With thoughts like this I'm glad you can't start a thread yet.

 

see my response to the other dude, you would think after 12K posts on here you would grasp that this place is literally just for fans to spew poo around like potential QB's for a team we have no control or say in.

Per Jordan Shultz...

REPORT: There is notable “disappointment” among some Giants players regarding how the organization handled the Daniel Jones situation over the past week. Many players within the team believe the decision was driven largely by financial considerations.

An anonymous offensive player shared his thoughts to Jordan Schultz: “We’re not idiots. They did it because of money. So be it. But Daniel has been all class, never complained, and is now being completely disregarded. The team record is bad. You can point fingers everywhere. To try to blame him is trash, and making him third string is weak as fu**.”

Dexter Lawrence also said, “He’s the QB1. To me, he’s the best quarterback on the team.”

I see no reason why having Jones come in to compete to be QB 1 on the Panthers next year is a bad thing.  Competition is good....I say bring in as many 'guns' as possible and may the best QB win the starting job. 

Lack of QB competition since Cam has been a big miss for the Panthers.  They brought Teddy with no competition.  They brought in Sam with no competition.  They drafted Bryce with no competition.  Maybe if these QB's earned it instead being 'given it' the Panthers QB situation would be in a better place right now.

You see no reason?  How about this?

 

His career stats.

24-44-1 With 9 wins his highest ever.  With Barkley

64%

14000 yards passing going over 3000 just 1 fuging time

70 tds 47 ints to go along with 50 fumbles.  50 fuging fumbles

 

In short he has 1 season over 5 wins.  1.

Not suggesting we hand the QB 1 job to him. I am saying competition is good.  The Panthers need a new QB room.  The QB free agents are limited.  They need to bring in several guys to compete.  Whoever doesn't 'cut it' is sent packing during final cuts after training camp.  No way should they go into next season with just Bryce Young.  Not having QB competition this year was a huge miss especially after the results BY had last year.  He should have been pushed to win the job.

In the short term no upcoming available QB's in free agency are going to do much with this roster. I have basically no expectations for the next few seasons other than more losing. All I know is wherever we go from here Dalton isn't an answer and Young isn't an answer. The QB room needs to be blown up. But it's the Panthers we're talking about here so you know there's a good possibility they pick the wrong guy or guys. It's just what we do.

Not having competition wasn't a miss, it was intentional. The possibility of an UDFA or some late round pick outperforming our big brain QB wasn't as remotely impossible as it should be. This was Dave trying to save his image.

Seriously? Of course his performance has been bad or he would not be available--you have to look past performance and look at his fundamentals.  A Wall Street broker would understand that--the most money to be made is buying unloved stocks--stocks beaten down by performance for any number of reasons.  A good investor looks at the sector, the context, the company fundamentals, and if he sees an opportunity for a rebound, he buys that stock for pennies on the dollar.  In this situation, Jones has the following fundamentals and measureables:  Intelligence, arm, mobility, size, age, and experiences that demonstrate he can be effective in better conditions (when his OL was average, WRs good, and RB great).  You folks spit on every idea short of Cam Newton coming back for a third go at it.

Forget his performance--we all know it has not been good.  Most of you were banging the table for D. Watson, if I am not mistaken--where would we be if that happened?  I see that as opportunity to get a "fixer upper" for pennies on the dollar who would come in to compete. However, as I mentioned before about Geno Smith, Goff, Baker, Carr, and Darnold--sometimes the situation is more to blame than the player.  Bringing in Jones would not be the ONLY SOLUTION to the QB problem.  He plays QB on a losing team in NY City that abuses losers.  He is mentally at a low point--I get it--football is very emotional--has a ton of ups and downs, but he has been down far longer than up.  Does that mean that I am saying he is going to be a great QB?  Some of you scholars will draw that conclusion.  I am saying he has all the markings of a beaten down stock that could recover and pay huge dividends to those who saw the fundamentals and took a chance.  I still say draft a QB.  Aside from Jones' fundamentals, the situation in Carolina is ideal for him:  

1. An Offensive line--Carolina has a top 5 OL and it can be upgraded at C.

2. WRs--We need another WR or two, but our rookies are very promising (Legette and Coker).  If Theilen has another year in him and we can acquire one, we could be above average.

3. TE--you have to like what Sanders has shown us, and Tremble (when healthy) is decent.  I think we could add a TE once we say by to Thomas.

4.  RB--Chubbard and Brooks?  Solid.  RB and the run blocking will be essential for a QB like Jones to turn it around. 

5.  A solid D.  Well, we lost our ILB, star DE (Brown), and OLB (Wonnum) to injury. That is about 30% of the defense, and these were the best players. Those would have been the defense's best players, excluding Horn.  We lost Burns  We will add a DT, Edge, and probably an ILB.  We will add a C, WR, and QB.  

His stock is beaten down.  On wall street when that happens, investors look at fundamentals and not performance.  We are not paying for past performance--we are paying for potential performance.  Bring him home and out of the nasty Apple--give him a better supporting cast--and let him mentally recover.  Pennies on the dollar for a potential good qb.  Just needs to get his mind right.

    • You literally did it right there and didn't even remember it. Sorry long Friday.  
    • TMac to finish up Feels good after pads came on. Physicality is a little different, playstyle is a little different. Refs let the players play, so he has to earn his stripes to get calls and just has to be better playing through contact. Focusing on staying confident and listening to coaches. Not much has changed for him, still trying to be his authentic self. Was asked about boxing practice he was seen doing. He's done that since he was a kid because his dad was a boxer and taught his siblings. Was the youngest and got beat up the most, but now he's the fourth of sixth children. Boxing helps with his cardio and being reactive with his hands to the ball + DB. Admits to struggling the first couple of days, hats off to the DB corps for making him better every single day but had his best day on Wednesday. Even the best get got. Just have to remain confident in preparation and abilities. Confidence will take you only so far, and that's where his resilience plays a factor. XL is authentic and great to have in the room. Can rely on him to be the same guy every day. They make each other better. Everybody feeds off of each other and when one person wins they all win. Happy to be a part of the receiver room. Was asked about how he was laughing harder than everybody else at XL getting his feet in the water off the back of the boat: "Man he needs to be stopped bro... He can't be serious but he was serious. It's all good." Playing against the increased amount of press he's facing in practice is helping him get more physical. His job is to catch the ball, so if it touches his hand he has to come down with it. Only catches with one hand if he needs to, but that gives the QB a bigger catch radius. Had a pregame routine where he did a 360 one-handed catch, but doesn't do it anymore. Working on being a pro: Getting into the facility early and getting treatment, eating better, etc. Just wants to win re: rookie goals. Anything he can do to help the team win. "I'm looking for to the season man and keep pounding."
    • DJ Wonnum up next Felt the defense came out ready to work at all levels and took over practice. New standard around here. Young guys have to know they're coming in to work. Last year was not the standard. Nic and Princely are fun. Different personalities but loves what they bring to the room. Sky is the limit for them. Nic sits next to Wonnum, Princeley sits next to Jones II. Allows them to be better mentors. Feels great and ready to go Incoom's athleticism allows him to bend and get low even to compensate for not being the biggest guy. Can set the edge. EDGE guys are helped when the ILBs can get home because it allows them to be a little more free while still in scheme. DB being back means his dominance is back. Can set the edge from the 3 or wherever he's at to make the runs bounce to the EDGE guys. Winning mentality and standard this year. Championship level from practice to how you live off of the field. Accept greatness and excellence with guys wanting to come to work every day. Not settling for anything less. Been in guys' shoes that are fighting for roster spots so he knows how to address them. Remembers not knowing what's next, especially as a rookie. Have a clear mind and ask the older guys a lot of questions. Has a good relationship already with Pat Jones II due to knowing each other and talking football all of the time. Can make hand gestures and know immediately what to adjust. Taking care of his body and excited to start the season. Getting it acclimated to football again by being able to tackle and bring players to the ground. Didn't know they were playing live tomorrow. Don't tell me it'll be "thud." Browns next week will allow them to hit somebody else and get a feel of what a different team is doing. Also allows the team to see where they're at on offense and defense. Ready to play football. Not worried about the QB matchup for Cleveland, going to play hard regardless of who is back there.
