Mentor for our QB's

We obviously need one whether we draft Luck or not. I've thought about what kind of traits a mentor would need.

1) He should have some talent so that he could start a few games while our young QB gets the hang of the offense.

2) He should come here knowing that offering help to our young QB is his main job and that he will be the backup when the time comes to pass the torch.

3) Should be an QB that has had some measure of success but is no longer a viable every week starter.

Some QB's that might fit that criteria:

Charlie Batch

Jon Kitna

Byron Leftwich

Marc Bulger

and i hate to mention it:

Jake Delhomme

There are others that i missed but i think the backup Qb will be just as important as who starts for us next year.

God this is such a tough question to answer for:A) the boobies were extremely distracting, and very nice, and B) Great question and PantherFool and be sure to check in next time for my answer. Thanks again caller...

umm...couldn't agree more, but shouldn't you put in Kerry Collins into the qb pool? we have to think about places that are going to clean house to see if we can get any good back ups anywhere. What if Chad Pennington doesn't retire? I like Marc Bulger a lot as a possible back up.

      BREAKING: Panthers interested in Justin Simmons

      By Icege · Posted

      While it's fair to question how impactful a player's relationship with a coach is (especially if someone has questions regarding said coach), it's important to also evaluate the difference between the players here. Jordan Fuller was pick #199 in the 6th round while Justin Simmons was #98 in the 3rd round. Jordan Fuller might have gotten a Super Bowl ring while he was with the Rams, but he got it while on the IR. Justin Simmons, on the other hand, is a x2 Pro-Bowler (2020, 2023), x4 second-team All-Pro (2019, 2021 - 2023), and was the NFL co-leader in INTs (2022). Simmons has also fallen off in the last couple of seasons though, grade-wise. He very well might not be that same player, which could be why the Falcons have elected to replace him with Fuller. As far as getting the best out of what he has, asking him to produce with a starting DL of A'Shawn Robinson (63.56% of the defense's snaps), LaBryan Ray (51.48%), and Shy Tuttle (50.08%) isn't reasonable. Wonnum only played in 8 games, but had the second most % of snaps (37.27%) at EDGE behind Clowney (53.53%). The second-string DL based on snap % was... and don't read this if you just ate... Charles Harris (34.48%), DeShawn Williams (27.67%), and Nick Thurman (19.7%). The second-string EDGEs based on snap count would be DJ Johnson (32.27%) and Cam Gill (18.14%). With the investments made in the run defense this season though, especially on the defensive line, it's more than fair to demand a complete turn around from last season.
