You have to just stick Dalton and sign him for maybe a 3-4 year deal (team option for yr 4). When called upon twice in two years he delivered, and he'll be the best available. When he's done, just sign the next FA.

I think we'll see the Panthers avoid rookie QBs for the foreseeable future like they used to. Drafting one while you have a vet already only destablizes the situation with the vet always looking over his shoulder.

Andy Dalton is about to turn 37.

”a couple years”?

This fan base has suffered through such crappy QB play for so many years that one good Andy Dalton performance has some of you thinking crazy

Jesus. Chill dude. We still don’t have a team that’s going anywhere in January. Andy is competent enough to win us games while we improve the roster and Dave picks the guy for our future. Stop being dramatic.

This is a very interesting question that should bee keeping Morgan up at night.

Bryce - his career is on life support.  Will the Panthers keep him because they don't have a real back up QB plan?  Andy is 37 years old (or not quite yet?).  He can give us a good run this year, but he's gotten hurt from time to time.  If Andy get's hurt, that's going to be Bryce's best chance to generate some buzz for himself.

Andy - as I said, he's older.  Father time is undefeated.  Let's see what happens over the next 3-4 weeks before we crown anyone.  I'm super happy with his two starts over the past two years, but that doesn't get you a statue on Mint Street.  I think Andy will be solid, but he's not the long term answer.

I don't think our 2025 Qb is on the roster.  Either via draft, FA or trade.  Who will it be?  No one knows for sure, but this is something that Morgan and Co. need to get right.

Too early to say. But based on what's transpired over the last year it should be plain to see that our approach with any rookie QB should change wholesale. Dalton or another veteran of Canales choosing stays and holds onto the reigns while our next rookie QB learns behind him. No handing anyone the keys to the franchise without earning it.

a 3-4 year deal for Andy Dalton?  It was one game vs the Raiduhs, who are butt... no need to tie ourselves to an aging qb thats closer to 40 than not.

Andy, please. No more desperation moves at QB. Select well, learn under dalton, continue to add depth to the o line.

Yesterday was won because everyone stayed focused, but lion share went to the O line. We have one. It felt like we were one of the teams that usually exploits us. Rush never gets there and RB goes for 5 every time he touches the ball, and there’s nothing you can do about it. Dalton threw strikes all day long. Those studs and Chuba iced the game away in the 4th. WTH? Did y’all see our TOP? Imagine giving them 10 more minutes of offense. We were in 2nd/3rd and short ALL DAY, and it wasn’t from anything fancy. 

Please keep reloading the lines like the good teams do and don’t Panthers this one up. They’re always ‘Just a qb away,’ don’t add quality depth to the O line, injury begats injury, QB gets destroyed and the hamster wheel goes on. Forget trying to ice a game away in the 4th. Hows the backup’s backup at center working out for you? You think lack of continuity and playing most of your games on turf doesn’t increase chance of injury? 

If you don’t have a capable QB, you don’t win FB games. If you can’t protect your QB, you end up in the nauseating purgatory between average and borderline bad for seasons on end. It doesn’t matter how good your defense is. It doesn’t matter if you have first round WRs or a stud RB. 

This team has the luxury of low expectations right now. Embrace it, be patient, choose a QB with a similar skill set as Andy’s. This line is built to block for a true pocket passer.

      Wild Idea.. Trade for Shemar Stewart

      By Basbear · Posted

      Best I heard its a clause the bungals want to add. It prevents them form paying the full guaranteed amount if triggered. No one knows the details of the clause, but guesses are it relates to off-field stuff. Stewart is in the right here. Before they signed burrow, chase, and Higgins they were the cheapest team in the league bar none. Unlike tepper or jarrah Jones or any other NFL ownership, all Mike brown owns is the beagals. Every other owner has many other money making businesses, not bungals.  I still remember when Brenston Bunker was starting on WFNZ and he told the story about the beagals telling him to pick a used cup form a huge pile, LOLS! They been on hard knocks and I remember Marvin lewis telling the players not to take home Gatorade bottles........* but in that case, I believe some players were taking a back pack and filling it up with drinks. Still you make millions(around 200million) in net profit and Im sure coke gave the team those bottles, still... Its a 32 team billion business, someone has to the cheapest.....Panthers were around the next cheapest team before tepper bought them and he has POURED millions upon millions into the team. He bought a bubble that Richardson never would, so the team had to gather in building during the rain. He spent millions on coofus machines that he just gave away like the bubble. Tepper made that AC trailer a thing. I've trashed him about his concerts and taking away end zone seats from fans. But the guy will spend money any way to efforts to better the team, dang I just remembered the deal he gave Rhule- more than Andy Reid at the time.  I know results have not came, but Id 100% take Tepper over Mike brown as a owner.

      There's no way they're shipping you some uniform you haven't seen lol.  I feel like they'd just refund you and ask if you wanted the new one when it launched. Probably just making the blues the primary, or a new helmet for a new alternate/variation.

      Man even after 5-12 seasons they are able to produce hype videos.
