I don't have prime and certainly won't be getting it or going to a bar to watch that game. I'll watch the Canes or Hornets if they're playing that night, if not I'd rather go to the ballet than watch that poo

i'd still watch the panthers over the hornets. hell i thought the G-League was over

As much as everyone loves Dalton...we were down 17 to the Seahawks' backups until he put up a garbage time TD. No QB can win with this team.

offense scored 1 TD going into the 4th and it was on a busted coverage.  I mean, credit to Dalton for seeing it but that performance is overhyped.   OL was trash allowing a ton of pressure.  We couldn't run for a single yard.  And the Seahawks are a bad defense. 

Dalton handled it better than Bryce would have.   And an ancient QB logged the most pass attempts in his long career to in order to generate that rather ordinary starting QB pass yardage.

You don't even have the selling point of hyping it as the race to the #1 overall pick since the Bears already hold them both. Damn... what if they ended up with #1 and #2? Take the QB of their choice at #1. Put #2 on the trade block for another haul and slide back a few spots and still land a top WR or Bowers at TE for your new QB.

I mean, it's the Bears so they're gonna 100% fug up the QB pick but it's still a sweet setup on paper.

no you take caleb williams and marvin harrison Jr even the bears cant fug that up.

Now that MJ is out as owner the Hornets have a chance. Not a good one mind you but a chance nonetheless. Which is more than the Panthers have under Tepper. 

This may be the same hopium that I bought into with Bryce and Reich this offseason but a healthy LaMelo adding Bridges and Miller along with development from Williams could easily have the Hornets back in the playoffs.

But I thought he was our Savior ? , we had the greatest coaching staff in the history of Football 

Anyone who suggested otherwise was immediately crucified on these forums, if you didn't like the Reich hire, you didn't know anything about football!

 

Man, I hated the hire and the pick and now look where we are.  A washed up coach and a high school QB.

It’s amazing what a good/great owner can do to a franchise. Hurricanes went from a crappy NHL team to cup contenders how many years running now?

    • As much as I despise Billy B, his philosophy on QBs is how I would approach things if I were a GM. You always keep looking for your next starter.  He has Bledsoe, who got injured and his backup ended up being the GOAT. Even while he had that going, he kept getting his next guy and developing them. When Brady got hurt, Cassel stepped in and went 11-5 and they missed the wild card by dumb luck. Who knows how far they would have gone if they had gotten in. Jimmy Gs career started in NE. There were others, but he always kept looking.  You can't be afraid to keep looking for your next starter, but it looks like we're afraid to look for more than a marginal one. If you're going to offer a $25m contract with incentives, that screams marginal QB. It also screams you're just a transition until we find our guy. After a 10 or 11 win season, he's not accepting that offer. And then you're in a Daniel Jones situation. Do you pay for a year of success and pray it wasn't a one year wonder?  To this point, Bryce has really produced nothing, yet for whatever reason, our FO has not even sniffed at the idea that we need a real QB room with real QBs. Dalton was never starter potential, Plummer was a joke. KP certainly isn't, neither is Grier.  Our approach to the QB room needs to be one of strength not fear. Bring in guys who can compete or who you think can compete. This is THE elite position, in an elite sport, paid premium salary, where production matters. Either you produce or you can lose your job. It's not mean, it's just the reality of the position.  And I'm really just tired of our candy ass approach to it. 
    • If you plug Bryce onto the Pro Bowl roster you might have a chance to compete for a SB. If he's surrounded by top tier talent with a top tier defense on the other side, a field flipping punter, and a kicker good from 60+ you might have a chance. But that means you basically have to recreate Saban's Bama in the NFL and that's impossible... and Bryce couldn't win a championship in that environment either. What the Panthers didn't realize when they got so obsessed with his "PG mentality" was that what they were looking st was a "barely checks the box PG". The basketball equivalent of Bryce would be an undersized PG with marginal athleticism who can make the basic plays but adds nothing to the team in terms of elevating the overall team. Not a great shooter, not a great defender, not a great driver. Just a guy who can basically get you into the offense and be a matador on defense. Basically a placeholder while you look to upgrade the PG position.
