Purdy is already ahead of him in reading defenses and performing under pressure.

I can definitely agree with you on performing under pressure but Purdy was also behind a Top 10 Line in both pass-blocking and run-blocking. I don't think Darnold will look like a superstar over there but he definitely will look better than he did in Carolina.

In defense of Sam his last starts when he came back looked vastly better than under his 2 previous coaching staffs. There's probably never been a young qb with worst staffs to start a career. While I don't think he's a top tier type qb he can be a starter in the nfl. 

Apparently you missed the Saints game.

I honestly believe if Darnold starts a few games there, he will be successful. He has a better chance than Baker in Tb, with that SF squad and cmc as a release. I’m rooting for him. The Jets and Rhule staff failed him. He’s in the best situation possible.  On that team, playing 17 games I can see him out performing Derek Carr’s best season. With a date with Philly in the NFC champ.   Obviously it’s Purdy’s team and Carolina will knock them out in the divisional round.

Happy for Sam. He's back home on the west coast, he's with CMC who he's gotten to know from their time together in Carolina, and he's playing for a coach that has a run-heavy system that just needs their QB to get the ball to the guy in space that they schemed open. It couldn't be a better situation for him after everything he's already been through in the league.

The exact same thing we need to do for Young so he succeeds right off the bat.

I think he can get there. But to lead them there.... I can see him leading them there in the same way guys like Shaun King, Blake Bortles, and Case Keenum have in the past.

If they make it, it will be in spite of Sam, not because of him.

      The Cavalry is Coming

      I'll be honest.  I'm not sure I want to see any those guys returning right now given what others are presently doing.... minus Coker.  Hubbard returning likely messes the run game up (I mean, it's going to come down regardless but he still), Tremble and Evans actually are doing well, Corbett seems to make us worse up front, and the D has made some strides.  I'd like to just keep that whole lot on the shelf this week.

      Ikem Ekwonu is slated to GET PAID

      By Basbear · Posted

      I don't think people know that Icky is still only 25 years old. Panthers signed UDFAs older this year and drafted DJ Johnson. Heres a fact, a deep fact.... Its easier(much) to find a good-great QB than good-great LT. Another fact there's only 12-15 true LTs and the others are larping as LT.  SO....(I'm not a fan btw)......you nearly must resign him at all cost even with him being around the 12th best at times. Its the hardest spot to fill and he's still awful young with 4 years as a pro. Carolina already got 4 years of "cheap" service as well, that's invested time and effort.  The fan-side of me hopes he signs some top 5 at best top 3 big money deal. Just the cap keeps growing and LTs, young LT with experience are rrrrrrare and unique. Tag him if needed and tag him again, then trade him. I think he enjoys being/living in NC.  I hope he's stays on a team friendly deal, but those are soooo rare these days.  Only two options- pay him whatever, even if it's top $$$$$(uggggghhhh..) or tag him for 2027 and keep trying to pay. Worst outcome is trading him for couple 1s, 3s, and 5th maybe a player too.

      DJ Moore trade talk

      By CRA · Posted

      I always loved DJ Moore.  I don't see him wanting to comeback here.  He seems to be tired of inconsistent QB play and you finally see that bubbling over in Chicago.  or maybe he just doesn't like the people.  He actually seemed fine with Fields.....and lobbied for them not to draft Caleb.  So maybe it's just a Caleb issue (and I think Caleb might have tons of baggage/issues that rub folks wrong)
