for SB, I got +15000 in vegas. Worth a $10 buy for a potential $1,500 payout.

I'm a film fan. Favorite pod is Now Playing. Bad Movies Rule is good.

The entire team only had 20 receiving TDs with their team leader only having 5. Man, their offense was ass that year.

SNL fans should enjoy the Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast. The premise is a review of every SNL Digital Short and what went into them, but the pod then deviates into general SNL episode-by-episode history and behind-the-scenes chatter in a casual, conversational way. A few running jokes from epi to epi between friends, and still amused the pods they did to discuss the movie Hot Rod ended up being longer than the movie itself

I didn't even realize he had over 1k as a rookie. He only found the endzone once that year.

How hard is it to find 3 things in common relative to another occurrence in any given year? Even if the trend holds true, we make the SB and lose.

I will say, I am feeling very good about staying put and landing a top wideout to really elevate this offense. We needed an offense defining type player and got that in Tet. In retrospect, I really don’t know if I would have felt as good getting Mykel/Etc and a lesser WR — sacrificing not getting a day 1 WR1 and reaching on D. Honestly, we got the same level of talent/potential in R2-3 on defense that we were gonna get in a trade down. Won’t know until we see results but it was a really smart draft strategy this year. Heck, even if we traded down, who knows maybe Golden may have been in the cards over defense.

Then the cynical part of me just felt they’ll use us as a patsy for Lamar or Josh Allen to have their redemption arc. I fuging hate Goodell and the NFL. But I love the Panthers. *sad face

I can never root for any Canadian team to win a cup even against one of my hated American teams.

His completion percentage was, but his total yardage was not, and that was with some atrocious WR play at times (though some major balling out by Thielen at times for sure). But he also had some really bad throws. His mechanics are far from perfect and NEED to improve. Receivers are no longer an excuse, either. I'm not saying he is a top 10 QB, just that in a lot of categories he was between average and just inside the top 10 in that stretch if we do things like considering his rushing as part of his production. My issue with him is we need to see within game and between game consistency. We saw some evidence of that possibility though.

I love this. It's such random things completely separated from one another that it must be true. This time we will win the SB because J-lo is finally getting exposed for who she really is and that will part the darkness on the road to glory. Keep Pounding!!!

only question left is are we playing the Bills, chiefs, ravens in the superbowl? Bills would certainly be the best in terms of just playing a cursed franchise

this is really cool, also credit to Dan for holding the Rams hostage for that pick. I'm proud he didn't sell low on it.

This is getting beyond stupid.

What the hell happened to Kyle Pitts? He looked like he was going to be one of if not the best TE of his generation when he put up over 1k yards as a rookie. Instead that looks likely to be the high water mark of his career.

Anyone go to the concert at the panthers stadium?! What an absolute treat. Haven’t seen that stadium filled up in awhile. Still loud and having fun.

...a creeping death

More about Ransom, 4th round, pick 122. I found this to be very interesting--look how they used him at Ohio State-- Some of us had him as a Strong Safety, but I just think he is a hybrid. I mean, 60% of the snaps last year he had deep safety responsibilities. In 2023, Ransom was deep 53% of snaps. Note how that transition was gradual when in 2022, where he was deep only 31% of the time-- his primary responsibilities were as a box safety who covered the slot frequently. While his first duties were that of a box safety in 2022, he evolved into a deep safety with some slot coverage abilities. He is described as very smart, and you can see how Ohio State gave him responsibilities that require a very versatile skill set and level of intelligence. I think, when all the dust settles, Ransom will be our steal of the draft. Horn is right there with him.

I find it interesting that TMac was shown here practicing without gloves. Is that a new approach to improving hands because the gloves are so sticky? If you think about the draft and evaluated the talent at each position and rate them by round, you see what the Panthers did--get the best WR in the draft. in round 2, you had WRs like Bech and Tre Harris going--meanwhile, the Panthers grabbed Scourton (late first round grade) and Princely (expected to be drafted in the middle of the second round). Bech and Harris were projected to be third rounders. If you evaluate the draft by your expectations of the performance of the talent, you are guessing and trying for clicks. However, if you understand the depth of talent at each position and align that with needs, the strategy becomes the issue--not a subjective guess. Did the Panthers address WR and Edge wisely, considering the players likely to be available? Yes. Ask yourself this: In the Panther system, is it possible that Scourton would be a better edge than Walker? I think he is a better fit. Princely? Better fit. Morgan had an excellent draft. When you see Ransom play S, you will be convinced that it was a Home Run. That pick was solid and he will be here for a long time.

Wasn't sure where to put this; can't start a new thread. Anyone paying attention to the CWS? Tarheels cruise in first two games, set up regional championship with fully rested bullpen and tons of momentum. On the road to Omaha!

Or it could be because we are building a pretty good team that is going to compete. But I expect us to win the division this year.

Now that makes much more sense.... Feel better dude! I suspect they will will be searching for trades early in the offseason though.
