EM31 Posted January 4, 2021 Share Posted January 4, 2021 Where would we be today if we have just committed to Teddy Bridgewater and used our draft capital elsewhere? I know he is a middle of the road QB this year but i think he still has the potential to be top-10 and it wouldn't have cost us anything at all.. 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LIJetsFan Posted January 4, 2021 Share Posted January 4, 2021 At the time it was too soon to get rid of Sam but yeah I had those same thoughts....as in why are we letting a pretty serviceable QB walk. It would have cost a lot to keep him here but too much is always better than too little. Depth at QB...what a novel idea. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slimjasi Posted January 4, 2021 Share Posted January 4, 2021 I'm not the biggest fan of Teddy, but I think we would have had a better record over the last three seasons than we had with Sam. Beyond that, hard to say. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very low ceiling QB. I just looked up his numbers with Carolina.... 17th overall in QBR and yards... Just behind Ben and just ahead of Mayfield. Sam was 33rd. Given the desert we have been living in for so many years, 17th looks pretty damned good. In any event, it was just a thought 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rayzor Posted January 4, 2021 Share Posted January 4, 2021 It seems the Panthers will draft a QB. The owner did not endorse Teddy in a recent interview. His quote makes total sense imo. “It’s an ongoing process and it’s a question of who can be that guy that can help you win. That’s the most important position on the field. … Unless you have that guy for sure that gets you to playoffs and Super Bowls, you have to keep reevaluating that because that’s the only thing that matters is Super Bowls. And until you have that guy, you’re evaluating, evaluating, evaluating every year.” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FidelioJet Posted January 4, 2021 Share Posted January 4, 2021 No more band-aids, The goal is to find a top 10 QB that has you confident you can make a legitimate SB run every year. Not saying win every year - but every season you believe you have a shot. Only way to get there is to have a stud QB. We need to keep taking them until we find one. Teddy is a mid-tier that will never win a SuperBowl, No interest. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
