I for one love your drive by moronic posts, dont change

The same ppl who say he needs more help are the same ppl who bitch about the defense. You keep getting him more help, the defense will not get any better.

Yea we can ill afford to NOT resign Corbett and have him sit on IR all season. Im sure we can find average guard depth if he manages to get away.....

He is UFA? I would probably list him over Corbett. I was gonna say we don’t have one though. We can get along without all of them. Nijman gives us some contunuity.

I am aware, I'm simply saying he won't be getting a big contract. He will probably have to play the 2027 season on a prove it deal, because I'm pretty sure he won't play this year.

Hes probably played his last down as a panther unless hes willing to sign a one year vet min prove it deal season after next, yes quoted time is 6 to 12 months but for a 320 pound man thats definitely leaning to the later stage. It sucks for ickey but chances are hes cooked.

30% isn’t 0%. As I said, up in the air. And we will be trying a new LOT this year, wherever it comes from. I haven’t really looked at FA or the draft to say.

This isn't a run of the mill Injury less than 30% of players who have it return to form, I wouldn't count on a 320 pounder being one of them.

Not sure what he said but, given my (very low) expectations for Bryce in this game he played very well honestly the first game I've seen that mattered for more than moral were he consistently went down feild.

This I think defense wins it for Seattle and Houston

Cade Mays for me.

Carolina Panthers: IOL Austin Corbett The Panthers are on an upward trajectory after winning the NFC South in only Dave Canales’ second season. Another silver lining is that most of the team’s core should be back in 2026, with few significant free agents. At the same time, retaining Corbett could be shrewd. Corbett produced a 65.4 PFF overall grade in 2025, playing 689 snaps between center, right guard and left guard. He particularly shined up the middle: In the six games in which he exclusively played center, Corbett commanded a 73.7 PFF overall grade with a 77.9 PFF run-blocking grade. The Panthers possess a top-notch guard tandem in Damien Lewis and Robert Hunt, but the versatile Corbett is still depth that Carolina has consistently relied upon.

I’d be pretty shocked if he got a HC job.

I don't know if I've every heard someone use the word, "Propaganda" and not mean it in a negative context. The same goes for phrases like "agents of the organization" or "drinking the kool-aid". Even if you're not, it comes across as negative and insulting to Stew. He's never been the type of person to be critical of individuals. Just not his style. Doesn't mean he's trying to pull a fast one, mislead you, or outright lying. Should employees of the Panthers be objective when interacting with fans? Is that even reasonable?

Bussi in net!

No, both instances of references to the defense were specific to the run defense. I should have said "run defense" the 2nd time. You admit there has been ample personal issue but then use those stats to support your argument. I'm not arguing on the effectiveness of his specific scheme overall. I'm saying he is only now getting the proper personal to run his scheme. The stats are the stats and while I don't disagree with any of what you're saying, 3 years of those stats are based on the Panthers front office not giving him the tools to run a competitive NFL defense until this year with D. Brown getting healthy and the additional of Tre'von Moehrig. I want to see his defense when we don't have multiple key starter positions manned with players who would IMHO are not starting level players. With some talent I say all this while not being a big fan of his scheme. I would prefer a 4-3 but that's neither here or there. And yes, I would call getting requests and interviews from other teams who want to hire him good evidence that he may be a pretty good DC and has a lot of potential as a HC. In 2022 he had HC requests from the Broncos, Colts, and Texans. He also had requests for DC from the Vikings, Falcons and the Panthers. We hired him to be our DC. In 2023 it was the Falcons, Raiders and Seahawks for a HC position. In 2024 the Falcons, Seahawks and the Panthers interviewd him for HC. We blocked the Jags from a DC interview. In 2025 (which is this years hiring cycle) so far its the Falcons, Raiders and just today the Steelers, all for the HC position.

The Giants still may be crap but they just improved somewhat by hiring Harbaugh,

Yeah I was almost going to mention the finger but he did so well last week after whatever they did to it at halftime I let it go. It could get hit and messed up worse, it is a weak point. Weather and home field crowd in Chicago are huge challenges no doubt. I can’t really be confident in LA but the inexperience of Chicago in a game with this stuff at stake is likely to be a factor, enough to make it hard to be confident in them. So who knows….

Your last sentence is the only one that matters. Until the team is ready to give up and move on you will have to watch him out there struggling to make 200 yrds/gm.

And they are cake compared to the HC gig. Paid vacation. Mandatory attendance, but still a relative vacation. I saw where Tomlin met with his players and told them he did not want to coach any other group. Was emotional. So I would say that puts him out of the race at least for this year. Or if he isn’t it paints him as a hypocrite.

Stroud was pressured like hell against Pittsburgh and they are a FAR better pass rush team than NE. Collins being out will be a thing, for sure. New England is a less effective defense than Pittsburgh. I think it still comes down to which QB fugs up the least. Weather may be a huge factor with LA. Don't forget that finger injury to Stafford too. In that weather, no less.
