  1. Yeah I mean I don’t necessarily have a strong opinion one way or the other cause I don’t pretend to have the ability or means to have evaluated a DB’s performance throughout an entire game (considering most of his match-ups were not even on screen lol) but I’m just sharing what PFF thinks as a data point.
  2. https://www.pff.com/news/nfl-week-8-game-recap-atlanta-falcons-37-carolina-panthers-34 And IIRC, the Rams game where Donte Jackson got a pick-six, he still had one of the lowest PFF grades in the game, like in the 40-50 range. So PFF clearly thought highly of CJ's performance beyond just the interception.
  3. Marvin McNutt is 6’4 and still only 33 years old. Fitterer better get on that phone ASAP!
  4. PJ at the very least proved the last couple weeks that he belongs on an NFL roster, contrary to popular belief that he’s only here because of Rhule favoritism.
  5. As a Christian McCaffrey fan….tasy football owner, I’m ecstatic that we traded him to a team that can maximize his talent.
  6. Seems like genuinely a good trade for both parties.
  7. Which is an odd thing to say about a team with a 2nd year “generational talent” 1st overall QB.
  8. Your post sounded so goofy that I just wasted 10 minutes of my life scrolling through the Falcons’ message board to confirm that you’re talking out of your ass lol. Their fans definitely want to win and they’re a lot more complimentary of our team than 99% of this board. You can always tell who watches too much Real Housewives cause they experience everything through the lens of a soap opera.
  9. We lost to the Giants by 3 in NY back when we were under Rhule and had an awful Baker under center. That’s the team that’s supposedly gonna destroy us in the first round of the playoffs? The Panthers team that showed up last Sunday against the Bucs is night and day different from that team that lost by 3 to the Giants in Week 2. We just have to wait and see if that game was a fluke or if we might actually have made strides.
  10. On a somewhat related note: Ja’Marr Chase is expected to be out 4-6 weeks with a hip injury and the Bengals just so happen to be our opponent next week. If Horn comes back and locks down Higgins, then I suddenly feel a lot better about our chances to contain that Bengals offense.
  11. Tbh I didn't watch the interview where he gave this quote, I'm just going off of the article that I linked. The article makes no mention of Darnold and clearly attributes this quote to Wilks talking about Horn, unless the author of the article made a mistake.
  12. I'm not inclined to go that far, but I did find Wilks' response interesting about Horn this week. Usually I roll my eyes at people who read too much into coaches' answers and maybe I'm doing that here, but Wilks almost seems annoyed? Or a bit dubious? He thought Horn was on track and "for whatever reason" he made that decision himself not to play. I'm often wondering when a player sits due to injury, if that decision comes from the player himself or if it's a coaching/medical decision not to clear him to play. This one sounds entirely like Horn was cleared but decided for himself to sit out...which, if he's legitimately in that bad of shape, I would rather he be cautious instead of risking exacerbating the injury. But it just sounds like Wilks' perception of the injury seems somewhat at odds with Horn. There are players like Cam, Thomas Davis, and Jonathan Stewart who are tough as nails and almost beg coaches to let them play despite constantly dealing with lingering injuries, so I dunno I'll give Horn the benefit of the doubt but it's still a little disappointing. https://www.charlotteobserver.com/sports/nfl/carolina-panthers/article267759257.html
  13. The guy is built like a tank for a cornerback and his two injuries are completely unrelated so you gotta hope these are just flukes rather than a testament to his fragility. But definitely frustrating as a fan who wants to see our young exciting corner on the field.
  14. The pocket was even still pretty clean 5 seconds in lol, PJ bailed a bit prematurely.
  15. He's not ignoring them, he just legit is barely on here lol.
  16. Despite being wide open, he also doesn't even turn to look for the pass until PJ is already on his 2nd or 3rd read lol.
  17. The current one thought Terrell McClain was gonna be an All-Pro #NeverForget
  18. You guys annoyed by the prospect of us taking first place in the division on Sunday? I'll take a playoff spot all day, even if we limp in with like an 8-9 record.
  19. I'd rather you buy the Panthers from Tepper and then apply the Green Bay Packers model to the franchise. We know you're good for it, moneybags.
  20. Assuming Corbett and BC legitimately had poor showings (big asterisk with PFF): it kinda makes sense considering they had a new Center playing beside them for the first time this season. Might have just been some typical miscommunications/miscues which are natural when you haven't had the time to gel with the new guy next to you. I'd expect them to bounce back in the coming weeks.
  21. Well, I agree with that lol but that’s not really the trade-off. We’re talking Fields vs. Horn. More or less a JAG with an extremely high ceiling who is showing signs of improvement as of late, vs. a corner playing at an All-Pro level who has struggled to see the field. You can make a case for either; it’ll come down to whether Fields continues progressing and if Horn becomes one of those disappointing perennially injured all-world talents.
  22. It’s quite reasonable to hold the opinion that Fields was put into a bad situation that has seriously hindered his chances for success. But anyone saying he’s been impressive, throwing out the term “franchise QB”, declaring that we made a huge mistake passing him over, etc. are just not operating in reality. Objectively speaking, he has been at the bottom of nearly every QB metric. He seems to be trending in the right direction though. He’ll for sure be an exciting player if he can put it all together.
  23. Why did he use a picture of Christian McCaffrey?
  24. “We’ve won 16 games in 3.5 seasons and this guy wants to cradle DJ Moore’s balls in his mouth!” -That’s the kind of “football related discussions” you’re bragging about contributing to these boards that you expect grown adults to engage with. Go nip at someone else’s ankles, you child. Lil’ Chihuahua Frank molded from the discussion boards of Facebook.
