What would Luck's jersey number be?

[The NFL Shield At Midfield]

McCoy

Not shitting the bed in a handful of starts doesn't define "success".

Edit: nm someone got to it first

[Erik Stall]

While not watching him recently, he looked pretty decent before his injury. Maybe he came back too quick or maybe his does suck and those first few games were an aberration, but I wanted him instead of Clausen last year.

Depends on who the new HC is. If by some miracle, we get Harbaugh, then Luck would be by far the best option for the Panthers. Harbaugh + Luck could be the next generation Payton + Brees.

[Mother Grabber]

Cam Newton = Vince Young. No thanks. Luck or DT.

And like 99% of this thread, I have absolutely nothing to say about Luck's jersey number.

[Carolinator]

That's Baker.

Currently the QB numbers available are 1, 5, 13, 14, 17, 18 and 19.

no way 17

[scarface]

#53 because he will be a LB.

Dude couldnt get a single QB award? Peyton Manning won awards and got his team to the big game. Why couldnt Luck?

Manning never won a national championship, largely because he could never beat Florida.

(but then, facts have never exactly been your strong suit)

While we're at it, how many QB awards did Tom Brady win in college?

I doubt anyone here is more afraid of Andrew Luck than you. If he comes here and is as good as advertised, you won't have anything to talk about anymore.

I'm hoping 12, that way I can take my authentic Kerry Collins jersey down to the Panthers team store and have them sow a different name on the back for $40, LOL

I would have mixed feelings about him taking 12 after what we went through with Collins.

Steve Smith is by far the most marketed player on the team and most popular. His jersey has sold more than any Panther in history. Steve Smith is more important to our team than both Matt Moore & Jimmy Clausen and is more recognizable. How do you feel about Jerry Richardson basing his business off a fiery guy like Steve Smith who's beat up his teammates before? Keep in mind, JR has fired his own sons, quit his pro career over a contract dispute (money), and tanked an entire season over the CBA (money). He's not above doing low character things himself.

I'm confident that Newton is black and Luck is white and that's the only reason you feel the need to derail every single Luck thread. You've become a fuging joke here. Newton isn't the pro prospect that Luck is....period. This isn't about college accolades or even Newtons criminal history. He just doesn't project nearly as well to the pros, you don't take a chance on someone who may or may not get it with the #1 pick. I'm sorry if you take this to mean I hate black people and wear a white hood because I like everyone else here who isn't a blind racist likes Luck more.....

Id rather have the QB thats a proven winner, rather than one who's hyped solely on potential and looks.

I guess you wouldn't have wanted Josh Freeman then, since he had no quarterback awards, a losing record in college (13-18) and got blown out by Rutgers in his only bowl appearance.

[Ruff]

I just don't understand how Newton is a proven winner.

[2jakefansinva]

with the first pick in the draft.....I'd say we have to take Luck.

if we were picking between 6-10 I'd be happy that we had a shot at Newton.

that's saying that they both come out.

on the number issue..........doesn't matter, it's his choice.
