ESPN's Benjamin Solak on Panthers QB situation

Carolina will almost certainly pursue a quarterback alternative this offseason. It probably won't fully punt on Young, as he's still on a cheap contract and not prohibitively bad at the position, as shown by the Panthers' 5-5 record this season. (Dave Canales really is doing a wonderful coaching job, if you ask me.)

I don't think you'll get Trevor Lawrence out of Jacksonville, but the idea of a veteran retread for Carolina is extremely attractive to me. As was well covered when he was hired, Canales was part of Geno Smith's rehabilitation in Seattle and Baker Mayfield's in Tampa Bay. This offense is plug-and-play ready for a functional veteran, with a strong offensive line and a budding elite receiver in Tetairoa McMillan.

Kyler Murray is the obvious name for this upcoming offseason, as his time in Arizona seems all but over. You know who loves to funnel targets to a star No. 1 receiver and has the sort of pocket fearlessness that Smith and Mayfield both displayed? Mac Jones.

Is he under contract with the 49ers in 2026? Yes. But we'll cross that bridge when we get there. He would be a good fit.

Not taking anyone seriously that leans into Murray being a fix. Mac Jones would be fine in free agency but not in a trade IMO. 

I just want to see who is available and what Young does once they tell him mm they aren't picking up his 5th year option. Im still hoping he ask for a trade and we can all close out that chapter of pain.

Still intrigued about giving Trey Lance a shot.  He will be a FA and not too expensive. 

See that sounds a lot more approachable. Still not sold on him but taking a long look should absolutely be on the table. I also think he will do another prove it deal to earn a spot

      Either way there's some tough teams on the schedule this year, on paper anyways.

      Same. I would prefer a MNF game earlier in the season. As if more likely has some significance in case things go south this season. If we perform well enough we could even get another game forced to a Sunday night spot later in the season.

      Wanted to jump into this thread. Although I do not post anymore I do look in as there are a few old friends around. Loved hearing some of the names you mentioned.  Another  oldie is NanceUSMC.  He is the one who got me here from the old Observer forum.  Good guy and smart football guy. I have learned a lot from a lot of good Huddlers over the years, Over time. we have sadly lost a few who left this earth too soon.  Anyone who know of someone, it would be nice to try to make a list.  One of the more recent, CosmoGirl,  was someone that kind of hit hard.  Life sucks sometimes. Some of the best times were when we had our own tailgate and could meet up in person.  I think it made us better. Several dedicated volunteers, lead by LiverMush, started setting things up in the wee hours of each gameday morning.  Don't know all those regulars but I remember JakeFlake was one.  For you newbies...each game,  a Huddler (or a group) sponsored the food for each tailgate.  Eating was free but a donation was asked for.  At the end of the year those donations were used to buy bicycles for Toys for Tots.  Over the years Huddlers bought a lot of new bikes for kids for Christmas.  (I am guessing a couple of hundred each year.)  We had a good time getting together, got to make friends in person, and then got to feel like you were doing something good. It was truly a community. I got to meet Dan Morgan at one of our tailgates...he brought pizza from his restaurant.  How many of you remember that?  Glad the restaurant did not make it....lol. Not only have people changed, and come and gone.....but the entire nature and purpose has changed. Nothing lasts forever and we move on but we still like to think about good times. Same reason we take pictures. Want to ask a question I have not seen anyone else mention......who remembers    "The Couch" ?  We have argued, laughed, lived the ups and downs of football and dealt with a little real life along the way.  A thanks to  the Mods who keep this going.  I am sure they sacrifice a lot of their time out of love for the forum and the Panthers. Take care my friends and be well.  I will close with my new favorite quote which I think is greatly needed in these difficult times.
