3-0 with 3 games in a row that he led a comeback win in the last minute. They would have won by 2 scores if it weren’t for a blocked FG near the end. It’s not like he’s only beating scrub teams since he joined the Bucs, last year he was the only QB to beat the lions in the regular season, and he’s the only QB that’s beaten the eagles in the last 365 days with Jalen hurts as the starter. We’d think his confidence was awesome if he played for our team and was preforming like he was.

Well if you like him so much I can direct you to a few Bucs message boards just say the word.

Weird set of rules to live by. I guess we can’t say Drew Brees was a good QB. Any other rules that I should be aware of so that I can be allowed to post here?

I mean he played like what 20 years? He's a hall of famer. Can't dispute that. Doesn't mean I was glazing him back when.

If you're a Baker fan that's your choice. Doesn't jive for me. But different strokes for different folks.

He’s playing well is all I’m saying. I promise it doesn’t make you less of a panthers fan to admit that. If you believe it does, that’s on you

It seems like Mayfield rehabbed his image in that time in LA and I thought Wilks allowed that to happen. Who knows though.

This is exactly what happened. He was 1-5 here struggling and Sam got healthy so we were benching him for Sam with Walker as the backup and he requested to be released which he did.

I have acknowledged Baker's improvement here multiple times. He was given a huge helping of humble pie here and in Cleveland to get where he is now. And as I have already said he seems to be inching back toward that arrogant version of himself a bit based on these comments.

You quoted me and took issue with that. That's on you.

      2026 World Cup Thread

      By Joe Bear · Posted

      Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.

      Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly.

      Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
