You know I used to think that too but there might be something to him :

He also has that "it" factor. Cool under pressure, get his teammates to rally.  I hope he can recover from the injury. 

Either way I think it's one of those things that's more interesting to watch from a distance than to see close up

FYI: This is the guy we chose Greg Little over

Made me laugh.  This troll wants to talk about being current and he has Cam in his username. 

He's not a troll.

You and he clearly have very different views but I wouldn't put that label on either of you.

It really seems like Fitt is cleaning up Rhule's messes

Bingo

Pretty cool for him...

If this guy and Tuttle are our starting DEs, Bell is our staring S

On offense, Miles Sanders starts at RB, Bozeman starts at C, and Hurst starts at TE.

We have not added a WR or two, and Fitterer has already upgraded 6/22 positions.  Once he signs a WR and we draft a QB, in one year we will have upgraded 8/22 starting positions.   That is over 36% of the starters.  In addition, you put Burns and Chinn in position to be more effective.

Tuttle is the nose tackle 

Brown will be playing one of the DE spots.

Yeah I saw David Newton mention it. He really isn’t a good source. Can you confirm someone else acknowledging it ?

Darin Gantt said it.

Who are you trying to kid?  It's not even close to reasonable.

5 games, 5 Super Bowls!

Anything less should result in a house cleaning at Panthers HQ by the end of this year!

That reminds me of Jerome Bettis' famous stat line...

5 carries, -1 yards, 3 touchdowns

After giving up a league-high 40 sacks and posting the 56th-best pass block win rate as an offensive tackle (84.5%) from 2019 to 2021, Taylor gave up only six sacks and finished 37th in pass block win rate among offensive tackles (88.8%) this past season.

Looks like he had a decent season, but struggled before that. Regardless he made Brown expendable… 

They gave him a contract for four years, 80 million.

He'd best not struggle now

Just now, ForJimmy said:

Wait who did the Chiefs get? I’m having trouble keeping up!!

Jawaan Taylor from the Jags.

I don't know for sure if that's an upgrade but that's who they got.

I'm going to take Hubbards 4.9 over Blackshears 3.3 any day 

Blackshear also does returns and can actually catch a pass.

They sure did get rid of all our previous QBs in a hurry lol minus Corrall 

He likely would have been out of the league in 2020 if Rhule hadn't signed him here.

Hell, he was on the verge of being released last offseason before Donald got hurt. Then Mayfield got hurt and he made the most of his opportunity.

Even with that though, the chances of him sticking around post-Rhule were always slim.

Never let your great LT become a FA…

They never officially released him.

4 minutes ago, ForJimmy said:

Sanders, Hubbard (I think he is a decent 2nd back), and probably a mid/late draft pick. All should have a nice OL to run behind.

I'd keep Sanders, Foreman and Blackshear myself.

Maybe a fourth guy on the practice squad.

Double Trouble Redux? And people thought Marty had left the building.

Duce Staley talked in his presser about needing "a stable" of runningbacks these days to keep the wear and tear down on the individual backs.
