Yeah, what intrigued me about Wilson was basically the polar opposite of Bryce Young. Wilson had that hose and the ability to throw ropes on the run. The guy had extremely intriguing arm talent.

yeah, zach had the talent. i think the concern for him pre-draft was what is going on between the ears...and more had to do with his character and personality. people thought that he might be a bit too entitled and not really fit or cut out to be a leader. he thought he was better than everyone else and didn't do much to try and hide that feeling. turns out there was probably something to all that.

but the concerns surrounding wilson are just not there at all with Young. I mean that's been considered as one of his strongest traits. when Cam was talking about Young, that was the thing that he focused on the most. 

I don't think anyone had or has any concerns about Young being the leader of a team.

Love some Jake. 2003-2008 are all time Panthers. Jake, Steve, Moose, Julius, etc. 
 

HOT TAKE: Jake Delhomme is best Qb in Panthers history. Love Cam but you can’t argue with how Jake always elevated his play in the playoff

Other that 2015, it’s probably a close call.

The question is if leadership will overcome his...shortcomings..

No pun intended.

Cam scored 60 touchdowns, I believe, between the Regular Season and playoffs. Might be one of the single greatest seasons in NFL History but it's largely ignored.

Yeah - That season alone gives the nod to Cam. If you took that season out, you would have an argument for Jake.

    • 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.
