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.

      The Bryce Young "Game Winning Drive" narrative needs to end

      Hey You, You Don't Know Quarterbacking

      By outlaw4 · Posted

      First off, my memory is faulty and so I should remember you. Anyways, welcome back. Having been around here since 2004/2005, I do have to say all these hot takes are not necessary new. I still very much remember all the constant complaints about Jake Delhomme. How he was too inaccurate, fumbled the ball too often, threw bad interceptions, and how Steve Smith deserved a better QB. How this franchise needed to replace Jake for someone better because he dragged everyone down. We even had names for Jake defenders; Blind Delhomme Jock Sniffers (BDJS). That one thread about Chris Weinke over Jake Delhomme because Weinke threw for 423 Yards but only scoring 13 points remains the worst hot takes I've ever seen around here. So to me, it feels like history repeating itself again and I don't feel like getting that much involved in flame wars like I used to. I am more of a sit back and see what the players/team does type of person. And even then, yes, there are so many moving parts that it's not as easy to pinpoint the core issues, especially when you're not inside the building and know every single detail.  And yes, I think even way back then, I hated how overvalued the QB position was and it hasn't gotten much better. It's to where my philosophy has shifted to where if you can't win a SB with a QB on their rookie contract, you might as well get another one. Otherwise, you have to give that QB so much money that the rest of the roster suffers and your window becomes quite narrow.  That's why I'm skeptical that Mahomes/Burrow/Jackson/Allen will win more than one or two SB's between them. None of them look as invisible as they did a few years ago and that's because their targets are much inferior and/or they are getting more roughed up behind a worse O-line.
