Man what could have been

Kraken was a beast for a 6th rounder, too bad he is also bat poo crazy

I dont see the point for either side really.... Rodgers is not good enough in his current state to win them anything. He is already a HoF QB so dont see the reason for him ether.... Will he really be any better for them than Wuss was last season? Dont really care because fug the steelers, but they could have just started whatever poo QB and picked high next season in a QB draft.

She gotta a bertiful spirt. I guess it is him. Can't wait for the video.

So the Steelers will suck this year

I feel like Jalen Milroe is this year's Anthony Richardson, but he was drafted in the third round with no plans for him to start his first year. He has a much better chance to make it. They thought AR was going to learn to pass in the NFL by being a staring running qb who cannot keep a defense honest. It should not be a surprise that he is struggling and picking up injuries.

Part of this is us getting old I feel like, no offense. No artist has the power to destroy a genre in my opinion, and if they do, I would kinda like to see it, haha. If groups like Public Announcement could have a hit like Body Bumpin' back in the day, and nothing really happen, I think we will be just fine. People like what they like. It doesn't really cause any damage to any other lane. It's all evolution and paving the way. Some of it we like, some of it we don't. It's not like if somehow Glorilla was all over the radio or playing in the grocery store, it would stop you from listening to Immortal Technique. The table is vast, everyone can eat.

At this point it isn't even debatable. The first two games of the season last year loom large. Not just Bryce that extends across the roster to all the starters. Opening the season again with back to back road games. The starters need a significant amount of preseason reps.

Music and sex have been intertwined for decades I'm not speaking against that in itself. But that's a different subject from a discussion of quality. It's not just a problem limited to female artists. There are quite a few newer artists I like across hip hop and under other subgenres. But I avoid the copycat rappers who just spam auto tune like the plague. Much of this now is an effect of social media and the lines being blurred between glorified influencers who basically want to show you anything and everything and actual artists. I don't make it my mission to talk down on anyone I take the same approach as you and just don't listen. But this thread was directly Panthers related therefore I had an opinion. We're just going to have to agree to disagree regarding some mainstream rappers destroying the genre. I can tell you right now as far as real lyricists and top notch production there isn't much legitimate competition out there. It's actually comical. And going even beyond that where lyricism isn't necessarily a prerequisite there are still vastly superior artists now and from the past. Thankfully I've discovered a number of stellar rappers and producers (some do both simultaneously which is even more impressive) who are outside the mainstream over the years and it is factually night and day. I know I'm not alone in making this distinction. But at the end of the day. To each their own.

I don’t see an issue with fit in his playstyle. I just don’t think he has it upstairs to win in the postseason. Maybe I’m wrong and it’s just the Toronto stink. But from what I’ve seen those 4 guys are more of the problem than not. And he’s been a big part of that. Zero game breaking ability in the postseason. But if we sign him I’ll obviously hope for the best l.

I think he fits, he's a two way player and had over or around 50 hits last season. Also I'm just going off what I heard. I can say he's definitely the top target FA wise, there are others via FA and trades that are also high on the list. They will go through the top players at every position and run the phones ragged trade wise.

Right and we don't even have to leave the same subgenre to see far superior lyricists. La Chat and Gangsta Boo are pioneers of southern hip hop that paved the way for the Glorilla's and Cardi B's.

I don't know much about her music. I just didn't understand calling it horrible, because I listen to rap, and it's not like she has terrible flow for example. Plenty of male rappers delve into the sex side of things. I remember back in the 90's guys like Ma$e and Cam'ron had album covers with their shirt off for whatever reason. Didn't stop me from bumpin the album. I prefer the lyricist too, but I don't hate on the others. I just don't listen. I am not defending her personally at all, just the idea that female rappers should be held to some higher standard. Once I no longer enjoy the music or message, I just put it down. If I like something, I am passionate about it. For example, 2023 was the last Grey Day for me, as G59 has sold out completely and gone against everything they stood for. I don't say Scrim and Ruby are destroying the genre, though lol.

Will canales play bryce?

Veiled sexism? Who said anything about hate? Let's be adults here. That's an issue with your own perception. And there are a number of other current female rappers who are legitimately talented lyricists. I make my own conscience choice to seek out those artists instead because they showcase actual talent. I'm not stopping anyone from making the music they want to. And I assure you the artists in question you are getting defensive over are making money regardless they will be just fine so you can come on down off the soapbox before you sprain an ankle or something. Appreciate the input.

Live video of Bryce in a game:

I don't listen to the music, but I also don't hate on things that are just not for me. Women just seem to be getting into their aggressive sexualization and gangster type rap. Saying it is horrible just because you don't like it is not very open minded. Let women do whatever they want in my opinion. Obviously there is a market for it. Why hate the player? I feel this is just veiled sexism.

Exactly. It is sad.

It's early to say anything about these guys' durability. Cam was the biggest tank in the league who would never miss a snap until he wasn't. TD missed 3 seasons due to ACL tears and his career was written off and then he became an absolute ironman.

Horrible would be an improvement. Most current female rappers are basically onlyfans thots behind a microphone. Listen to Lauryn Hill with The Fugees and then try to listen to that. Talk about destroying a genre.

Steelers don't exactly have much offensive talent or great coaching on that side of the ball but I do think people are overlooking Rodgers and he'll do way better there than he did in NY. Honestly think the Steelers can win a playoff game with him, something they haven't done in a decade. Realistically don't think they can contend for a Super Bowl and beat teams like the Chiefs or Eagles, but I do think they can improve on the trash QB play they've had since Big Ben fell off and then retired.

All this for a guy who's basically Joe Flacco at this point.

It always seemed inevitable, especially after the Steelers didn't draft a QB until the 6th round. Seemed very obvious that their starter wasn't currently on the roster and there was too much smoke there to ignore what was ultimately going to happen.
