Captain Morgan

good stuff, thanks so much. Starting to feel better about Brown...I saw some clips on twitter that looked, as you say, almost elite.

Bill Voth @PanthersBill · 1m Panthers now 2/11 on third down. Giants are 3/13.

Field Yates @FieldYates · 3m Bucs WR Mike Evans and Saints CB Marshon Lattimore were both ejected after a brawl on the field.

Ari Meirov @MySportsUpdate #Saints QB Jameis Winston is playing today with 4 fractures in his back, per @JayGlazer , and he's in a lot of pain. There is no risk of further damage and he's wearing pads to protect the area.

Joe Person @josephperson · 2m Time to give Rashard Higgins a shot. That's two drops by Shi Smith.

maybe our O is figuring things out

AR dropped a long bomb in the hands of a wide open receiver who I think they said was a rookie, and he looked at the sideline with a "you know who would have caught that?" look. I think this is his last season as a Packer.

I love that guy! whoever he is

who is our fg kicker again?

is that 4 or 5 deflections? in the first half with 12 to go??

Josh!!

good to see the thread alive and well...I announced in the last Game Menu thread I was retiring from doing it...and was hoping someone else would pick up the tradition. During my 5 or so years of doing it, the Panthers have been ass. Hoping a change will bring us some better karma...will still post though

He retired after the last game last year. Hopefully someone will take over the tradition

Dominate the foe!

Mary Kay Cabot @MaryKayCabot · 2h #Browns have placed CB Greedy Williams (hamstring) on IR, where he must remain for at least four games Ellis L. Williams @BookofEllis One of the Browns top 3 CBs will not play Sunday

if there truly is a problem between our coaches and TMJ we might be about to find out. We are missing a lot of picks in the next couple of drafts, I hope we can find a player to trade if it happen.

this is so funny. I check our division foes boards daily except for Tampa. They would only have 2 or 3 posts a day...until they got Brady...then it was 100% "We're the best team in football!" delivered with arrogance from an unknown destination....one of the funniest things I've ever seen. talk about zero to 60, and when Brady leaves, it'll be a screeching stop with brakes locked....and will stay that way.

Garret and Clowney are big concerns, particularly with a rookie LT

Jeremy usually slams the door on the nattering nabobs of negativism on the first game day.

and might as well add in CBS All NFL South Team Offensive skill positions QB: Tom Brady (TB) RB: Christian McCaffrey (CAR) WR: Mike Evans (TB), Chris Godwin (TB), D.J. Moore (CAR) TE: Kyle Pitts (ATL) FLEX: Alvin Kamara (NO) Perhaps the easiest quarterback selection of this entire exercise was Brady over the likes of Marcus Mariota, Jameis Winston, and Baker Mayfield. If CMC can just stay on the field, he is going to be the most productive running back in the NFL. We know that based on his history. The injuries he's suffered are not of the type that should be career-changing, so we're betting on his finally getting back to himself. Offensive line OT: Tristan Wirfs (TB), Ryan Ramczyk (NO) G: Shaq Mason (TB), Chris Lindstrom (ATL) Bradley Bozeman (CAR) Defensive front EDGE: Brian Burns (CAR), Cameron Jordan (NO) IDL: Vita Vea (TB), Grady Jarrett (ATL) LB: Lavonte David (TB), Demario Davis (NO) FLEX: Shaquil Barrett (TB) We were very aggressive in pushing a breakout season from Burns a year ago, and we got it. He matched his 2020 sack total with nine, but made more plays in the backfield, increased his pressure rate, and got himself to the Pro Bowl. He's an ascending player and should have another excellent year. Defensive backfield CB: A.J. Terrell (ATL), Marshon Lattimore (NO), Jaycee Horn (CAR) SAF: Antoine Winfield Jr. (TB), Jeremy Chinn (CAR) https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/2022-nfl-mvp-odds-picks-justin-herbert-josh-allen-best-bets-plus-more-staff-award-picks/

Carolina Panthers (2021 record: 5-12) Ceiling: 9-8, playoff berth Acquiring Baker Mayfield was the best move Carolina could make in order to have a chance at the postseason. The Panthers did have the the No. 2-ranked defense in 2021 -- and that was without Jaycee Horn the majority of the season. Carolina had horrible quarterback play with Sam Darnold and Cam Newton, which impeded its ability to compete for wins late in the season. Mayfield doesn't need to be playing at a Pro Bowl level, but has to manage the game and make the crucial throws. A healthy Christian McCaffrey will help as well as Carolina was 4-3 when McCaffrey played last season. The NFC South isn't a daunting gauntlet as in previous seasons. There's an opportunity for Carolina to steal some wins and go to the playoffs. Floor: 6-11, miss playoffs The Panthers could still have McCaffrey miss significant time (he has only played in 10 games over the last two years), really hindering what Carolina wants to do with its offense. That also makes Mayfield's job more difficult in a make-or-break year as a starting quarterback. Yetur Gross-Matos will have to step up with the departure of Haason Reddick and Ikem Ekwonu has to figure out how to pass protect at the next level. The offensive line needs to be better (on paper the unit is better) than 2021 or Mayfield will be running for his life. A significant injury to Mayfield derails Carolina's playoff chances. https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/ceiling-and-floor-for-all-32-nfl-teams-bills-chiefs-bengals-bucs-packers-looking-to-dethrone-rams/
