Can’t deny Douglas had a sound plan (unlike McCagnan and Tannenbaum), but so do Idzik. It’s all dependent on Wilson and his draft picks working out (along with Saleh). 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mayfield will see a LOT of time under center this year regardless. But yes, I do anticipate Mayfield being named the Week 1 starter and not looking back. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Legend Killa7 Posted July 28, 2022 Share Posted July 28, 2022 Personally rooting for Sam. Always liked him and wanted it to work out with him here. Mayfield is just a jerk.

Doggin94it Posted July 28, 2022 Share Posted July 28, 2022 It's hard to overstate the extent to which I don't care, even the tiniest little bit, who ends up the starting QB on an NFC team we don't play this year and isn't a rival. Sam's gone. Move on. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big_Slick Posted July 28, 2022 Share Posted July 28, 2022 Panthers refused to pay Baker 5 million, made him take 4.85 million and have him eat 3.5 million of his guaranteed salary. Panthers are NOT in love with Baker or they wouldn't have taken such a hard line, possibly losing him. Baker walked into a great situation - stacked team - and produced one good season with one wildcard win. Darnold walked into the Jets and even most of the guys who hate him will admit he's never had any talent to work with. But I know - Darnold would suck if he was surrounded by HOF'ers. Darnold took the reps w/the ones today and Mayfield will get them tomorrow so it seems to be a fair comp setup by Rhule. Side by side Darnold is the better QB and will start the season. Now - back to our MILF loving wonder boy who'll surely outperform both of those clowns in Carolina. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jetstream23 Posted July 28, 2022 Share Posted July 28, 2022 Has there ever been a more, "Throw spaghetti at the wall and see what sticks!" approach to trying to find a starting QB than what's going on in Carolina? Do they really think they might be able to find out one of these guys is who the NFL actually thought he was on Draft night, fix him, rehabilitate his football career, and be good to go? Or, are they just putting off a tank for another year? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I Would not be surprised if he is working back channels to land back in college. I agree mayfield is starting barring injury. If it goes south quickly, I could see rhule bailing on these guys which would be ironic since he caused the chaos. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
