What is funnier in this Panthers 1st day of mini camp article?

1- That Sam Darnold is still throwing picks, over throwing wide open guys and looking generally terrible

or

2- Matt Rhule trying to convince himself that Darnold being absolutely awful is actually a good thing

They are both downright hysterical I cant choose.

To think I actually banned and couldn’t stand you. Now you are on my top ten favorite list. You like come back player of the year. You outright called the Saleh thing too. Hit me up if I can do anything to improve your stay.

I’m just glad we don’t have to continue competing in mental gymnastics. Looks like the defense is ahead of the offense at Panthers camp.

Im sure I deserved the ban but Adam Gase drove me to madness.  Heck if u didnt get banned under the Gase regime ur not a real fan.

It is kind of amazing. Zach does well and we say don’t get excited they’re just in shorts. Sam sucks and it’s don’t worry it’s early, we just want to see progression. I think Carolina will see that rooting for Sam requires being a little delusional!

[Aaron Hernandez]

I hope we win but I wish Darnold the best. I'm glad he's getting a second chance. Nobody deserved Adam Gase

[Charlie Brown]

Yea Chris Simms who called out Zach Wilson…. Calls out Sam Darnold!!! Hehehehehe

Darnold was ruined because of Critical Gase Theory. 

I didn't have anywhere else to put this.

Rhule has this arrogance about him. It will be a pleasure to watch him crash and burn and go back to college football. Hitching your wagon to Sam Darnold, lol. What a goof.

The Jets getting 3.5 points week one is the easiest bet in my lifetime.  Actually, no.  Taking the Jets on the money line is.

Coach Saleh and this defense are going to pound Darnold inrto the dirt and he will be a turnover machine like he always is.

Place ur bet and thank me later.

[AlexVanDyke]

What’s even funnier or more pathetic actually is out media wil not cover this.  They will not point out that dam was atrocious in his first camp with us and that Zach looks 10x better.  This hard hitting MY media that takes pride in calling it like it is will conveniently not point this out.  Now if it was the other way. We’d be hearing about it as nauseum.

Hardly. It’s easy to play defense when your QB can’t play offense.

The lying begins here...

“I don’t want (Darnold) to have great days, to be honest with you, right now,” Rhule said.

You didn’t even give Joe W. Namath an upvote. What’s he gotta do? Send you some McDonalds coupons?

That’s public Rhule. Private Rhule is more like “Holy sh*t why did we get rid of Teddy?”

There is no rational reason in this world while Darnold should be handed another starting opportunity but not Trubisky.

Enjoy paying Darnold $25M next year, Punthers.

[Jetstream]

I actually think this quote is the funniest part of that article... 

Seems like in their camp they are saying the offense will be better when they have the pads on an can hit... in our camp everyone keeps saying Zach looks great, BUT it's only football in shorts.... so which is it?

Yeah, that sounds about right lol 

But still, even this early on, what a difference. Zach looks really good and the articles are about keeping calm - he's looked great but try not to get too excited just yet. And with Sam, the reports always seemed to be exactly what's in that Carolina article... "He looks pretty bad, but it's ok because..." Followed by a list of reasons why him looking bad is because of something other than him just not being very good. 

I'm loving the new excuse Rhule gave him this time. I wouldn't want Sam to look good because that would mean we weren't making it hard enough for him ? What in the f*ck is that? Here I am being an idiot thinking it would actually be a good thing if your QB did WELL when you challenged him ??‍♂️

[freestater]

The Jets have had a history of systematically destroying QBs. Add Sam to the list. He made have had potential at some point, but I think the sun has set on that. Here's hoping we buck that trend with Dimples. Best of luck, kid. 

[Augustiniak]

I like the narrative that ‘the defense won the day’.  How many times did we get that spin when darnold sucked.

How lucky for Rhule. If that's what he wants he got the right QB.

The Jets have a history of drafting terrible QBs. 

Franchise QBs can be delayed but not denied.

"Zach Wilson sputters on Day 1"

Long way to go till opening day.

The jets haven’t ‘destroyed’ qbs, they’ve drafted bad ones.  The only decent to good qb the jets have drafted (besides maybe wilson) in the past 20 yrs was Pennington, who was pretty good for the jets (until injuries derailed his career) and then was at least decent for miami.  Sanchez and geno sucked everywhere and darnold is destined to have the same trajectory.  Players are who they are.  Jamal is the same player on Seattle.

Happy days.  There's nothing finer than starting off the season 1-0.

Kind of tells you want the rest of the league thinks of Gase and the Jets. People outside the Jets genuinely believe Gase and the Jets held back Darnold. I believed it as well. This year will prove one of those two groups right.

I definitely agree -- and have often said -- that the case for Darnold is oddly devoid of praise for him (except "he's a good kid and still only 22 23 24 years old"). The case is nearly-completely based on excusing his performance on other factors. That's a red flag to me when even his biggest defenders can't or don't say why he is special. Most bad QBs in bad situations are just bad QBs.

I admit I am morbidly interested in how he looks this year, although I have already concluded he is just a bust.

Been wrong before, could be again!

[BroadwayRay]

 

This clip is pretty brutal. Darnold still throwing off his back foot and forcing throws, but why would we expect that to change?
