Same here. Huge step towards proving me wrong. He’s definitely growing on me. Had we had more time, I think he would’ve pulled out a win. That last drive he was cookin’

It’s the best game I’ve seen from a Panthers QB since 2018.

It was exactly the type of performance he needed in a lost season with his back against the wall. I’m hoping he can build on it over the next two weeks but I’m still skeptical. 
 

good to see growth today and he takes some licks and just keeps on getting up. Have to admire and appreciate that about him. 

Agree with this, really fun game today. Now we need to see it again, until he can string a few together I’m not sold, but hopefully he can.

He’s already shown us flashes of great stuff through the season but people dismiss it cause it’s not the type of stuff they wanted to see.

That being said there’s no reason to say he’s arrived after today.  Just like there was never a reason to declare him a bust after 2 games.  This story is far from told but im looking forward to seeing how the rest of it plays out.

He played well. What it looked like to me in general, overall, is that he threw the ball with people on the target. Stuff that people were claiming was covered before (“where do you expect him to throw it?”), he was targeting. Finally. And completing which was the best part. 

I still have many doubts but he did look better.

Big picture: I mean, great, yes, they scored 30 and the D wasn’t in on it.

This loss seems to fit as a win in people’s minds so it qualifies for stuff you think and say and hear after wins. One of them is the bad stuff doesn’t seem as bad when you win. And that is true. Easier to live with. But it is still there.

That team Green Bay fielded on D wasn’t very good. So what this means who knows. At least the kid had a decent game. We’ll soon see if it was progress.

Refs though… have to agree with those complaining about that lost challenge of the deciding play. Not a catch.

I gave him props in the post after the game. I damn sure wanted him to be good even though I wanted Stroud. The 1st half of the Miami game gave me some optimism that came crashing down until the last drive in the Hou game. Today after the 1st Qtr was No 1. Pick material and what all fans want to see consistently! Good game from the kid Salute. He builds on this and not go backwards we 'may' have something solid.

    • I know it's only been training camp and one preseason game, but I think T-Mac has already shown his floor to be exactly what I said about him in the pre-draft process. That his floor if he never improves his game, is as one of the best #2 WRs in the NFL, if not even still a low end #1 (i.e. a 25th-ish best WR in the league). I think it's safe to say he's already established himself as our #1, and there are only a small handful of teams in the league where I don't think he'd be their starting #2 WR in Week 1. Bengals (Higgins), Dolphins (Waddle), Eagles (Smith), Bucs (Godwin if healthy), Rams (Adams) are really the only teams where I think he'd be the #3 as a rookie in Week 1.  A few others like the Lions (Williams), Bears (Odunze), Seahawks (Kupp), Commanders (Deebo), where he'd be the 2b to start the season, just because they're vets and/or already have a year or two of experience with their team/QB. And even having said that, I think by year 2, he's better than every one of those players (And no, I'm not saying he's already going to be better than a prime version of Adams, just whatever he'll be at 33 next year), and same goes for Kupp, but that's more because it seems like his body might be quitting on him in a way that hasn't happened to Adams (yet).
    • Well to be fair, Horn not practicing right now to let his stitches heal up from a car accident isn't something that should be concerning.  Sure, you don't want him missing practice leading into the season, but it's one that once healed, won't have lingering affects or fear of re-injuring it, it was just bad luck.
    • Quality backups are absolutely important. This franchise has been plagued with depth problems. That said, there is a little bit of dismay that Mays can't beat out a 1-legged man, and all the talk going into the off-season was how BC would certainly be gone since he had position versatility.  In the end, it doesn't matter too awfully much, as I would be shocked to no end if Corbett makes it through the season. We know what we have in reserve, and that should surely be better than trying to sign random fat guys mid season to try and take over.
