Here's hoping Edwards gets a start at QB this year

they did... which is why I am hesitant that either of them will do well. To be honest, I think Armanti has a better chance because I think he is physically gifted in a way that would allow him to extend plays. However, his height is a concern for me; people say "it's just an inch" but every bit of it matters.

I'm not saying don't give him a shot, and I'm not saying we have a great option on the roster, just saying I don't have high expectations and hearing that he is better than Vick before he's played at all kinda annoys me.

Our QB performance would get worse? You really just said that? How is that possible?

They would have to change the play calling to suit his abilities since he hasn't been practicing under center in a run first offense, and I know the creativity involved is beyond our coaching staff. But with both our starting runners out, they have to do something.

You really think our staff makes a gameplan to play to our players strength? I mean once stewart goes out they keep mike goodson running up the middle non stop....etc...

Exactly what do you want them to do to adjust the playcalling and take advantage of our strengths and playmakers?? Run the fuging triple option....

You're just being obtuse.

If they run him out of the shotgun it minimizes the vision problem with his height and gives him more room to throw over extended arms, while running quicker developing routes. They don't have to run him in an option at all. The kid can throw with accuracy and strength, those attributes were never an issue.

Right but running out of the shotgun spread formation works oh so well in the NFL. Slow developing run plays don't work on a consistent basis in the NFL. See almost every third down draw we have ever run for proof. So by playing out of the shotgun you have essentialy negated some of our biggest weapons....

I don't think anyone here wants him to be any less then Steve Smith or Desean Jackson reincarnated' date=' but he isn't a QB in the NFL and our QB performance would get much worse with him under center. Did the kid even take snaps under center his entire career at App.....[/quote']taking snaps under center is overrated. sure, it's good to be able to do it, but it isn't necessary.

Who Goodson? Those biggest weapons are hurt last I checked. They don't have to run him out of the shotgun all the time, you know, just more than twice a game on 3rd and 25.

so let me get this straight:

If the Panthers are able to abandon their offensive philsophy, completely change their scheme, redo most of their plays, and get some guy who had been getting reps at WR in at QB, we'll succeed? this is mid season, remember.

because that's about what you guys are suggesting.

If Edwards can't be under center, he can't be an every down QB in THIS offense right now.

So they pass from the shotgun and run from under center.....yea the opposing defense would never get the clue....

      I think the same thing, they don’t have any better options especially since Christiansen is out for the year

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By JawnyBlaze · Posted

      It wasn’t completely his fault, but outside of two throws and one or two scrambles he didn’t do much to help. His accuracy was all over the place, numerous passes that were placed poorly and didn’t give the receiver a good chance to catch the ball or do anything with it after. He also continues to display terrible pocket awareness. Even the sacks could have been avoided, they weren’t immediate like the pressure we got on Shough at times. Bryce just often has no feel for pressure and stands there waiting to get sacked after numerous seconds have passed.

      I really fuging hate this era in so many ways.  I look at those Adin Ross and Neon kids, and I just wonder why tf are they famous?  Why would anyone be desperate enough to gain THAT audience that they’d risk money, career, disciplinary action to go up there and associate with those fuging dweebs?  And back in my day, racist peers got their ass beat.  And not endorsing or approving bully culture, but checks and balances and all…  had those two been bullied, or at the very least humbled, they wouldn’t be famous and glorified for being the fuging idiots they are now.  It seriously pisses me off… they both have done and said multiple, openly racist stuff and major media keeps pushing them, talking about them, and propping them up… and then dummies like Puka who don’t need the platform or exposure lend their celebrity to them.  fuging idiot… and even the other streamers, I don’t get - Speed, Kai…  I don’t understand making nobodies famous at all, but there is at least entertainment value to some degree there, and I could see how young, impressionable kids would find them something to aspire to (sadly), or view as “cool.”  But Ross and Neon?  They’re just shitty, shitty nerds with big ass mouths. I’ve went back recently and watched some classics (in two very different eras and categories 😂)  like Robocop and Idiocracy.  And what I find fascinating is how both movies illustrate how stupid society became by showing what the citizenry is entertained by.  In both, society became anti-intellectual and the citizenry were entertained by lowest denominator, primal-type absurdity - poo like, “Ouch! My Balls!”  Or on Robocop, a guy is a watching a show where they are smashing cakes on ladies’ breasts and then a guy says a line as the camera zooms in like, “I’d buy that for a dollar!” and the audience thinks it’s hilarious.  That’s where I feel like we are now.  Like who watches that clip with Puka and thinks any of that poo is funny or cool?  If I was Puka, I’d honestly be wondering why tf I’m hanging out with these beta ass, racist, cretin ass weirdos.
