Grew up in Frederick, MD.  Lived in Charlotte most of my life.

Currently working in Frederick MD.

Frederick suuuuuuuuucks.

Charlotte times 100,000 - not comparable.

Maryland sucks as a whole compared to VA and NC and even SC.

Annapolis is the only city I like in MD.

But it’s far better than WV and PA.

NC for the win.

I like Pittsburgh. It's a wonderful city. Arts, culture, outdoor activities, food, relatively low crime rate for a city its size---a lot lower than Charlotte's. The cost of living is great compared to Charlotte and the Triangle as well. It just offers a lot more. The only negative is the winter weather. Pennsylvania has several cities on the best place for retirees to live.

Everyone in the Carolinas is from Pittsburgh, Columbus OH, and Upstate NY.

Pittsburgh is a cool city, but there are many reasons everyone is exiting to the Carolinas.

Maybe it will reverse one day.

Is this supposed to make me feel better about our WRs?

 

Cocker has 8 receptions for 108 yards on the season.

He has a limited body of work, but 8 receptions in three games in the rotation on 8 targets--that is promising.  That is about an average of 36+ yards per game---over 17 games, that would be over 600 yards--with bad QB play, I'll take it.  But he has not established himself by any means, but he has done all he can do.

Given where we are....

Johnson and Theilen make sense ONLY if Carolina was trying to develop Bryce Young

If Andy Dalton is your QB, AT and DJ make little sense.  You need XL, Coker, Saunders, Mingo, Brooks getting the reps. 

I absolutely agree with the last sentence of your post. I disagree (just a little) with sentence 2.

I'd hate to lose AT and DJ in the middle of the season. These guys are established VETS who understand coverages and know how to get open. If we lose both of them before the deadline we would have no veteran presence to help the QBs during the game or help the younger guys develop their games. If AT and DJ are both traded we would probably have the youngest receiving core in the NFL...paired with the worst QB play if somehow Young ends up getting most of the snaps going forward.

Unless David Moore becomes a starter, 3 of our starters (Coker, Mingo, and Legette) would have less than 2 years of experience. The Panthers TE corps is among the worst in the league. Scoring points would become harder which is the last thing the team can afford with a defense as poor as ours. If Dalton returns soon I'd like to give him at least one VET to depend on for the next 10 games.

FYI: DJ leads the tea with reception yardage: 357. No other player on the team has reached the 200 yard mark for the season thru 7 games.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      For starters, and again I am not sure what his capacity is in the media or how connected he is to the team, but I posted above Al Wallace says he is "absolutely" getting 50+ a year and he deserves it.  I obviously strongly disagree with it but it feels like like season when the team is slow leaking info to gauge the temp.   Secondly nobody on Gods green earth is going to sign an extension making less than he is making now.  Thats just crazy talk.

      No. Physical tools alone aren't enough. There are plenty of examples of draft busts to support that. Aost all of them had the physical tools and that wasn't enough. But Bryce is a perfect example of the opposite. Absolutely elite intangibles aren't enough either. If you simply don't have the physical abilities all the football intelligence and work ethic in the world won't be enough to overcome it. Just look to the sidelines every Sunday. We call those people "coaches".

      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.
