00:00 The battle for QB one in Carolina continues as the Panthers head into their second week of training camp
00:05 I'm glad at Montana Patterson with SI right now and joining me is Skyler Callahan from all Panthers
00:10 Skyler Panthers head coach Matt rule said last week that he is not close to making a decision on who will be the starter for
00:17 Week one where things stand as of today
00:20 Yeah, I mean they they aren't close at all to making a
00:25 Naming a quarterback for this job and honestly it kind of caught me by surprise because even though the the outside noise has been
00:32 You know
00:33 This is going to be Baker's job and Scott Federer the GM the head coach Matt rule been saying this is going to be an
00:38 Open competition. I didn't buy that. I just felt like this was Baker's job to lose. That's not been the case
00:43 They've been flip-flopping reps with the ones every other day and to be honest with you. There's not been much separation
00:49 These two are very tight
00:50 They have ups they have downs and there's really not a whole lot of momentum from either side. So this really is a true quarterback competition
00:57 One that I did not expect to take place
01:00 Of course, it would seem that Baker may feel doesn't necessarily have the advantage heading into this season because he was just traded
01:06 Sam Donald already knows the playbook. How does he seem like he's adjusting? He's adjusting good just good
01:12 I think they're in the fourth phase of this install for Baker. So there's still a lot that he has to get
01:18 You know get down and obviously still developing that chemistry with the receivers and the offensive line
01:23 So there's still a lot for him to learn and I think you're really gonna see
01:27 his most important part come in those first two preseason games because I think that's because that's where a
01:33 Little separation can occur whether that be from his side or from Sam side as well
01:38 So, I don't know if we'll see a starter named in the first two preseason games
01:42 It might even go into that third and final preseason game before we know who's gonna be in that week one lineup
