He was so worth that in my opinion. Watch him begin to shine this season

I'm still shocked at how wrong the NFL got that evaluation. It's like they forgot who he was as a player just because he had to turn into a poor man's The Golden Calf of Bristol his final year of college due to losing his entire supporting cast of skill position players to the NFL draft. UNC isn't Bad or UGA or OSU. They can't just bounce right back from that type of talent exodus, the depth of talent just isn't there.

Thank God the QB contracts are finally getting reasonable. 

52 million dollars a year for a Justin Herbert is absolutely insane.  WTF is Burrow gonna get?  60 a year?  Its untenable to have 1 player, regardless of how talented, eat up 25% of your salary cap.  Something has got to give.

I didnt think he was worth a top 10 pick or probably even a first round one either but he was IMO a damn lock for us to take him in the 4rth or 5th just as another cheap dart to keep throwing at the position.

Matt Rhule would have buried him just like he did with Corral and we’d be sitting here in the same position with Bryce Young and Howell instead of Corral just hoping he shows enough in preseason to develop some trade value.

Sadly, this is probably accurate.

Rhule had the Midass touch. Everything he touched turned to sh-t 😕

For our part, I know the word was that Corral was McAdoo's pick.

They could do something like the MLS or NBA luxury tax, and give some kind of QB position exemption on the salary cap. Like 50% is not counted towards the cap space. Of course, the owners probably wouldn't like it because that's more money out of their pockets, because they don't make enough money on tv deals, tickets, merchandise, food, etc...

I don't disagree at all with the point that Rhule is a clown but Howell played in 1 game last year and only because Wentz and Heinicke got hurt/sucked. It's not like he started a season and got a ton of reps/time. 

Why did I read Wentz and Heinicke as Weinke?

Serious question, Huddle: Who's worse Patrica or Rhule?

Patricia is worse. Ruhle at least has some credibility left in the college game. One of the funniest (not in a good way) things I’ve seen a HC do was when Patricia talked down to a reporter about sitting up straight and tucking a shirt in to have respect for the process when he looks like he should be a line cook at a dennys.

      PFF ranks the 2025 starting QBs

      By Seltzer · Posted

      Regardless of how we got here, any rational fan should be excited by how well Bryce played down the stretch. Anyone not happy about that level of play either doesn't know what they're looking at, or they're still trying to drive tired narratives. Obviously, Cam had an all-time rookie season, and I'm not putting the two in the same basket yet, but as someone who has watched every snap of Panthers football since the start of the new millennium (Im old), Bryce was playing at a higher level at the end of 2024 than Cam was at the end of 2012 (his 2nd season). Cam continued to develop into MVP form, something Bryce has to prove, but as someone who watched both (and will stan for Cam always), Bryce was playing at a higher level to end year 2 than Cam did.  Go watch the film if you dont believe me. None of that means anything for the future. But the people who said BY9 couldnt play in this league are wrong.   That being said, the only thing that matters is this year. #20 is perfectly fair IMO going into the season. I mean think about it, how would you rank him??!  His in-season turnaround is one of the wildest things I've ever seen... how do you rank a guy who looked like a massive bust in September and by January was consistently playing at a top 10 level? My excitement level is pretty damn high heading into this season. There were throws from the Chiefs game onward where Bryce had Drew Brees levels of anticipation. Im excited to see what he can do with a full deck on offense, something we really never gave Cam. Really hope and expect Bryce to move up this list this season.

      PFF ranks the 2025 starting QBs

      Not really, the only QB's (other than Anthony Richardson) ranked below him are new to their teams as a placeholder starter or drafted in 2024 or 2025, not a lot of gymnastics to get there. It's not about how many that is, if it's 20, 12, or 2... It means there isn't a QB who's team has committed to them for the long term right now that they have ranked below Bryce. That's not a great thing.

      Potential changes to playoff seeding

      By HaricotVert · Posted

      The changes to onside kicks were ridiculous and ruined a significant part of the game     It was already a high risk low reward play.  Why change it?
