You mean not body catchers that "bloomed" as 5th year WR's? Or air raid guys?

What’s the problem with Air Raid guys?  Not disagreeing with you, just need some education.  What am i missing?  Thanks.

Can they vote additional captains since so many of our captains are either out the season with an injury or been replaced like Bryce?

Rhetorical question:  If you are not injured, how can you remain a team captain if you have been benched for poor performance?

I think the bigger issue is/was the decision makers that made the trade and did the evaluations.

it's this guy named hank that wears a old school digital watch and velcro shoes. he's the one to blame. 

I heard rumors it was Sir Purr.  Purr mostly got it right with the Top Cats uniforms…

I don't think of game managers as JAGs at all, just very 'color inside the lines' types of players. If it's 3rd and 10 and the OC calls a play where your first read is a 5 yard route, a game manager hits his receiver and then jogs to the sideline for the punt. A gunslinger finds a way to force a first down (or interception).

Great point about ‘color inside the lines’.  Truth be told, I think most HC’s prefer the game manager to the gunslinger.  A gunslinger is more prone to go ‘off script’.

He deserves and needs another full offseason to at least get the train back on the tracks, but man-o-man Im tired of waiting while the team has fumbled the past 6 years......NOW hes must deal with BY, honestly add another 2 FULL seasons to wash away that sink. I do see hes putting in LOADS of work and trying his best, wish I had a better frame of mind.

Straight-up.

Thielen is a warm security blanket for any Panther QB.  He catches the ball when thrown to him and moves the chains.  When it’s third and 7, he’s money good.

Him sucking isn't a new development 

Yes, but it is a completely new, novel justification for his sucking.  Try to keep up.

How do you give peak performance without believing in yourself first?

 

You think a low self-esteem person will perform at peak performance on the job?

Maybe go back and re-read (very slowly) what I wrote?

Rayzor you sound crazy bro. You are nothing if you don't believe you are something.

 

People commit suicide every day because they don't believe in themselves. That's how you develop depression bro.

 

We can agree to disagree on this. I feel totally opposite. Everything starts with you believing in yourself. Im not a business owner if I didn't believe in myself. Working for other people and having to work and clock out on their time motivated me become my own boss. I will never convince others to believe in me because quite frankly I don't give a poo. Im self made fug what others think of me.

 

That's just me.

Believing in yourself falls in the category of ‘necessary but not sufficient’.  Eventually your performance must convince others…

Fake but true…

David Tepper releases a brief statement to the press after Bryce Young is benched:

You think he's crying in Nicole Teppers lap right now? 

Bryce or David?

Bryce continues to start (and self destruct) until Tepper reaches peak embarrassment.  When peak embarrassment is greater then Tepper’s ego, then and only then will Bryce be benched.  

There are parallels in the corporate world; the inability to admit you were wrong.  Seen it before.

Imagine walking in a room with Stroud/AR/Levis/Bryce and leaving that room thinking the small midget is the right guy to lead your franchise.

 

Tepper is a fuggin joke!

Is it time or do we have to wait for the game after the bye week?

Another poster mentioned lackadaisical; that about sums it up.  The overall lack of effort or enthusiasm was breath taking.  

There was improvement in the Oline but, not much else to write home about.  It will be a long season so, we’ll get to see who wants to play and who wants to just cash a check.

Didn’t someone in the front office mention ‘dawg’?
