Cam actually had pretty rough entire preseason.  Im not sure he even threw a TD pass and played in all 4.  No one saw the opening game coming 

I remember Cam scoring a rushing TD on the Bengals in his first preseason game, he was making guys look JV on his first drive.

I don't want my back up QB that couldn't make it as a starter looking 10X better than my #2 pick.

If Young goes out there and gets outperformed by Dalton, I would be bummed. And Dalton shitts on Mills. 

Eh I would worry too much about it. They are invested in Stroud. Mills is just more experienced and isn’t really shredding the defense. I’m sure Manning’s backup looked better than him his rookie year when he was throwing INTs like there was no tomorrow. If you are starting a rookie at QB you should assume they will struggle early but get better with experience. You have to develop your rookie. You could argue Dalton looked better than Young in the Jets practice, but that is pretty much expected this early in these rookies’ careers.

bro if people are going to trash my QB because he's the same height as them IRL, I'm going to trash the dude that a lot of people wanted over him for staring down his receiver and throwing an awful pick on his first throw.

quote me about his receivers tho.

That was a big red flag IMO. They either didn't trust Stroud not to spiral or they sent the message to their rookie that he's on a tight leash. If you trust the kid and you're committed to building around him you gotta put him back out there. Dial up some layups for him. This is just a bad look. Not sure on who or if it's on everyone. Don't wanna overreact to preseason stuff but the way that transpired is concerning.

Makes you wonder if they are going in the season with him as the week 1 starter or plan on working him into the starting lineup later in the season.

Yeah, I remember that run too.  Pretty epic run and I think was the play that allowed Ron to name him the starter.  It was the 3rd game.  

Cam spent most that preseason looking not ready to be a NFL passer.  Ron was looking for anything to give Cam the job.

Bryce and CJ are actually really good friends. Awareness helps.

I'm aware that folks are here to talk about CJ and Will. But I'm here to reaffirm my undying love for HATING everything that has to do with the New England Patriots. Even their commentators. They're lucky they dont have to see us this year.

    • You know, there's something about this whole JAG thing that really just drives home the idea that to some folks, these players aren't real people, just names and stats.  Of course, it goes beyond sports. We're a sad, jaded species, us humans.
    • I hope we get no featured games, or only one if that's still a thing Don't like having to subscribe to a service just to see the panthers play a single game, i'm looking at you peacock Football is made for sunday afternoons Word
    • Yeah, it's just dumb. Everything is year to year. I never understood how anyone could stay engaged as a Kentucky fan or duke fan as duke became a one and done factory like Calipari made Kentucky. The thing I liked at about UNC is that we primarily focused on recruits likely to play multiple years. We'd have pur occasional one and done but most of our pros still played multiple years. And the days of the Stackhouses, Wallace, Jamison, Carter, etc. playing multiple years is just over. And now you have your role players entering the portal every year to test the waters elsewhere. I don't blame them for looking out for themselves but just personally speaking I'll run out of interest quickly trying to get to know a whole new roster year over year.
