SCBills Posted July 28, 2022 Share Posted July 28, 2022 Baker has a chance at being a 10-15 range QB. Darnold looks to be destined in a backup role. Plus, you've got to give Baker that Week 1 shot against Cleveland... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stuvian Posted July 28, 2022 Share Posted July 28, 2022 My money is also on Mayfield. He has something to prove. The Panthers should start him vs the Browns for the season opener for the epic revenge upset. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Info Posted July 28, 2022 Share Posted July 28, 2022 Gotta be Mayfield. Makes GM 1 (Browns at Panthers) must watch football. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. WEO Posted July 28, 2022 Share Posted July 28, 2022 Mayfield by a million miles. But Carolina HC/FO are known morons so who knows.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt he sees the QB position as Darnold's job to lose. Based on what we have seen in the past seasons , we can guess Mayfield will win the job. But it will important to see if he can run McAdoo's offense. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Logic Posted July 28, 2022 Share Posted July 28, 2022 Are we talking about 2023 Bills 2nd string quarterback Sam Darnold? Keenum's a free agent after this year. Darnold's a free agent after this year. Unless some team out there is willing to give Darnold a shot at winning a starting job in '23, I could see him going the Trubisky route and signing for a cheap deal to play behind his good friend Josh Allen and try to rehabilitate his value.

Rocky Landing Posted July 28, 2022 Share Posted July 28, 2022 I'm probably one of the few who thinks Darnold is going to win this competition going into week one. (Which is not to say that he won't get benched as the season progresses.) I think Mayfield's abilities, and Darnold's inabilities are both overstated. Mayfield has always been surrounded by talent, and Darnold has been surrounded by crap. It will be interesting to see how this plays out now that they're on an even playing field, so to speak. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Punching Bag Posted July 28, 2022 Share Posted July 28, 2022 1 hour ago, Warcodered said: Mayfield is the more proven starter, but Darnold does have a headstart in the system I think. In Cleveland they brought Van Pelt, Aaron Rodgers' favored coach, in to work with Mayfield. Van Pelt tore down all Mayfield knew about being a QB, had his ability to option plays taken away and taught him how to read defenses. He changed his footwork to increase his accuracy to a professional QB level. He worked with him on technique, play designs and understanding the playbook. If Mayfield maintains the changes he worked on with Alex and has a good attitude about this (!! I got away from the Browns 💩 !!) he will be successful. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haha. I already know what they are saying over in Carolina— just got to surround him with a great running and playaction game, get CMC healthy, maybe add one more elite receiver to give him more “weapons.” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it has more to do with his knowledge of the offense. playbook and rapport with the receivers. I think mayfield is the better qb and will be the soon to be starter, but not to start the season. jmo obv 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffalo Boy Posted July 28, 2022 Share Posted July 28, 2022 Matt Corral by week 11-14. Darnold and Mayfield aren’t getting the job done. MacAddoodoo was decidedly anti Mayfield predraft. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ColoradoBills Posted July 28, 2022 Share Posted July 28, 2022 Carolina's passing stats last year were atrocious. 58% completion rate with 14TDs and 21 INTs with 52 sacks. Baker is much better than that. If McCaffrey can stay health and Baker plays out the year it's about a .500 team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is their best player by such a wide margin....but his health has taken a 2 year hiatus and it seems to be enjoying the vacation....

All true but you can't overstate how bad their QB play has been in the last 4 years with Newton, Kyle Allen, Bridgewater and Darnold. For my money that's been the real problem. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
