  1. See my earlier note. (or just see that last touchdown)
  2. General observation: This is as well coached a game as I've seen in a while.
  3. Being pass heavy early means Foreman and the others are fresh. Might see 'em start running over some people now.
  4. Playcalling today seem a tad pass heavy to anyone else or is it just me?
  5. Sorry to hear. Condolences to you and your family
  6. When it comes to the question, "how long is the average star NFL player's career", the accurate answer has long been "about 1 year too long". I won't exactly be surprised if Brady stretches that answer even farther.
  7. I'm not a Corral booster, but it is fair to point out that some of the same folks saying we need to withhold judgment on Willis after multiple games played and started have already conclusively written off Corral based on a few series in preseason.
  8. I don't really think Wilks is a dominant enough defensive coach that we can afford to wait for an inexperienced play caller to get up to speed. I'd much rather have somebody like Reich.
  9. Side Note: Speculation of a Brady-McDaniels reunion in Vegas has begun. (and honestly, it might not be such a bad idea)
  10. Full context of Breer's answer below. Honestly, Johnson's name is just kind of a throw in at the end. From Pete Crespo (@Petedelaware1): Hey Albert, Wilks has the @Panthers playing very competitive ball with limited production from the QB spot. Does he have a real chance to keep this job? Do you see them address the QB in FA since they are a team that can win now, or grab a new franchise QB in the draft? Pete, I’m starting to think Wilks has a very legitimate chance to keep the Panthers’ job, build a staff of his own and get a real shot this time at being an NFL head coach. Owner David Tepper is well aware of the job that Wilks has done in uniting the locker room and building a real identity for the team—Carolina’s run game has emerged as one of the NFL’s best over the past two months, and did it after Christian McCaffrey was traded to the 49ers. And the defense was already really good. The other thing here is the Panthers—when they fired Matt Rhule—resisted the urge to deal off veterans ahead of the trade deadline. They believed the coaching job there could be sold as one that, with core guys such as DE Brian Burns, CB Jaycee Horn, DT Derrick Brown, WR D.J. Moore and OT Ickey Ekwonu on hand, really is just a quarterback away. So if you feel that way, and you see what Wilks is doing, having won three of four and four of seven, wouldn't it make sense to keep him? I personally think it would, and I’m starting to think Tepper is seriously considering it, too. I think with some tweaks—one could be bringing someone such as Eagles quarterbacks coach Brian Johnson aboard to help run the offense—Wilks could really have the Panthers hitting the ground running in 2023.
  11. That may have changed now. He has a no trade clause though so he controls where he goes from here.
  12. Not really. He fired nearly everybody else except Siravo and Johnson.
