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.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By Tepper's Chest Hair · Posted

      Sometimes its fun to read the threads/posts.  The panthers could literally hire a groundskeeper and we'd have a thread "improving the field for no other reason to prop up Bryce Young".  Apparently no move is ever done to actually make the team better.  All a conspiracy to just focus on Bryce Young. Or suddenly daydreaming and reminiscing about Sam Darnold when he was hated more than Bryce Young.  Its really fun to do a message board search about Darnold during that time period.   Or thinking there is just a tree that grows QB, and you can just easily go up and pluck one.

      Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying.

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
