Then why are you constantly on my ass about Lamar?

Why are you only debating me on Lamar?

You jump into others people conversation when it's about Lamar.

You don't want him fine. I do. Nothing is changing so why do you continue to be toxic everyday.

Look at the post history none of this is made up. You have something to say every time I bring up Lamar.

Kid, Lamar is pretty much all you ever talk about. I'd guess 90-95% of your posts are about him.

Richardson went through reads. That wasn’t the issue. Jack Miller lead the Gators to 3 points in Richardsons absence.  The next QB SHOULD post better stats than Richardson. He’s a fifth year senior. 

No he didn’t, Napier offense is mostly one read and go. Out of all the passing snaps in a game maybe 10% are multiple reads. Jack Miller was the third string QB and no if Richardson was good as they claim his numbers shouldn’t be better than him. Do you believe the next Alabama QB will have better numbers than Young?

Im done with you man. Wish you well in your future endeavors. 

 

 

It is totally fine to want Lamar. Different opinions make this board more interesting. Where it goes sideways is where every topic discusses Lamar. That’s what people get tired of. For example, this is a Will Levis thread.

Richardson playing in a one read and go? I take it you didn’t actually watch Florida play.

When he feels an opening or doesn’t have a clear picture, he’ll take off, but when he drops back, he makes a concerted effort to exhaust his reads and stay in the pocket.

It's actually his best trait. He maneuvers so well in the pocket keeping his eyes downfield under heavy pressure.

The game I linked has him missing receivers left and right from poor mechanics, but it shows him standing tall the entire game going through his reads.

Yeah I don't get that criticism in general. He scans the field regularly in most film I've watched. Who knows what the progressions are or rpo/play action responsibilities but he's usually not obviously staring down his eventual target the whole time

Jack Miller was only third string because he was hurt all year. Miller got us 3 points on a last second field goal. Stop. You’re just typing to type if you think Richardson just stays locked on to read 1 on 90% of his plays.

So he was third string….
 

Is the performance of a third string QB on a 2 weeks notice with multiple starters sitting out a meaningless bowl game supposed to be in indicator on how good Richardson is? btw he had a higher comp% and passer rating than Richardson 

Again is the next Alabama QB gonna out perform Bryce Young??

I've debated making this thread because it can go a few different directions, directions I'm really not trying to steer this conversation to.

Also, if I've learned anything about discussing opinions on the internet - it's that you're never going to change someone's mind.

 

Levis has been a top QB prospect since last season. 

Our owner is enamored by him.

Reports indicate that Levis is one of our top rated QB's.

Levis looked the part and threw very well at the combine.

Levis has been in an NFL style offense for the last two seasons.

His first coach went on to be the Rams OC, and he adjusted to working with another pro style play caller but with obviously diminished numbers.

Levis has no 5 stars running round him. No offensive line. Think of the Panthers offense while Cam was here, in college form. That's the Wildcat's.

Is he raw? Yeah, he definitely can use some coaching. He can definitely use some weapons, and definitely could use a line. The basics.

I believe with the right staff / situation, Levis will flourish and have the best pro career out of all of these QB's.

 

Now, where the fug is all this hate towards him coming from?

I'm seeing it everywhere, here, twitter, any comment section.

"Dude is trash"

"If the Panthers draft Levis I'm done"

 

People ranking prospects like AR above him. AR is a huge project too with inconsistent tape, playing with a way better supporting cast. Okay, he ran fast and jumped high at the combine. Why does this catapult him over Levis? Levis reminds me of Josh Allen, both his college tape and the pre-draft hate he's receiving. 

What is causing this baseless hate? Might want to start actually watching this guys tape rather than hating on him for whatever weird reason, or because you have some draft crush on another prospect like AR, or because he puts mayo in his coffee.

 

Levis might very well be the Panthers next QB, and like I said above - with this staff? Best possible scenario all around.

It's because ripp was in the OFFICIAL WILL LEVIS BANDWAGON since last season.

Their irrational hate comes from not being able to pick QBs to get themselves out of a wet paper bag.

Zach Wilson, Baker Baker Baker, you know who you are! Lol.

Although me and Payton Manning were on the bandwagon long ago, I see how Levis could beat out my boy if they put them side by side. Two versions of the same. One is just a inch and almost 20lbs bigger and a equally good runner.

I'd keep both and let them compete in camp the old fashioned way. If one gets hurt we've got a damn good spare, yeah let's do THAT IF Levis is the Panthers dark horse ripp approved and verified USDA beef QB stamped 2023.

I did have Levis as a late first rounder last year so maybe he's even better than I thought...

Here y'all go...

All these bullsh*t stories about Young Lion, no problem if they're going after Levi's, another ripp approved draft pick, but AGAIN, LIKE CAM, CORRAL HAS ABSOLUTELY NO VALUE UNTIL YOU PUT HIM OUT ON THE FIELD.

Don't make old mistakes for the second and third time. The Bears would have given us almost anything for Cam at the time had he played in camp.

Bryce couldn’t touch the season Mac Jones had at Bama but who is a better pro prospect? One was mid first round and the other might be the top pick in the draft. Jones was so efficient he had a Tua/Burrow type year. I think he set the record. 
 

Stop being a stats guy and watch the games. You know nothing about Florida football or the situation the team performed under this past season. Our “third string” was to compete with Richardson for the e starting job. He was a 4+ star recruit from OSU but he got hurt early on before the season started. If Richardson went down long term he was going to start. The fear of having no depth behind Richardson while Miller healed is what caused us to stop running Richardson. We couldn’t risk both of them being hurt. 
 

The bowl game was his chance to show he can be the man next year and we don’t need to hit the portal for a QB. We played so poorly on offense we got bood for kicking a field goal to end the game. He played so poorly we hit the transfer portal for a guy who had worse stats than Richardson this year in a much easier conference. 
 

Don’t be a stats guy. Watch the games. And it’s clear from how you keep talking about Florida that you haven’t watched the games.

    • You kinda gloss over this, but this is really at the crux of this whole argument....which Flacco are we talking here?  You bring up that he played with 3 different teams but ignore the fact that his performance varied quite a bit from team to team. 2024 Colts: 65.3% completion, 12 TDs, 7 INTs, 220.1 YPG, 7.1 Y/A, 90.5 rating 2025 Browns: 58.1% completion, 2 TDs, 6 INTs, 203.8 YPG, 5.1 Y/A, 60.3 rating 2025 Bengals: 63.4% completion, 12 TDs, 3 INTs, 290.6 YPG, 6.8 Y/A, 96.2 rating 2025 Flacco (Browns + Bengals): 61.1% completion, 14 TDs, 9 INTs, 252.0 YPG, 6.1 Y/A, 80.8 rating vs. 2025 Bryce: 62.7% completion, 14 TDs, 7 INTs, 196.2 YPG, 6.2 Y/A, 86.0 rating I bolded the comparison that I think objectively makes the most sense...just simply comparing the two QBs for the entire season.  Otherwise you'd be cherry-picking Flacco's time with the Bengals and ignoring his earlier stint with the Browns, which sounds an awful lot like people cherry-picking Bryce's stats in the second half of last season. So again, which Flacco?  Basically the only thing consistent with Flacco across each of these teams was his W/L records: 2-4, 1-3, and 1-4 respectively.  I'd say if we're comparing each version of him to Bryce this year: Colts Flacco > 2025 Bryce, Browns Flacco <<< 2025 Bryce, Bengals Flacco >> 2025 Bryce, and 2025 Flacco < 2025 Bryce - Flacco this year only beats out Bryce on YPG but in part because he throws significantly more passes (almost 60 YPG more than Bryce, despite a lower Y/A which is pretty telling) .  Flacco is maybe the most apt case study about how important a QB's circumstances are to his success.  He was easily a bottom 3 QB in Cleveland and arguably top 10-15 in Cincinnati...and we're talking about the same player from the same season.  All that happened was taking him from one team and plopping him onto another team; nothing inherently changed about him as a QB.  Funny enough I think that's all that one dude on here was trying to say when he made that long poorly-received post after having an epiphany working for PFF behind the scenes or w/e.  That it's largely short-sighted to just try to evaluate QBs in a vacuum when there are so many variables at play that ultimately decide whether a QB is successful or not.   I think Bryce has been mediocre at best this season and I'm ready to move on regardless of how he ends this season - I'm highly skeptical a strong end to the season will carry over into next year considering how last year ended and this year began.  I would certainly agree that he's a bottom-third QB this year.  I just don't understand you scoffing indignantly at anyone holding the opinion that Bryce has had a better season than Flacco...I can only assume it's recency bias.  Or maybe you know the stats don't support you, which is why you're conjuring up the god-forsaken arbitrary "eyeball test" which is the kinda thing people in here were saying about Fields for years, pinky promising that he really truly was a franchise QB despite his awful stats.  Perhaps it's called the eyeball test because I roll my eyes anytime I hear someone bring it up seriously as an argument.
    • CMC said he expected to play his career here.  He didn't think he would be traded.  Carolina decided they wanted to trade him.  He picked here he wanted to go.   But we dumped him.  For largely peanuts.   But we dumped DJ Moore and he never had a blood and guts game.   So it's never a guarantee. 
    • I have many people telling me CMC was blindsided and heartbroken by the trade, but that's not how I remember everything going down.  49ers are pretty wounded right now on defense so if our offense can sustain drives and score, that'd be the difference maker. Their offense? I'm not scared of CMC.
