thats an awful opinion. 

Show me how they arent, basically the exact same career stats. 

And hell while your at it you can lump Baker in with them.

All mediocre QBs who are overpaid. 

If we ever hit on a real elite QB we dont have to worry about any of them.

Ok:

Cousins has started fewer games(145 to 159, nearly a season less), thrown more TDs (270 to 242), higher YPA (7.6 to 7.1), Higher QB Rating (98.2 to 92.3), and a better record as a starter (76-67-2 vs. 72-87).

They are not the same.

Baker got more playoff wins than both of them combined in less time in the league though.  I'd put Baker in sort of a different tier.  I think his rollercoaster play allows a team to reach a technically reach a higher level than the other two.

Lol by a few points here and there?

The lead to the same place QB purgatory. 10 wins early playoff exits at best. 

Same type of QB. 

If you were putting QBs in tiers they are in the same tier, below the elite QBs.

Does Carr get any bonus points for having to deal with the Davis family?

I dont think anyone in the organization cares who wins the division this year, we are clearly in tank mode

The Panther way. 

Most orgs tank to get a #1 overall QB type player

Panthers get the the #1 overall QB and then tank

He is all around more efficient than Carr. He has put up the same stats in fewer games than Carr. Kirk Also has a better career TD to INT %.

Kirk is a top 10 QB by all metrics hovering around 7-10 consistently. You can win a SB with that kind of QB Play.

Having said ALL of this, Kirk, like the Falcons, has a reputation of choking when it matters. So either it's a match made in meme heaven for everyone but the Falcons, or their anti-clutchness cancels each other out and they are actually good.

In theory just looking at the stats yes, but then you realize its Kirk Cousins and you snap back to reality. 

Carr has also been in the same range 10-15......its not a drastic difference.

    • A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.
    • I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand. 
    • Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
