I did a quick search for a thread specifically about Pat White and didn't find anything, so I wanted to let it be known that I think we should target Pat White as the next QB for the Carolina Panthers after Jake leaves. At the least, he could be our project, and I think he will be well worth it. Over the last two years, I got to see a lot of Pat White, and I have always felt he IS a QB. I think now was the appropriate time to address this, especially after his Senior Bowl performance. That TD pass demonstrated some outstanding accuracy, and I've seen him do it in games before. That's why I've never understood why people said they felt he couldn't be a QB in the pros.

I did see someone posted a couple weeks ago that we were actually looking at Pat White and someone else in the Senior Bowl practices. So, that got me even more excited about the prospects of getting White - that we are actually looking at him. I know Jake is our QB, and he will be for the foreseeable future, but I think we should take a hard look at the future. Jake gives us our best chance to win despite the implosion against the Cards. If he can recover mentally from that, I think he will have a huge year next year. But, I think White is a guy we can bring in and develop as THE QB behind him yet, we could still utilize him at other positions until he's ready to takeover. In both aspects, I think he could make a HUGE contribution to our team. GET ON THE PAT WHITE BANDWAGON!

Well, I can't really say that I'm on the Pat White bandwagon, but he sure as hell impressed me when he beat my Heels in the tire bowl. I was worried about him beating us with his legs, but he was making NFL quality throws throughout that whole game.

The question is...can he do that consistently? You can't just go by one good game.

White is a pretty good QB, I don't think he has a cannon, but he makes decent decisions and yes, can run like the wind. He's better at passing than the average scrambler, and he's far far better than Travaris Jackson. We were looking at him at the senior bowl so if he falls some we could wind up getting him. Think about a guy like him, he has to be accounted for on each play. So you have our RB's, Smith, and him, it's going to be hard ona defense.

I approve of this message! :D

Although he will be a project for the first 3 years I think he can make it in the NFL. There are questions about his size 5'9"-6'1" and he does need to learn to read defensives better. He is a lefty but his max arm is about 40-50 yards. He also has some durabilty issues but if he bulks up I think it will help him.

He is the most poised QB I have seen in a long time. He hardly ever loses his temper and he has the swagger to lead a team. He is acurate most of the times and he can zing a ball in a small area.

I think he contribute in the wildcat formation the first couple of years and then in his third year he should be ready to play the whole game.

      Can we get to 9-8?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      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.

      Eight of Bryce Young's nine wins have come off game-winning drives

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      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.

      Trade Chuba?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      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.
