, otherwise looks like mostly drops by the WR's. This would be a good game for almost everyone we've had at QB in the last 4-5 years

It's not really a bad game, but it's how he handles pressure in it. I'm really big on quarterbacks being comfortable standing tall, taking the hit to make a throw, or being able to calmly climb the pocket. This game he looked shaky at times, but overall it's not a 'bad' game. 

Maybe the last Panthers' Super Bowl is seared into my brain, the last Panthers' decade really, but I want to make sure if we trade up for a quarterback that they are completely comfortable with heavy pressure. Right now we have a good offensive line, but what happens when we don't?

The Peach Bowl game tape is my xanax right now.

I think I've stated often how poorly I've rated Levis when it comes to movement in the pocket, vision, ect. I have him rated as the fourth quarterback.

I just found a new one for you, I've been waiting for more Hendon Hooker breakdowns.

If we cant make the trade for #1 and only #1. I would rather take a chance with him with our late 2nd than Levis or AR at #9 or even a trade up for either of them. Obviously we would have to sign a veteran FA QB. Maybe trade for Mills from Houston. Use #9 for a WR, TE, or Edge.

No complaints here if we land Stroud but if we're going all in for the #1 I want Young. Everyone is letting his size overshadow the fact that the kid's game is as surefire as it gets. He will be great if he can stay healthy and there's little doubt about that. 

I do think CJ has the potential to be great but if you're going to eat the cost of trading up to #1 it should be for the sort of rare talent that only comes around once a blue moon and that's Young. He will be Drew Brees if he holds up and that's worth betting the farm on.

Or he’ll be Pat White.

    • A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.
    • I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand. 
    • Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
