My question is: Why were there only 5 kicks for the entire practice?

Luv this! When I first watched RA after he signed as a Panther, I thought he was too small and would get injured too soon. I was wrong. He's a tough dude with deceptive speed and great football IQ. He's not the clean cut image many look for but he's a Panther...

Where was mine? I only spoke facts. Running an effective play during preseason games doesn't mean you're showing your entire hand, I'd settle for 1/2 a finger. My point is: running a play that moves the ball and or scores in the redzone during preseason is checking if it worked against other defenses other than ours. This is one the basic purposes of preseason games. A perfect time to try a play or two you like. Our redzone execution was terrible in 2020.

Maybe you should view our kicking situation through the same eyes and stop overreacting. It's preseason and you don't believe in showing our hand...

Teddy Bridgewater received mixed reviews about our goalline practices. I can't say that I didn't believe him, as much as it was hard to believe it was true. But 2 games in after that statement...well you watched them too...

Obviously Sam Darnold's decision making, execution and accuracy. Redzone play calling and it's execution. Running game, young WR's and Defense...

I'm looking to see what we do inside the redzone...

All true but I have to believe that getting a young QB with NFL experience blends competing while building better than a rookie QB draft pick would, immediately at least. I can't lie though, I thought there was a chance we'd still draft Fields.

I really liked Fields as a draft option for us. I believe that he could turn into a very good QB in the NFL. I also believe that our coaching staff believed that as well. I think they decided to go with Darnold because of his NFL experience and age. To be honest, it's a gamble either way, but I can't say that logic isn't in there decision and I'm not against it. I'm giving our coaching staff my full support through the ups and downs...

What are you seeing that makes you think they are?

Fitterer/Rhule is nothing like Hurney/Rivera...

Everything should look great at this point and I'm glad it does. It seems like Terrance Marshall is the off-season crush this year. I vote he's better than the previous off-season crushes...

Brady's accurate but I don't think he's that accurate...

This is not the Carolina Panthers of old!

That's not as simple as 12345...

It can't be Teddy because he's not on the team...

WOW, that's high for a RT isn't it?

Happy Father's Day...

I wouldn't expect anything less from Ron Rivera. Luke Kuechly was the best Linebacker that Ron has ever coached and one of the best to Ever play the game.

The best WR in Panthers history...

True and at least for me, there's typically hope this time of the year as well.

And I'd still immediately take Rule over Rivera...

I believe it coaching staff is competent enough to use him in ways that benefits the team based off his skill sets and the defensive formation.

Great read and great info on the players. Me thinks the Panthers are on the way up...
