We may not even play ANY football next season if there is no CBA. We would still get the number 1 draft pick again.

Luck is not the only QB coming out that can help us win.

Coaching and playcalling was more of a problem last year than QB play.

We can still compete without drafting a QB with proper coaching and support personnel.

It is not the end of the world.

No, they probably wouldn't.

Luck isn't the only QB coming out, but he's by far the best.

Coaching and playcalling is already being fixed and QB remains a huge problems.

They can win more games, 2-3 more, but they won't compete in the NFC South.

No it's not the end of the world, but can you blame us for getting upset when the best QB prospect in a long time decides to stay in school instead of coming to an area that desperately needs him?

Look we can't compete in the NFC south and Ryan, Brees and Freeman without a QB and we don't have one. Clausen is at best a .500 QB he was in college and always will be. The Panthers are doomed to Lions, Browns, status now except the lions have a QB if he stays healthy.

This. I've always overlooked the rage of fans, but I think a little rage and extreme disappointment is justified in this case. No player is ever a 100% sure thing, but coaches and scouts agreed universally that Luck was the best QB in the prospective class and one of the best QB's to play college ball in the past years. So yes, this is major disappointment. Add to the fact that in Panthers history, it is extremely rare for us to do this poorly. Hopefully we continue it being extremely rare, but the stars seemed to align for us finally for once. And then it all came crashing down with JR being a bit of a dick and then Luck staying in college. This is absolutely a big disappointment.

What's the worst is that scouts agree that the rest of the QB class is mediocre or risky. The chance of finding a franchise QB in the 2011 draft is now suddenly much more difficult, if possible at all.

My money says we invest in WR or DT. End of story.

I still support Clausen (how many Clausen supporters are left? Maybe three or four of us?) He was forced to become a starter his first year and he wasn't ready. I think he will develop well very if he gets his head in the game and gets tutoring from a good HC and a good QB coach. He's gotten better rapport with the rookie WR's. As they develop, he'll develop. Hopefully their age will allow them to develop together. The preseason should shed some light on how Clausen is. I hope for the best.

You can only get upset about things you can control. This clearly is not something we could have controlled. Some people are saying we should throw the farm at Harbaugh so we could get Luck. That is silly. You think the Steelers or Patriots would do that? No way, especially not for $7 million for a coach that has never coached in the pros. I would have liked to see the Harbaugh/Luck combo, but you can't mortgage your future on guys that haven't coached or thrown a pass in the NFL.

Everyone take a deep breath...everything will be just fine.

Brees, Ryan, Freeman > Clausen, breath all you want, doesn't change facts we're screwed.

    • With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.
    • Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.
    • Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
