The Packers were past due for a dud after 30 years of Favre and Rodgers.

That's crazy to think about. Up until this year the Packers have had a HOF QB for all of the Panthers' existence.

I’ve known they had a great run. Had no context of it basically being as long as we have been around. That’s insane.

Favre's 1st year in GB was 1992. The Panthers were founded in 1993.

That's why I've always said that for as consistently competitive as the Packers have been, to only get two rings out of 30 years of elite HOF QB play is honestly pretty damn disappointing. Hell, the Panthers have nearly matched that and we've been a complete poo show for much of that time.

      That is probably a good point that I did not consider. It doesn’t force their hand financially, to declare early.

      Realistically he's probably not still going to be under contract when hes good to go again? Unfortunately for him you cant sign him for more than a small one year deal until he can prove hes still a good player... that might not happen.  I think hes played his last down as a panther.

      It has been going down that backyard ball road with the QBs a long time. It also has made it more difficult to evaluate OL for the pro game.    I agree though that the NIL is making it even worse. Then they get in the league and suck, coaches get fired. Here comes a new system every year for some of them, same as you are talking about in college.    Unfortunately, IMO, the league has responded by taking the path of least resistance offensively.    The only saving grace for the QB problem we identified here is the slotted salaries out of the draft. No more 100 million rookie deals. Which today would be 250 million and even more.  So to me, paying a player that doesn’t bring success in the first two or three years, you can’t do it. Better to take another shot in the draft or reclaim someone else's failure. Given that all staffs are not equal. Look what Shanahan did with Purdy for instance. And their getting off of Lance quickly.    In theory if Canales is a QB whisperer type, which we don’t know he isn’t at least to a higher degree than many (not including the established masters) we should be quicker on the trigger with these QBs. If Bryce doesn’t show out next year we really need to hit the reset.
