Said those exact three words the day I won an argument with my teenage stepdaughter. ("miracles can happen" would probably have worked just as well)
-
That's the big debate these days. Super athlete quarterbacks can absolutely dominate at the college level, but if you're going to succeed at the pro level (and do so long-term) you need a little something more. In that department, Young has a lot more.
-
From a few days ago, a cool story (not the "bro" kind)
-
Had honestly forgotten he was still in the league...
-
I didn't read this one Okay, maybe I did...
-
And/or the day we hired the guy who hired Reich...someone who I was assured on several occasions should have been fired along with Rhule
-
Oy Alternate Suggestion: Try looking up the definition of irony.

Let's just say I feel a lot better about Bryce Young being coached by Josh McCown and Thomas Brown than I would if his development were in the hands of Matt Patricia and Joe Judge.
-
The guy most would acknowledge as the greatest quarterback in NFL history dropped to the sixth round. Meanwhile, one of the most highly touted college quarterbacks of his day went #2 overall and became a huge bust. (and for the record, both were massive douchebags so personality doesn't necessarily predict success) You started off this discussion by saying you were glad we "dodged a bullet". You've also thrown in statements about knowing that Levis will be a bust because of what you've seen already. I pointed out that we don't know that, something which you accepted at first. Why you're mad about it now I have no idea. Keep in mind there are plenty of people who "know" that Bryce Young isn't gonna last long because he's too small and so he's likely going to get hurt. Are those people being bold or just accepting the probabilities in their predictions?
-
And then there's this... Imagine how differently that could have gone. The Eagles owe Wilson a major "thank you" for nixing that transaction. He likely saved them from themselves.
-
Meanwhile, at the other end of the Chiefs spectrum... Might be the weirdest story in the league right now.
-
It's a great comparison.
-
Because it's what we believed was the right thing to do. How hard is it to understand the difference between making a prediction about what we think will happen and acting like we know what will? Yet somehow you've got it turned around to where acting like we know exactly what's going to happen is somehow courageous but admitting we don't know the future is douchey. Do you actually hear how that sounds?
-
You sure you got the right guy, there? I spent a lot more time this offseason debating between Bryce Young and CJ Stroud than I did Richardson because once we moved to #1, I never really took the idea of us picking Richardson seriously. Ended up being on the wrong side of the Stroud vs Young debate of course, but I wouldn't say I'm all that broken up about it.

LowTemp Stadium probably would've worked too The concept certainly looks nicer than The Sphincter Dome. (also known as LowIQ stadium)
-
Former owner Lamar Hunt's wife, Clark's mom...
-
That's the hope. We have really got to protect him.
-
Yep. It'd be nice for the winning seasons to not be so...occasional
-
Also have Ed Oliver a four year extension.
-
Two Super Bowl appearances within the first twenty-five years of a team's existence is way better than a lot of teams. Consistency is kind of an issue though.

Changes to the Panthers behind the scenes staff
Mr. Scot replied to TheSpecialJuan's topic in Carolina Panthers
hereThe notion that David Tepper is a difficult person to work for isn't exactly new. Hell, even before he bought the team the general storyline surrounding him was that he was kind of a douchebag. Then when the football side of things tanked under his watch, he became... unpopular on here These days the general consensus is that he's taken his hands off the football side of things and left it to capable people. If the results turn out as we hope, that'll be a vast improvement in his status . But it might not necessarily make him any less of a douchebag or a difficult person to work for. -
Plus he plays for us (you don't necessarily get a lot of attention that way)
-
At this point in time, who feels like we lost this trade?
Mr. Scot replied to WarPanthers89's topic in Carolina Panthers
Pretty much, though I've been told it's cowardice to not say that you know exactly how everything's going to play out right now -
Great point
-
Damn, that's impressive. Kid's definitely got the mental side of things under control. If he can even be just half decent in the physical realm, he could have a really long and successful career. I'd add the word "poise" is what I always used to hear they were looking for during the swimsuit portion of the Miss Whatever pageants. When guys watch those though, I don't really think too many of them turn to each other and say "Man, she's got some nice poise"
