I feel that the whole Tepper is to involved in running the team thing was greatly overblown. IMO, Tepper's biggest mistake was hiring bad coaches and bad GM's to run things. So far at least, results under Morgan and Canales appear to be better, but we will see.

100% vs 90% isn't a massive difference or disadvantage. 2 million won't make or break a team

All I know is that the game is a lot more interesting when running backs arent an afterthought.

So just like all the things you constantly attempt to "read between the lines" with and post said opinions pretending they are stone cold facts?

Its not hard to figure out teams overcompensate to try and stop whatever the current fad is and right now everyone GOT SMALLER AND FASTER on defense, the pendulum is simply swinging back to what that defenses weakness is.

Who here remembers this one? Two and a half years ago following what was one of the ugliest displays of QB play any Panthers or Saints fan had witnessed in many years. Not one person here would have been wanting to sign Andy Dalton to a contract. But once he signed with the Panthers and became Bryce Young's backup suddenly the narrative changed. Now somehow Panthers fans regard him as a top backup. Comical.

I get what you're saying but I'm a proponent of drafting the best players and then getting them into camp and figuring out where they fit. Passing a better player for a better "fit" just isn't a good idea. That's how you end up drafting Sam Bowie over Michael Jordan because you already had Clyde Drexler on the roster.

I am guessing that he signs for 4 years, $8.4m with $6m guaranteed. I do not see Morgan giving in easily, and these players are losing leverage. I am a Scourton fan and I see him as a real sleeper pick who will be a better pro than college player. They may need to address the rookie salary scale to include caps on guaranteed money--

It looks like the team agrees with you to some extent: TMac and Jimmy Horn Jr both provide a dynamic X as well as a slot, which allows XL to be the Z which might be a better fit for him. Ja'Tavion Sanders was drafted for his receiving chops as a TE. Jonathon Brooks was one of the better pass catching RBs in his draft class. I don't think Ladd makes any sense because the team had several slot WRs already and he's never going to be a perimeter guy which was what the team had lacked Bryce's rookie year. Adam Thielen was already signed as well. Ladd does make much more sense than throwing away Andy Dalton in the name of "competition" though, I'll give you that.

Nice shouldn’t be long now

ECU baseball is like a farm team for the transfer portal but good players go through there too. Coastal is definitely better though. ECU football was good when I was a kid. Relatively speaking. It’s been a wasteland for a while.

Sunbelt. Along with App State. Also, ECU is about an 1.5 hours away from Wilmington. Football is down but dang their tailgates are amazing

Oh I remember icky from way back on the scout boards before the huddle guy was always like that.

Ummm no definitely not pre benching... maybe go read my posts instead of mouth breathing. I was... not a fan last year to say the least.

Heading into year 3 I think that the mentorship angle is overstated. At this point the simple reality is Andy Dalton is terrible. The Panthers org dragged out a sprained thumb to the point you'd think they were on the verge of amputation. That is how badly they never wanted to see him back on the field. A little competition in the QB room goes a long way and makes everyone better. For the team with the worst win percentage in all of sports the last few years you'd think it'd be something we'd want to prioritize. Instead we chose comfort. You know what else is known for comfort? Charmin bath tissue. We'll see how these decisions work out over the coming months. Hopefully our starting QB slams the door on these conversations. But nothing is a given.

I'm glad Adam came back I think this is going to be a special season

The main focus has and rightfully so been to create an environment built around developing Bryce. Adding another young QB to develop would take away reps and attention from our coaching staff away from Bryce. Dalton serves as the perfect backup due to the fact he is highly experienced, is a good mentor to have in the room and is not threatening Bryce for his job. With how much we invested in Bryce it only makes sense to create the best environment possible to help our return on investment. I’m assuming after this year we will move on from Dalton, until then we have one of the best backup QBS in the league.

I believe the Niners think they copied the Eagles formula but the Niners roster isn’t as good. We will see this season for sure with CMC coming back.

What conference is Coastal Carolina in?

Wild West Extravaganza is a fun one if you enjoy 19th century western history

I've seen a lot of charges for both human and animal by medical professionals that basically just boil down to "because we can "

Damm! I agree with with CRA. Damm!!!

I feel like it’s been too long since anybody said it, so I’ll refresh the sentiment once again: fug the Texans.

Started going to stand for animals. An annual check up with a few shots should not be almost 400 dollars. Use to go to Wilkinson animal hospital and bounced the fug out when they got bought by someone else
